Welcome to compound, the map on tighter lockdown than Alcatraz on a good day. This map was made by the genius of Weapon Porters and Creators themselves, ElTitoPricus, and was released onto UGX on November 1st (Australian Time) to great appraisal, although it hasn’t received as much attention as the market is currently being flooded with maps that want attention before Black Ops 3 is released. Now, without further Ado, let’s get into the Pros & Cons for this map.

PROS:

Weapons on Point: As expected from Eltito, His weapons are on point, with a range of weapons to choose from, from the MIA SOCOM M14 to the Spitfire LMG from Titanfall. The anims on all these flow well, and work even better. He even added a Katana with the best sprinting animation I have ever experienced, as I feel like such a gumby bastard when I sprint with the Katana, I can’t honestly explain it, but it always makes me smile.

Custom parts flow fluidly: In this map, he has added a few custom features, both from himself and his best friend, Paranoia D. Such things include way a perk is consumed, instead of drinking it, you inject it into your wrist, which I thought was pretty innovative, as well as the custom Dual Wield weapons, as you were able to fire either one of the weapons, by following the initial on-screen Prompt after buying/receiving a DW weapon.

Map Design was great: This map looked as great as it felt, the atmosphere was uplifting and refreshing as I was slaying nazi zombies in broad daylight instead of the dead of night, which was a refreshing change. Plus the colours of everything made everything seem more fun and cheerful, unlike most maps set in the night.
Now, no map is perfect, so let’s get into the Cons of this Map

CONS:

Short Easter Egg: Although this map is fun, the buildable EE wasn’t very enjoyable. Yes, it was nice to have a change in how it changed from a buyable to a survive-to-win ending, it was relatively easy to find the parts, then to survive the 5 minutes.

Broken Perks: PHD Flopper is in this map, true, but unfortunately, it is broken as it doesn’t do anything it is supposed to remedy you from, such as Fall Damage and Explosive Damage. This was felt when using the light beam rifle, which is required to be shot at the ground, and it has an extra-large blast radius, meaning you will most likely damage & kill yourself instead of the zombies.

Not too many areas to train: This map hasn’t got too many areas where you can train. But, it does have a very easy camping option, which, although brings back nostalgia from the NDU days, doesn’t really fit with modern standards of people wanting to round ‘em up.

Final Verdict

Level Detail: 9/10. It’s a lovely map, beautiful to look at.
Custom Content: 10/10. All things in this map are custom, including the Knife Model
Fun Scale: 6/10. Fun to Slay, Alright to play.
Replayability: 5/10. After you PAP every weapon on the map, there really isn’t much left to do in the map, you could challenge yourself, but hey, not my call.
Overall Score: 30/40

Tito is working hard on update, which includes more areas, extended EE and Flopper fixed. Like said, there are no real training areas, which gives nice challenge and has that very hectic gameplay on 4-player co-op, where zombies can come from any direction. Update will be dank af, I gotta say from what I have seen from Radis mapping of new areas :gusta:
