More on that topic discussed by YongYea. It's all about money and particularly which titles can potentially deliver the most money. It sucks for the involved developers because most of them genuinely care about the games.

Skipped this season. Anything good happened?

Made my morning, man! Iceland is just absolutely stunning. What gear did you use for filming?

People care about first impressions. You need to put some effort into presentation.

Pretty good stuff here! It's really helpful and entertaining going through this. Would be cool if others shared as well.

@El_Exodus Thanks, but I feel like I owe a lot to Alex Galuzin for coming up with this challenge years ago: http://www.worldofleveldesign.com/categories/lev…-in-11-days.php I just adapted it to fit with the cs:go level design workflow.

@will2k Thanks for reminding me of that game! I'll look into it for some studies.

@blackdog I did have a playtest for the initial blockout. It brought up a lot of issues which I corrected during the following days. I haven't tested the new version yet, but it's scheduled for next week. The city is indeed flat, but I think there is sufficient height variation in the map. You should really load it up in game and check it out.

Here's a bonus image from the first playtest:

A bomb defusal map set in the city of New Orleans. Terrorists are on a mission to cause mayhem in the french quarter. This map has been designed as part of a personal 11 days level design challenge. Therefore it is still very much rough around the corners. However, if sufficient people show interest, I will consider bringing it to current operation visual standards.

Time for a cup of nostalgia and a few heart pills.

So in the first video it's basically Half-Life 2 Deathmatch with just the AR2's secondary fire? which can also propel the player into the air via a "rocket jump" mechanic?

Then you mention that you're switching to Unity and going for a class based system with each class having their own weapon loadout. Is it just that one weapon that behaves differently for each class? Are there more weapons? If yes, how is the first video relevant anymore? I checked out the reddit and moddb pages, but I couldn't find more information regarding this.

I don't mean to sound negative, but it seems very vague or at least vaguely explained. What are you looking to achieve with this? Is it going to be a portfolio piece?

Nope, but would watch.

Watched this last night. Made me smile so many times. Ridiculous, yet good. Can only recommend it.

That's how HDR works. You can try to tweak the exposure parameters through an env_tonemap_controller entity. Read more about it here https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Advanced_HDR

Alternatively, copy the light settings and skybox from Saint Lo.

Linda Hamilton is making a comeback in the new film!

@blackdog come on, man! when are we going to see a map from you? I'll draw you a layout just to get you going

I've been playing this for the past three weeks every night with a friend. God damn fun!

Though, the matchmaking is awful.

Oh and @blackdog, it's awesome. The cartoon is right of there with MASK, Transformers, G.I. Joe and DinoRiders.

Just wait until they reach puberty. Have fun, man!

Also,

Oh, that's cool. I see it's planned for a Steam release as well? A bit late to the party though. How is it different from the rest of the lot: l4d, zombie panic: source, contagion, no more room in hell, etc?
