That's what I meant. But for now they cancelled the work on Cryo for finishing Storm

Would like to see an environment like Stadium in the game (because why not).

Maybe another closed-in environment might be useful. Like a Colosseum.

Would like to see a dungeon-line environment, where you are focussed on close combat
But maybe this is already possible in Storm, if the right blocks are there.

And i can't see, how an environment in SM should change the overall game play as it is a shooter and not a kind of new driving physics like in TM. Maybe they just going to add new blocks each time to the same environment?
Because i think the handling of a shooter should stay the same. But it would be pretty funny to see one environment going really fast in the play speed, while another one is pretty slow and you need to play cautious.

In th collosseum I'd take, like, an MP or maybe a Thompson (hint! hint! ), nades, a knife, turn on Heavy Metal on my computer and the rushing starts

An environment like that would be soo awesome, that's a great idea! Finished Portal 2 yesterday

Just a few other ideas:

- ancient graveyard
- ancient monastery
- ancient Roman or Greek sports place and temples
- some kind of village or city (not as much destroyed as in Storm)
- oasis, town in sand dunes
- moon, asteroid, or another planet
- south-american or asian jungle
- carribean beach with palmtrees, riffs, wooden houses

well, Storm is ancient enough imho...

As of now, it looks to be quite a challenge to create proper "indoors" parts of maps aside from archways and tunnels. And with no real texturing option (that I'm aware of), I fear that the maps will be tricky to be made interesting/make them stand out.
For competitive play, this doesn't really matter though, so I get why it's like that

At the moment there are not much "housebuild" blocks, but i hope more will be added.
Still, with the available blocks, a lot of variety is already possible.
