Magma Mine Alpha 2.0
Created by Casselfied

Well hey guys, after quite a lot of feedback and a couple of months away from my xbox, I decided to revisit this project and I am happy to say that it is back with a bang. I did a lot work to this map and a lot of testing to make this map what it is. I think the first version looking back was a POS and something to learn from. Non-the-less, I learned from most of my mistakes, listened to the feedback and dug away at the project. This has actually been sitting on my xbox for a while, but I never got around to releasing it. I am happy though, to say that it is finally here.

Changes from 1.0:

Magma Mine Alpha 2.0 is an expansion of its original creation. Instead of it being this 2 room infection environment, it is now a 4-stage linear (journey) map. 2.0 continues from the lava room into a brand new storage area and then a heli-pad. Once again I did a lot of testing to make sure each area of the map was balanced.

How does it work?

Phase 1:

Things work mostly the same as they did before on the first version at the beginning. The 1st zombie teleporter spawns 10 seconds in, giving enough time for the humans to set up defense and get ready for the zombie attack.

Same old human spawn and where the zombies come from.

The main lobby has had a makeover with a new heavy duty chandelier!

The minecart has been editied to look more clean and less sloppy!

Humans wait 70 seconds (when the timer hits 2:50) before moving on to the 2nd phase. 2nd zombie teleporter also spawns at 60 seconds and is still sitting in the giant hole in the top of the ceiling.

Phase 2:

Some new and old, mostly new. I re-forged most of this room to make it more gameplay and less aesthetic, but trying to keep both. Instead of rocks, there are broken bridge pieces which are much wider and less frustrating. I still recommend trying to take this area with caution. There is room for error, unlike the first version. There are no weapons or means of ammunition in phase 2.

No more shield door and humans cannot get on strut beams.

Entrance to phase 3.

At 110 seconds (2:10 on the timer) you gain access to the 3rd phase. At 105 seconds (2:15)

Phase 3:

Players will make their way into the first brand new part of the map: the cooling storage. The humans are left will be able to stock up on some ammunition. Zombies will gain direct access from the zombie spawn, shortly after the humans do. Zombies will be able to unleash the "Omega" (via custom powerup) shortly after direct access. The Omega will be Red.

Overview of the entrance to phase 4.

At 170 seconds (1:10) humans have access to phase 4, to make their last stand.

Phase 4:

The 4th and final stage of the map. If the humans make it this far, they are rewarded with an escape. A falcon on a heli-pad is provided for the last humans that survived the level. For those that don't make it to the falcon, there is a sniper rifle with one spare clip, as a tool for one last hope.
