?

Do you think the infection gametype is good, or goes good with the map?

  1. Absolutly, this goes really well with the map.

    Download Map: Dead Man's Road
    Download gametype: Rise of the Undead

    Our HALOween map is here! And just in time too. This is my newest map, and my best infection map I think I have ever made. This is Dead Man's Road, a road that is over run by the undead. It is a very balanced infection game I think and it does not give one side more than the other, however zombies are fairly stronger than the humans. Because of this factor, the last man becomes i bit stronger. Meaning at the beginning the humans must work together in order to survive, but the last man is a bit stronger and must survive on his own. There is a trap in the maze so I would suggest keeping a keen eye...

    Rise of the Undead is the custom infection gametype that I have made for this map, I think it goes well with it. I have tried to make this map inescapable as best I could. I think it has been done pretty well. The zombies cannot jump high, nor can last man or humans. Zombies can pick up weapons, so im hoping you all will like this ability as much as I do. Zombies also have radar and humans do not. Ambush, tactics, and accuracy is key to survival on this map.

    Weapons/Equipment/Vehicles (Wepsand Equip. all have low ammo and long respawns, whereas vehicles do not respawn. Keep this in mind.)
    Many BR's
    3 AR's
    2 Shotguns
    4 SMG's
    3 Magnums
    1 Needler
    2 Deployable Covers
    1 Radar Jammer
    1 Trip Mine
    1 Bubble Shield
    3 Frags
    3-4 Plasmas
    1 Warthog
    1 Mongoose

    And now on to the pics:

    Down at the beggining of the road is where the humans spawn.

    Here if u turn left from this pic this is where the zombies spawn (I couldnt get past the shield doors, the other places are blocked off.)
    [​IMG]

    This is the area where the two meet. The humans must hold out for 2 mins and 30 secs until the door to the maze opens(half is open now.)

    Part of the maze

    End of the maze

    The "Zombie House" where the is not much ammo. (eventually you will have to go back though the maze.)

    Wow. I'm not that much into infection, but you brought me back to the infection world. The last infection maps havent been that good at all, and I'm glad to see that this is very clean and well interlocked. 4.5/5 great job!

    I really appreciate that someone took the time to make an infection map that isn't "Run to the Fort and hold out forever with your unlimited flamethrower and shotguns". Maps like these are the zombie maps that can actually give you a pit of a scare. I love it when your walking, hear something, look back and the guy that was taking the back is dead. Hear something in the direction you were going, turn back around and your friend that was in front of you is dead, and you see no sign of a zombie. That's when it freaks you out.

    Overall, I will download this on the weekend and play.
    5/5 just for making a infection game where you have to wander, rather than hold a position.

    thx, it is alot like predator in a sense but not the 1 shot 1 kill thing and the zombies are visible. the humans dont need to work that hard but they do if there is like 5 zombies and 4 humans.

    Awesome map Fr1ct10n, it looks forged very well. Its going to be a tough competition, since my infection is a totally different style. Hopefully the game play for your map, will be as fun as it looks :]

    You said there was a warthog and mongoose. Where? The warthog can be a determining factor in infection, like complete pwnzoring killionaires in a turret.

    I like this. Looks suspiciously like an Omega Journey map though...
    Good idea with the shield door/grav lift combo to stop spawn killing.

    My Idea ;) I saw it in a couple other maps, and thought it needed it. This is not an Omega Journey, you actually need skill to play this ;)

    Everybody download this map. It is sick. I'm not just saying this cuz i helped make it.

    It plays amazingly. With its warthog and what not. Its one of the very few map that are great but include not much interlocking.

    looks a bit too open, but i might be wrong. the construction is a bit sloppy as well. gameplay seems fun but there would be uber cammping and wheres the adrenelen (cant spell 4 life!)in that? 3.5/5

    Hey, I made it too! Lol. I don't like when people don't notice that two people made it. However for the competition, I'm being so kind as to allow xFr1ct10nx be awarded with the delicious points of Microsoft, er.. Microsoft Points... Because it WAS his idea, I just made some help, and came up with the idea of having "Holdout Rooms", and a maze. However Homer (Bluejayfan94) made the maze more difficult than my Rough Draft one.. Anyway glad to see you posted it up, Friction. I hope that we at least get 2nd or 3rd place, I dunno about 1st, because that's gonna be tough, we got StreetSoccer going against us.. Also, Good Luck, StreetSoccer!!

    Sincerely,
    FlipStik
