Must have taken HOURS to map. Didnt even have to come up with the concept. Might be kinda fun to play though , woulda been better if it was Kars and Enfields , no scopes.

no overview...come on

Wheres the storyline?

06-16-2003, 03:37 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.......

you could adleast call it dod_springfield_kar_map

06-16-2003, 03:38 PM
yeah....nnooo. This wont work anyway. people move really slow when zoomed remeber? And jumping takes a lot out of you. So what you'll basically have. Is just guys coming out of a corner...and either A: jumping, then crounching(probably, and this is where they will most likely get shot). then gunned down(assuming someones crouched by bunker like theere always is..

or B: walkin out with scope, then getting shot down...

It will be no where near as intense or as quick as the CS version...

And make an oveview like saidbefore atleast

Well, do you know why i started play dod?

1...Because i like WWII
2...Because i was starting to HATE CS!!!
3...Because i needed the REALISM...

Please find a combination on how this can be realistic...

Whiskas
06-16-2003, 03:49 PM
it doesnt have an overview because in the spirit of every CS map, it was built for pure deathmatch.


you want a story?

once upon a time a group of yankees and germans met in a german town called awp_map. the town was poor so they only had a few houses, and the houses were so crappy they didnt have doors and were just mounds of bricks. the people of awp_map liked to collect sniper rifles and lay them in a neat row on either end of the town and let the yankees and germans pick up the sniper rifles and kill each other over and over again. the end.


as for effort:
the map took me so friggin long to make, I spent 5 min doing brush/textures/entities and then it took me 2 seconds to compile it. but i forgot to put the friggin lighting in so I had to wait 2 seconds again for it to compile

SO LAY THE F--K OFF!

There is no need to be imature about this.

Yes the map took 5min he acknoweldges that
Yes it too k no skill he mentioned that
And he also came up with a mighty fine story ;)

ITS A JOKE PEOPLE LAUGH WITH HIM!!

To all of the flamers, stop attacking this fellow. However improbable, some people actually like these kinds of maps, especially on LAN events.

Almost no effort went into this map, but it is a properly compiled map, even though it's only a box with big cylinders.

I think it could've been made alot better visually. I strongly suggest that Whiskas makes another version of this that has better visual features.

Personally I think it's one of the ugliest maps I've ever seen. I'd love to play this map if it didnt look like crap.

Usually that kind of sentiment I understand...but for something that looks like this...it begs to be burned. "This" being the map of course...I can't comment on the mapper, I don't know him. As for the argument that because a lot of CS players play it then it must be good...well no, not exactly, the people who play it might not have the same judgement or experience in mapping. Popularity and "goodness" are different. There are great maps that many people don't know about, and there are some maps that are played to death that just plain suck.

To Wiskas: Cool beans man! I never liked awp_map, becuase I don't like the AWP, but I LOVE the KAR and Springfield, so I'm sure I'd adore this map! I'm gonna get it on my server ASAP!

To Everyone Else: I suggest you all obtain some class., just becuase you don't like a game, or a concept dosn't mean it sucks, any time spent doing something that adds to the community is something worth at least a "hey, nice effort, man" and not a "your map sucks" Thats impolite. Besides, its more than half of us could do.

Insta
06-16-2003, 09:08 PM
But the map does indeed suck. You see, it is not a good map. At all. Its a box, with some blocks. And sniper rifles on the ground.
That does not make it a good map.

Neither is it a "good try", nor does it add anything to Dod. Its digital poo.

Thank you and goodbye.

Not my style of maps, even if it is ugly, done as a joke, made to see what reaction happens, or you really wanted to release and see who would want it. I never liked sniping in CS and in DoD it'd be too easy to pick off people.

Now if someone made that Bunker map from Rogue Spear for DoD, now we're talking. That map was great for 4 on 4 deathmatch. Using that layout with DoD's textures and models would be nice.

I don't know what your intentions were Whiskas, either way doesn't really matter. You seem to be having both sides going.

P.S. Still using that giant cat food can player model?

One can better himself, no? Hulk Bogan did have some valid points and I do try to better myself.

My only explanation for what happened in the iceworld thread was my lack of experience of what to do in such a situation that had never prior presented itself. I've given it lot of thought and came to the conclusion that the personal bashes must stop.

I'm sorry about the bashes.

I must ask all of you to try to crank up the level of discussion a bit. I've realized that such comments are valid in IRC, not on a public forum. Face it people, Hulk Bogan might have a wierd way of saying things that included very long posts and alot of bad words, but bottom line, he was right. We were all a bunch of flamers and we should better ourselves.

You are right, itīs my opinion too!!!

06-17-2003, 06:37 AM
I agree, if you wanna map, make a real map! Not a cs conversion, because there lame and they do not work well in dod. But, good effort non the less. :D

06-17-2003, 06:37 AM

Besides, its more than half of us could do.

I'm not gonna say cs sucks because its a great game, just a different style than dod. I will, however, say that maps such as iceworld and all that sorta thing, don't belong in either game. And if the other half of people tried, then I'm fairly sure they could make this map.

I agree with NC17, the bottom line is that maps like this don't add to the community, they hurt it. If you wanna go play a lan game, there are much better maps to do it on, like dod_risk. Thats a great map for a lan, or dod_ralleigh, or so many others. Maps like this hurt the community because the maps that people actually put time into get shafted when people decide to go play a map such as this that could be done in even under 5 minutes. But posting this kind of map isn't helping out, and its only gonna spark everyone's frustrations and fears about dod becoming another cs.

People don't hurt dod by making bad maps. If you don't like the maps, you don't have to play them. So there's no need to bash people.

I would like to point out that I'm not gonna bash anyone, but I also disagree with what you said. Well, kinda. There are bad maps, and there are these maps. Bad maps don't catch on, for some reason these do. And then people don't play good maps.

People say these are good on lan eh? Well people say that about flash. This map and this kind of map is gonna take people away from playing your map that you worked hard on. Can you really say that doesn't anger you at all?

TheNomad
06-17-2003, 07:27 AM
not really since flash is a great map and is played often.

I dont like this kind of map nor would i play it but theres no point bashing the ppl who make it..it wont achieve anything

Xerent i think u should lock/delete this thread since it is just making a big augument.

u guys dont want to make dod to be like cs..then STOP flaming and turning this forum into a CS forum..we are a dod comunity..not cs

06-17-2003, 07:31 AM
Flash is a great map, I totally agree, but some people just don't have the sense to realize that a more perfectly crafted map beats any one of these style maps and it takes away from people playing it.

u guys dont want to make dod to be like cs..then STOP flaming and turning this forum into a CS forum..we are a dod comunity..not cs

In this lies the ultimate irony, by trying to be different we just bring ourselves closer. I agree, lock this thread.

Dont like it? Dont play it! Someone else like it: let them be miserable with a, in your oppinion, worthless vanilla-flavour.

let me retake that for a while

you have bad maps and you have these kinds of maps.

you can't really blame the intention of a mapper if he made a map because he like that particular gameplay. Whiskas made it as a joke but the para_icethingy was made with the best of intentions because the mapper wanted to do something new.

What about effort? Some people make these kind of maps because they're new at it and this is already a challenge to them. What an experienced mapper can make in five minutes took them two days to figure out. (setting up hammer, compiling, reading up, etc.)

Most of the times: bad maps are made by people who either don't have the talent for mapping or are completly new. The map is bad but the people who made this map had the best intentions or are so new that it was quite an effort for them to make it.

Then you have this kind of map two/three brushes, no lighting and that's it. What are the intentions of the mapper? Some really wanted to make a 'fun' 'non-realistic' map or a 'training map' and others just made something so they can say "hell, I'm a mapper, I made a map so now call me a mapper" The para_icethingy map is made by mapper who had the best of intentions when he made that map (making something fun), my guess is that he didn't want to brag 'look my leet mapskills'. Finally you have whiskas who made this map to make a statement against those same maps.

Finally, you have people who really want to map but don't have the experience or who played years of CS and some dod. They notice dod doesn't have an "awp-type" map and they make something like this because it's easy to make and just like in CS could give them instant success.

Now, untill now there are VERY few awp-type maps for DoD. I would start to complain and bash 'em if every mapping n00b would start to make such a map and post them saying: look at my leet fun map, download it and play it on your servers.


PS: flash ownz!!! :p

Well said! :)

But I like these kinds of maps with fun gameplay. Crap, I made dod_aim and dod_aim2. I just dont like when these kinds of maps look like crap. I tried to make my fun maps look good before i released them.

on a less serious level of discussion:

I'll be releasing kar_map shortly, made in 5 mins with dust textures only! ;)

06-17-2003, 09:21 AM
I was somewhat confused by that Inch :) , but I think we're seeing each other at pretty much the same level.

I know he made this as a joke, or just to get people angry, which is stupid in the first place. But its something we have to talk about because its a serious issue and you can see people are taking this seriously.

Here is my advice to new mappers: go ahead, ask questions, get all the help you can. People on here are usually friendly if you know what you're asking and you can't find it elsewhere. But... people aren't gonna be friendly when you release a map like this. Even if it took a little effort. Regardless, people put their time into maps, and there's a way of going about the community and getting better that will help you in the long run. If you make a map like this for the experience, fine, go ahead, but do not release it. Just use what you learn to help you make a REAL map in the future. My first completed map was far more complex than this style of map, and took me a lot longer, and was a higher quality, but I didn't release it because I realize that there is a standard of quality that should be met. So, I'm saying, if you're a newb mapper, go for it, make this map, even play with some friends if you really want, but no releasing on these boards.



I'll be releasing kar_map shortly

That's quite dissapointing to hear, you already released aim and mini-dust, leave maps like this to newbs and make a real map with your talent.
