Alpha Complex (Warren.wad Redux)

Very good visuals and lighting, despite the cramped theme. Fairly atmospheric, but a slower music track would probably been a better choice. Way too much armour and supplies to prove a challenge, even on UV. People complaining about "switch hunts" should stay away from this one. I liked it, though. It would be interesting with an entire epsode done in this style.

Meh, 2 stars.

the imps at the blue key don't teleport on the first two difficulty levels. rest of it is pretty much average.

Tech-style mostly underground level. Layout consists of a lot of too cramped corridors and two simple open areas, and is too repetitive. Even the open areas are interchangeable... Yawn. Ambiance is not really bad, but Nicolas' 5* claim here below is absolutely questionable. Overall it feels like a simple map which was highly attributed in an attempt to make it more attractive. Gameplay @ UV is IMHO very 1-dimensional and never gets exciting or challenging.

A sluggish struggle through dark, really cramped corridors with detail that far surpasses everything else in this WAD. It can keep you on your toes as enemies are suprisingly dangerous and health can be scarce. The effects of various switches on this level aren't always obvious, although it's also not that difficult to figure out what they do. Architecture is squarish. In overall, this WAD would be much better if better layout and less cramped corridors were applied.

I don't know why I am annoying.

Very atmospheric, right texture choices and good lighting contrast. Anything related to the alphas is always nice!
