This game looks very promising, but I am concerned it will share a similar fate as L4D in that very few maps will be available upon release. Does anyone know otherwise?

Thanks

Pretty sure the SDK is being released on launch (unlike L4D) if you look in the level design forum you can see a few people have already started on some custom maps.

Imagine the amount of players that will be unleashed and exposed to KF now that it's featured on steam. You KNOW the veteran KF mapmakers will be back around to revive their maps in the new KF, AND all the hundreds of new mappers that will be introduced to the game via steam.

The Zombie Panic! Source community went from a total of active players of about. . .30-60 players at a time (on a GOOD day), to about 600+, the DAY of it being released on Steam. So I forsee the amount of new maps easily exceeding the amount of currently available maps within the first month of release. . .that is unless the game totally crashes and burns. . .in which case we have a bigger problem on our hands.

I don't think a shortage of maps is going to be ANYTHING to worry about. :)

Thanks Surukei

I have my doubts but if its in the hands of the creators of Red Orchestra I think its safe to take the plunge (just preordered).

I think we've confirmed 5 (don't hold me to this) but we already have more in the works, and I know the community is ready to port more over from the mod.

Is what was posted by a TW dev in another thread, so this gives you a general idea ;)

Maybe we should create a seperate thread listing all the classic maps we'd like to see remade?

I would second swamp... and I also would like to see the return of KF_HappyHour

Yes, but after the release obviously since we don't know what they will bring out already :)
