Rage - nice :slight_smile: Just finished it last night, ending sucks as everyone says lol. Map looks like it is coming along nicely.

Your work on this map is amazing and the map is almost of production quality. I almost do not dare utter my feeble words, but: 1) It needs a few details textures (like a stain on the ground/wall, displaced floor tiles, useless grates or whatever) to break up the sterile look and 2) ditch the advertisement for commercial products, it’s plain ugly (advertise your own maps/servers instead or something else (like ideas or thoughts)).

(Ashog) #164

I was actually also thinking of sterile look, which is imho not great. But i was thinking more of green mold on e.g. the tunnel walls, concrete struff, etc. rather than stains, but both would do. The thing is, I guess Don will place details later, after gameplay is ok, imho now it’s too early for that.

About the ad shield - as many already said - this is a fugly artificial solution to sniping - it is not worth of Don-the-Bob’s genius! :slight_smile:
Why not planting large bushes/trees all along the edge/top of the wall instead of the shield?

ps. so u didnt implement sound+light steps on the floor (Michael Jackson style)? Needs only four notes sounds :slight_smile:

Thanks for the comments, they was very kindly received.

The ad are not more for cover, its just there. there is no use on gameplay.

Was not bad! Almost noone on Strogg knew where the transmitter is, but still it was quite a good game. Much better than previous version with xplosive obj. And GDF forgot to use the tank :slight_smile:

The only thing is I am unsure whether the only entrance corridor to transmitter would be the choke point - GDF can just plant 3-6 mines there and Strogg will never be able to transmit (just a guess tho)? Maybe 2 corridors instead of 1 would be better? But yeah, the transmitter room looks cozy now :slight_smile:

Here the avaliable entrances for the strogg on third objective:

(Khamul) #176

Lol good job, nice changes.

(Donnovan) #177

Hehe! :smiley:

Now its easy to do, Ashog. People commonly fall on the hole when trying to do it, on B2.
