  • Sonic Mania

    I guess here’s the third Switch game for my list of must plays

  • Lightning bug on hammer - anyone can help?

    Hi Gabriel,

    Does your displacement brush face extend below the ground? Often when the ground faces a lot of a brush, it will mess up the lighting.

    Best case is an L shape where the ground and the wall begin at the same point.

  • What are you playing now?

    This sounds pretty interesting, I like Monopoly but ain't nobody got time for dat shit.

  • Mario Odyssey

    Having so much fun with this. Feels like the perfect platforming game.

    My favorite part is how it seems to reward curiosity, and creativity. There are always moons and strategies on how to find more. It’s also pretty funny at times. Definitely a lot of call backs to Mario 64 (Dorrie is back!)

    Has everyone played it?

  • Nintendo Switch

    I’ve also got Mario Odyssey which I can’t wait to tuck into tonight, and Zelda which I did have on the Wii U but never completed so really looking forward to doing it handheld-style.

    So far I’m really impressed with the slick package on offer here. The Wii U was a bit ropey in terms of hardware design, UI, etc whereas this just feels modern and great. It reminds me of when Nintendo surprised everyone with the super sharp Nintendo DS Lite.

    Part of me says I shouldn’t go buy games I’ve had before like Mario Kart 8 and Skyrim... yet I want to!

    I feel like it’s going to take me awhile to get through Mario and then there is Zelda too.

    This console has felt like an awesome one, such a breathe of fresh air to experience.

  • Where'd Sprony go?

    I agree, were that the case it would be a shame. Against my better instincts I'm making this one, last comment on this.

    -Sprony remains a staff member

    -There has never been a message to him telling him he is no longer a staff member

    -On the contrary, we have encouraged him to return and when he says he is leaving, I wish him well.

    -I deleted my posts here because I'm not going to get dragged into commenting on stuff, that, in my opinion is totally misleading. Sprony is welcome here, the decision to leave is his.

    -He will remain a staff member in case he changes his mind on reducing his own involvement.

    Hopefully, this message will serve to answer any and all questions on this topic. I don't want to be involved in "drama" that has no substance. There are only so many ways to say "Sprony is still a staff member and is welcome here if and when he wants to walk through that door."

  • Mapcore FACEIT Hubs

Right now your map really doesn't have a chance to be played outside operations by a serious amount of people. It's been a problem for awhile. A map gets made, and then just lives on the workshop and if it doesn't get picked up by an operation, it dies on the workshop. The best feedback you get is from people theory crafting your map offline or playtests that you set up. Seeing these maps get played, not just mine, has been amazing, feels like a prize just to have your map played. Either way I've enjoyed the last few days. Good job on faceit and mapcore for making this happen.

    It's been a total surprise. We put the playtesting together because of course we want to do exciting things, but I didn't expect the response. I'm blown away by the hubs and the difference it could make moving forward.

    So glad it has worked out and glad you guys have enjoyed it.

    We will probably continue to evolve how we use the HUBs, this is a very new idea.
