File Description
All those items from T2P were impossible to balance, so I got rid of them. Now all you have are scanners around the map which you can use (limited by your 'energy'), and nothing else. No shuttle to confuse the newbies. Added an epic outro scene (in case humans win) and a few other cool touches, such as the death sequence and edited some terrain that I found 'boring'.

Conceptually, it's almost a standard 'the thing' map.

Open source. Triggers not so well organized.

This version does not have vehicles, the T2P one does. ;) I'm glad you enjoyed it guys.

I agree with DeV this map has the most concept of any Thing map made thus far and it's quite fun. This map is also supported by Black Colored players so that eliminates the flaw of accusing someone by color. Staying alone usually works if you are in a vulture since it's the fastest unit, also the Thing itself can use vehicles to kill other players, not many people use this to their advantage. The tutorial is also very helpful, if you read it carefully...

I recommend this map to everyone, it's a must-have for every fan of mystic ambient and cool concepts. This is by far the best The Thing map ever made, in this you can even drive cars (tanks) (if I remember right) and it got some nice notes lying on the ground or computers to reinforce the ambient (original dark music of the movie of The Thing + everyone got a black player-color which just fits to the installation-terrain set up).
Another positive thing is, that every game is different, it always depends on who is the thing (random) and how the others behave! Staying alone around is almost a sure dead as soon as the thing is next to you.
On Lan-partys this map is highly recommend because you can also look around and take a look who behaves strange or is just laughing all the time :D , na seriously, then it's even more fun.

Great work, JaFF, great work.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
