I am so antsy to see this trailer... it sounds like it's taking a while and that's usually a good thing.

Screwed sends me the trailer evertime he makes a big change to it and It looks really good! Its up to 3.4 MB tho! Hopefully we will be able to compress it to a signifigantly smaller size. As for the map, just to warn you all there are many puzzles you must solve and not all of them come out and tell you what to do. Some puzzles will require good teamwork, others will force you to split up and solve ur part of the puzzle while ur teammates solve the other parts. Some of them are rather hard and take a lot of patience to complete, so don't get angry if it takes you a while to do it, if u have a lot of problems with a certain puzzle you can PM me and ill give u some information and help on how to beat it. The map will be hard to beat and does require teamwork which is why i would reccomend people playing it with 2 other humans and 2 computers (3humans, 2 comps all together) I will let u know some more critical information to staying alive on the day the map is released. Im really looking forward to the day its released and i hope most of you are too.

Shinra you could do the thing where the person becomes infested and is an enemy because hyper alliances wouldn't allow the infested person to damage the other aliens. They could still help i guess by telling them whats ahead of them. I dunno. What the hell would the person do though besides try to kill his former teammates?

If you and a friend were playing and you died wouldn't you still want to help your friend besides even if i let u be an alien thats redoing all the triggers and add a "Non alien" switch to them so u can't do human things while ur a Alien and no with over 300 Triggers that isn't going to be an easy task. So even if i wanted to there isn't really enough time for me to redo all those trigger sorry

I got bored in my Civ map and decided to allow full naming of each player for everything, i have ten civilization, i've hit to 1000 trigger mark and just over half way. Only got 50 strings though i know how to save them!

Hey shinra 300 isn't really alot dude. And you shouldn't put a limit on triggers; you should do what ever it takes to make the map as best as it's gona be. But I know you have a deadline and adding all those trigs would definatly take a huge chunk of time. Plus those trigs are the worst kind there are. 'Copy' 'Change player' 'Change location' ...arg i hate them!

The trailer was tight. It set a mood for the map where I just wanted to play, you all know that feeling. I don't get that too much these days... but when I do that's what keeps me playing Starcraft.

As the big day draws closer, I have another NINE ! screenshots of my biggest test yet we had 4 people there with 1 computer. (Me, Screwed[SEN], Durst., Chill.)

Seth = Me
Sarah = Chill.
Darren = Screwed
Cid = Durst.


Screwed really getting into the game lol


Me Resquesting that the person playing Sarah mixes the herbs together.


Screen shot of us out on our own.


w00t 6 Kills I am teh ownz0r


Screwed tring to get us to ignore some enemies


Us attempting to solve a puzzle Cid is gone


Me planting a bomb for no apparant reason lol


Darren (Screwed) decides to join me over near the active bomb lol)


BOOM ! lol ouch... = =''

There you have it the final screenshot Im going to show you before the release of the map.

NOTE: Please do not ask any of the people who played with me on this map to see the map.

LoL

In Game Feelings:
- Firstly, I think there is a great taste of reality because of the AI and the gameplay as a whole.
- The atmosphere generated by unit speech and the puzzles are really tense
- The puzzles are really great got to pay attention though... otherwise you mite get stuck in a place forever without a clue on anything to do (not really.. you just lose the game basically )
- Team-work is very important, like the last puzzle we screwed up. If you don't you'll get no where. I think team-work is what Shinra is trying to emphasize.
- Great plot, best ever seen. Everything happens progressively... not just pointless killing.
- The spells are great, add a great aspect to the map. You use them in different situations. Which I really liked having each character to have their own particular role.

Hope this gives you some idea on Shinra's map
I know (and most people know), that the real map will not let your hopes down.

This will be my last Post until Saturday night when i will post the release of the map you all have been waiting for. Of course im going to post some hints and information on how to stay alive when back on earth, and I advise that u read it instead of just downloding the map and playing it without knowning controls and such. (I would put that in breifing but who ever read the breifing lol) I think you guys will like the map and enjoy playing it

You shoudl put it in breifing anyway...

Just because most peeps dont doesn't mean if someone tells them to read brief they will...

At least people who dl it ofa b.net... get droped.... Can stilll play...

(that last bit was about me... my comp always drops.. )


PS: Chill was the only smart one to walk away from you idiots with an active bomb... if only you could pick up the bomb and throw it at Chill.... LOL

I say put that junk in the brief. I HATE when you play a complicated map and you tell people to read brief but they don't and the first thing they say when the game starts is..."what the hell do i do"...or..."this map sucks; it makes no sense".

Its not hard to understand what to do, its just like when i first played the map with a new tester and I switched characters he was like "Oh, you can switch ur character? how?" things like that i guess should be told, the Inventory system is basic, the switch characters thing is droping the unit you want to be out of the dropship and it switches for you. I have also deciede to take out the 6 Item limit but the safehouses still exist, but you must find them to get the items inside. The reason i took out the 6 item limit is because, the game is just as hard with or without the 6 item limit. normally you will use items fast and not carry more than 6 the whole game. The reason it is just as hard is because a lot of the map Puzzles have to do with a set time limit. And if you getting massivly attacked u must time your heal just right, if you do it too early it is a waste of a precious heal, and if u do it too late you'll indup dead. I know i said that post up there would be my last but I finished the map early so I have two days to look for bugs, and spelling errors and finalize the map, and that won't take me two days so I deciede to go ahead and post again. Well looking forward to map night hope u guys will be there.

After Earth Part 1 - 27th November Map Night.

AWW! IM THERE! it's today, rite?

Well, my sn is Dark-CPU_Masta, and you can see how far I am in my Blazing Fang RPG. Well, I wanna play this map real bad...

Im here too cant wait till 8:00 or is it 9...

Anyway Ill be on


BnetEast: TheOddAngel

Ok guys here it is

NOTES:
-USE DROPSHIP TO CHANGE CHARACTERS
-SWITCHING WHEN U HAVE LESS THAN 100 HP IS NOT RECCOMENDED


Well here it is, (Told u i would finish it on my deadline )


By the way the very end of the map has yet to be tested because Im not good enough to get to the end and I didn't ahve time to test it by seting switches and stuff to get directly to that prat

Hmm... RE outbreak style. Loved that game. Sure gonna try this.

To not spoil this for anybody, I'll put it in general terms:

The end doesn't work.

You used a wrong location in the trigger that moves the people to New York. Instead, they go to the manhole cover place.

He noticed (it's in the download box). Sucks though...

Not to be mean but i think you could of done a much better job with the RPG, it kept glitching up for me at the computers

Well your the only one that seems to think that it worked for me and I haven't got any other reports about it glitching at the computer part. If you make a better rpg then me, then ill accept the fact that mine could have been better, but seeing as though I got a 10/10 on the map review and have been getting Good comments on this map from everyone but people from aEp and (MC) seems kinda suspicious to me

Based on my experiences, ppl usually say your map is bad but only because they know it's good and just dont want to admit it. It could be cuz they are jealous.

But i really dunnno
