A map is taking form!!!! (sorry for the longness of the image )

Cool stuff! But, when you show the 2d views in Hammer, it looks like all the brushwork is very split up/tesselated. It was hard to see though, is it like that?

Awesome work, sock! Will this be just a scene, or will it be another singleplayer level, like that astronomy level you made a while back?

Can you please put that in comic form.

spell binder , Castle cops went down in 2008 Greg King was responsible for that one . He was making inappropriate posts on the board . His posts were moderated . he replied " If one more of my posts are moderated you'll be sorry " Then is when the DOS attack began .

We would all Love that i am sure .Well if you need me spell i'll be around just hit me up !

It's not a layout, it's a floorplan

I agree that the graphics are nice and the gameplay works for the most part, but the characters really don't work (for me!!). I was a bit embarrassed to play it at work, since other people could see my screen, haha.

Regarding not having the budget or time to do cutscenes to do "character introductions", what about posing the models and then doing paintovers, so you have narrated/written storyboards? Like that other game I can't think of right now.

The presentation and layout and all is terrific! Just get some more content to put up there. The texturing in general is pretty flat and not very interesting, and in some cases extremely photo-sourced.

Also, in this screenshot it looks like the chairs have become sentient.

I'm installing it now! Can't wait to play the singleplayer!

Didn't read, but cool!

Which takes precedence, mapcorians or crytekers?

I filled it in. Some feedback; some of the questions were hard to understand. And a lot of them seemed like duplicates.

2. When playing a computer game...My aim is to avoid performing poorly compared to others

4. When playing a computer game...My aim is to perform better than the other players

6. When playing a computer game...My aim is to avoid doing worse than other players

8. When playing a computer game...I strive to do well compared to other players

10. When playing a computer game...I strive to avoid performing worse than others

12. When playing a computer game...My aim is to perform well relative to other players

Those are all from the same page of a 12-question section. Couldn't those be condensed into just one question?

funny how this becomes a major gripe with games that don't have it. i love stalker but holy shit if you do not save and die, hnnnnnnnnnnnnng

I guess its a compliment to the game, since you're actually immersed enough to not think about saving the game yourself. Until you die, and you find yourself 1 hour back.

Playing RAGE at the moment. It's good, but they should have added autosaves in the levels.

Done!

Is that the scale it will be? Because I think it's a bit too small, and the text is hard to read as well. Also, maybe not go with a stylized font, something easier on the eyes would be a good choice.

Quote from RedYager

I'm starting to think the only way I could have a chance of getting into the industry is with a degree, but thanks to my cock up the chances of being able to go to University again within the next 10 years are very slim. I'm such a fool for ever signing up to that games design course, now that I've quit it I can see how horrendously crap it was.

But just work on your portfolio and keep trying. You learn so much from each map/model you make that the next one is always better. If you're working a crap job fulltime while striving towards a job in the games industry I actually think you're better off than someone sitting in a Game Design class creating a atrocious boardgame while analyzing the fun-potential of dungeons and dragons, thinking that it will land them their dream job as game designer on Diablo 4.

I'll try to sum it up.

If you hate your job and dread getting up every morning, then you're more motivated at working to fix your situation (ie. improve your portfolio and get a job already )

Huge congrats on the release, what a huge undertaking! Downloading now, looking forward to playing it!

Happy new year everybody! Hope 2012 is awesome!! And no end of the world!!!!
