In Response To: Not late at all (Forrest of B.org)

: Thank you very much :-)
Well, I really think that you and your team deserve a healthy amount of praise for this. Eternal belongs with EVIL, RED, TI and Rubicon as the scenarios to have.

: Oh whoops... I forgot the .zip in the URL. Try this . It's not an updated
: map for FC5 - it's just the map file from FC5
So should I decompress the .zip file and replace the .sceA file I already have with this?

: You don't have to climb at all on this level...
Gotcha, thanks.

With respect to the level design of CDB and HoF, what really struck me was how utilitarian the levels were, just like the original M1 levels. However, the reason why I was puzzled with the wide hallways in Heat of Fusion is that if this is a fairly neglected portion of the ship, you wouldn't expect a lot of travel in the hallways, so you wouldn't need to make them very large. I guess one possible explanation would be that the extra width would have been necessary when they were active, to transport heavy machinery and parts.

I also thought the design of the AI banks was an interesting presage to the AI bank design we'd later see in M2, MI, and Rubicon.

: Well... except the new weapon and player models and multiplayer... but those
: will be out in a few months, don't worry! For now, it's done! Until next
: version."
Well, think of it this way - it'll build hype and whet people's appetites for Omega (or whatever you choose to call it). It worked out well for Rubicon when they talked about Rubicon AO Full (eventually Rubicon X). And while a lot of people (esp. me) gave it up for dead, we ended up getting something truly special indeed. I'm sure this case will be no different. :)
