Hypov8 has released his new DM map called Hypoville North which is a reworking of his earlier Hypo Urb map. It's a cut down version of Hypo Urb but is still medium to large in size. Of course it's set in an decaying urban environment so fits in well with the KP theme and is a high quality map. It has ample weapons and items, 17 player spawns and one or two surprises. Thanks to Thief|Meph who made the monkey mod levelshot.

The are ample weapons and items in this map including two HMG's. The map includes some rats and fish, breakable boxes, and weather effects (its raining) for mods that support them. Thanks go to Hypov8 for the nice lightning effect and to Thief|Meph who made the monkey mod levelshot.

"New HMG Arena Map Released" posted May 7 - 8:33AM EDT by Mr.Damage
As previously reported {New}Misfit has been working on a new DM Map for Kingpin. It's now finished and actually comes in two different versions. Both versions are included in the zipfile. One version, called NeW HMG Arena, features only the HMG, of which their are eight, and some pistol mods. NeW Arena is the same map but features all the weapons.
This is a smallish arena style DM map which only utilises a few different textures. The map has two levels with a small building in the centre of the upper level accessed by four walkways. There are ramps in each of the lower level corners to access the upper level. There are 16 player spawns and some rats and dogs included, for mods that support them. Thanks go to Hypov8 who helped out on this map :)
