    HONEYCOOOMMMBAH!

    Where infection and honey collide
    [​IMG]

    -- Cold Storage Variant: Honeycomb --
    -- Infection Variant: Beefection --
    -- 2-16 players --
    -- no honor rules required --

    Simplified:
    People:
    - kills bees in 4 magnum shots

    Gold(yellow) Bees(zombies):
    - kill people in two sword slices
    - use bubble shields as defense

    Everyone:
    - has a great time, especialy the zombies, suprisingly!
    [​IMG]

    Advanced:
    The zombie bees are weak, are killed in four shots, if it where any less, people could kill them in one melee. The only thing they have in their defence is bubble shield, because they have a sword that kills people in two swings. Instant spawn bubbles are in for places in the map, and these areas usualy form 'hives' for the bees which is the best stratigy.

    This map has all the thrills that come along with infection, but the bubble shield forts sets this map appart. Its almost like the bubbles are chasing you sometimes.

    These bees kickass LOLOLOLLOOLRORLOLL
    [​IMG]
    here are the four highly decorated bubble shields
    [​IMG]
    Guess what happened here
    [​IMG]
    This is the bee hive (zombies spawn), people have no chance in this room.
    [​IMG]
    Bees can pick up the people's magnums, but it kills them in 17 shots, its usualy just a taunt to lure people into the bubbles if they are stupid enough.

    Have any questions? Have any new ideas? Have something to say about the shitbag who stole your couch?

    Oh, you know i saw this thing that showed how to make movable bubble sheilds. If you throw a radar jammer down, and push it against the bubble, you can move the sheild. I thought about making a game with it, but I guess since you already did, i might as well tell it to you. I like the gametype, and it deserves a 5/5. The map though is nothing special. and deserves like a 2/5.

    I know that the map isn't anything huge from forge standpoint, but it works for the game extremely well. And why would you want to alter cold storage's aesthetics? It already looks and plays great.

    And Ocean Man, the 'honeycomb' name comes from the pattern on bubble shields

    amazing gametype, this seems like something that you would have to be extremely tired to come up with, but also seems like it could become a gametype like cops and robber, a classic

    I really like the bubble shield and bees idea but not so crazy about the map, Maybe its just me but when I read honeycomb I was thinking about a honeycomb design map or maybe set inside a hive. Still it looks like alot of fun. You can co so far with this bee idea I mean 'queen bee' for some alpha zombie version of bees.

    Happy Forging!

    This looks really fun. But this seems to be more of a mini-game than an actual map. But it looks like a freakishly sweet mini-game at that so I give this a 9.3/10 and 5 stars.

    Okay, the bees (infected) are weak, but have a sword, and they hide in the bubble shields so they don't get shot by the humans. The bees can pick up the human's magnums, but it takes 17 shots to kill them with it.

    Looks fun, but I bet the bees dominate in the game. I kind of like the idea though. Original. Normally the zombies are the ones that are charging at someone at full speed, but they have to be defensive in this and then attack at the right time. Clever

    First Cold Storage map ive seen thats worth looking at so props. And the idea is very original never seen something quite like this. Maybe the only thing you could do better is add to the map more but its still awesome. Great gametype though, i could see this turning into a fun new minigame and possibly and the front page.

    i love how the zombies dont die instantly, and i thought it was really cool that you made it so the zombies have to hit a human twice to kill em

    lol you don't tattle on people like that...^^^

    anyways, i'm glad for it because now i get a chance to see this awesome map. this thing is very original and looks like a blast. I do think that you should add more structures though. make it feel multi level because after all, beehives and quite tall.

    dl link doesn't work for me, can you pm a link to file share or something
