Another Revelations test

[Sel]

As this project gets closer and closer to being finished, we need to be sure that the gameplay is spot on before adding the final bits of eye candy.

As far as everything goes with regards to gameplay, we're all fairly confident that all the major issues have been removed, and everything flows nicely. However we're not sure, and even without major issues there still may be minor ones remaining.

Pretty much what I'm getting at here is that we need to do some competitive testing to push this closer to completion.

What I'm aiming to do is get a few teams put together to play this against one another (Think HCEL) so that issues can be ironed out, and we can finally release this, and know that it'll play well.

I'm aiming to have this up and ready to be played in final gameplay testing in about a week.

It'd be great if we can get enough people to put together some teams to test this out, post here with rosters of 6-8 people if you're interested.

[Higuy]

I'll test with you =)

[ThePlague]

I'm up for it. I'll do some more practice so I get better until then.

[supersniper]

Meh I'll entertain you lot ;)

[teh lag]

i'll do the waterfall eventually i swear

[flibitijibibo]

I'm up for it too. It would definitely help me get the sound synced before making it more... not-rough-drafty.

[.Wolf™]

Sure, I can help.

[Sel]

I'm up for it too. It would definitely help me get the sound synced before making it more... not-rough-drafty.

Speaking of which, I'll probably have a build with it in it to hit you up with later today.

As for everyone else, this isn't just a show up and play thing, it'll be played tournament ish style, in a competitive fashion. (Make teams)

[Ki11a_FTW]

meee

[PopeAK49]

Heh seems like only yesterday that i saw this map half way modeled. I'll test for you selentic. I'll try to make sure i point out gameplay issues if there are any, but also focus on the fighting at the same time....Crap I just hope i don't end up lagging with my crappy internet. Maybe my dad will be home by then and i can install CE on his computer and play. Or I can ask my mom if I can go to her office and play it on her extra computer. Meh whatever...I just hope i can play online to test the map.

[Roostervier]

i'll help

[Sever]

I'm game.

[Angatar]

I'll do it too, if you allow newer modacity members to test.

[Sel]

It's open to pretty much everyone (Yes HPT teams too), the idea is that we get some teams to play it against each other competitively, while actively making changes to the level to keep improving gameplay on the level.

Once me, mass, jcap, con, etc etc etc are confident it plays as well as we can get it to play then we'll move onto beauty, and hopefully shortly after, a release.

Also there have been a few confused messages sent to me about this, and you're supposed to form your own teams of people you want to play with, not someone else putting you in a group :p

[HeCKt!C]

What is max size of rosters, like is this 4v4 or 5v5 or wats up.

Also everyone else, when submitting rosters this is the format to use.

[AAA]

I would like to test this :)

[Rentafence]

Time and place, and I shall be there sire.

[Angatar]

I don't have any friends here, nor do I have a team.

[Sel]

I don't have any friends here, nor do I have a team.

There will probably be a group of leftover people in the same boat as you by the time we start this rolling, and we can group all of you together.

[Cagerrin]

In, definitely.

Also leftover boat =[

[SMASH]

[Sel]

Are we gonna get a PM with the DL link or somethin?

This probably won't happen until next weekend, when it will hopefully be organized.

[SMASH]

Oh gotcha haha I thought it was a spur of the moment thing.

[supersniper]

[LB] = Leftover Boat

Calm down Mr. Furry.

[Sel]

so uh, where's the download lol

so uh, why haven't you read my posts lol

[Joshflighter]

This probably won't happen until next weekend, when it will hopefully be organized.

;)

[t3h m00kz]

Reading...?

Reading is for queers.

But coo, thanks for clearin that up ;D I can't believe I missed that

[sevlag]

so is this gonna happen this week or next? i'd be willing to join a team and hopefully i won't get those painful lag spikes that plague the laptop i use to play CE

[p0lar_bear]

Next week, and thank god, since my PC is down and out.

[sevlag]

Next week, and thank god, since my PC is down and out.
then i can't play, i don't have constant access to a CE capable laptop, i have to go to a relative's house and play using their laptop..i also go there to escape my psychotic sister and my shit headed parents

[Sel]

The idea is that it goes on for a few weekends after that, until we're confident it plays how we want.

[sevlag]

but i don't really get on that often, once every few weeks T.T

i've been thinking about leaving CE because I can barely play any more as the only computer i owned at home that COULD play CE was destroyed by my sister who won't pay for the damages, which include a new sound driver

[Cortexian]

Drivers are free...

[StankBacon]

hopefully he means sound card.

[sevlag]

hopefully he means sound card.both actually, a sound card that i bought for it and the original sound drivers which she made impossible to reinstall...

but yeah sucks i can never test maps when offered because of my situation...

hopefully i can find a job THIS summer (last 2 i was unable to get even ONE) so i can save up for a new comp and some 360 games (no debating, already getting RFG,HW, BK:N&B, and some other shit)

[PopeAK49]

Test it like bungie and play it to see if it's right for the 100th, 200th, and 1,000th time, until it seems as if it doesn't need any modifications, lol.

[klange]

I've got all the time in the world and a perfectly capable system, I can has Revelations?

I'll join Rentafence on his Team Rent, mbmb.

[Sel]

make a team , or join the leftover boat

ps give me the draco :p

[Angatar]

It seems to me that the leftover boat is bigger than the actual teams.

[p0lar_bear]

Test it like bungie and play it to see if it's right for the 100th, 200th, and 1,000th time, until it seems as if it doesn't need any modifications, lol.Wait, Bungie tests their stuff before release? :?

[Sever]

Shit, I've done more testing on Overload than Bungie has done on any of their maps, or at least it appears to be this way, since I created a variant that is fun AND balanced.

[itszutak]

Wait, Bungie tests their stuff before release? :?
I think the problem is that Bungies overtests and starts adding or removing things that decrease the overall flow/fun of their maps

[Pooky]

Test it like bungie and play it to see if it's right for the 100th, 200th, and 1,000th time, until it seems as if it doesn't need any modifications, lol.

Then, when everything is perfect, add or remove something at the last second and declare it finished.

At least, that's how all the Halo 3 maps feel. <_<

[Heathen]

Well you never know what the players are going to do.

When they develop maps they are sometimes played in ways they never imagined.

[Sel]

ok

I promise I will make it 30x speed with the final release

cant hurt too much!

[klange]

make a team , or join the leftover boat

ps give me the draco :p
I think I'll join rentafence in his Team Rent.

Which one? If you spend enough time testing Revelations, maybe BTGII and I will have the DRC-II ready for it ;) ha

[Cortexian]

Use OS to enable multi-team vehicles, hth.

(If it's used map-side it should sync with everyone since everyone's using the map, amirite?)

[Corndogman]

/shitposting

I need a team, I should be able to make it depending on what time of the day/night it is.

[Rentafence]

/shitposting

Team Rent is the best tbh.

[Sel]

There will (hopefully) be a test ready late saturday or sunday, but we may be skipping a new map the next weekend because I'm really bogged down with schoolwork I need to finish up before the 19th. After that it's summer, and I should have loads of time for this.

Anyone who isn't in a team yet, try to sort yourselves into one by saturday so we don't have any delays and issues with them.

[Inferno]

Can me and m00kz be team MLG. We can take all of you guys.

I'll just hide where the map is clipping horribly and you won't be able to see me! (which is anywhere pretty much)

11 character max for naming conventions on Halo PC/CE!

[Inferno]

MLG players don't have maximums. They can buy extra characters with there MILLIONS.

[Sel]

Why is this unstickied?

[n00b1n8R]

MLG players don't have maximums. They can buy extra characters with there MILLIONS.
I believe you meant "their", sir!

[Inferno]

Shut up.

MLG players don't have to learn stuff cause we don't afraid of anything like school.

Also selentic you need to learn how to model maps that aren't 50,000 polys. :p

[p0lar_bear]

I believe you meant "their", sir!

I just spent about three of my MANY MILLIONS to make Merriam and Webster rewrite that.

Bad kid.

[t3h m00kz]

I love you guys so much right now...

My minions... yessss

[.Wolf™]

Im going to Donate my Millions for a good cause..Oh yeah..

[Sel]

Someone re-sticky this.

Also delaying this again, I have to finish a 2 exams, each on the same day (tuesday), and a handful of english assignments to pass that.

So yeah, completely free next weekend yee

[Inferno]

This map is horribad disgusting and fail.
I'm not joking.
Did you fix the clipping yet? Or did my version of the portals not work out?

[Sel]

Your portals didn't work out unfortunately.

I haven't had much time to touch it other than some small things I've been touching up, and UVing thanks to school. But I'll have loads of time on my hands after the 16th or 17th.

[Cortexian]

The flags on this map are going to be AWESOME.

[FluffyDucky™]

What's this HCEL type business? I wanna play! :)
