Alright, I think this will be one of the maps that I will actually release, but it's still unfinished... here's what I have so far (BTW, I will most probably have this map take place at night):

Is there anything that you guys can suggest at all in terms of gameplay elements, structures, etc.?

It's a start.

Try adding more detail such as walls around the compound, a gate house, etc... Add more function to the entire complex.

Rebellion

I dunno, its just a three letter prefix that I thought up at the last minute.

I really don't like the way HL2's terrain repeats itself that much. Again, I still think HL2 isn't capable of natural open areas.

It's capable, it just needs a lot of work.

Stratesiz: Supposedly, in one of the earlier Hammer builds for Source, you could blend between any two textures... for some reason, you can only blend if you choose a texture that has "blend" in it, and it can only blend with another predetermined texture. If they revert it back to how it was though, it'll make the terrain look a lot better.

The snow looks really uninteresting imo. Looks too clean, make it dirtier.

A few updated screenshots:

(note: I didn't really add to the first area with the forward bunker since I figured that I'll save the rest of the geometry in the main complex area. I most likely will end up expanding it a bit, though.)
