Name: DM-Bagger

Version: Final

Compatibility: PC & PS3

Description: Hey folks,

I've waited to post here until I got comfirmation the PS3 version works for all regional areas. To avoid any confusion later on.

So here it is. Bagger. What is, bagger?
A supermarket clerk... no...
Dutch for junk... no...
A huge excavator... why yes!

Instead of settling for a generic "room-corridor-room" design, I chose to do something fundamentally unique. Something you've never played before. Love it or hate it probably ain't gonna be a bigger factor on any other map as mine.

I'm cool with that.
Enjoy this map. It's just plain cool. That's DM-BAGGER.

Lock-'n-load - but watch your step!

This map is indeed cool. And I love/hate it.

I love the crazy z-action gameplay.

I hate the walkways with railings that are so low the player can walk right over them (no need to jump).

I love the unique feel to this map.

I hate the use of super-thin ledges that stifles the flow from one area to another.

And last but not least I can't decide if I like or loathe the small, precarious walkways. Thank goodness the lava is not instant kill.

If there were things that I could change to this map, it would be adding a floor to the crane portion (perhaps a wire net to walk on) that could be shot through, and raising the railings' height just enough so that you can't just step off them.

It's a pretty cool map. Great theme and great layout (with the exception of thin, thin ledges). I'll keep it on my hard drive, for now.

Actually I don't understand the walkway railings the player can walk right over, I specifically designed them not to be. I know there are a select few railings that still do push you over, but they're the absolute exception. I'd appreciate a screen-shot of the offending railing or railings :)

Alright, I went back and played it again and found that you are indeed correct. You can't run over the railings, but jumping/dodging certainly can lead to some damning falls. My bad.

Still, I can't help but wonder what a "safety net" version of this map would play like--one with a shoot-through net in-between those precarious tresses on the cranes.

Anyways, the short of what I can say about this map is that it somehow mutates thin, narrow walkways with long falls if you misstep into fun. That's actually pretty damn impressive.
