I'm not averse to DLC in games as long as it's done correctly. Specifically games like TF2 where the community can sell hats and stuff, vanity gear etc.

I'd love it if id software released a version of Quake that I could sell maps/map-packs/mods on, I know I'd definitely buy them too. And wouldn't be nice to earn some cash for your efforts? 

I'd rather be poor than a whore. 

I'm unemployed so I'm already poor, it sucks monkey balls. 

Unemployment sucks. I went through that last year. Time goes slow but rent bill shows up fast.

When your working you think off all those things you would like to do if you had the time. When you have time your broke. 

As Magneto clearly explained in X-Men 3:

"In chess, the pawns go first ..." 

If Necros is the Albert Einstein of mapping (he is), he should gently tweak others work after it is largely completed, supervising the effort.

He should be grading the homework, not doing the homework.

Many know how to map, the rules, etc.

Necros best contribution isn't that, it is how to put the cherry on top of the ice cream. Others can make the ice cream first ... 

This is why Tronyn enjoys reviewing maps.

He looks at others work and figuring out how it could be improved. How others could progress up the ladder.

/End (un?)insightful [short series of] beer post(s). 

version of Madfox? 

 

speaking of which, there should be some reviews coming soon. Been busy, but I have been doing some mapping. Plus I finally tried Skyrim. Pretty sweet so far. 

Sad to see you are done with Quake and mapping, but thanks for leaving us with such a cool map.

I hope you pop by from time to time to see what's going on. 

Did your email get hacked? I just got spam from you :( 

Because then it probably was legit.

Here's a cool hack 'n slash made by Hipshot I found on the mapcore forums. I really like it, so I figured It'd be okay to cross post it here:

Me and a friend have been developing this little gauntlet inspired hack n slash for the last three months or so, we just outed a public beta/demo of it.

I don't know how much people here play smaller indiegames (I usually don't, that's for sure), so I won't make a too large thread about it, but you can read more and download it at the GL-page.

We hope of course to be able to release this through steam. I probably can not talk too much about how the greenlight process works, but the first three weeks we went from zero into the top #100 and are now at place #25.

What do you think? :) 

because:
1. not sure this is properly formatted news
2. link doesn't work, and i was unable to find this on steam

Looks damn cool actually! 

Looks fun. 

wow that does look cool! Long live pixel games! :) 

1:00 is pure E1M4. 

Tried it out, and the controls are kind of clunky.

You can only shoot in the direction you're facing, which is fine for some games () and nice and old school, but here it doesn't work so well because there's hordes. So often you have to run away, turn, shoot, run away etc.

Maybe it controls better with a joystick.

Going to wander around a bit more, does look very nice.

Also requires a download of some OpenAL thing for the sound to work. 

Hit post with putting the link inside those brackets...:

It's kind of gauntlet-ish. :) 

.. that's what it reminds me... old-ish 1985 years are back :)
