Description
I did not make this map, only uploaded to the workshop.

Available at:
https://gamebanana.com/maps/185773

Description:
(There are three versions of this map to accommodate for every server's hardware capabilities/player preferences!)
This map is essentially Pirateship Wars from Garry's Mod (as the ships are taken from this with permission by Captainshaun, the original author of the ships) but brought to css along with some pretty extravagant original additions. The (full) map consists of two main play-areas: Ocean, and Stomach.

---OCEAN---

The Ocean contents of the map consist of 2 fully sailable, semi-destructible, completely sinkable, physics-based pirate ships that each team can sail about the ocean, and attack with. And these ships consist of:
-8 fully aimable upper-deck cannons (4 on each side) that can be used to blast away pieces of an enemy ship!
-A food bar below deck with slow (team-specific) health regeneration and a hidden music button (different songs per ship)
-Ladders on both sides of each ship to allow for quick boarding.
-3 detachable masts! They can be knifed to pieces, or fall down upon the ship taking enough damage. (Each mast lost causes the ship to lose 33% of its speed) -Destructible rotor! (If the rotor is hit with a cannonball, the ship loses its ability to turn)
-A gradual sinking phase once the ship has taken enough damage. (Signified by the ship losing all three masts) -A destructible powder keg in the front lower-deck of the ship, concealed behind a damaged wooden door! (If the door is broken down, and the barrel destroyed, the ship will immediately begin its sinking phase)
-Tip signs to quickly inform new players about how their environment works (mostly just the above information, but with less words)

Players are also limited to only having knives for this area of the map, to encourage naval battles, or hostile boarding! The ocean water itself causes minor but constant fatigue damage, but only on the surface of the water. Swimming just beneath the surface will cause no fatigue damage, but you eventually need to resurface for air. This makes lone-swimming a hazardous but viable tactic for hostile boardings even if the ships are far apart.
Additionally, the Ocean area of the map has a massive sea monster. Her name is 'Drone'. She is given her namesake for the eery low-toned moaning noises she makes when awoken (on a random timer), as well as when she swims nearby. If you or your ship are swallowed by Drone, you die instantly upon her jaws clamping shut. However, if both your ship and the enemy's ship are swallowed at the same time, the game instead continues within her stomach! This is known as a 'Stomach Run'.

---STOMACH---

The Stomach Run contents of the map consist of two Fragment Ships, which are essentially your larger ships, but chewed up and broken into but a small fraction of what they once were. Still mobile, if only just, they have only 1 cannon each, and with each piece broken from an enemy cannon ball, the fragment ship loses more and more buoyancy until it can't even stay afloat with a single player on it.

There are two perk locations in Drone's stomach that helmsmen can float over to.

-The S.S. Captainshaun is a wrecked vessel that made it into the stomach in much better shape than your own ship, but still far too damaged to ever sail again. Inside this wrecked ship, you can find grenades and flashbangs, as well as three pistols to provide you and your surviving teammates with extra power to finish the round.
-Regeneration Goop can be located in a short cavern within the stomach lining. Signified with a distinct blue glow, the healing liquid falling from the purification sac above will coat any players who pass through the small wall of goop, and grant them permanent but slow health regeneration for the rest of the round (plus double the heal rate if you stand in the puddled area while coated) There is also a single deagle that can be found on the middle stretch of stomach separating the fragment ships. A smoke grenade, 2 frag grenades, and a pistol can also be found on the long abandoned viking ships at the entrance and within the cavern of regenerative goop.

-Regurgitation Rapids-

Take note, though: If both teams survive for too long inside Drone's stomach, Acid Reflux will occur! When this happens, the stomach acid your fragment ships float upon will begin to rise and eventually flood the entire stomach, putting the continuing battle on a timer. The only way to survive Acid Reflux is to turn it into full-on regurgitation, and steer your busted up vessel through 1 of 2 possible canals (1 for each team's fragment ship) that lead to the back of the throat. If you and your team are skilled enough to stay afloat through the Regurgitation Rapids, you will eventually wind up pressed into a close-quarters pit of rising stomach acid, where you will have one final chance to sink/kill your enemy, or live and let live as both of you ride the regurgitation all the way to the top, and back out of Drone's mouth.

===============================

What's that? The hardware that runs your server isn't top-notch and causes lag when the sea monster eats ships?
You don't like the file size of the map causing such a long download for your players?
You don't like the Stomach Run in general?
You think the sea monster ruins perfectly good naval battles that would have had a clear victor otherwise? You think the fog is annoying?
You think the ships are too far apart and it takes too long to get into actual battles?
Well you're in luck! There are two other versions of mg pw haze_v2 available for download to fix any or all of these complaints.
(Check the alternate downloads for mediafire links to the individual versions at: https://gamebanana.com/maps/185773)

mg pw haze half v2 - consists of roughly 50% of the content the map was originally built with. The stomach run, and secret ship music are completely redacted, and instead you only have the two ships and the sea monster. This version weighs in at a much more acceptable 54 megabytes.

how about KRAKEN

because the description the uploader used is simply copy-pasted from the half-version of the map on game banana, and the reason the half-version of the map on game banana includes the stomach in its map description is because it's simply copy-pasted from the full version of the map on game banana. I figured everyone would only ever play the full version and the half version was just for niche servers wanting to do much quicker games, so I didn't bother to edit the description for the half version, and the uploader didn't know this so he just used what was present from gamebanana, which is my fault ultimately.

If this vershion dosen't have the sea monster then why do you have the stomach as one of the places

i cant get in the map. i cant see it

I was hesitant on uploading the full version because:
1. two reuploads already exist on the gmod workshop
2. activating the stomach run can be a pain.

That being said, i've now tested and uploaded the map. Instructions on how to make it work are in the description of the full upload. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2188421190

Upload the full one

Actually in the "half" version the sea monster is present but if she eats both ships, it simply kills everyone instead of attempting to spawn a stomach run were it to be mg_pw_haze_full_v2 instead of mg_pw_haze_HALF_v2, which removes the stomach run and fog and ship music, but keeps Drone the sea monster.
Please keep in mind this upload isn't a port to Garry's Mod (which perhaps I could do. I still have all the files and I suppose it wouldn't be THAT hard, I just lost passion for the project years ago) so things that work just fine in CSS won't work completely in gmod solo sandbox. If Mr Death wants to upload full_v2, then I'll provide a guide on how to do the stomach run in gmod singleplayer sandbox for those interested. I tested it and it can be made to work with a quickfix I could share. So long as people know how to access their console, it wouldn't be too hard, albeit it rather boring at times when done alone as the map was originally meant for multiplayer css minigames servers

typera he legit just said its not on this version of haze he will do the full one soon

the sea monster isnt appearing
Aries  [author] 5 Aug, 2020 @ 10:16am 
This is the half version , it doesn't include the monster. It seems that there's enough interest, so i'll just upload the full version soon.
To clarify, the reason it's split, is because of the file size. The full map is double the size of the half.
