zpo_The_Thing_1982

A virus has begun to transform the crew of Outpost 31. The survivors must isolate the base and prevent the virus from spreading even if it means destroying the entire outpost... This map is based on John Carpenter's "The Thing" (1982). Most of the level was designed using the film as a reference. The map includes some additional areas of the outpost that were not shown in the film such as the corrugated metal building and an upstairs section. The objectives are based around the general plot of the movie. In the beginning, the players must split up to investigate a shack, destroy the helicopter, and destroy the communications equipment. This first part is designed to split the players with the "investigate" objective taking inspiration from zpo_kerretti's mine objective. The survivors must then find the keys and open the blood bank. Upon doing so they find that the samples have been sabotaged by the infected. The survivors must hold off the infected while someone prepares a new blood test. The player performing the blood test will have to capture a few areas in the base and deliver supplies between them. At this point, the goal is to destroy the base along with the infected. The survivors must gather bomb supplies, that are scattered about the main building, and then set fire to the rooms using grenades. There is a large supply of them and some re-spawn in case the survivors run out. Once the building is ablaze, the survivors must face off against the undead as they deploy and arm explosive charges in the basement. With the bombs set to explode and the stairway to the basement in flames, the survivors are forced to escape via ice tunnels and regroup behind the main building to win. NOTE: The objectives will not work when testmode is enabled. The objectives rely on a round start. When testmode is enabled the round does not officially start. You can test it solo by creating a server with bots enabled and adding bots via the console. Adding one or two bots should be eno
