Another thumbs up. At last, something a bit different. Needs more (gasp!) props, stuff like dustbins, maybe some toolchest, kids toys in the front yards(trikes and stuff)? Not sure what the default HL2 assets are like, so you might have to get a few custom things made. Few more ideas for cover : Maybe someones working on their car in the driveway, so you've got tools and stuff lying around and the cars up on blocks, allowing for physics based amusement.

Nice! flip the textures on the roofs on the sixth picture. That wouldnt work well in rainy wheather =P.

Great start! Detroit atmosphere minus the crack whores.

Needs some B-ball hoops, crack houses and a KFC.

Ah you showed me some earlier screens on this. Looked good even there.

Now its looking better. Really nice so far. Looking forward to see more

[jfas]

reminds me of some tony hawk game....it looks promising but its too clean, kinda bland

[Mojo]

there are some buildings that look fairly poorly done. just blocks with a building texture on it (like the brown building in the third pic). overall, good looking map. gj.

you mean the forth pic? since the yellowish brown house in the 3rd pic looks ok, maybe just some window bays, but looks good

Brown building in 4th pick is obviously some warehouse, so flushing that one out might be tricky, but possible.

Looks great otherwise.

Nice. Doesn't look like generic HL2 material... I can't wait for release, hope the gameplay elements are as promising as the graphics.

BlazeeER!

Thanks for all the comments all...I've gotten some great ideas for the map from here.

About the gameplay...that's the hardest part...but I'm pretty sure I have a good layout...and It's not going to be as wide-open as it seems.

those hl2 swings would make good use on this map :]

[sk3tch]

..will try.

Also the ghetto basketball court caught my fancy.

[von*ferret]

i think fletch and mike did something simillar with a ghetto area, might look at their level for some inspiration.

Is this because tripple x is out?

kidding.

The map is well done!
