    Delta squad did not survive their first encounter with this map, no one else has either, the infected always win in the end. No human team have reached the time limit as of now.

    I highly recommend using a sound tactical setup once inside, as people forgetting about entrances always leads to their downfall.

    This map contains no MTS (motion tracking system) as of yet, if anyone thinks it could use one please feel free to say, personally I think it would disrupt gameplay for this map.

    The Virus Strain 57 gametype for ENTIRELY constructed by Twilight Gn0me and he deserves all credit for it, I simply built the map for his gametype.

    Now what you have all been waiting for, download links!

    Wow. When I saw the title in the sidebar of ForgeHub I was like finally! I loved Lockdown and Virus Strain 57 and so did my friends. When I saw the author wasn't TwilightGNOME, I was sad. I still read it and I loved the story and how you also included Lockdown as part of your story. I saw some good things and I'm going to download it. I'll definitely be back later to write a review. I still have to clean out my maps and finish the map I'm working on now but, Iwill definitely be back.

    PS. i WILL survive

    Wow, I didn't know what to expect Kalriq, but you've done a fantastic job there. I'd love to be able to play with some high numbers to see how it plays. As already suggested, I'm going to set up a custom lobby for the mode. This truly is a fantastic contribution to the cause. My main feedback is only for a potential improvement for the weapon cache; sticking with the theme of a theatre, how about theatre boxes as ammo containers?

    Thanks for the feedback, I agree with you, the weapon cache's aren't so great, I think that if I make a V2 they will be a priority for improvement, tell me if you do get a customs lobby going, I definitely want to be a part.
    How goes posting the other maps? I can't wait to meet the final versions =)
    Again, thanks for the feedback.

    Hey Unseated, glad to see you posted a new map but no shameless group advertising? What has the world come to. Another thing, I can see how you tried to write theatrical in blood but it came out like just slopping. I admit it sounds mean but I just don't think it looks like blood. The rest of the post and images are very well done though. As for the map, V2s are always good for any map and I hope to be able to get a large party to play it soon.

    Yeah, I'll second that. Lockdown took 6 attempts to finish the map, so give some more versions a try. I will be glad to help you make adjustments to the map for a version 2. An update for the next map should be soon. I finished all my work yesterday (All 122 pages of it -_-) so I should be available for testing/releasing next map etc. Once again, grand job and I will gladly help any improvements requested. I think I'm going to put a post on zombies inc (Lol shameless group advertising) for a competition to wake things up over there. The undead sure sleep heavy.

    I don't sleep, I'm just taking a long time to crawl out of my grave. I won't be getting any more xbox live till my friends stop play Modern Warfare 2 or Halo: Reach Beta comes out. Figures the Bad Company 2 Beta releases two days after my live runs out.

    Very nice job! I just played this today with 3 other people, and it was really fun! I can't wait to play it with a bigger party. The health and weapons were very well setup, not too much and not not enough. I like how it is a bit hard to get inside in the first place, as opposed to just making the theater.
