I was testing the mappack posted by Wondy which includes a map called the Garden. I didn't see who made it so I hope I don't hurt someone's feeling here.

The map has a wall which surrounds the playable area. You can jump up on a tree limb and onto the top of the wall. From there you can get to an area behind the wall. From this area you can wall shoot across the map or you can shoot down into the stairs area. All without being seen or anyway for anyone to shoot back.

From the hidden area you can crouch/squat and walk off the map without being killed. This gets you under the map where you have a good view of the underground areas. Again you can shoot in and they can't shoot out.

Curiously there is an ammo bucket under the level, nice place for a squatter to stay and fill up his kill count.

Lol! I never knew that there was a ammobox under there as well :P

It was all done by trial and error

There's a lot of reasons why I'm not proud of that map!

- It's rushed,
- no loadingscreen
- 2 dat files (should have been 1)

and of course.. that stupid tree, I didn't even know how to make blockers back then

So update it! It has the bones of a real good map, just tweak it till you're happy with it. It's been done before with other maps. The next time the mappack is about to be updated, have the new one in there. :D

The map is very playable, is a first map and as such is much better than most first maps I have seen and fixing it will seriously cut in to the time needed for some FEAR maps!!!

Almost, it plays a little different. More old school FPS than NOLF2. Less stealth and problem solving more run and gun. No where near the package deal of NOLF2 and it won't take long to play through but the game still has more playback value for the money than most other games.

I think it is hard to judge to that level when we have only played a single level of the game.
