Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
I'm afraid I'm not impressed. Why use the Sarlacc tentacle's model for the bloodworm? It's got issues with the two ends, they aren't capped. If you want I'll fix that up for you, it takes all of ten seconds.
And the Sarlacc pit model for the boss herself....you may be able to get away with it, but as mentioned before it looks kinda sloppy. A fix in that case wouldn't be nearly so easy.
The phantom kneels too much.
And something I ought to have mentioned earlier: in my opinion those health/ammo pickup effects last way too long. It's no fun to play if you have a constant halo around yourself, distracting you.

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
I will definetly take up your offer on fixing the tentacle, but the Sarlaac pit is a place holder for when I find an adequite model for it.

This is the new CHAINSAW by Fiodis!
And the new animations and bloodspill are my changes to the chainsaw guy. =]

Glad to finally see it, although I think it would be more realistic if the chainsaw was two-handedMetalcoreRancor wrote:I will definetly take up your offer on fixing the tentacle, but the Sarlaac pit is a place holder for when I find an adequite model for it.

Fiodis is working on a 2nd handle place.
I've also replaced the Sarlaac pit model of Necrovia with a more fitting Felucian plant.
I think it looks rather nice.

Very nice! Idk if I like the spin though, it looks out of place. Try just the first two swings.

This, ladies (I know there are some!) and gentlemen, zombies and not-so-zombies, is the new chainsaw combo.
I got 235 zombies in on this puppy, before the martyrs blew me to smythereens.

What's a Martyr? I know what they look like, but What's with their blasts? It creates a big lag when they start spaming them in the safe house.

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
They are most definetly designed to create lag in large numbers. Their purpose, their only goal in life, is to creep up to you and EXPLODE.
But they are very weak against any gun.

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
....Aaaaand anyone notice the scrolling bloody chain texture?
On the subject of the combo, as I said before, I normally don't like any combo that makes your unit freeze in a certain position for a bit, I normally like them all smooth like the stock ones, but with a chainsaw this really seems to fit well.

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map

the new anims/combo is much better than the previous one!

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
I agree that it looks to big, but I think that making the blade shorter would make it impossible to keep up with the hordes of undead.DarthD.U.C.K. wrote:the blade is much too big in my opinion

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
Fact of the matter is, I've pain-stakingly arranged the damage nodes to fit the length of the blade, with 2 seperate damage spots. The main blade deals a good amount of damage, but a sweet spot exists near the tip that deals a larger amount of damage.
Either way, the true power of the Chainsaw user lies in his Secondary attack slots. Overdrive, for example, is a very strong invisible machine-gun style melee attack that drains your energy and wipes out everything in front of you, and melts through bosses.
The drawbacks are obvious, lack of energy at the end, unable to attack to defend yourself unless you jump/roll or disengage the attack, which will take time, whereas just swinging the chainsaw protects you and kills zombies every other slash. It really is up to the player how he wants to use the chainsaw. The blade isn't too big, it's just right IMO.

Something I noticed: the chainsaw toss, when you toss it the chainsaw that lands is blood-free, as opposed to the one you hold, which is not.

Re: Games Complex - theITfactor's next map
Hey guys, sorry for no updates lately, been really busy :p
I've finished adding the new upgraded version of the Mario Party Minigame you saw concept tested in The Pwnfest - this time it's going to give out points (like other all-purpose minigames, not the mega-minigames like the zombie apocalypse)
I'll upload a video tomorrow
