Necropolis

I seriously think this is very underrated, especially considering there are other maps in DAC2005 that look and play a lot worse.

While using nazi stuff is usually a big no-no, I think this time their usage is not completely out of place, as you walk through a few nazi-themed buildings. Nazi demons? I wish the author elaborated a bit on this in the description...

Either way, the map's biggest problem is ammo and weapon placement. At the beggining I had to shoot at least 3 arch-viles using only a goddamn pistol. And, if I'm not blind, you only get the chaingun about halfway through the level (in my case, about 28 minutes in).

This map is TOUGH, and I mean it. The space is cramped, and there's a ton of monsters (half a thousand!). However, I have enjoyed it a lot once I got through the first few rooms full of hitscanners, and got enough ammo to stop pea shooting cacodemons and hell knights.

The map doesn't look bad at all IMO. There are a few rooms with odd design choices, and as I said, the design is very cramped.

About the boom compatibility... I don't know, I don't care. :P

I'd give the map 3.5 stars... if I could. I round it up to 4 instead. Maybe the overall rating will be compensated. :)

Nice design, but way too hard at the beginning.

One of the few poor maps in DAC. A mess, and *not* Boom compatible either.

This is dated November 2005. You fight 499 baddies in an intricate, detailed, but old-fashioned and random-looking Nazi techbase. There's a dearth of shotgun ammo and I spend ages pistol-shooting imps and cacodemons and then demons. Rather than becoming more entertaining as it goes on it actually becomes more and more aggravating until eventually (just past the mancubuses, at the bit with the rockface) I just couldn't be bothered to persist with it.
