Why is it all cross-hatched?

The single most boring aspect of online fps play is "sniper warz".

Natural selection has no sniper rifle at all, and it's probably the funnest game I've ever played. Alot of other games are using non traditional snipers as well, like HL2 DM with it's delayed projectile bolt gun and dystopia with its array of non scoped hitscan weapons that aren't acctually one hit kills (one is, but it does more damage at close range then at far range, so that's kindof a non standard sniper rifle to say the least).

Many of the new multiplayer FPS on the scene are stretching away from the sniper rifle thing, because the fact of the matter is, it just isn't as fun. Even in CS the awp has to be the number one complained about weapon.

Eww! Those squares look very wrong to me. Otherwise maybe it could be a nice map.

Why do people never show screenshot made in "TA camera" mode? I mean, the top-down view is the most used when you're actually playing.

Good point hehe

thats true about the sniper rifles, In delta force I'd snipe with the saw while running, i was pretty effective. But crawling for a half hour and sniping/camping bored the hellout of me.

As for why pics are not in top down view, It obvious shows less about the map. though it does bug me how ppl rarely show a metal view of there map,its very important.

I'm just showing my awe and respect by having this avatar, and advertising his website.

It's a tad dark to be honest, but looks quite nice.

I love the look, it reminds me of "Freaky Forest" for OTA...

Don't like the checkerboard, but I love the darkness of it. Am I the only one who's really, really reminded of "The Sentinel Returns"? Darkness + checkerboard + trees.... yes, I think we have it.
