My natural-selection 2 map

[dux]

So here's my natural-selection 2 map that I've been working on for around 2 years. v1.0 of the map is getting released with the next build of the game which should be in a day or two

It's mostly brushwork based with some props, pretty much source style.

Here's the video:

It got posted on kotaku as well:

Gorgeous stuff mate, you should be proud of what you've achieved.

Some of those textures look a little too much like blockout though, not a huge fan! Not your fault though.

[Puddy]

I am really liking the looks of this!!! Real badass map you got there mate!

And hurg would be proud.

[FrieChamp]

Looks splendid! Bonus points for President Hurg!

[Skacky]

I lol'd at Hurg.

Anyways, I must confess I'm not a huge fan of the clean areas, I think it's too smooth and clean for NS. Even Ayumi, which was arguably the cleanest map in NS1, was far grittier. However the other parts of the level look mindblowing, especially the outside areas and that generator. Can't wait to try it out. :derp:

[dux]

Thanks guys. And skacky, veil and eclipse were way cleaner than ayumi

[neozyem]

this is badassery

reassuring to see those big spaces, relative to my experience with the alpha/beta.

looks great.

It got put on RPS too

Congrats, looking really nice. The blue interior reminds me of a hl1dm map, radiohazard or whatever it was called

[Thrik]

That looks great, love the lighting/colours and how each area looks so distinctive. Did they end up keeping the dynamic alien infestation stuff in Natural Selection 2 so the areas get more grotty as time goes on?

Also, appearance of Hurg = awesome.

[PhilipK]

Sweet! I'm getting a nice old school vibe from this level (in a good way)!

[dux]

The dynamic infestation is going to come at the end. Become low priority at the moment.

this is really nice. fantastic I love it =)

Fantastic work. Looking forward to playing it too! I had to stop the video to actually check if that was Hurg, laughed pretty hard!
