Looks good to me, seems very original. I think the storyline gives it some point, in my opinion.

Umm.. yeah, I kinda make a few maps.. work on a few mods or whatever.. yeah that kinda thing.

Yeah backgrounds are good especially before a map if released, because it can give us ideas or hints about what we might expect to be in the map.
"Nod commandos have successfully attacked Nuclear Reactor TX-1448."
Well with this we know the reactor is GDI and Nod is the offensive attack force.

"Coolant system and control rods damaged. Lethal radiation detected throughout facility."
This might imply that there are areas in the map where you get that slow burn when you walk in tiberium. Also that main entrances might be destroyed or blocked off and you have to find alternate ways around the reactor.

"All staff and workers dead."
Uh well not sure about this one. Sounds like GDI is all dead except one guy or maybe GDI security force was called but when they got there they were dead. Or maybe this could just be superfluous.

"Nod landing craft at beach."
Gives me that overlord feel except nod is attacking GDI instead of the other way around, and as that first pic orca shows us, we can probably be expecting reinforcements at nod landing craft.

So you see background is good, because it tells us what's or what might be in store for us Wink Very Happy

I haven't been able to work on the map for a day or so because I wasn't at my home computer. Anyway, here is exactly what I have to do:

1. finish graphical parts of the map.
2. get helipad script to work
3. balancing (beta testing)
4. vis
5. vis bug check (beta testing)

I should be able to get the map out whithin a week at least, at most maybe 2 weeks.

C&C Tropics Readme:
This small island off of the Bahamas is being battered by tropical storm Gordon. Heavy winds and rain have been reported and the island has been long since evacuated. A Tiberium meteor has slammed into one of the mountain ridges and is spreading the so-called plant further across the globe.


Now that is not any less a storyline than the one in my original post.


It's not a storyline. It's a description of the map, which is the part you so obviously omitted from your quotage.

I don't give preview storylines to maps. They're just maps. I describe what they are, why they are like that, and maybe who helped bring it to become a reality. I don't need to overemphasize what I'm doing, which is one reason why a lot of my work is so popular - people can relate to it and aren't drowned by some storyline they give not-a-shit about.

As for scrinstorm... How can it be your favorite map if it isn't even released yet? I'd like to figure out what's going on inside of some of your minds... :rolleyes:

Do you even read what is written, or do you look at a few words and believe that's the entire case-in-point? If so, well done, you're a fucking idiot.

The description of the map is just that - the tropical storm part explains why the map has wind that is so powerful - it makes the rain come in at a 45 degree angle, continually shifting its heading as it comes in. That is not a story. It's a description. The description of the Tiberium meteor on the mountain is just that in itself, so...

I just don't see how you can argue at all when you have nothing to argue about - you're wrong, bluntly stated.

Not explain why the reactor is leaking and the nod boats are sitting off shore or on the beach?Its the same as your saying yours explains why theres wind.

How about this?[list]Description: Nod commandos have successfully attacked Nuclear Reactor TX-1448. Coolant system and control rods damaged. Lethal radiation detected throughout facility. All staff and workers dead. Nod landing craft at beach.[/list:u]There, now its a description. 1 word makes all the difference, right?

Dont you see how petty this is? The guy has a quote from you in his signature. He obviously looks up to you in some manner. Maybe you should cut him a bit more slack than you do for the rest of us “morons”.

That's a storyline. It gives superfluous background information that has almost no relevance to the map itself.

The name-calling, as you so eloquently put it, was out of frustration of dealing with people who have so much to say - yet have so little to contribute and lack so much knowledge on the subject matter they attempt to argue about.

Hellweed, I must kindly ask what, if anything, you have to do with this. I realize he puts a quote of mine into his signature. That doesn't mean he looks up to me. I don't really care if he does, either. It's his choice, I have nothing to do or say about it. He's more than aware of me being brutally honest in what I say, so would you rather I lie and give praise to something I don't believe should be praised?

The map itself looks fine. It looks like he studied some things I've done and techniques of the lead level designer, which is a good start. Yet he's not going to improve his skill by doing deathmatch\assault\whatever maps. C&C mode maps are always extensive and must be well thought out to be a good level.

I'd rather see him do a C&C mode map than some fanciful map for a game mode that not many people play.

Ok Ill give you the name calling bit.Especially sine I dont know anything about making a map.Although I do know a good amount about playing the game and Im not sure whether that bit about attempting to argue was really directed at me since you started arguing with me.I still dont feel Im arguing.Its not like online arguing will get either of us or anyone else for that matter anywheres.Im quite sure you just ignore or disregard half the stuff people say about you just like I ignore the insults youve said to me.

Now if thats superfluous information how is your naming the tropical storm really any different?I dont see it as different at all.And its the same thing I said about land when you released it.Its up to the maker of the map to do it as he sees fit.If he wants to add a storyline(which I really think you did as well) its his choice.Let the community judge whether or not his map is good.

Maybe maybe not.For all we know he came up with that without any assistance from you.Then again maybe he did follow in your example.

I do agree that he should do a regular map instead of a deathmatch map since its much more likely to be used and enjoyed then.

And honestly I commend you for giving him as much as a chance on his map as you did.Its alot better than some when Ive seen you bash and flame them endessly.Maybe your getting better or maybe it's that you think he is skilled and deserves it where the other did not.If so you have some pretty high expectations.

Well thats it for this time.Im sure theyll be plenty more to post about after you reply.

Why does it still surprise me that you would ask something like that?

Don’t you know? I’m Member #92! (keyword "member") In the new Renegade forums we are all created equal.

I say dare to dream, break the mold and ignore the neigh say. Make the plot as in-depth as you like, for it can only add to the game. And really, if you get right down to it, that’s why we're all here, isn’t it? To keep this game interesting and alive. Isn't it?

The nay-say is my opinion, and my opinion outweighs everyone else's here when it comes to maps.

You'll notice that I don't critique vehicles or characters, simply because I don't make them. I offer advice and opinions in my field of expertise, so it's up to the person I opine to, and only him, to decide what to say about my opinions. I don't see why anyone else has the right to stick their heads into this when they don't have any experience in it.

It's like two systems administrators for IMB arguing with each other and someone from the street trying to tell them to act like they would in that situation, ironic because they've never been in any situation like that at all. :rolleyes:

Just to be technical he never actaully said he wanted comments.It was just a statement that he had a map and a few screenshots.So since it wasnt a thing that was between the two of you only none of us are sticking our heads into it.

And as far as your little analogy to the system admins.Maybe to you.But notice I never said do this or do that to the map.I dont have a right to really say that.But for some reason you always think you do.You may make maps and even some real good ones at that.But outside of the renegade community your a nothing.Hell Im sure theres people int he community who dont even know who you are.Now thats not to say Im any better.Actually Im quite sure Im even less known than you are.But theres a difference in the fact that I dont go around acting all high and mighty like you do.Youve made your share of mistakes of that Im more than certain.

And in other posts where Im sure that happens it can be solved by you private messaging him.They cant intrude on your conversation if they dont see it now can they?

Just something you might want to consider for the future.But I guess youll settle for intruders as long as everyone sees how your better than the new map maker or have a better map coming out than him.Or that he sucks.Or anything else that you might decide to post.

Oh well do what you want.Its not like it really matters I guess.But you shouldnt complain about something you could easily prevent.

Just listen to how pompous you sound. Do you hear yourself? Your opinion is still just an opinion. Same as all the rest. No more, no less.

That’s kinda true except, you’re not an IBM admin, you create “Excel spreadsheets” and I’m a “Excel” user, not a man on the street.

I play this game as much as anyone and I do read the ReadMe.txt. You’re arguing over the contents of a simple ReadMe file!!! Do you even realize that?!?! Its not a mystery, its not code and its not "magic"! It’s a “description”. It’s written word. It's a storyline. How on earth are you going to tell him what to put in his own ReadMe.txt?

Do tell us...
