This map is ridiculous. 🙂

[@Rotfish]

Let's just say it's... not the best Quake map.

@@Rotfish Quake maps work best when the mappers don't deviate from the original Quake theme too much. Reskinning Grunts and Enforcers to resemble Borg drones and tossing them into a map that's, I believe, supposed to represent Borg ship just doesn't work and can't work in Quake engine. 🙂

​@@MisterMarin I'd say I'm not ok with the architecture / map layout as much as you are with reskinning. I imagine playing it and being totally clueless as to where to go or how to progress whatsoever. Strict 90-degree angles (other than that one elevator around a rounder thingy), thin walled Wolf 3D closets that you strafe into, shoot and proceed to the next one, interactive pieces having the same textures as "just geometry"...

[@MisterMarin]

@@OleksiiTheAngry Indeed. Ridiculous, isn't it? 🙂

[@OleksiiTheAngry]

@@MisterMarin people who played my maps said they were weird to be polite. I guess I am moving towards more or less standard gameplay (still, with some art-sy elements).
