By Creep1ng De4th Recommended Players: 1v1 Recommended Gametype: Conflict Forgehub 1v1 Conflict - Round 2 (Losers Bracket) Nostromo is a tight close quarters map created on Orbital. With all the other maps in the tournament being bred on Sandbox, this map should help satisfy your needs for a change of scenery. Roughly 1/3 of Orbital has been blocked off and plenty of cover has been added, leaving a "duck and cover" type of flow to the map. The long main hall gives way to the up and down feel of the escalator and you will find plenty of long and close range weapons strewn about the hallways. Power weapons are plentiful, but limited. You will find a Sniper Rifle, Needler, and Brute Shot in your travels, but don't get comfortable with them since they are on long respawns and have very limited ammunition. So in other words your trusty BR will still be your best friend. And for the highly skilled player, try the dual Magnums. They can be more powerful than you think.

hey i found it. the link for this map in Crown of flies doesn't work. is the custom powerup part of the map. and if so, what does it do?
This looks like a very interesting map because it is in orbital. The addition of the needler and the brutesot into the map are wise desicions i think because the brute shot should work well in the corridors but the enhanced radar stops it being an overkill of camping round corners. The needler shouldn't be to overpowered aswell due to the amount of cover in the hallways. Overall a very well thought out map. One question though. Willthis map be used in the winners bracket aswell? The custom powerup i believe works much the same as the one used in MLG but slightly weaker and gives you a 3 scond invunerulbility. I am not 100% sure but it does say it all in the game settings.
CPU effects are as follows: Duration: 3 Seconds Damage Resistance: Invulnerable Shield Multiplier: 3X Overshields Shield Recharge Rate: 200% Hope that helps
In other words, its practically an h2 overshield. So if we lose this round on Penance than we play Nostromo next round? And if we win this round we will play Crown of Flies? So will that me that throughout this torney each player will only play half the maps released? So many questions.
No, I believe the H2 overshield lasted more than three seconds... this is more of a... power weapon if you time it right. Just have the guy trailing you, get it and turn around to demolish. Yes. Yes. Slight typo, but sort of. Everybody is free to download and play every map. Otherwise, the people in the brackets will only officially play a tournament match of half of the maps. EDIT: wow I completely misunderstood the "3 seconds" part, thinking the overshield disintegrated immediately after. It isn't exactly a H2 overshield, being 2x not 3x as said below.
Actually, the CPU is a 2x overshield, not 3x. A 3x OS is way too powerful for a 1v1 competition. It's practically 2 guaranteed kills. EDIT: I almost forgot to say that this is a bad ass map. I've always thought that Orbital could be made into a pretty decent 1v1 map, and Creep's done an outstanding job in making it a reality.
Yeah~ I haven´t seen the map yet but I have a question. The picture where the regenerator´s on, there is usuall the rocket and down there a hole to the hallway(right sniper) so is this hole still there or is it also blocked off that you can walk up and down on forged walls?
Looks pretty cool. Can't wait to play it. I have a question though, isn't it that the 2v2 maps are suppose to be featured like in the first tournament? Or is it because this map isn't good enough...?
Featured or nor featured, I never dreamed that anyone could make a map like this of Orbital. Good work.
