    I have to be honest, this is a major step down from the last game you made.

    The Other Side seemed so well planned out, with each corner having some meaning or purpose, and here it seems you got caught up in what the last one had, and then tried to replicate it while changing it.

    In doing so you sacrificed a lot of actual map length and fun factor.

    Also, the finale is very bittersweet for me. It really looks like you ran out of ideas and decided to turn the rest of Foundry into a Warthog romp. On the up side, the (drastic) change in pace requires both humans and zombies both to reorganize their tactics to ensure the other's demise. A lot could have been improved on, but again I dunno how your budget constraints are looking. Rubble and obstructions could have been added to make the open a little less... well, open.

    Some good things about this map are that I like the multiple boss zombies (essentially mini-boss/main boss) and the focus on extremely close quarters spaces (at least the first part). Atmosphere like that greatly adds to paranoia and reduces mobility in the event of attack forcing an almost straightforward attack from both parties.

    When I look at this map compared to the other I reviewed, it definitely disappoints. It's by no means awful, but a common disorder in sequels is that they are never better than the original.

    Hence, why the [thread=51424]Manifest[/thread] series simply halted at its first part, [thread=51424]Help's on the way, right?[/thread]

    Two bosses? I play this all the time and I'm sure there is only one. Anyway, I'm sure you will be pleased with the new updated gametype that he will release pretty soon. It makes it alot more balanced and changes the whole idea of the map gameplay almost.

    Well I look forward to it but I almost always had a hammer zombie come at me in the sewer area and the open finale-ish area.
