Favorite Map

sgt.waffles

hmmm, my favorite map for ns_ gametype would have to be, ns_origin because the map really reminds me of Alien 3 where there on the penal colony. And my favorite map for co_ gametype is definitely co_ulysses mainly because it reminds me of the Nostromo from Alien, especially with that coolant area.

I (obviously) love the parts of Nancy I worked on... but I still despise the areas I didn't work on because they're kinda badly clipped by comparison IMHO. I worked for so many hours tweaking and testing the clipping on my areas... then I found out nobody else did any clipping at all. =-.-=

And the pipework in the roof of the western hive just doesn't work now either, it's almost entirely fall-through illusionary and easy to get stuck inside of in the current release too, which is doubly sad after I (again) worked for so many hours on getting it problem-free. :-/

I like the ns_ gametype map more than the co_gametype because it feels more along the lines of a horror game than an all out DM like in co_.

Ns_hera and ns_bast. Two very atmospheric maps.

Hmm, i'll try them out.

ns_orbital_cal...great map. The old bast was pretty atmospheric as well.

Bacillus

Tanith and Origin. Somewhat creative architecture and layout, but still balanced enough. Veil is enjoyable too. The rest of the maps are all good too, although some areas are quite painful for the gameplay. Orbital cal looks very promising, but its hardly ever played on euro servers.

For the co maps, faceoff has the best game flow.

Flying-Bastard

Original bast > everything. You cant beat that atmosphere.

Otherwhise Nancy was a very fun map, it was a blast <i>losing</i> as marines in that map.

Mindmeldme

yea of all the maps I loved in the original form I have to go with bast. Best setup for new players at the time for atmosphere and things to be afraid of. Pipes bursting and the fog. Very enjoyable map.

Kouji_San

original ns_bast might not be the best gameplay wise, with it's engine hive and one exit, but other then that it ruled
original ns_hera for it was the first time I played NS and the 2 hive siege problem was bad yet fun at times when aliens successfully defended it
original ns_caged welding reigns supreme and there were doors, one might think doors don't exist anymore in the future with all the door removed from maps <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin-fix.gif" />
ns_nancy, to bad noname got named and the secret room > all
ns_mineshaft, it had the looks and atmosphere to boot.

ns_orbital_cal and co_umbra

ns_agora co_blackmesa

lots of people seem to like ns_orbital.....WHY IS IT NEVER PLAYYED!!! (theres an updated version ns_orbital_anslv2 on ansl.us but I dont know whats different in it)

Mindmeldme

I have seen a couple maps like orbital in some map votes depending on the server I am in. Strangly enough I see more siege maps voted on then NS maps I have never played on before. I do wonder why siege maps are so popular.

me too, i think there's maybe only a few good ones out there actualy... i think it's becaues of the layout, like a fort war.

JetJaguar

sure, bast might be the best map esthetically, but it's so damn bad playwise, first to tram wins, yay.....

so, best maps are; veil, eclipse, origin, tanith
