Forsaken

Forsaken is the first Quake map I ever made, I want to start archiving my maps on slipseer so I figured I'd move it over here.

Forsaken was designed to be a combat challenge map, so expect to die a few times on skill 2 & skill 3, gameplay is very combat heavy with a high monster count.

The map is runic theme and is medium sized, visuals are classic id1 style but with fog and colored lighting.

Made with copper and is packaged in the folder, I also made a custom track for this song that is also included.

The only changes from the initial version and this one was that I fixed a softlock which was possible if you walked back through a door that closes behind you and aligned a total of (2) textures, I wanted to leave the map as the same exact experience and made sure that demos from the original release don't desync! I also included the .map file this time around for archiving purposes.

This map was a ton of fun, and had some great encounters I've never seen before. I particularly liked the bit where you're falling through the slipgates trying to block the shamblers from zapping you. Caching resources and playing efficiently to prepare for upcoming fights was also a lot of fun, and the final fight was a great slaughter. The dodge-the-grenades pit may have been a bit RNG heavy, but in any case, I was happy to play a map that's on the harder side. Looking forward to your future maps :)

Most people seemed to hate the falling teleport section, so I'm glad someone else was also able to appreciate it. It still is also my favorite section in the map.
Challenges are great and creative combat setups. Only small issue I had with the map was the slightly too high RNG factor in few encounters. It is great map to play with saves and trying to survive situations one by one, but running the map with 100 deaths in single segment can get frustrating haha.
Could use an extra scrag
Top tier challenge-map Quakeage. Need more maps like this.
