A question for DavidM

Post by YoYo789 »

You claim that the maps in Armagon's mappack are not ownage (or at least you won't say that they are).

In your opinion, which of the maps that are released with DB are ownage and which are not.

If you could also mark the ones that you mapped (with a * or something) so that we know.

I am very interested to see this, as you seem to be able to say that every custom map is crap, except ice-demon and greenbaize, which both had novelty value but barely get played anymore.

I also would like to know the answer from DavidM.

I played both maps DB Greenbaize, and DB-Icedemon (and many others also did that :) But I would not say, that those maps are Ownage... Greenbaize looks good, but I don't find a reason why i should vote for it on a server... IceDemon, looks and sounds also really good, althought teh ice feeling sucks...

And when we have DavidM on teh mic, iI would say that Cube isn't also an ownage map... It looks really good, teh gameplay is teh simplest, and the best, but The sky sucks, and I just hate it, but DavidM is the mapper, and mappers work as they like, or work as the public like... I dunno where David belongs to, but I know he is a really good mapper (i would not say the best, because there is noone to be called as teh best) and I hope that even more good maps will get into official packs...

That's the whole reason I made the DB Ownage Map Pack. But I doubt it will be supported by DavidM as an official pack.

Of course DavidM won't like it, it doesn't have enough useless world details added and annoying crowd noises to hear the sound of the actual game.

arghhhhhhhh

i REALLY want him to answer this. It's pissing me off so much......

I've seen one half-positive comment on a custom map...it was basically DB-Cube with a different layout

DB-Curve and DB-Tribun were also turned into DB-Cube

GreenBaize is pretty ugly and i don't really like the gameplay much (sorry to map maker).........IceDemon is ok, not great

so PLEASE tell us what maps you like that weren't made by you

i've seen comments such as.........

DB-Clearnight = Too many annoying pillars on the side of the map, even though they barely interfere at all

DB-U is bad and so are all/most of the other maps in the Ownage Map Pack (......but i would definitely rate basically all of them above all the default maps)


i must sound very bitchy right now.....but it's so annoying

it seems that if people make a spectacular map with great gameplay and originality, there's a 99% chance u'll dislike it
