Icy\'s Castle

has some cool features. As you can see, there is a drawbridge of sorts that\'ll keep you from frying in the lava moat. There is a button that\'ll extend the bridge, so hopefully you spawn in the castle. ;) The stairs up the turret are nice, but are a bit small and narrow. You can\'t comfortably run up them, without getting stuck on the torches. Each small turret has a disruptor, which I find to be a bit too much firepower. Probably should\'ve been limited to two of the towers. The armory doesn\'t have much to choose from and I did get stuck in it. I didn\'t figure out how to get out, because those things annoy me. So I noclipped out. :P The jail cells look good, but there was some z-fighting I found here and throughout the map. The last cell does lead to a cranky monster that wants to eat you. And that\'s why you see a picture of him from VERY far away. The doorways and staircases are nice, but like the turrets\' staircases, they seemed a bit narrow. I really like the dining hall and though I know the author was going for an RP theme here, with bactas at every seat - that\'s just way too much health for a good FFA map, in my opinion. Yes, there are bedrooms. Meh. Moving on. I really, really need to read the readme\'s first. I walked over to one of the buttons and thought, \"I wonder what this does? Does it open a door to a secret passage?\" No. It does not. It spawns things that want you dead. The stormtroopers scared the hell out of me. I jumped and landed in the lava. I think that was their plan all along. Anyway, all in all, this is a good map. It was fun to play, in spite of the few complaints I had. Could I actually play this on a guns server (which would be best) with other people? Heavens, no. The FPS was so bad, it gave me a headache. Work on the FPS issues and this might be a good addition to a gun server. Bot Support: Yes New Textures: No New Music: No Game Types: FFA ~AmosMagee
All right, for a first map, this is a good one. However, there are several problems. One of which being - I don\'t like Rancors. But we\'ll talk about that later. This is a map of a castle and it
