I didn't find (dunno if they were available) any rocket launchers or lightning guns which I believe would have spiced things up a little bit - now it got a little repetitive after a while.
Took me a bit under 20 mins. I died once by falling into lava and then a few times when those three Shamblers spawned right in front of you (I saved in a bad position and almost made it impossible to continue).
Quite Decent

scale is impressive, brushwork gets a bit repetitive and plain but its fun even though it doesnt go much beyond horde combat.
There was a bug with monsters sometimes spawning right in front of you, sometimes right in your face.
Nice start.

it was done with purpose (ie an ogre)
maybe it was bad idea

I dont think its a good idea, better gameplay options available than that.
also, I forgot to mention that I was glad to see kinn's baddies again, they should be included as part of quoth IMHO, very good fit into regular quake.

Maybe so, but if they were hidden I missed them. I really don't look for secrets.
Btw, why aguirRe's GLQuake doesn't allow you to change resolution in game? I'm too lazy to bother myself with command line parameters so I ended up playing the map in 640x480.
Also, always include installation instructions in the txt since people who are playing their first Quake maps have no idea how to launch maps especially when they're in pak files. I also noticed that "game" command doesn't work in-game in GLQuake like it does in FitzQuake.

you should create a batch file with something like a (glquake -heapsize 65536 -game bod -noserial -nojoy -noipx -nocdaudio -width 1280 -height 1024 -bpp 32) cmd line
Nice

Oldschool fun.
The horde combat did get a bit repetative; a bit more chaos could have helped - more infighting, maybe giving the RL / LG on higher difficulties and throwing some of the other enemy types in - the spawn would have worked well to shit the player up and add some good infighting moments.
I was a bit let down not to see more of the shufflers as well - especially the brown berserker version, though I'm not sure if that's Bastion progs only.
The second half of the map was better for me, since the hordes were less because of the smaller areas.
I had the same developer bug as well, since all my autoexec's have it in, with the engine defaulting to id1 autoexec if there is none.
Luckily I checked here right after the first bridge / knight ambush so didn't lose much.

Here is my demo - just up to the point when I got bored:

This map is a great effort with it's scale. It looked good in places with grand design. Had also a nice fight with fiends on a walkway.

I mean Mac users cant play it. But Mac users cant play Warp either.
I would like to dispel this rumor, as it is not true. Darkplaces runs on mac just fine, at least for me. Darkplaces runs warpspasm and this map.
The only caveat I should mention is that it looks like the latest darkplaces releases don't have a mac binary, I had to go back to the feb 22 08 release to find one.

Architecture's above average, but texturing and lighting fails. Combat's not much fun either. Still, a promising start. It'd have helped if the map was a little smaller in the first place. Here's my run:
