This is my first forgehub map entiteled "Pandora's Descent." Heres a quick little machinima type vid to set the mood of the map and give you an idea of what it looks like.

I set the map up for infection and safehavens, though safehavens may play out a little strange based on how i built the map. heres some quick details of the map contents

Weapons

assault rifle: x6
shotgun: x2
sniper: x1
DMR: x1
grenades: x4

Safe Haven count: 3

Map size: borderline medium

This map is completely inside as i wanted to make it feel like you were in a deserted space station type scenario. I took alot of inspiration from the movie "Pandorum." I even simulated a space view from one of the windows on the ship with stars and what-not. there will be a pic of that below.

Now about the gameplay. Just like in the video, most of the survivors start off in a cryogenic sleep chamber. There are also three other spawns outside the main room. those unlucky three survivors will have to sit tight for a while as the rest of the survivors at main spawn cannot exit the room immediately. The main spawn room comes with a fully functional hangar door, which you might have seen in the video. However, this door will not work until 60 seconds after the game has started. Zombies can beat on that door all they want until then. This is also not the only entrance to the room. There is a ventilation system on the map which leads right into the main spawn room. This is why i put a timer on the door. When zombies spawn, they spawn right into the ventilation system. If you have normal gravity settings, the humans should not be able to access the ventilation system. i can see them getting up there with some kind of trick jump, but even if they do, they can't reach the zombie spawn as it is at a different elevation in the ventilation system. Now if the survivors are able to make it through that 60 second defence, they can go up to the motion-sensitive door and it will open to the rest of the ship for them and they can unite with the rest of the survivors. (supposing they made it too) Then the rest is up to them. they can find a place to steak out or they can run and gun through to the end of the ship, which is ultimately a hold-off type area.

I believe i got the balance of the map right.. The ventilation system should rule out a lot of camping spots and the only camping spots available should'nt be to hard to overrun making it a struggle for the humans rather than a sit-back-and-pick-off-zombies kind of thing. now heres the screenies :D
