dynamic test chambers, they always change everytime u play, and i mean a lot of changes.
it's like, not probable to play the same testchamber twice.
that way, replayability is ensured.
thoughs?

L4D2 style, but better. Me like!
Probably the only way I'd play it more than twice, yeah.

its impossible to maintain quality gameplay, while randomly generating chambers...i mean a mapper must design his map in every aspects, and a random generator cant pair up these things...
the only possibility is to store chamber-fragments like lego blocks, and randomize these...but if you played trough, and learn all chamber-fragments, it'll be boring too....so that helps not much

What would be better, is if there are a number of "sections", that are randomly combined (BUT they are made by a mapper) and, sort of said, "construct" the level on the move, depending on how well you did, what you did, etc.
But the number of those sections must be very high, so that it doesn't feel predicatble. That, alone, is hard to pull of, but I trust VALVe and their amazing talent of making impossible things in former games possible in their games :p.

I think it'd probably be much easier for them to just regularly add challenge maps ala free DLC.

playing the same map over and over without any virtual change means people will get really boring after a while.
