played this really recently.. and I must say the "Queen.utx" area is a very ugly area. Chicoverde is hands down my favorite unreal mapper.

This map is one of my favourites. Very moody. Also, doesn't it have "Oh sh*t, the bomb! Ruunnnnnnn!" (my absolute favourite ONP Guy line)

The only map from Chico that I enjoyed in ONP. And it's really good.

Can't remember the Skaarj outpost very well, although the battles were actually entertaining, best gameplay contribution that Chico ever did (really, as I always found the gameplay of his other maps, inside and outside ONP, to be mediocre or bad).

The best bit is the Pupae breeding cave. They are rare in the UnrealSP scene, so they are always welcome. Especially when they are big, and freaking full of Pupae... insane carnage. CARNAGE! :lol:

Still wondering what could ever be the black stuff in the pits of the breeding cave. What is, magic black water or Pupae peep which is to ugly to live in?

Also the-OH SH*T THE BOMB RUN.

The build is as always really high quality, as well as use of textures. Music track doesn't hurt. Also, I like the gameplay here. As for ONP guy lines -well, they were...... funny I think :)

Overally: really good, followed by WipeOut...

One of the best looking levels in ONP (and the Pupae hive is a completely original theme), also quite possibly the voice acting's nadir, or is that zenith :)? The alternative "OH SHIT THE BOMB!!!!" lines you can find in the sound files are even more hilarious. It also has cool sequences like the pressure room (although they should have fixed the amusing bug with the entrance).

The layout is pretty linear, but that applies to most ONP levels, this one at least uses z-axis and other such design to make the level more strongly linked and convincing.
