I did not know this mod before, but I just surfed a little to find some info about it. I must say this sounds A LOT like NS. Damn, I thought they had invented it all by themselfs in NS...

Anyways, Gloom sounds really cool so if you can make a mod like then then I think you got a pretty good mod. There are however a lot of other guys who are doing the same for Source. The NS team of course does it, but so do many others.

I think that you have a very good chance if you make it a mod for FarCry or UT2k4. Doom3 probably got too many marines vs. aliens already.

Is the tools/toolsblock_los the material you use to block vis in Source? Like the @ textures for HL1.

It could be like a TV show, you pay monthly and developer release a new chapter or "episode" for you to play every week, or something like that.

The idea is good, but I doubt that any game dev can have a new area/chapter ready each week. That would also result in crunch time each and every day:D

Looks great Erratic, I like the grey style. As ferret mentioned it could improve the first shot a lot by having some buildings at other heights.

Lol, typical RD-style story:D

Back on topic it is good to see a game dev company in the list. Game design does not exactly have the reputation to be a good place to work...

Looks good and like a typical Bluestrike WIP map:) The style is there and so is all the basic brushwork - it is very clean.

The deck of the ship looks a little repetitive with this same blue texture all over. I think you should use another variant for the weapons.

Everyone added except:Zyndrome: can't find

Zacker: can't find (is there an english spelling of Rødding, or a replacement set of characters for ø?)

You can try with "Roedding" instead.

It was meant to be funny not agressive and attacking post. Sorry if it felt like it, I just had to post that image with that quote :>

Yeah sorry, I was probably a bit bitchy because of some other stuff with that pic. My apologies.

Even though it has its share of flaws, then its still an awesome shooter when its patched up n working.

Yep, did you also try the expansion? It really added most of what there was missing in the original Sin.

Anyway, steam, okay, uhmm yeah i like whatever

Nice diplomatic sentence:)

Finally other firms than Valve are beginning to use Steam. I am wondering why this have not happened before.

Yeah, Steam is buggy and crappy in many ways, but is for sure a good idea. Distributing content over the net without having to involve the usual publishers and distributers is THE future imo.

I am pretty sure Valve is going to add some kind of p2p distribution to Steam someday. They could spare quite a bunch of money by having content distributed through p2p instead of the cs way. I guess that p2p was also the reason why they brought in Bram Cohen. Being without him now is probably the reason why it takes so long.

Yep, the Source engine is outdated. When working with it I often feel more limited than I did with the HL engine.

I think that a MMO GTA would be cool. GTA already got the big living worlds, so it would fit.

I love most of the UT and UT2k4 maps, they own most other maos too hard. They are much better made than e.g. the hl2sp maps imo.

Yeah, that also came to my mind when I read what he said then saw the us ranger.

I like those HLR:S shots! Seems pretty good for WIP map. I also hope that you guys make the maps significant nicer than the HLR ones, they had like no detail and yet high r_speeds.

Quite a change from the old SrcSDK. The news about a new mod expo is also one of things which excite me the most.

I like it and I don't mind that they kept the same size. I must also say that you are incredible fast at making maps!

Congrats Evert!~~~~~~~!

Ghost Recon 3 is indeed a cool game to work on:)

This is what I always have been looking for...

Sounds great Dann0! Getting paid for doing level design stuff is really a dream for me. One of the guys at Aalborg University also suggested that I should be the one teaching level design there:)

I think we should simply make mazy.net our frontpage.

Good idea, then I doubt there would be any more talk about "lack of news":D
