    Played about 30 minutes of this tonight, and it was really well designed and fun. There were a couple areas I didn't really dig (The big open areas on the outer sides and the CT street spawn are too open for my preferred gameplay style), but the indoor areas are really, really nice. I love the second floor's access methods and view points over the lower areas. Shooting down on CTs from near the T-Rex head is great.

    Glad you enjoyed it!

    I hope to play with more of you guys soon

  • Pre-orders

    The whole idea of scarcity is pretty much obsolete. Pre-orders made a lot of sense when the alternative was waiting in a long line in the mall only to find out that EB games sold out and you wouldn't be able to play Halo 2 with your pimple faced friends

    The art style isn't quite clicking for me, but you can't deny those are true next-gen graphics.

    As much as it really felt natural to hate on that trailer given the really dorky shooting mechanics, when he started flying around with the ship I started coming around and think it could be pretty badass by the time it gets released

    Quote from Sentura

    it might just be me, but pacing in games with a single core mechanic (such as combat) are very hard to do right from a LD perspective. I got combat fatigue from playing halo because there was too much combat, which is probably not the intention of the developers. it seems a given that combat should just be combat and in these run of the mill fps times, nobody really gives a fuck about good gameplay anymore as long as shit sells. brands have taken the place of good games.

    i don't want every game to be emergent like stealth games, but something as simple as a counterweight to the combat mechanic seems necessary. i don't think i would have played half-life 1 to the end if it wasn't for the amazing pacing and balance between combat and puzzles throughout the game.

    hl2 was amazing at this imo. it's something i didn't realize until i looked back on it, those boating missions were crucial to the pace.

    valve really got good at it with episode 2 though. that's a perfectly paced game, especially at the end when you're screaming for mercy

    Welcome to Mapcore! Happy to have you here!

    It looks good

    If I were you I would continue on this project. It looks like everything is in place and (I'm assuming) working well. So polish it up, spend a lot of time on the texturing etc. I think it looks solid but more potential is there, I would study the official maps by decompiling them and seeing how the little details are done, it would add a lot to the presentation

    Extreme improvements

    One criticism: your scenes are still very "noisy"

    I would recommend really restricting yourself and trying to exercise restraint to get smooth, clear surfaces. Not because thats just better, but because it looks better in CS:GO source (a lot of this relates to using clearer textures)

    Nothing exciting imo. pretty generic, safe looking shooter. Halo 5

    Nexus, have you considered writing an article for Mapcore?

    ...

    Obviously you're being weird, NS2 has great maps, that's probably the strongest point of the game along with the FPS/RTS. Tram is amazing. Although I do really like some of the changes that were made to Veil by someone other than me (the shit over the vents) and therefore I can claim no personal bias when I say that map is cool

    What's that song called again?

  • CS_MUSEUM

    RC2 is out on steam and game banana. Seems to be a big hit. I'll wait a few months to make minor tweaks of whatever people still complain about.

    This project is >>>>>DONE<<<<< baby. on to da next one

  • Destiny

    That trailer reminds me a bit of why Bungie irks me sometimes with the tone of their games. It's like they're a bit pretentious or high off their own supply. And the phone thing seems like a gimmick. The art is pretty spiffy though
