-:"MG_XMEN":-


Total Time Spent on map to date
Quite a lot :O Getting all the characters done and then starting the actual map took a very long time.

What is my map about?
You spawn and are randomly selected to be one of 8 characters.
Wolverine; Quicksilver; Rogue; Iceman; Beast; Nightcrawler; Cyclops; and Storm.
Each has corresponding abilities activated by the use key.

Wolverine heals self.
Quicksilver gets temporary superspeed.
Rogue turns off/temporarily removes enemies powers (within radius).
Iceman temporarily freezes enemies (within radius).
Beast temporarily gets low gravity as well as slightly increased speed.
Nightcrawler teleports ahead a given distance (indicated by a purple light).
Cyclops shoots a laser out of his eyes, damaging enemies significantly if direct hit occurs.
Storm creates a lightning storm around her damaging enemies for a few seconds.

Completion Percentage?
90-95%.

Current Map Plans/ What I will be doing
Testing, seeing what needs fixing, maybe adding a few more things later on, will see.

Map By
ME (Bob Loblaw)

More:
I enjoy knife fights but I wanted something that had a little more to it then just knifing the enemies, but I also wanted it to only be a map, not a mod. Thus I decided I would start this, see how it goes and see what people think.

I am going to need a few testers to test out everyone's abilities. None of the paramters of the characters abilities are set in stone. (Example if Wolverine seems overpowered I may reduce his heal etc.)

Ideas/suggestions/constructive criticism/opinions are appreciated.

I have a server to test on, I will link testers and only testers to the download and IP for server + password.(won't be fast download on the server, but is technically possible to download from it, it will just take a few minutes).
For those who don't know how to manually download maps, download the bsp and save it to:
(C:)>Program Files>Valve>Steam>SteamApps>YOURNAME>Counter-Strike Source>CStrike>Maps.

Map designed for 32 slots. 8 characters, 2 of each character per team. 8x2=16. 16x2=32 (for clarification;))

Thanks. Won't be testing right now, but maybe later. When we get a few testers willing to help I'll set up a time.

Actually I'm going to ask that you post when you can be testing. I'm hoping to do it either later tonight or sometime tomorrow (or near future anyways). So knowing when people can't do it/can will help decide testingtime.

Alright thanks :P Doing a little more testing just 1 on 1 with a friend to fix all the big bugs that can easily be spotted with only 2 people, then might be opening it up to actually testing with a few more people. So we still need more testers please and thanks :D

Testing is going to be today. I think I've worked out the majority of the bugs, and now I want to get more people to help balance each class and find other things that aren't working quite right.

Tomorrow I will see when I see a few people online, and those I don't have steamnames for I will pm on the forums seeing if they can join. Will probably do a number of testing sessions to work everything out, but I think me and my friend have gotten most of it.

I have temporarily stopped working on it due to the fact I don't have internet on my pc till the 10th. Was supposed to be the first but we missed the guy so until the 10th I can't get on cs:s. So hopefully get to more testing shortly after and see where it goes :)

This map is officially released. I rushed it, because I REALLY don't feel like testing it and trying to fix minor bugs anymore.
Unless major bugs are found, this is final version.
