  • New alien game

    Quote from Vilham

    Im pretty sure i know what each role is gunna contain so i put the level design position in the ap.Marks, how can i send it to you?

    I was more curious about what they consider a pure game designer. Kinda.

    BTW can anyone tell me is it good to apply for both game and level design position in the same application or will that reduce my chances?

    While I wasn't intending on applying, since I'm a nublet, I thought the same thing.

    Couldn't find any more info on what the roles entailed so it's hard to say.

    easy sunshine no need to get all agressive. i live in sweden now and i would hate for us to cross paths and be all angry over something i said on the internet >:L

    anyway, i don't know how it will be handled. my guess is they kick people off and then pop up a little link for you to buy the map, something like xbox live and the modern warfare maps etc.

    pfft, it's just general internet barking, no grudge involved.

    can't be angry at a guy with such an awesome portfolio.

    Furyo: Yes, that is why this deal is in place.

    I just think there are pre-order bonuses that are better... but I digress, business is business.

    I mean, I see the reality of EA needing a round in every chamber to go against MW3...

    Still, the naive hippy-ass community-centered gamer in me isn't exactly in love with the approach.

    But I'll shut up now!

  • THE DOOR CHALLENGE: Rules and Discussion

    wait wait wait... testing? ... feedback?

    I thought this challenge was all about people making a map on their own without any form of input or rational examination and then letting those maps collide with reality at the end of the contest?

    In other news... I finally have time to work on my entry again! Yay! Damn my job stealin' mah time. No longer!

  • Battlefield 3

    yes, i'm so fuckin clever.

    tell me oh mighty rick how else they would approach this?

    if a server runs a map I do not have it's either:

    a, they let me play the map FOR FREE*

    b, they prevent me from playing on the server

    c, they kick me once the map comes up in rotation

    *the most likely option...

  • Battlefield 3

    who said modern warfare and crysis 2 were good examples to follow?

    If you want to charge for content in this type of game, it's better to do so via a full-fledged expansion so that the distinction between non-expansion servers and expansion servers is very clear (like in BF2). As it stands now, you'll probably have servers with a very mixed rotation and you'll get kicked once the server switches to a map which you do not possess. It's not very user-friendly and kind of dickish.

  • "Modern Warfare 3" ??

    Quote from D3ads

    Which will look nothing like the real thing just like the "FSB" in MW2 and the soldiers will all be made up again too. Russians being the bad guys again? What is this 1988?! I thought they left that stupid storyline about the Russian invasion of the US in the dust... such a thing just would not happen. I'll certainly play it, but I'm not paying a penny for it.

    lol

    You gotta have evil russians and plot holes the size of the moon.

    It's an american blockbuster shooter...

  • Battlefield 3

    I'd rather have everyone have the maps so servers dont have to kick people when one of the new maps come up in the rotation.

    Itsch pretty schimple.

    It's not about you getting more maps. It's about other people getting less maps.

  • Battlefield 3

    Well... it's pretty stupid either way.

    Throw in cosmetic stuff for pre-orders imho, like:

    Alternate, more badass skins (that still fit in the art style and not too extravagant).

    Exclusive weapons that are identical in stats to non-exclusive weapons.

    Cooler badges on the scoreboard or some bullshit.

    Something like that anyway.

  • Crysis 2

    Congrats man! Must be cool to have a shipped map

    I haven't started the game since a week after launch or so though because of the hackers.

    Have they addressed the problems? Like... the one where you can edit gamefiles to get unlimited energy etc.

    EDIT: Search for it and while it is not explicitly stated, all indicators seem to point at it.

  • Portal 2

    But if you haven't played ep2 you... can't... play... Precursor?

    Which, contrary to popular belief, is the best game made. Ever.

    Any person who says it's even more of same old HL2 is probably a racist. And has aids.
