Carnagey Hull + (m2)

I really don't know what Bungie was thinking this time around with the alien textures. Sort of like a bad golfing quartet on acid... and this map makes full use of them. Sort of a big ring, with a small room in the center. Lots of minibobs and ticks... This version adds quite a few features, making it much more playable as a net map.

DMMC Archive v5

4 maps, for the week ending 1/7/96. Two have been seen before (Mutiny is good on the small maps page, and Assault of the Bobs from last week has been redone to be mostly underwater), but the other two are nice.

King Carnage

A small arena, with the weapons mostly in the (hard to reach once you've left) outer ring. The fire Flick'ta are really annoying...

M2 Suicide v1

The Suicide Maps are moving to M2... here's the first 5. Get ready for mass carnage!

Octagon v2.0

A big, rambling level. Lots of twisty, windy passageways with drop holes into water-filled tunnels... In order to facilitate flow, the underwater tunnels have been removed. Really shrinks up the subjective size of the map.

Tic Tac Toe

A pretty simple arena, with all weapons in raised passageways. Unlimited Flick'ta.

You're in Hot Water!

Really, really tight on weapons, and the depth is that annoying one where you're half in, half out, with the screen jumping every second...

Current Castle

A totally underwater hill... and a physics model that lets you fire weapons there. Getting to the hill is non-trivial. (Something to do with the name of the map...)

House of Pfhun

A small arena, and a large ammo room... most of the ammo is suspended (get good at elevators, or die), and watch the lava traps! A few neat tricks...

Mutiny is good...

A small, tight, King-of-the-Hill arena. Great flow. See how long you can stay on the hill... this map should have some of the lowest winning times around.

Lord of the Sky

Conversion of an M1 map, Lord of the Pit. Don't fall off! (if you do, check out the bottom quickly...)

Mars Needs Women v1.1

Stays pretty close in feel to the original. One major difference, though... getting that spanker is a bit more painful than it used to be. (Seems like there are more purple compilers than in the original, too... those circling green bolts in the carnage pit are a pretty eerie sight!) Update has some tweaks (better lighting, some sounds, movement to the lava).

Matt's Tool

The first modified M2 map, as far as I know... This is a modification of Flight of the Toolator, with the lava removed and weapons and aliens beefed up.

Wisp's Small Net Maps

A pair of small arenas. Nice flow, and no aliens (although the Bobs in Chess can be a hassle). The readme only covers the first map... Nice placement for the alien weapon on The Abyss. (You'll stumble on it...)

DMMC Archive v4

The Durandal Map Makers Club is a group of AOLers who get together to make M2 maps. They release an archive each week, comprised of all the M2 maps made by group members over the week. This is their fourth release, dated 12/31/95. This one's four maps. Seems to be a water theme... (Except for Spanker Island, which felt an awful lot to me like the M1 map Cylinder (available in one (or more, maybe) of the Suicide Maps). Pretty good quality, overall... I wasn't overly fond of Water World Arena (which is *nothing* like the Bungie map of similar name), but Pfhlange and Assault of the Bobs were ...

Egan-Rac

This one's big, bright, and has some pretty cool areas. Very liberal use of ambient sounds, and some fun waterfalls (although a couple of them are just annoying). This one would be good with 5-8 players...

Mars Revisited

This ain't Mars. Well, it has the same layout as Mars, and it's a pretty nice map in its own right, but it ain't Mars... The carnage pit is now a (very deep) pool, brightly lit. The upstairs is open to the air, with vistas... The compilers in the water are pretty cool, but it ain't Mars...

Pfhlood

The first M2 map done (well, sort of) by AFCYdnar, the creator of Pfhorever and Pfhactory. This map was never finished (it's not 68K clean-use Ignore Zero Divides on those machines), and was never meant to be released, but it has already been leaked by some of his friends, so... It's actually a pretty nice small (sewage-filled) arena. Dark, and the liquid keeps the death rate reasonable...
