Doom Map Talk #5:Across The Blood Sea (TNT Revilution)
0Every megawad's penultimate stage has the distinction of being that buildup before the final map, Evilution's map 29 was a letdown for me, "River Styx" because of it's confusing layout and the ammo famine it gives, A map with 600 plasma cells but no plasma gun is a serious flaw in my eyes, Despite that, It does give a build up before the boss map Last Call, This map which is not only by EraDrop but also scored with it's own unique midi track by EraDrop throws the hammer down and makes one of my personal favorite TNT Revlution maps.
Across The Blood Sea follows up where "Superweapon Facility" ended, Map 28 when we reached a rocket to land directly outside of hell's supercomputer, Now, There's just one thing left to do before we confront this supercomputer and that's wipe out the data mainframes of hell in this hellish UAC facility on a massive sea of blood, and Let me tell you, I make it look easy here, Don't believe for a minute that TNT Revilution is easy running it vanilla style with no mods.
Across The Blood Sea is PACKED with enemies from hitscanners to high tier dangers, even boss monsters appear through this map which has closet traps cranked past 11, Expect every door to open, every wall to lower, and even pits to rise, even teleport ambushes appear at the most un-suspecting times behind you and in front of you, Ammo placement could be better as you will need every bullet, shell, rocket and plasma cell to get out of this nightmare.
The outdoors area is downright insanity with pain elementals, arachnotrons, TWO(!) Arch-Viles and Cyberdemons appear once you hit a switch to gain the BFG9000 and open the final door for the yellow key, After that, it's just a run for the teleporter that will warp us to the supercomputer, EraDrop's mapping, much like with map 21, Bloody Garden gives a vision of a futuristic industrial hell with machines and more, and his track "Last Deep Breath" adds a level of excitement to the map and prepares us for our final battle, Between these two maps I find Bloody Garden to be just like Across The Blood Sea but if I was decide on one that stands out all together? Both are impossible to judge since they use many memorable setpieces, That's a testament to EraDrop's quality control.
