Very nice looking map! Looks like it could of come right out of the single player campaign but then cranked to 11! I watched your making of video and that was cool how you took a couple pieces of original RF concept art and made it a reality. One of my top 3 favourites from today's game night!

I absolutely love this map. BATEMAN has done a wonderful job of realizing one of the coolest unused pieces of Volition concept art into a map that looks far nicer than it ever would have if Volition had built it for the original game.
Most striking for me is his use of large light glares/coronas in combination with fog to perfectly establish the tone for a dusty and dirty below ground complex built into a mine. BATEMAN really has an eye for details like those, and this map is a master class in that. Fantastic work here BATEMAN! Your RFU5 and RFU6 maps have both honestly become some of my all time favorite maps, and I really hope we'll get to see more brilliant work from you down the road. |

You'll always be one of my favorite mappers.

⚠️ This review was written for an older revision of the file. The comments may not apply to the newest version. Reviewed as: RFU6 - Live Mines (Beta 1) Live Mines is incredible. When I read that BATEMAN was recreating a scene from Volition's concept art, I was hooked immediately. After seeing it, I'm incredibly happy that Volition never attempted this scene, because I'm certain BATEMAN did a far better job than they ever would have.
This map captures a mood I've not seen effectively captured before in a Red Faction map. It's difficult to describe, but between the fog level and the orange light glares (glare_center), it gives the impression that dirt or dust is lingering in the air - very fitting for the setting. This map has some serious character and it's awesome to see. Also, I'd be remiss if I didn't at least mention the turrets. They're damn cool. They work far better than I ever would have expected them to have before I played the map. Between the turrets in this map and the chaingun in RFU5 - Shadowgrounds, BATEMAN has really shown his talent for this sort of thing. I do agree with Mitzi though - the memes, while fun, are a little much. For pubs and scrims, I'd very much like to see a "clean" variation of this map with the memes removed. |

Reviewed as: RFU6 - Live Mines (Beta 1) Dude, I cannot believe how much you down played this map to me and said it was crap, however, the day we got to play this map, I was stunned! Visually the map is stunning! You truly captured a work of art for this map based off a concept art made by volition. Why Volition did not hire you when you were a baby is beyond me! But very excellent map. The best work I have seen yet from you and hopefully will continue further in the future!
