this is some great stuff; it makes us nerd not dorks, nerd implies some intelligence.

Errr

as a prime example:

it makes us nerd not dorks

it makes us dorks, not nerds.

Replaying Alpha Labs Section

of Doom 3 last week, I realized I was subcounsiously employing a tactic as I moved through the rooms and corridors. Upon entering an area, I would scan it looking for detailed modeling and keep my back oriented to those models. Monster closets were only made with simple brush work, so it was a safe assumption to
make while playing. Imp sized areas would become pretty much self evident.

I.D. software sounds way better than "eeehddd"

"Game Design is 99% programming and 1% design" - John Carmack

That's why.

"eeehddd" ?

#307 posted by metlslime on 2008/09/09 22:46:58

it's supposed to rhyme with "rid" not "red"

And

"Design is law" - John Romero

id games before romero left: awesome

carmack games without romero: systematic, methodical, repetitive, uninteresting

romero games without carmack: unfinished piles of unchecked ambition

see? it all makes sense

We Really Need To Get Those Two Back Together...

#309 posted by metlslime on 2008/09/10 04:06:29

Okay Here's The Plan

#310 posted by Zwiffle on 2008/09/10 05:04:44

I'll invite Romero over, saying it'll be a casual get together. You get Carmack over here with the promise an iPhone contract. When they meet up, we'll lock them in a room until they work out their differences or one cannibalizes the other to surive.

Something big is happening here, people.

That sounds very similar to a Strafe Left strip I read a while ago on RPS...

"Game Design is 99% programming and 1% design" - John Carmack

One of the stupidest quotes I've ever seen attributed to a smart person. Is it legit?

Apparantly

#317 posted by ijed on 2008/09/11 16:00:29

Got it from 'On Game Design' by Chris Crawford.

Good read, btw.

99% Tech, 1% Design

#319 posted by Zwiffle on 2008/09/11 16:41:57

Gets you rubbish like UT or FEAR. Design gets you Quake, BioShock, Fallout 3... etc.

Well

#320 posted by Spirit on 2008/09/11 17:42:22

In Carmack's case Tech and Design are almost the same.

#321 posted by Blitz on 2008/09/12 01:30:57

Design gets you Quake

The whole point of Quake is that they scrapped the original design and just slapped a bunch of random shit together.

#322 posted by Zwiffle on 2008/09/12 01:34:35

Good designers know when what they've got isn't working and take appropriate action.

*ahem* FEAR *ahem*
