    I played this map yesterday and I gotta say despite it not being the best looking map, it plays AMAZINGLY. I love the idea of having to barricade yourself and your true enemy being the ammo counter. Reminds me of when I used to play zombie mod on CSS. I think you should make a V2 of the gametype where the zombies have 200% gravity, I set it like that and it was far more intense having the zombies try to break through your barricade while you desperately keep trying to repair it.

    Overall I think this is a solid 4/5

    Well, some people are suggesting zombies be able to jump roofs, and some are suggesting not being able to jump barricades. I think I'll keep what I've got and you guys can change the gravity to your liking.

    For this other gametype I'm making for the map, I'm focusing on longterm survival. I'll give the zombies more health, but you can hit 3 times before actually zombifying. "Health packs" would appear in the middle of town every 3 minutes, and if you wanted healing you'd have to risk the streets.

    What would you use for a "heath pack"? If you use over sheilds the zombies could grap them along with anything else. Also, try making the zombies do 50% damage, and humans have 150% heatlth.

    I have a custom powerup that puts on shield recharge 200% for 10 seconds (also applies to health) If the zombies get them it doesn't really help, just hinders the humans. And seeing as you'd probably only risk going outside if you were low in health, you're screwed if the zombie gets it before you do.

    And I've got percentages that make sure the zombies dies after more hits, and that you can't really kill yourself, as well as zombies killing you in 3 hits.

    Wouldn't regenerators be far easier and zombie-proof?

    Hm... that's a possibility. Only problem is that it wouldn't recover the body health portion, which is about 1/3 your total health.

    this is so well planned out and while it doesn't have geomerging and interlocking left and right plays remarkably well. i like that roof jumping is difficult because it helps gameplay. the arial aspect is still there but its not like its raining zombies. ps that video reminds me of a horror movie.

    Nice map, though I would like to see some variety in the interior of buidings. Also roof access or perhaps a second story would be nice. Overall 3.5/5.

    It's not evident there but I did interlock the walls WHERE NEEDED. I'm not going to interlock just for the sake of interlocking. If you want examples of that look at the wall.

    Second floors just aren't happening, and giving humans access to the roofs is the complete opposite of what is intended.

    wow. great map. this is unlike the other ripoff city maps. you have my download. my only suggestion would be you might want to make another version where nothing respawns so the humans would have to hurry up and get weapons before others. it would also make it more real.

    I could see a second floor work pretty well, as long as you make it a partially destroyed building with many extra ways for zombies to get in.

    I mean constructionwise, I have nothing. 0$ in my budget (It's not infinity money). Even If i did have money, I have only single open boxes for a 2nd floor. Those wouldn't work well, and adding in a way to access it would also be hard.

    If this alleged forge update comes through, and has everything plus a whole chicken, I'll would pour so much time into making this map over again. I'd have even more buildings, with way more variety in them. But, of course, I'd put just as much effort into capturing the gameplay element in this map, but x100.

    And what do you mean, put the weapons to never respawn? You obviously haven't played a game of it, because that's what I did.

    This looks extremely fun. Love a good city. You should set this up for team slayer. Love street warfare.

    I think its an amazing and great idea. Its awesome and fun. Everyone on forge hub rates maps on how they look instead of how they play which I think is very ignorant.

    Hm... I would think slayer on this map would be Campsville, with only 1 way into all the buildings.

    At first after seeing this map I though "just another infection map" and closed the page. Then, earlier today I was invited to a custom game. When I joined I found myself in this map. After playing a few rounds I was instantly hooked.

    This map was a blast to play, from spending those 2 precious minutes to search the city and lock myself in a building to being the last man standing huddled in a corner until I found myself out of ammo.

    Oh yea about the video: That was amazing, like something otu of a horror film. I can imagine you screaming "Come on! you can make it" then all of the sudden , SWHOOSH! New zombie.

    This is a definate download for any infection lover.

    I'm glad you found it to be a great map after playing it. I knew the aesthetics weren't much so I tried to hook people in with the post.
