Story:
20 years ago, an alien race came to earth with one goal, The total annihilation of what ever lived here. They had conquered many worlds and many solar systems. However they found Earth was different, This race fought back and forced the aliens off the planet surface. Clever as the humans were, They managed to capture many of the aliens, and kept them in holding cells. Hoping to learn more about them as time went on, So far they have learned nothing but they are bred to kill and conquer. The leading scientist of a group called SOM were given the rights to use whatever force was needed to gain the information about these aliens. 2 years have now passed since the aliens landed, and SOM are still doing tests. They have gained only little information such as the aliens are called Zerg and there home world is called Char. Within those two years, The head leader of SOM, Daniel began doing even more extreme tests. Forcing the zerg warriors to attack each other. Using human test subjects, he even started breading hundred's more zerg warriors. But someone within SOM has gone a little mad, and released all the warriors. They now roam around the Science Labs, Causing it to become Infested.

Only a few human test subjects remain in the hole lab, most of them died trying to escape, Died while fighting for there lifes in combat. Others just vanished. You wake up in a holding cell, You have no memory of what is gonig on or how you got here. You are a little light headed at the moment, but that will waer off in time. You sit down and start to think, when your cell door explodes and open. The first thing you do is run out of your cell without thinking what might happen. Your first thought is to find any weapon to help defend yourself. As you start gaining info from the science lab computers, you reliese what has happend and start to panic. But after reading more and more computer logs, You start thinking again and reliese that you might be the only one left, and you are the one will have to stop this.. Will you make it out alive or will earth fall to these Zerg?

Neat. Make sure you give the civilian a erason for having his memory blank though.

I think I have your first version of this in my computer, I could sned it to you if you wanted, but it sounds like it would be better if you did redo it.

Personaly I don't see how that music will loop...
And that music is really shot so it might get anoying if you loop it

try to find a 30 second music piece.... That would be good...

Keep up the good work with the map!!!

Another update:

I am working hard on the holding cells area + first floor. So far they are coming on nicely. If i get time, What i might do is make the demo after this post. The demo will be of the holding cells + first floor.
I have added in the music for the map, Though im still looking around for some sound files that i need for the map. but they can be added in last.

Little more info on the lab:

Only a few human test subjects remain in the hole lab, most of them died trying to escape, Died while fighting for there lifes in combat. Others just vanished. You wake up in a holding cell, You have no memory of what is gonig on or how you got here. You are a little light headed at the moment, but that will waer off in time.

But after reading more and more computer logs, You start thinking again and reliese that you might be the only one left, and you are the one will have to stop this.. Will you make it out alive or will earth fall to these Zerg?

I have updated my first post with this and added it to the story.
I will be updated my first post with more Screen shots Soon.
Any comments?

Does this tie in with the StarCraft storyline? If so, you could have the remnants of the UED forces and stuff coming back to Earth. And if you're the only person left on Earth, how can you defend it against the zerg?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Staredit.Net Essence on 2005-01-17 at 13:09:26
Fall to the Zerg, we will trick you into thinking we are dead then mass you, hahaha.

Anyways, it sounds pretty neat. Will you be able to change weapons during the game? Perhaps you could have Zerglings attacking burrowed lings in the dad marine doodads, so it looks like they are eating the corpses.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Felagund on 2005-01-17 at 13:13:46
That's a good idea, but you could only implement in certain cases. Elsewise you could walk through the game without being attacked... As they're attacking other things already.

One main concern: watch your grammar, nothing can ruin a map faster than losing the ability to understand it. Looks good though.

No, This have nothing to do with the storyline of starcraft. This is my own little idea. I have not made a map in ages besides my first map for SEN, Which was bugged like hell as i rushed it to get it complete to meet my deadline. Ever since then i have not made a map. This hopefully will be a success, if not. Bah w00t.gif

Not a half bad idea, I will work on that and try other idea to mix with it.

I have a question about the "flashback" battle pit... is it a seperate area from the "regular" battle pit? (I'm asking because of the missing doodads).

No offensive, But, that BG song isn't that scary, also. If it keeps repeating(looping) Then that will be annogying. Well, I'm sorry if this post offends ya.

The music wav file, Suck's i know. As i had to cut it down alot and compress it to make it smaller in size. But no offence taken, If people ask for feedback and comments and then get mad at people who give bad feedback about there maps, Are well plain stupid.....

As for the music, The is not really a horror/Scary map. But the music just adds to the map. As normal starcraft music is boring. happy.gif
