did you manage to use advanced techniques to reach secrets? (wall running, crouch sliding ect)9 responses

Didn't find them

No, I didnt see anywhere to do this.

Only a little, some seemed a bit out of the way

No

I didn't but I did notice them

No nothing like that. I used jump pads.

No as there is a way to bypass the whole level using the side paths and the jump pad

Didn't attempt it but i found you could reach most places with the help of the translocator

No, since items like the redeemer don't retire them

is the level balance the same on both sides?9 responses

Seems to be balanced

For the most part yes.

Yes

yes

It felt correct

Yeah both sides were fine.

not really as the level can all be bypass

yes

Yes, the bases are symmetrical and both paths in the centre are good for running.

were jump pads effective and did they give you good access to new areas?9 responses

Jump pads worked fine, easy to use

I think they were good, although I didnt make the jump once.

Yes, jump pads had enough force to get you to where you needed to be

not really theres a brick wall that looks like I should be able to get in the corridor behin it

Yes they seemed to work correctly

They worked well and helped the flow of the level.

They broke the level as you could bypass the whole place

it felt like the jump pad didnt launch you far enough, i kept bumping the edge on less i didnt move at all whilst in the air

Yes the side jump pads were good for reaching new areas

was flag placement and player spawn placement good or bad and why?9 responses

The flag is vulnerable from one side, but is the same for both teams so works well

I think it was good, although the flag still feels easy to obtain.

The player spawn inside of the building seemed like it had no weapons immediately by it, while the spawn outside had two weapons by it.

nope I want cover so I can defend the flag or hide when both teams have the flag

maybe out the flag in the centre at the back

The flag placement was good I have always liked them. I could spawn camp however easily.

Bad as you could literally go one way to another

it felt like you were spawn right in the middle of everything, very easy to get killed right after spawning

Now that the flags are at the opposite end to the jumppads its much bette.

Were the weapon choices appropriate for their locations and did you find them useful8 responses

weapon choice works well

I would say all of them were apart from the bio rifle at the start. It didnt seem to fit the location.

Yes, the weapons felt appropriately positioned and well spread out, though some next to the inside spawn would be better

yes but they were annoying guns hate the bio rifle

yes but I still find the biorifle irritating and a little pointless for the size of this area

Yeah they was good and could always find them.

Bio rifle seems pointless in placement, replace with link guns

a lot of long range weapons a part from the flak cannon

What do you think of the levels aesthetics?8 responses

Level looks nice, the darker areas suit the theme of the map

I think it looked nice, though some random objects in the map. I dont see the point in the barrels.

It looked good and appropriately textured.

they work

Yeah worked well, maybe get it so the sewer area flows better all seemed to flow in one direction if thats not possible make it still and stagnant.

They looked good a few meshes I could walk though.

Seems pointless and you can break through the map

i think it works really well, i did like the sewers the most. The green light fit really well. i also like the random splashes on water that was on the ground.

Are imported objects and scenart aestheticly pleasing?9 responses

Map looks nice

Yes, I would change the mesh under the redeemer.

Ye

I guess so didn't notice it much

Yes some issues with the tube part and the surrounding square area having gaps

Yeah was fine a few weird aspects of the textures I liked the look of the sewers

Seems pointless and you can break through the map

yes

Yes they fit the level well

Was the level to the correct scale?9 responses

yes (2)

As far as I found yes.

Yes

In the areas I went it felt fine

Yeah worked fine and the scale was good.

Level was to the correct scale

yes a apart from the jump pad

Yes the rooms and hallways were large enough to fit multiple players in without problems and they weren't too big

Did you find any Bugs/Glitches/Glaring Issues with the Level?9 responses

No (2)

no (2)

Didn't find any

Not that I found.

the side platform in the middle floats, it is also a little dark.

Not to my knowledge where the redeemer was I couldn't enter the pipe was just floating. Also I could use a jump pad and trans-locate so I was falling forever.

The flag placement is terrible, sewers seems pointless, poor U-damage and redeemer placement. Problems with broken chimneys and the objects being moved seemed to add extra lag to the level. Also if your gonna make people use the side passage, remove the jump pad to the roof.

How would you improve the level?8 responses

Make a sensible way of getting the redeemer. I dont think the metal bridge at the top is useful because there is nothing up there. Also, I was able to use the jump pad by the flag and then walk along the wall to skip most of the map.

Add/move weapon spawns so there are more by respawn locations

make the spawn and flag more covered

I would make the side area just jump to the platform then only able to get into the middle of the map rather than being able to run on the little ledge.

I would make the flow for UDamage and the redeemer easier. The sewers were not used unless you fell in them. they don't add anything.

Remove the jump pad on the side of the building to get to the roof, move the flag placement. Is the roof area really necessary?

maybe make the spawn area a bit safer but other than that and the jump pad it was pretty well

I think adding more to the roof section would make it more interesting.
