End2 is a revisited version of the classical End.
Purpose of the map
- The reason for making a new version of End is primarily because of the competitive issues. The issue is that the map require a "gentlemans agreement" how to play the map with unwritten rules: to not be laming or stalling the game by delaying yourself, and instead head into the fray at the center platform. This delaying is possible at these two areas:
- The pathway towards the water which is used in single player,
- Behind the cliffs up at the teleport spawnpoint.
- Besides these two fixes the map has 100% same geometry as the original End. The spawnpoints or any other geometry has not been moved 1 pixel away to preserve the same gameplay of End.
(the visible cracks in the center platform is still exactly the same as the original - these cracks cannot be shot through to deny rocket splashes)
Lore
Shub-Niggurath is a fictional creature often mentioned by the writer H. P. Lovecraft. She is often associated with the phrase "The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young", also described as "The Lord of the Wood". Lovecraft explicitly defined Shub-Niggurath as a mother goddess, the "All-Mother".
