Friedhof




By Reigning chaos
6-12 players
Save one Bullet, Alpha Zombie, Zombies



This is Friedhof, those of you that are active here on forge hub know that there is an infection map contestgoing on, or to be more specific; a save one bullet map contest... This is my entry.



Basic Info:

Games typically take around 2-6 minutes making gameplay very fast paced.Once zombies pick up to around 3 or 4 don't wander alone.Upper area is better to use pistol, while lower area is better use shotgun. Zombies can spaw anywhere on the map, including the upper level... basically if you're not there, they will be.

The layout is extremely easy to adjust to, it is bsically a large square with a smaller one set on top of it.





Weapon Loadout:

While the map is made for Save one Bullet specifically, it still has weapons on it to support other types of infection too!
Quote:
Shotgun 90 sec. 0 clips
Sniper rifle 120 sec. 0 clips
Needler 45 sec. 1 clip
Br x2 10 sec. 1 clip
Smg x2 45 sec. 1 clip



Details:

Friedhof is my very first infection map that I have made, and looking back at it I am very proud of myself. Its name (Friedhof) comes from its setting, which is a graveyard hence the german word for cemetary comes into use seeing as most myths about creatures that are considered "Halloweeny" come from europe and a few from germany itelf. Being a personal fan of survivalistic modes on games I always have liked infection maps that are impossible to camp on as they show that the fittest will survive.



Pictures:


Overview

Graves

Zombie room

Human spawn

Ramp to secondary level

Gate at the right side of the top of the ramp



Questions/Concerns:

If you experience any abnormalities with gameplay such as spawn problems please notify me, I will try my best to solve the problem and re-upload the map to my fileshare + update the link here.

In case you missed the link at the top...
Download Friedhof

One last thing...
Good luck to all of you entering the contest

Nice. You hit the eery nail on the head! I mean, it looks scary! lol. I know it's meant to be a graveyard, but it kind of reminds me of an abandoned prison, with the courtyard and cage doors lying around.
But yeah, on first impressions, it looks awesome. Ima download it now and probably get back to ya with some gameplay feedback.

Yeah it, actually does look like more of a abandoned prison. It definately looks scary though. I'm liking that graveyard area, but the upside down scaffolding doesn't seem to fit in my opinion unless you had an original purpose of what they once were or just cover. Doesn't retract from the map at all though. Props to you, Chaos, I'll be sure to check this out tomorrow.

The scaffolding is meant to be old, broken pieces of fences. Don't really see how they could look like anything else to be honest...

Also, they serve as a secondary way to get to the sceond floor for zombies (jump on one, jump to 2nd floor). They give even less cover than you'd think, so no to that.

Thanks, I worked pretty hard on this one, I even set it up for slayer, oddball and koth (The spawns may not work good though) I wouldn't really suggest that over infection though.

I've had a forge through and then had a game with a few friends. I love the rooms on the bottom floor and the connections from the grave stones to the upper floor was really fun for the gameplay.
If anyones played oblivion before, you can see that you've tried to make those shelve things that coffins lay on, and that looked awesome! There were no camping spots and it was really fast paced. It's a really good infection map :)

From what I see of the map it looks really good but I cant see much at all, could you retake the screenshots without filters on? You should only have the filters on for action shots and points of interest with the filter on, such as dark corners etc.

Ill edit my post if you update with some new pictures :)

Yea, I'd also like to see more pictures... It looks really nice aesthetically.. but I'm worried about how it plays with 10+ people. I'll take a run through and see how big it is.

Edit: I guess it's... medium/smallish size.. :/
It's also really really dark.. even with my screen settings at its highest..
But I like how everything's just flows together and has a really spooky sort of feel to it.

Is this what you've bin working on? I thought you were doing a collaboration with those other few guys. Oh well, this looks great for infection. I love how its dark but not so dark that you can't see anything. It's hard to tell the size so I'm going to do a run through to see if it's big enough for a lot of people. Great Job RC. - 9/10

Loved it haha, man those games were so fast Overkill ftw lol. Anyway this map is really great, i love fast paced infection and that is what this is. The aesthetic value is also amazing. The zombies look extra terrifying with the filters on haha. We played with about 6-7 people and went both ways, some times everyone got turned real fast other times we pwnd zombies haha.

This is a must download, i recomend it to everyone and 5/5 RC my fav infection map to date, well other than my current one haha.

hey I remeber being in one of the testings. Unfortunately i got boot out and played on the map by myself. I thought it was great. The interlocking wa close to perfetion and the gmeplay was complimentary to the environment. however, I was wondering if there is a way to get through the gate thing. Does anything spawn behind it?
