hungry110 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Here are some pictures that we took on our preliminary visit to look at this site. The caves are in the woodland. It's not 100% whether these will come up to health and safety standards, but fingers crossed they check out because they would be a fantastic addition to the site. Sorry for the under exposure in some of the pics, it is darker than a very dark place down there!! Hope you enjoy the pictures, I can't wait to get a gun in my hand and run around this place.

CrazyJ Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm jealous of you UK players who can reap the benefits of such abandoned places. Link to post Share on other sites
RWJP Posted August 19, 2009 Report Share Posted August 19, 2009 This looks brilliant... I'm gonna have to do a trip to this site soon, and the Mall, and the Nakatomie Tower, and the Asylum... etc etc Slightly off topic, how many sites do First and Only have now? 6 or 7? They must have a ridiculous number of staff... Link to post Share on other sites
Utty Posted August 20, 2009 Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 I'm jealous of you UK players who can reap the benefits of such abandoned places. Yeah, with the real estate prices we have, that *suitcase* would never, ever fly over here either. ~____~ Link to post Share on other sites

-Angel- Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Surely its part of 'The Mall' site? Do you guys have any downloadable floorplans for The Mall? Link to post Share on other sites
LordElpus Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Surely its part of 'The Mall' site? Do you guys have any downloadable floorplans for The Mall? The 2 are not connected together so no. As for floor plans I have produced a 3d floor plan which i have been attempting to get into Left 4 Dead, so while not as usefull as a normal blueprint it does give you a reasonable idea of the size of the site.... ignore the commentary. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3474/373565...1f4c4e2b3_o.jpg This is just the basement level which is the largest of the 3, followed by the shop level then the 1st floor. As to the Tunnels: I am so looking forward to the opening game. I think this will be one of the rare occasions our team will use radios as i figure one of us will end up lost in the 4miles of tunnel.

LordElpus Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 4 miles of tunnels will present an extreme challenge to even the best and most powerful radios available to us! Very true, but it will still be more of an advantage than shouting. Link to post Share on other sites
