NS2_Veil by FMPONE

My Natural Selection 2 map release. This will be playable sometime today.

Edit: Sorry was inbetween classes and didn't get to add a proper OP. This thread is a tribute to Andrew Weldon (our very own KungFuSquirrel), who is the original author of NS1_Veil and who courteously allowed me to remake his map, not to mention just being a nice guy. I think I've done a good job at doing what any remake should do, honor the original, preserve the original, and elaborate. I hope you all will enjoy the new stuff in there as well as the old.

Please feel free to message me with any gameplay complaints.

This is a lot like the direction I imagined an Eclipse/Veil re-make/sequel going if I had done it. Said it in e-mail already, but nice work! Looking forward to running around in it

Fantastic work dude! Nice lighting too!

Mazy · August 28, 2012 at 7:25 PM

General Vivi · August 28, 2012 at 10:43 PM

Looking pretty awesome man! Loving the art in dis game.

Vilham · August 28, 2012 at 10:48 PM

Took me a while to figure out why I think the areas look great and I think the lighting is what really sells it.

iwxanthi · August 29, 2012 at 8:08 AM

Looks really nice, good job

FrieChamp · August 29, 2012 at 8:39 AM

Aw man, comments like this mean a lot.

Really appreciate getting the chance to interact with you lot again.

Awesome work, man.

Veil was one of my favorite maps along with Machina, Bast, Eclipse and Hera. I'll be sure to jump right to it whenever I can.

So I just played it as a Marine, and I really enjoyed it. I definitely felt nostalgic here. I'm surprised you decided to make some areas with less height difference (like the corridor from West Skylights / Sat to Nanogrid), but it works quite well. Great layout changes near Pipeline too. I think, like its NS1 counterpart, that the map is a bit Marine-biased, but then again I went on a rampage this afternoon.

Top quality work.

Oh and forgot to mention, the visuals are sick. Especially System Waypointing, Pipeline (truly impressive), Sub-Sector and Emergency Nozzle. I think Nanogrid was a bit dull in comparison, but that may just be me.
