Well, it's pretty good. Might be an old map but the design is relatively simple and faintly reminds me of DOM-Condemned. Tight DM map for intense action. Would recommend. 8/10 due to decent yet simple design and blitz-ish deathmatching with 11 bots.
Also, I have a new map to rec: Epic Town v2 (DM-XC-EpicTown-2A).
A large map by the renowned Fragnbrag, it fuses several maps from the original set: DOM-Condemned, DM-Stalwart(s), CTF-High, that sewer level for DM... you name it. Heck, the thing even has Bleszinski Boulevard! Not that awesome but it's a nice nod to ONS-Urban from 2k4 (that's the only place I know where there's a Bleszinski Blvd).
However, I would not recommend NW3 here. FPS is already kind of a struggle when it comes to EXU2:BS weaponry. Go ahead and try it, if you want to, enjoy FPS hell
Pros:
-Nice fusing of classic maps
-Good GFX
-Excellent for a large DM setup - 24 players minimal if you want havoc.
Cons:
-Very large map, which means even if you have 16 bots with you you'll still have issues with tracking them down
-Major lag with NW3, maybe even other mods which are high-up in the memory store.
-Layout may turn out to be just a bit confusing.
General rating: 7,5/10. Gameplay is a bit sparse when you TDM, but if you go LMS or DM it shouldn't be prob. Would recommend.
Scr:
These give you a relative view of what the place looks like. It's WAY larger in-game.
