i really hate how TWI ruins community made maps. thanks for making this map :D

Hey Everyone, long overdue update. Server owners might need to look at this one if you sub to this map.

2 Main things have been changed:
-The Map name has been changed from KF-Biolpase to KF-BiolapseOriginal, so it should no longer conflict with the TWI version.
-The Tentacle Breach/Tank map has had the layout updated to be a bit more balanced

The map still supports Endless as well, so if you haven't already, check it out!

This should be the final update unless there are any major bugs, but from testing I haven't seen any.

Thanks for all your support over the years.

Can you make an endless mode version of this map?

i don't like this map when it's not Endless because i don't play survival mode

This don't work for me on endless maybe because this map is now officially out of beta and now in the game but even that can't be played in endless its a shame as i like it but will only play this if endless will work in the near future updates.

Congrats mate. Tripwire may think zeds get stuck enough now lol.

I like this Map and it will be Official / Biolapse

I've been talking about such map design for a VERY long time. I don't know if author seen my posts about it or he thought of it himself (great minds think a like ;) ). I fell in love with Descent's unpredictable sequence of submaps and it quickly became my favorite map. Then came Nightmare, but I didn't like it's repetitive submaps which totally killed the feel. Biolapse does it properly and adding Endless it'll be pretty amazing. Can't wait for it to officially roll out in KF2. It's gonna be a very cool event I feel...

congrats on getting this map into the game!
this is one of my favorite maps to come from the community and i'm glad its getting the recognition it deserves

Playing this now to see whats different in the final release. Excited.

Hey Everyone! Thanks again for nice comments.

I pushed an update today which makes Biolapse compatible with Endless! This makes Biolapse the first Holdout map to natively support Endless, even before Official Maps!

Maps in Endless will be randomly rotated each wave. The Boss Room will always be selected for the Boss Wave. The Lobby is only used in wave 1.

There were also some environmental changes to further optimize the map, check the changelog for further details.

Hope everyone enjoys the update; with all the lights being destructible, hopefully this should be more interesting now in endless. Also GL on Boom Waves lmao.

Really amazing map, really fun to play on good job

Awesome Map!!! It took me a couple tries to even finish it on solo suicidal (10 waves) and several more on solo HoE (10 waves), even tho I'm not really having trouble finishing other maps on solo HoE. This map doesn't have mutch places to defend in easily and thats what I like the most actually. It makes up for a good challenge solo and multiplayer and for some great fun. This is one of my favorite maps and I would definately like to see more maps like this.I also would love to see this been added to the official map playlist.

@Fastie, it does, but after wave one it should be fine.

Does this map have the same issue as the other official holdout maps that when you go 7+ players they spawn on the next stage?

Massive Update!!!

Biolapse has received a new coat of paint and received a shipment of lightbulbs! The update is a huge visual, gameplay and performance overhaul, in my opinion looks significantly better and provides much better visual eye candy.

A before and after comparison can be found by here: https://imgur.com/a/15ahj82

Additionally the map has been submitted to the #KF2NEWGROUNDS competition. Come show your support here: https://www.moddb.com/games/killing-floor-2/addons/kf-biolapse

As always I appreciate everyone's continued support and hope you enjoy the new changes to the map!

Submit this map into the contest please! This map is too fantastic to not be official!

这么好的图，为啥没人架服务器。。。

@Spychopat - Yeah, that was my 'dark' phase, I've been going through each map and upping the visuals and making the lighting a bit better. I'm planning to have an update by next year, but its a slow process lol.

Map is amazing, but some floors are sooooooo dark ! Even with the flashlight you can't see anything. Add to that the ability to break every light and you get the ultimate black combo.

If The Descent had a Biotics Lab theme to it, Biolapse would be it. Really great map for solo players. MOST of the areas seem to be too small for multiple people.

I can still recommend this to try out

An amazing map. Glad have played with you guys and thanks for the server.

the most amazing map I had ever seen. It looks almost as well as the officlal maps.Thanks.

@灾变主宰 Nah its fine mate, we've been able to kill it pretty easily solo and 6p HoE, you might need to change your playstyle a little bit mate, dont give up!

how can i kill the boss...it's too small

I've been looking through the maps to see if there's any good original ones yet and this is fucking great, good job

This map is just awesome, Great map

I didn't felt like i was disvaluating it but quite the opposite. I was just giving you my opinion to make it a candidate to include it officialy in the game.

@Neuro - Theres copious amounts of details in and also outside the map if you take the time to look. Some maps may look symmetrical but the spawning patterns aren’t – it’s deceptive. They may seem simplistic but at the sake of the player's internal understanding of the map rather than for the sake of being overly complex just because it can be.

You have to understand players playing the map for the first time are briefly exposed to the layout and have to internalize the strategy of the map in their head in a couple of seconds. Then do it 10 different times again, in comparison to traditional maps.

Disvaluing the map because you think it’s too simple is a simplistic way at looking at it. I can't please everyone but I try my best to provide a quality experience for players that you don't see in the majority of custom maps. I would ask you to reconsider your viewpoint and give the map another go with a large team on a harder difficulty –it’s what it was meant for :)

Could have been an amasing map but it is just too basic, every parts of the map are symetrical, and it is laking details and originality.

i don't know if the author is still working on it but it can easily become amasing with a few changes, make the map less symetrical, some parts are realy too basic, specialy the one with a simple cube in the middle.

Iit looks realy promissing (if it's till worked on) and professionnaly made.

Good job.

This should be next official community map..

One of the best maps on the workshop right now.

simple layout but nice visuals. Too easy to win.

Framerate issues fixed. Configuration files on my end were corrupt some how. Solved by deleting KillingFloor2 folder in Documents. Thanks!

@zachdj - It shouldn't be, absolutely no changes that would affect performace should have occurred. I'm still getting really stable and high frames on all sections (as well as my playtesters) - if you could provide further details in the bug thread where its occurring, it might help find your issue.

Map has become a framerate nightmare. What happened?

BEST CUSTOM MAP I EVER PLAYED IN OVER 500 HOURS OF KF2

Very awesome map! Here's hoping your hard work pays off and you get your map added to the official KF2 map roster!

This is hell

great work, seriously, this is a awesome map! i can see how many heart you put into dat...better than the crappy ones from tripwire! u can be proud! like it a lot! keep doin such great maps pls....u are amazing

Good stuff. Gooooood Stuff.

Click the subscribe button just below the screenshots. Wait for the map to download (I think steam doesn't show the download progress anymore), then start up KF2 and select the map when starting a solo match. If it doesn't show up in the map list, try restarting KF2 after a small delay to let it finish downloading.

How to download?

Hey everyone - an update was just pushed, details are in the change notes.

Thanks for everyone's kind words and feedback! I hope everyone has been enjoying the map so far. As usual, if you see anything buggy happen please let me know for investigation, I want to make this map as best I can for you.

I'm not surprised if this gets added into the game's official map pool, mighty fine work.

I'm not normally one for descent style maps, but this was absolutely spectacular, it almost feels official.

Very funny map ; but no doors and it is hard to play this map without doors :/

Cool like a fool in a swimming pool

Amazing!
