Maps Media v.51, Post relevant comments here

*viKKing* Skulls And Bones Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 4,249 Joined: Oct 12, 2006 It may no be specifically a bug, but a comment or a remark. A mapmaker is not integrating bugs, only features.  This thread is only relevant to media v.51, as of today. I'm of course hoping nothing serious will come out from the updated maps. Thanks for posting anyway. (I could do politic, I'm a perfect liar)  ......................... vet cont zom slay2013 marshal wv Posted Aug 8, 2007, 2:48 pm Last edited Aug 8, 2007, 2:49 pm by *viKKing*

Luckily this time around I started behind the enemy at 69m range. Needless to say they did not even get a chance to turn around before I shredded them. Could easily have been me on the receiving end of rockets! ......................... vet Posted Aug 13, 2007, 9:36 am

I haven't seen the other new map yet unfortunatley. ......................... vet deathrce1 raceL1 race1 combat1 northernsummer gateautumn elmsautumn deathrceL1 semiprocombat wv cont Posted Aug 13, 2007, 10:00 am

This thread will be locked once a new bunch of maps will come out as well as fixes. I'll take a loot into the problem you mentionned. The fix will be included with the new maps, I'm currently working on; the road between Elmsfield and Gateway, as it was requested.  ......................... vet cont zom slay2013 marshal wv Posted Aug 13, 2007, 10:07 am

I wouldn't recommend getting a lorry on that road.

The NPC's have a tendency to not brake and thuss end up de-cliffing themselves at that corner and I guess it should be fixed. ......................... vet deathrce1 raceL1 race1 combat1 northernsummer gateautumn elmsautumn deathrceL1 semiprocombat wv cont Posted Aug 14, 2007, 10:04 am

Edit: oops. I missed this one. First time I'm hearing someone complaining about a NPC spawning in the wrong way.  Quote: The NPC's have a tendency to not brake and thuss end up de-cliffing themselves at that corner and I guess it should be fixed. Yes, Sam will check the code as soon as no one is requesting new features... oops!...  I will check again on my side.

Forever Yellow Skies and Pathways to Darkness do not offer this currently.  Why would I have let the enemy close to 70m before deciding to do something?  Why would I have let myself into the bottom of a valley while being pursued. If the start locations were random, that would be one thing, and the current start there in the valley could represent a bad scout roll. However, since scout roll only seems to factor opposition strength and front or back start locations, a neutral location that at least offers choice for the player would be best - since all other precautions that might have been taken are not gameplay features.  Almost all the other maps offer options.  The following do not: Quote: Pathway to Darkness favors the team which starts from behind - 70m distance, car rifles don't miss.  Highway to Hell used to be like this.  It was changed.  Please change the starting distances for Pathway to Darkness. Quote: Forever Yellow Skies.  That valley start needs to be moved; the previous start location offered greater play variety.  The current start offers very little play value. Empirical evidence is best, so put your best guys in your best cars and start out in front of a gaggle of NPCs on either of these maps.  I guarantee you'll have some excitement. ......................... vet Posted Aug 21, 2007, 6:49 pm Last edited Aug 23, 2007, 8:24 am by Kelaparan

*viKKing* Skulls And Bones Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Contributors Posts: 4,249 Joined: Oct 12, 2006 Presented that way I feel much more willing to do the change... Scattered Grounds as requested then, but like Pathway to Darkness it will be pending an update: namely the Lost Trail from Elmsfield to Gateway. ......................... vet cont zom slay2013 marshal wv Posted Aug 23, 2007, 2:45 pm

Thanks Vik, take a look at it when you get a chance.  Those two maps just rankle me lately sorry, there are other maps that can be nasty depending on what you drive, but Scattered Grounds and Pathway just gives you one option; hope your armor survives long enough for you to turn. Oooo, the lost goat trail to gateway, can't wait. ......................... vet Posted Aug 23, 2007, 10:09 pm Last edited Aug 23, 2007, 10:09 pm by Kelaparan
