Yall ignore that guy.. COD4 will never be as good as POE2. Its like the Crysis/COD4 argument over again yet COD4 fans just won't admit what the better games are.

i lol'd, we were polishing this map before COD4 even shipped.

Didn't realize it takes over 2 months to polish one map. I just want someone to admit at least notes were taken from the mp Bloc map & sp version. And yes, I already know it's a actual place.

I can tell you exactly how old this map is....it was conceived before 12/28/2006. How do I know this? Because I started to make a Chernobyl map based on the actual reactor area. I discussed it with michi, (the creator of Pripyat) specifically the need for certain static structures to give the map a real authenticity.

I can back this up completely because I created a rough heightmap of the Chernobyl area based on Google Earth screenshots and uploaded it to my Filefront page over a year a go...and it's still there:

The map simply morphed over time into what is now Pripyat.

So you couldn't be more wrong. And.....that isn't even when we began discussing the Chernobyl idea....it had been tossed around for months before that.

Chernobyl on POE2 forums started on September 4th, 2006.

Here are the SS's from my PC as I was making Chernobyl:

A beer for Jaws.

The map was planned a long time ago. It is CoD4 which seems to have stolen elements of its story from PoE, not vice versa.

I agree with Lobo, It seems a waste to hide such beautiful statics on a dark map though
