    Near Beginning

    A hide out built near the start of the infection before bunkers were playing a role in fighting the zombies.
    Map
    Game type
    Infection breaks out and human kind falls apart in days. The left overs have no choice but to hide. This is of course before the idea of bunkers came about to help fight the zombies as a desperate attempt to keep humans away from extinction. How ever these hide outs are not well equipped to fight hordes of zombies, thus working together might be the best way to live every day in these huge hide outs across the world.

    This hide out was made in one of the small back spaces of foundry and uses a lot of map geometry to make and form the building. Inside this beast has some very cool layouts, ideas and designs. The map also has claustrophobic rooms, halls, areas that really give the game play that scary feeling that infection should always have. The map is fairly big inside and houses a nice amount of guns.

    So far with the testing, I found that this map is just one of those hide and run games, more than a hunt them down and shot them up game, which i am completely fine with because most of my games before was like that any way. So if you like infection games where u have to make strategy and plans with your friends to survive each round, than this is the game just for you. Perfect for those kind of people who love watching zombies walk underneath you and kill someone else while you do absolutely nothing about it lols.

    The game type is what every you want to play with, how ever it works best with the game type i have provided for you up top. The game provided consists of zombies having shields and humans starting with assault rifles.

    The game works with any size party and can fit with up to 4 starting zombies (25%). So if you play a zombies game that has weaker zombies, then you should make the starting zombies count a bit more than one.

    No vehicles and one machine gun turret with guns ranging from human to Covent. Limited ammo for the humans, and normal speed for all players.
    Pictures continue on next post.
    As for the description, I'm all done :)
    Thank you and please download!

    I'm a little confused why players can go out of the "map". I mean why should you allow players to go on the roof and stuff. At least block off the roof. But, other than that the map looks freakin' awesome. I mean I praise you for using the most difficult part of Foundry to make this and it paid off. i love the small tunnels that would definitely create some suspenseful gameplay. I'm not sure how balanced the gameplay is yet but everything looks clean and great aesthetically and I like how unique it is. Nice job Roadkill!

    Yes i know about the outside thing because it made me nervous before i got testing on it. I mean i love roof tops, and idk what a roof top would be if it had a roof on top of it, If you know what i mean. So really i took a risk, and i cant say its perfect cus i have not played it enough, but as far as the testing goes, it turned out real good! Thx for the comment =)

    yeah I'm in a picture :) lol

    anyways I really like how you set up the theme of the map. it's a game were you actually run from the zombies. The gameplay was exciting especially how you can hide in so many spots! It really flows with the game. great map and gametype.

    It was really fun to test, glad I joined last minute (I iz in pictures 9 + 13) . As said above somewhere, it's verry cool how you created the map in one of the harder areas to forge on in foundry. The house itself was gigantic, with a few larger rooms branching out into clostrophobic hallways and air vent type things. There were some rooms I didn't even know about untill the last round. Nice Job.

    Well, I typed out a nice reply, but I lost it, then I did it again, and I lost that one as well. I hate slow, old computers!

    The map is a lot of fun, especially when I play it nearly 8 times in a row :). The availability of the entire main floor of floundery detracts from the games focus though, especially when three humans with snipers camp out in the far corner :), but then again, it is relatively impossible to survive out there long-term, so needless to say, the map isn't broken in any way. It would just be nicer if they didn't have all that empty space to mongoose around in :p. If only foddery had the resources to make both an awesome bunker thing and a giant wall.

    Im so sweet. I got negetive 15 kills! But as for going out of the map, I did it almost everytime and died very quickly. As for everything else, I love how there is a diverse wepon list.
