This makes me want to get a PS4.

yeah looks like it might finally be time

Nice!

The composition of the architecture in your rooms is a tad boxy. More than is even necessary for modernist stylings. Try to mentally address your straight lines, see if they're necessary.

if you had told me 10 years ago we'd still be doing this I'd have said you're fucking insane. But it wouldn't have sounded too bad, either

Setting aside basic issues of having multiple sub-reddits, there's an interesting commentary here at the end about how Play of the Game content deprives some oxygen from the pro-scene. POTG is one of those things you won't really hear critique of, it's an awesome feature that makes for automatic content on the Overwatch sub-reddit.

Seems plausible to me that the ubiquity of POTG posts might drown out other types of discussions, though.

Re-posting some of your stuff here, hope you don't mind. The photos are excellent but your thread thus far has not been very visual. Important to remember that "click-throughs" are usually rare, you should probably show people something first.

Had family VR time today, was sooo much fun. Played a lot of games, nothing really extraordinary yet. But it was fun to introduce everybody to it (and very social! being able to see what people are experiencing on your PC makes a huge difference and makes for a lot of laughs on jump-scares and shit like that.)

I've got room-scale running in a hallway outside my room, even though it's about 10ft by 8ft, it's just not enough space. Wireless cannot come soon enough.

my brother suggested I get rid of my bed in my room to do VR. He thought it was a joke, I thought it wasn't the worst idea I'd ever heard.

• Final compile BSP, make sure it's all 100% gucci.
• Do radar for both levels

And that's pretty much it. Got busy with a bunch of art tests, updated blackgold for secret reasons, also landed a job at Gunfire Games! Past two months have been crazy busy. Thanks again for everyone providing feedback on bugs and stuff.

Lastly I do not remember if I had mentioned this in an earlier post, but I plan to release all of the art from the map on the same day I officially release the workshop version. I don't have any documentation behind any of it (other than comments in the vmt's). I figured it best to have the thread here act as a mini AMA that others can see.

Congrats!

The presence of a narrative really elevates this. I think there are ways you can even further explain the circumstances such as a broken tread on the green tank or rubble in front of it (...and that's why it has stopped and is "static" in the level).

Given that WW2 is lively and boom and explodey, this is stuff people should leverage in their levels.

I want everyone to understand, I am still entering into this contest, but it is with a major fuck you attitude. I am not going to appease to anyone, I work my ass off for free and for a stupid dream. If Mapcore is a professional website it shouldn't associate with whimsical contests.

I supported the extension because it will lead to better maps. If you're hard at work on your map, finding out that you have more time will be good news. This is how it is for me when I'm working on stuff as well, the goal is to ship the best thing you can and time is a big factor in that.

The best advice I can give you is focus on the player. Ask yourself if players would support devs getting some more time to work on stuff, if you do, the answer will be yes because players know that results in higher quality.

Can't wait

Looking quite cool and a major improvement from before. All I can say is keep up the good work

Agreed, at least for AAA

Don't be dissuaded from playing it, you should definitely check it out soon. It's honestly quite good issues aside

I mean, I would totally play Inside again, to look at the pretty visuals and study how the game surprised me, but it might be a bit of a chore because of the intense backtracking and the fact that the actual game itself is pretty frustrating. I think these are valid complaints that you could improve and the game would be even better.

/quitslife

I'm not sure the economics have made sense on single-player for a long time

This was a pretty universally praised game, so it's interesting to see some critical thinking on it

I agree that the actual "game" component here was pretty weak, which hurts replay value a ton. But I don't think this guy adequately accounted for the sheer "wow" factor of several ideas/sequences.
