Hello everyone, my name is Carsten and I hail from Canada, I just recently stumbled upon this site and was very inspired by what I saw of the community, was excited to join up.

Quote from oxygencube

Ayo! I am new here. I am a 3d artist and SCAD grad. I've been playing tons on Insurgency and decided to make a map. I've heard this is a great place and looking forward to being part of the community. You might recognize me from making the ambulance for hoodoo, a TF2 map made by YM. Anyway, glad to be here!

Hello everyone!

My name is Matthew Barcas, and I'm a level designer/scripter currently working on the Alone in the Dark team. I've been a long time lurker, and I think I finally want to start contributing to the community and be a part of the awesome group here. I hope you'll have me here at Mapcore

Quote from RaVaGe

I didn't read the discussion above, but I completly disagree here, you can't blame the religion, the single thing you can blame is how the humans use their tools and how they behave with them. I consider the religions like tools, like idk, a knive or a nuclear shell, it's not the tool wich is bad, but the use of it. A knive doesn't say what you have to do with it, it's only the person that use it wich determine if he's going to do something good or bad.

So please don't blame the religions, blame the humans that are using their tools in a bad way, i'm atheist btw.

Yes, blame humankind. Still, I get what he's saying because it would be one less reason to fight about. We already have so many.

Regarding the whole Paris thing. I admire the French. When 9-11 happened the focus was on the terrorists. Making it all about them. Now, it's about the people who died and their rights. Everybody is celebrating what they did. Making more and more. To me, that says 'Fuck you' to the people responsible and I for one, can respect that.

Fucking beautiful man! Fucking beautiful!

I have Natural Selection 2 for whoever wants it.

Still applies!

Quote from jackophant

what happens?! D: (tell me in spoilers?)

I know you can hang around in the dining area and Pagan Min eventually comes back. Although I have no idea how you are expected to kill him seeing as you have no weapon.

It's just some funny dialog. Check it out. I tried waiting for Min (a friend said that) but after 10 min he still wasn't back so I moved on.

Did you guys stick around at the start with the torture scene? That conversation was hilarious

It was dark and I was driving home when I notice what appeared to be a crack in my car's ceiling. I wanted to touch it to investigate but this supposed crack turned out to be a spider which immediately lunged at me and landed in my jacket. I pulled over, jumped out but couldn't find it. Got back in the car, rushed home but got pulled over by cops who had witnessed the entire thing. When I told them I hadn't found it yet and that's why I was speeding (in other words GTFO) they stepped back, smiled but still handed me a 195 euro fine. An excellent way to start the New Year. Thank you spider!

Quote from PogoP

After a very... Interesting.. 7/8 months at Sony London, Ive been offered a position back at The Creative Assembly as a senior environment artist. Very excited to be going back (this time with a permanent contract!) and working on an exciting new game

You slut! Nah man, I hope it brings you the happiness you were looking for. Now make me my new GOTY. As in Alien: Isolation 2!

Quote from TheOnlyDoubleF

What for do you need help ? Video Editing ?

Yes. Editing/converting/etc.

Quote from Takkie

@spronyvanjohnson

You might try asking Tig from ..::LvL

He did a lot of videos for lvlworld.

Good one. I'll ask. Thanks!

So we had session 4 last night. Now I can say that this is GOTY for me. The detail and love in this game are amazing. I just had a mission we didn't expect and all we could say was:

We've also found the flamethrower. Even the flame moves with the wind and when you swing it around it makes exactly the sound it's supposed to make. There's so much detail put in this game. I can't emphasize this enough. It's a labor of love making it visually one of the most convincing worlds I've ever set my digital feet in and the sound design, goosebumps all over. Also, still, fuck that alien!

Quote from dux

It's only temporary. I haven't heard a single story from new parents where the beginning was difficult with either work, homes, family, money or something. It all works out eventually. It just takes time and it's a test of character.

It take it you mean "wasn't"? But yes, I have absolute confidence that it will work out eventually. But I have to agree, it's a test of character.

Quote from blackdog

Sorry for getting back at it late. As I said you you already: hang in there!

Are you looking around for some new job possibilities?

While for the family issue, could it be possible to have family look after the baby for a few days, so that you would have the chance to spend some quality time with the wife, just to unplug, relax and recharge batteries?

The plan is to wait for the new merger and see what that means for my job (possibilities) within the company. I'll decide my future there and then. So for the next 5 months I'll lay low, do the work and put in the time. We just had the holidays which was really demanding for me especially since I was so down. But we actually had a fun time, got drunk and laughed a lot. Feeling a bit better now.

Quote from KoKo5oVaR

You really need to get rid of that job including dickhead collegues sprony, and sell that house. Pretty sure things would get better if you get rid of these two burdens

Yes, most definitely. I'm going to focus on myself this year. Really work on myself and try to eliminate all these nuisances. Thanks for all the support guys. I appreciate it!

Looks much better. The roof is also a huge improvement.

Quote from Sjonsson

I've been playing this game for like 5h now and I don't have the nerves to play more than 1h. It's so friggin scary! :<

I'd double the GOTY contender, Sprony.

Oh you're in for one hell of a ride. Or like Cameron said it in Aliens DC "20 miles of bad road"

Despite all my ranting I apparently caved and bought it drunk in the Steam sale on New Year's eve.

Quote from fKd

what is the due date for the updated maps? Gonna make a few changes etc

Still looking for someone to help me with the video so I haven't even started yet

My wife bought me a special mug of Jack from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I've been looking for that specific one for years (mine broke) and apparently so has she. On top of that she bought me GTA 5 for the PS4. God I'm glad that I married that woman!

What have you guys been up to? I had 2 Christmas dinners in a row and now I'm of to a weekend away with the inlaws and family. Merry Christmas!

Started watching this. We're now at the beginning of season 3 but I'm unsure if I will finish it. The show is great, I understand the ratings but Skyler White is ruining it for me. I disliked her from the first episode and it only gets worse. She's such a hypocritical egocentric bitchy control freak. She really strikes a nerve with me. I checked IMDB and apparently she's in all episodes. God, I wish she died.

Quote from xenozoid

Good, I'll update my piece of map during Jan/Feb.

Well, I do aim for an early January release. Just for the record guys.

Quote from phantazm11

I can create an updated version, but it won't be until at least this weekend. If you need to release the pack before then, please feel fee to use my contest submission.

No rush, I won't expect this to be done this year.
