Nuclear Dawn looking for Level Designers

[JeanPaul]

What exactly did he do that was so bad? I mean, I heard that he was quite the ass hole, but what did he do?

[SixThree]

Was he the one who ordered the photoshopping, or was that a general consensus?

[Evert]

Mod looks great, and hopefully people here are smarter then the general fanboys and realize that it doesn't really matter what one person did a long time ago, especially since he isn't involved anymore.

so ND is looking for level designers, eh? guys, if anyone wants a head-start into the industry, this is your chance! almost every artist and level designer who worked on ND got a job now

This is true, but it's such a double-edged sword for us. What good are great artists if they leave befire they finish what they started?

I want to make it clear we're more looking for people dedicated to the mod itself, who want to help create and design an enjoyable game experience than people who are only looking for an extra 'beauty piece' for their portfolio or whose sole intention is to use us as a bridge to the game industry.

Obviously if the gameplay for ND is as solid as we intend it to be and the released maps play well enough to keep people interested, your work could well be in the spotlight and if you are looking, opportunities will arise. But for this reason we will probably be pretty tight on showcasing any map until it's finished or near enough there. Anyone who looks like a flake or who turns out to be a flake will be ejected faster than they can say "got headhuntz?". We haven't got time for anyone who hasn't got time for us.

I'm actually skeptic in how far you are in developmet, the last real thing I remember, is that you staged screenshots for that magazine, and I'm sure that just wasn't DaveLs idea.

That happened over a year ago now, I'm glad you're basing your opinions on current events. Dave was in charge when that happened, he even posted the damn public apology on our forums, so it's clear he took responsibility for it. Please get your facts straight before you go accusing our team members of things we weren't in control of.

As for how far we are in development, any successful applicant will see precisely how far on we are when they join the team and have the opportunity to play it first-hand. If people aren't satisfied with our claims I'm sure you'll hear about it soon enough, but we honestly don't have the time to make a gameplay vid just to quash a few rumours that don't really have any bearing on our progress.

You are forgetting that having a gameplay vid will atract developers -> speed up progress..

No, I'm really not. We don't want lots more devs working on ND, we already have 14 active members. All we need right now is level designers and that doesn't merit lost time on a gameplay vid.

Tell Squirelly Jones (MikeV) to go home and rest.

Yeah, he needs one!

By the way, if anyone is still interested, we still have a couple of spots to fill. If you're interested in applying we're now reviewing ALL applications for the level designer positions.

We'll also be on the lookout for environment artists for LD prop support as well, and for this side we're more flexible on people ducking in, doing maybe 4-5 pieces for their portfolio and then bowing out. So send me an email (with links to examples) if that's something you might be interested in.
