DOOMER BOARDS PROJECT # 48 HYPE THREAD

xeepeep

Guess what you are dead fucking wrong. Have you even bothered to play the beta 1.1?

Aliens the Ultimate Doom was an even bigger file, and I am not going to go over all of the accolades again. Nobody fucking cares about that bullshit size of wads except Uber nerds.

That's not what I said. As Joe ilya correctly remarked, large file size is a "red flag" for Doom mods generally.
Not yet but I don't see how is that relevant to the fact that you're overreacting


No. But at this point we all know Doomworld is run by retards. Being mad about it is like being mad that your dog shit on your carpet. It's a fucking dog. Dogs are stupid. It can't help it.

Fair enough guys

DBPs with titles like : Spaceballs: The Quest For More DBP Maps and Cyb's Freaky Colonoscopy work because there's proper presentation of an establishing theme and good screenshots, your project has none of these, it only has random pop culture references thrown together, hardly a theme, and a rudimentary gladiator arena as the only thing to show as a preview.

You also have to realize that not everyone knows you, not everyone knows about your previous projects or your founding of the Doomer Boards or about 40oz's approval of this project (which is hidden from public view), so your thread can look like a malicious joke at DBP's expense to someone who knows about the DBPs but not about you, that's why I think someone removed your thread.

Also I've taken on the project mostly on my own with limited free time. No thanks to the likes of you. I deserve a medal just for that. Thankfully at least some people contributed some very good maps.

The Curse of Knowledge strikes again. You know your mod is awesome; you can feel it in your soul. Everyone else (most especially on DW) doesn't know who you are and just sees some random person bragging about how great they are in a post whose only real content is an unintelligible trailer video of a far-away monster tornado in a GSTONE bowl.

The arena of monsters look like you're going to have to fight them because, well, in 99.999% of Doom mods that's what they are there for, and that doesn't look fun at all. What's going on inside the arena is distant and seems like complete chaos. The announcement post is hyping up something as if everyone should be excited but the content in the post is too weak to support that. What people see is something that is indistinguishable from the ocean of poor content they're exposed to on a regular basis.

You haven't exactly been, uh, receptive to feedback in this thread. But I'm trying anyway because I think you put a lot of work into this and if you fix your presentation it will improve the exposure it gets by a lot.

My take is:

1. Assume the player expects your mod to be shit, and work them up from there.
2. Summarize (in words) and showcase a few of the key new elements (graphics, music, mechanics) so the player knows what to expect. Do this one-at-a-time so they don't get lost.
3. Introduce your background upfront if you think it helps ("from the maker(s) of...").
4. Less is more when creating a "teaser"-style trailer.

Maybe you know all this; OK. I am trying to help. If I am not helping, I'll leave this thread alone from here.

schizo-posting all over this thread

The project reflects it's leader, it's a completely unhinged mess. Nothing about this seems focused or planned, it's just a pile of assets all fighting for attention. The awful repetitive pinging of the radar ringing between crowds of zombie/monster ear-rape, the complete drenching of the screen and map in red, the multiple weapons using the same weapon sprite, the ugly hud. It's all a fucking mess, Kontra. With you screeching at anyone who so much as casts a sideways glance at it really turns everyone off of the project, player and mapper. Nobody wants to help you because you are acting like a rabid maniac. Do you think your lashing out will convince anyone to want to work with you?

Throw it out, start over, and fix your attitude. It's shit buddy. We told you so.

Your ego is the size of Xeep's giant (content removed).

Most DBP mappers aren't even banned from Doomworld, if Doomworld were concerned they would've banned cuppy, lunchlunch, Kontra Kommando, pixelfiend, Glikkzy, kvsari, NoisyVelvet, a2rob, matador, Dannarchy, Chris Moyer, SilverMiner, and so on.
But they didn't ban them.

I think that is just a shitty subjective view of the project. Frankly, I don't care what you think. Because ultimately, you will be a minority.

Your post reflects the fact that you are a hater. A person with repugnant sensibilities if he cannot appreciate an Aliens, Predator, Terminator, Jason, Doom, Seagal mod, with a thrash metal soundtrack. So I don't give a shit who "we" are.
