    Old, Um, Maps Released


    Linguica

    Sverre Kvernmo (if you don't know who he is, go away... ok fine, mapper for Eternal Doom, Redneck Rampage, Daikatana, and KISS: Psycho Circus) sent word that BjoernarJohansen, an old friend of his, has released a couple of never-before-seen Doom 2 maps over on his homepage. They... eh, I'll just paste in what Sverre sent me.

    We used to collaborate a lot back then and the maps would have been included in the Cabal 32-map set if that project had ever been completed, but that never happened so the guy never released them anywhere! Anyway, if I remember right they're crazy difficult (Malcolm Sailor/Cabal-style) so they should be worth the time of anyone out there still counting their bullets and digging the old-school map-style.

    The screenshots don't look half bad either. Check them out.

    Hey, I think these must be the best single-player Doom maps in ages! I am still trying to get through the first map.

    These maps suck. They're from 95, and it shows, big time.

    Louis may have found a mate at last. Damnit, I was hoping he would never breed.

    ...was very poorly done, with the exception of the new graphics which I thought were good for it's time.

    You really don't appreciate maps for their gameplay do you? I played Atlantis and it was one of the best single player experiences I've ever had. Very well laid out map. You're obviously someone into TC's and fancy scripting stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you don't have to say these maps suck. It's your opinion. But your little "It shows it was made in 95" comment is bullshit. It's like saying "Doom episode 1 looks like it was made in 93, and it shows" Complete bullshit man. And then after all that, you go on your own page in in the middle of a review of Rick Clarks ne deathmatch map, you decide to bring up how much these maps suck. If you don't ant to review something, then don't bring it up. If you don't like maps made in 95, fine, but you have no reason to say they suck because they look like it. Sverre was one of the greatest map-makers back in the day, and I'm sure if he was still into Doom, he's make you feel sorry you ever said those maps sucked;)

    Ever heard about secret doors?! There's one In the collumn in the room you got stuck in. I presume it's Hellbolt. Obviously you haven't played enough Doom-maps in your lifetime.

    Bjoernar's maps scares the shit out of me, and its not because of the lack of texture alignment, but because they have the capacity to jump even a jaded old Doomer. ricrob - make it past that first column in Hellbolt and you're in for some cybernetic paranoia, at least for a few minutes. Anyway people, if you have to be on grid these maps aren't for you, they're the type of maps that have fun with monsters and test your marine skillz. Has all this jumping, mouselooking, and mirrored floors made you complainers LAZY? ;)

    I'm stuck further into hellbolt and to be honest I'm still unimpressed.

    Tawney, I am glad you liked Atlantis :) The maps are old, OK, but I guess they have their charm after all :} What about the other ones?
