Boilingpoint Depository Heist

SUBJECT: [CLASSIFIED]
TIME: January 4th 2002, 9:03 AM
LOCATION: Boilingpoint Depository Bank, northern US.
MISSION: Extract the device from the vault.

================================

You receive a mysterious news from one of your old friend who was keeping his eyes on the Boilingpoint Depository security system. He claims that the bank had some suspicious records. After a careful research, you find out that the building was built for something more than a depository, that it was actually sorely built to store and hide a miraculous device invented by the US government in late 1996, disguising the building as a local bank located in a small snowy town in border of North Dakota and Montana, USA.

Now, you and your faithful friends are on a mission where your team must break into the Boilingpoint Depository and steal the device safely that is stored deep in the vault. The bomb required to blast off the vault door was sent a few hours ago and is currently stored in the loading bay. Every personnel carry a firearm and turrets are installed here and there. In addition, a local military base is located just a few blocks away and the army will quickly arrive after your breakthrough. What's more, wildlife from outer space will also try to hunt you for their mating purpose*. Amidst this inter-dimensional scale of grand mess, your team must fight your way through from one end to the another, and carry the device to your base safely as soldiers will very eager to retrieve, or, in worst case scenario, destroy the device.

================================================================

The map is optimized for 2~4 player coop, although it doesn't really matter. You can do 10 player coop if you want (it'll be quite a mess). It's even entirely possible to play and beat the map on singleplayer.

The map is fully AI noded through the help of built-in AI node editor in HL2:EP2. I've tried my best to optimize and reduce lags in this map, but due to its large world setting, it will lag on low-end PCs.

My old PC had Intel Celeron CPU G550, 3GB RAM and GeForce 8500GT with WinXP as OS. That's some really old PC but even on that rig it was pretty playble (for me).

The map was deliberately developed and tested on aforementioned low-end PC. Assuming your PC is better than my potato, the only thing you should worry about will be your internet connection.

There are many secret features and lots of hidden items throughout the map. So if you ever feel it's a little bit hard, try to find them! In fact, on some occasion, it will be quite hard to go through without the help of these pre-placed supplies.

The map was tested and built on Half-Life 2: Episode 2, and was tested and built for Synergy. I don't think it will work on Garry's Mod and Obsidian Conflict as the map utilizes many Synergy-exclusive entities (OC's a dead mod anyway).
