For me, this blows the living giblets out of Digital Extreme's average-above average maps!

Invasion -- Kicks ASS!

LMS -- Pretty Fun!

Mutant -- Er.....undecided



BR-Canyon = its like Facing Worlds for BR! 8/10

DOM-Junkyard = Biggish for DOM, nice points though 7/10

DM-Crash = hmmm, not so sure, too complex, too cramped, not a fan of the 1v1 levels 6/10

DM-Mixer = worst of the lot, congested, looks like a UT (original level) bland textures didnt like to play either 5/10

DM-Icetomb = aaaaah hahahahah! awesome. nice graphics, nice look, nice feel, nice little underwater pool, i thought this would be the best but....9/10

DM-Injector = this is the one with the very clever big central room and it looks kick ass with lots of wires and good lightning to boot! 10/10

DM-IronDeity = Er....lemme think, this has the most complex static mesh ever on it, reminded me of the Alien films....9/10

DM-Rustatoriam = plays pretty good, would get a 9 but has a really piss poor water effect soooooo 8/10


OK, I'm not a fan of CTF (nor is anyone in DOA|MH I believe) but the 2 maps kick ASS!

CTF-Avaris = Er....its bigger than Face-3, which gives you a clue to how damn big it is! Bases look complex, they arent, outside area is a Camping Haven, heh ZeLL will like this :) 9/10

CTF-DoubleDammage = Best I saw last, I'm not gonna spoil it, but lemme say, the WATER EFFECTS....WOOOOOW!!! Big Map, probably bitching difficult to win....but oh,oh, oh ,oh A+ BABY/10

Overall : 9/10 Really REALLY like it, back to INVASION!

Sadly, I installed the pack but only had time to play 1 map, DM-Rustatoriam.

To me the graphics were poor and it ran choppy on my system. Anyone else have this problem?

My specs are,
P-4 1.6
256 DDR ram
G-3 TI200 vid card
SB live 5.1
Win XP

Thank you for the update Burn :thumbs:
I haven't installed it yet, and since I am going to be gone, I probably won't get a chance to really play the new games/maps.

Oh yeah, Me and Pimp used to play CTF all the time. I still have a CTF server on my favorites that I check out now and again.

I played a couple last night, and will try to get at least a look at the rest. They are very, very pretty, so the frames are getting crunched a bit. I played in Junkyard with a guy who had a 9700 pro, he was getting 80+, I was getting 45 or so. He was also nearly sitting on the server, so it was a whuppin', :w00t: but they do stomp on the DE pack.. Hell, two of the DE pack maps I'd played for a couple of months already.

My video card sucks so bad, I can't make an adequate judgement. I am holding out for the Radeon 256 coming out this May so I am suffering with what I have as long as I can stand it... Don't ask what it is, it's too embarrassing... However, I have been having all kinds of trouble with Corrupt Connection Detected and other connection errors since I installed it so I am pretty sure I messed something up somewhere... :bawling:
