very fun, i like the alchemy system. and indeed it is very difficult
It's cool, but it's kind of crammed and I bought stuff by accident sometimes and NPCs were constantly talking to me as I moved around. When I was running back sometimes so I didn't die, all the guards at the bottom part of the town died over time.. Respawns were way too fast, by the time I killed the guys that spawned, they already spawned again.
ADDITION:
Oh, and you can only get 1 shield upgrade because you don't have a cybernetics core
Hey NPCs are not superman or something.
NPCs can die in my map :D
I agree respawning is little fast, but I would left this map very hard to clear.
v0.91 : Fixed a bug that did not allow level 2 shield upgrade.
Wow, this is a good map love the music and the sound effects! Also i like the difficulty & food system

One of the best rpg's finally made
i couldnt use the lv1 shields, it wouldnt equip them, they would just stay at the top part and not become equipped
what item do you mean?
and what items were equipped at that time?
Nice map gotta say its good did you post it in Sen though.. well you should i like.
Only draw back like all maps sounds make map long to dl for ppl... Cant do anything about that
Well great map
its not equipping the leather glove.
i have adamantium sword and light plate equipped (i have mark of rebirth now, but still wouldnt equip with those 2 on.)
also, how does the gamble determine the card? because i would reload on a save and it would still be the same everytime.
If you have Gauntlets or Iron Fist equipped already,
you can't change it to leather gloves..
Are you sure your gloves slot was empty?
Then tell me which color you were. I'll fix that.
The map determines 4 gamble cards when the game starts.
and another 4 cards when you bought all 4 cards.
It's for blocking save-load cheating.
(You cannot simply reload game to get better cards)
Gamble is gamble.

Be awared, You can even DIE when you got Death card.
nice map =P love the sounds.

whoa dude this map is nice, the sounds are great, the story is nice so far i give it a 8/10

i was player 1, and my gloves slot was open.

grr cant reload now

This map is incredible! One of the best RPG maps I ever played.
I give it a 10/10.
I like the anti-cheat triggers. How do you get them to work?

about the leather glove, it happened to me sometimes too, but i just kept it in equip and after about 2 minutes it equipped

again, GREAT map. very hard, and the food system using the leader board is amazing (HOW do you do that)?
GJ AND KEEP IT UP

I'm guessing that he used a death count and when death count was down to X it remade the leader board with the food thing changed and had a bunch of them for each leader board, or at least something along the lines of that.

that would be my guess too, just having separate colors for each possible amoutn of food
I'll admit, this is THE best RPG I've played. I'd give it a 9.8/10. The best I've played before this was DeathKnights (didn't finish) and I'd give that a 9.4/10. This beats any map I've played. Good wavs, and good and mysterious story. I just love this map.
But, this map's a lil hard, even when I chose easy...

he did say it was supposed to be hard, did you want to just fly by through it?
Did I speak of anything to make you have feelings of animosity against me?

EUD conditions. Thanks to all who developed EUD techniques.
This map blocks almost every single-player cheat. yeah.

Nope.
He's just highlighting the insane difficulty.
You should be able to moving-shot with your dark templar to survive this map.
And, I forgot to say something.
When your equipments aren't equipped, grab it with your drone and try once more.
(that drone represents your hand, exactly..)
The biggest annoying part of the map is the beginning really.. tho once you get your ups n spells.. middle comes easy.. except the Hall of Knights.. Man, they don't ever stop respawning.. and I can't get through! Is there some spell or somethin I need to get???
BTW, GREAT MAP! Loved it.. It's all interesting with the alchemy, how unique the upgrades are, and how they are obtained, plus the spell system is nice.. If they full health, you kno you can use spell.. the dual cast was good too.. hum.. overall it's great. Love how you did the text n stuff.. Tho you really gotta save a lot.. And yea.. thats it!
at hall of knights, was i supposed to destroy the wall with spells? because i went there before i got the ice ring, which never equipped in the right spot so i could destroy the next wall.

You need one spell to enter hall of (death)knights.
But the hall is for high level players.
Though it's placed right next to beginning levels..
