i know the mod is about to come here and tell me theres already a post about this, but im not really requesting people. im more of telling everyone what my maps are, and that i need people to help me get them to the public faster. They are Chaos Theory, Turkey Fest, Shotty Snipers (The Map), Floodgate, and Vampire. Chaos Theory is an Assault game on High Ground, loosely based off the multiplayer mode of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. The attackers (spies) spawn at the beach, the defenders (mercs) in the base. The mercs are better armed, but the spies have items and bad invisibility. The defenders arent alloowed to leave the base, but they can shoot as much as they want. Every person has 5 lives. Use cover and the advantages given to you to either plant or defend against the bomb. Turkey Fest is kind of a mini game on Guardian. Everywhere except the sniper thingy and the main circle is (badly) closed off. the turkeys (not the guy who spawns up in the sniper area) must run around in the circle area, while the hunter (guy in the sniper area) gets 1 minute to shoot them as much as possible. When the minute is over, another person will be chosen to be Hunter. After everyone gets a turn, whoever has the most kills wins. Shotty Snipers is the map equivilant for the gametype by Bungie, taking place on the (also badly blocked off) beach of Last Resort. There are lots of hiding spots and cover, for use of shotgun or snipers. While there are options for both strategies, the snipers are slightly more favored to make it a more skilled gametype, with a good mixture of Shotty and Sniper. Floodgate is my Infection game played on Isolation. The humans are holed up in one of the underground rooms, with pretty normal weapons (pistols, shotguns, 1 BR, a turret), but also one sniper they accidentally left behind in the weapon holder, which you can risk your life to grab, if you wish. theyve also stacked up explosives, but one bad shot can mean an easy opening for Zombies to abuse. Your objective is to survive for 3 minutes until reinforcements arive, whereupon a rocket launcher will spawn. You must grab the custom powerup which lowers your health to 10% (yes its not a good powerup generally), then shoot yourself to get 3 points. You only get the points if you can kill yourself, and if anyone abuses it, you have to kick them. Vampire is a Juggernaught game which can kind of be played on any map with a custom powerup. Every player gets 2 random weapons with infiniate ammo, including the Vampire. The Vampire has 500 health if i remember right and 2 or 3X overshields (cant remember atm), but is steadily loosing health from being in the sun. He can stay alive by feeding on people (inflicting damage gives him half of the damage back to his health or shields). After you kill the Vampire, everyone has to let the let Vampire get the custom powerup, so his health will go to full. Taking down the Vampire will net you 3 points, killing as vampire will get you 1 per a kill. Its harder to be Vampire than it looks! anyway so i want to release some of these but i still need to tweak all of them, need to get screenshots, and i need to fix the maps up a bit. While it would be awesome if one of the Forgers could help me out, i could (kinda) do it myself,i guess..but i really need 7 other people to help me test out each one... so..what do u think?
I'll try Floodgate because I want to see how that ended up turning out. I'll play it tommorrow. (Is there a download for it on your fileshare?)
there might be, i dont remember...if it is its probobly outdated..ill be playing tommorow for about 3-5 EST, then i have to go out of town for the weekend , but if u catch me by then ull be sure to be able to get my stuff
I joined your game yesterday. That shotty snipers map was lets say... unfinished? The spawns were broken, and why was there a Scorpion!?
Insane... just as a note... when people typically say something is place "for fun" then it probably shouldn't be there. I know I've said that a few times... and every time I ended up deleting it (and that is why testing is crucial).
the shotty snipers map was a well conceived map. However I'll agree with the above post that the Spawns are a bit bad, especially for that sort of gametype, also I think if you're leaning mostly towards shotty snipes as a gametype you should delete the ghost, it'll end up being whored eventually. I only say that becuase you said you where leaning more towards skill. The matches we played last night where some of the few shotty snipes matches that I can say I enjoyed. The Floodgate map and settings really need to be tweaked, and generally you should let people in on the rules in the lobby of the game first ;D
i tried! those kids just wouldnt be quiet so i kinda tried to talk over them but i guess nobody heard me and the ghost is extremely hard to get, its all the way up on a floating pallet, if u can somehow get there without getting sniped, i salute you. even harder, try to get the active camo or the overshield...the custom powerup is easy to get, but can be hard to defend, its being slightly modified to somethin a bit more fair..the spawns have also been adjusted, i think their better now but of course they need more testing. i decided i'd kinda block off the outside, because you ARE allowed to use sniping spots anywhere in the map, however theres nothing really good anywhere. i cant remember who did it, but someone found an amazing spot right behind the wall where he could snipe us and we'd have a really tough shot (if you remember i noscoped him from around my spawn point, some crazy shot there )
Well if you want to be sure it's absolutley perfect before you realease them, i'll definately help you playtest once my new disk gets here.
i don't have another $60 to go blow on yet another copy. I had just got the Legendary edtion from Amazon.com for $60 this week. Gave my Limited from launch to my father in-law for x-mas and scratched my brand new copy last night .... kind of a bummer. Plus Microsoft is replacing it.
guess it make sense...i know how u feel tho i think it feels like ur wasting money...i had to buy guitar hero twice...or maybe i dont cuz i buy around $1000 worth of gaming stuff a year
administrator was the first word that came to mind, if u got a better word, say it either way i plan on working on a new sig on sunday, probobly (calvin johnson wot wot )
Rightfully so! I played floodgate the other day with you Insane and Ill say that it's one of the best Infection maps/ideas/gametypes on Isolation that I've played. =] Looking foward to having fun again. I also would like to look for your help on getting my construct slayer map(Kill pen) in order again... it got Blam!ed up... =[
yea i told u we had to redo it ground up from a canvas...and btw they were kidding about the administrator cuz of the signature thing :
