Community sinking?! What can we do?

Ok, i�m pretty sick of all these complain and bla bla bla everybody hating each other and what are we getting?

[Kona], Distrans, SPD and many others are simply going away�

What can be done?

1- More people comments the mappers maps and if there is something we don�t like about the map there are many ways to show it instead of killing the people�s will(more positivism).

2- No more community map pack please!!! Always give crap.

3- Contests no delay even if is only one map.

I still think that the bigger machine to make us map is people comments and first runs demos.

So are we going to make something?

Or in the next 10 year we will be playing others fucking games and still with the same negative way of being in life?

I�m not a good example but at least i try.

I LOVE THIS GAME DONT LET IT DIE.

Just because you don't finish it doesn't mean there's no point to doing it. wtf?

Heh

exactly, it's not as if you start a map knowing you're not going to finish it!

frib: your reply to my post makes me regret starting this discussion, heh. i'd say i'm a level designer, i just struggle with some aspects more than others and have a short span of focus :) (with anything, generally, not just mapping!)

Agree With Lun

Though the pleasure of having players actually enjoying a finished map is greater, there is still a great deal of personal satisfaction getting an odd piece of brush work to align correctly, or seeing an idea for a design motif actually work when you get it up in the editor.

A Journey Is Worth A Thousand Steps, Or Something

Although honestly it's not as if when I start something I'm just fuddling with brushes to see where it goes, I have plans and ideas and goals. I really should adapt more of a "what's the point if you don't finish it" mentality. I might finish more that way. :P

I'd Probably Start Less.

:(

seriously, and i know this sounds cheesy, but it's more about the journey than the destination when i'm making something. if i get something finished that's more like a bonus.
