(Please note: I'm still working on the model and such for this. It's not done yet, this is just temporary.)

After about 6 months of fucking around and pretending like I was doing some work on Gridlock and about 14 days of work (with a month of making a new hi-res render every 10 minutes), I've finally gotten Gridlock to a point where people can play it.
The visuals need some work still, as I am well aware, but I want to double-check my gameplay at every opportunity.

Last night was fun playing around with the first 2 Gridlock Alphas, discovering exploits and dicking around in Warthogs. But, at most, we had 4 people at any given time.
They all unanimously said it was "mountains of fun" but it "needed more people".
Although I would actually recommend this map for anywhere from 4-16 players, I would like to cram as many people into a single server as possible.

As such, I am holding a public beta sometime this weekend. I say this weekend so that way most of us will have beaten ODST, and I can have some time to run good lightmaps on Gridlock/make things look as nice as possible.
I would like to borrow someone's server for the test, although I can use my own if need be (I have a little brother who enjoys downloading large files while watching Youtube videos and playing 16 player Call of Duty 4 on Xbox Live while I'm trying to have a playtest, so I would need to get him to go away).


Beta's over. Thanks for the feedback, guys!

what the

Yeah, it's from the old build. I moved the fire and got rid of the smoke. I'm currently running radiosity, so I couldn't compile a new build and take new screenshots, although I will do so tomorrow morning.

E: DAMN YOU RADIOSITY, HURRY UP.

I'm up for this if you want.

i'll beta for you
.....domain was good, this will be better!

you should add some fake volumetric light volumes, but for the rest it looks pretty nice.

i heard inferno quit cause of the rockets xD

will we see the return of kermit?

also, nice job fixing the SMG, did you add the SOCOM pistol?

do testing friday, as a BD present for me :3

Playing ODST right now.
I'm actually surprised at how accurate I managed to make it just by looking at concept art (I used little to no leaked resources for modeling so I didn't spoil the campaign for myself).

As for Kermit: Kermit and I had a messy breakup. As such, I can't get to her Myspace anymore, although I THINK I might still have a couple pictures of her. If possible, I'll throw one in as an Easter Egg.

I hope to god you're joking.
