Your single player top 5

[Baker]

Share your top 5 list of single player maps/episodes.

Of the ones I've played, which is quite a few -- probably in 150 range -- but yet a small fraction of everything out there, what are the 5 you liked the most.

For me, some of my favorites changed upon replaying them.

Here is my current list, in no particular order.

- LunarSP1 - Concentric Devastation



- Castle of Koohoo



- Insomnia



- Once Upon Atrocity



- Duke of Ontranto



There are a lot of other ones that I liked quite a bit, but those ones I particularly enjoyed playing the first time and on additional occasions.

Of course, I haven't played everything in existence and lists change. I thought Starship was pretty cool the first I played it, and it still is, but on later replaying of the map it didn't have the same effect on me.

In no order I like...

IKS series... anyone whos played RQuake with me knows it.
Imsomnia --- a lengthy series that was confiusing at first, but it is great now that I know teh way around.
Event Horizon --- That was one badass mofo
Azure Influx --- It was a pretty cool map, just not alot of ammo
Evildead cabin --- I've played this atleast 10 times in the past 2 days.

I don't think it applies to ID maps, sniper.

[Baker]

I don't see why he couldn't, but it's awfully n00b to do so.

I don't think I care

Maybe I should have phrased that differently, but a lot of map authors have invested a ton of time and effort -- an unbelievable number of hours -- into making some of these masterpieces (and there are a ton of them.)

There isn't any wrong with liking the ID maps. I like the shareware episode E1M1-E1M8 very much and enjoy playing it in single player every once in a while.

But at the same time, the single player element of this site more or less exists to promote the work of various map authors who spent an enourmous amount of time to make these things (for free) and usually solely out of the joy of making them.

There is nothing wrong with never having played any of these things. Many Quake players have never played any single player except the one that came with the game. I know a lot of players that have played at the RQuake server had never experienced a lot of these type of things prior to connecting, except perhaps the IKS series and the Terra maps at FvF.

No. After playing almost as many custom maps as you, for perhaps 5 years, I'm liking the id maps better than ever. It's in no way noobish to like them because they are fucking good. sniper, good choice.

1. Nehahra - simply the best
2. Insomnia czg07 - I know it�s a cliche, but this was one of the first maps I played and it blew me away instantly
3. Nesp09 - because Necros roxorz
4. Day of the Lords gmsp3 - I like castles in Quake, and this one is just epic
5. Necrobrood by Kona - like his style and the texturing in this one
