Read the thread again. They started to joke around about the mod not even existing. Man, do we really need to bring it up again?

[Kathy]

I remember some jokes about it being a hoax, but I never imagined many people were bought into believing it, let alone it being the biggest trolling stunt or fiasco on this forum. The trolling was fairly obvious for me. Maybe because I was burnt by that C&D "joke" earlier.

You have to read the thread again. This is a thread for the released mod, which i created so people can give us their impressions, etc. That C&D prank was not here. And BTW there are about two complete pages of off-topic bullshit. It would be good if a moderator could delete/move them.

PS: I´m trying to give one per off-topic post but it seems I´m reaching the quota too fast and will need several days to complete the task.

[Radar]

LOL. So it's ok to troll in the C&D thread in which you were the one feeding the flame, but it's not ok to do so here because poor Gambini wants this to be a thread dedicated to having only happy talk about his episode. I have no clue how you can troll a whole forum about the status of your mod, yet be so uptight when a little quarrel about a grammar mistake comes up. Remember this smiley? You deserve it again:

[OpenMaw]

C'man guys.

Gambini, I apologize for my part in derailing the thread.


Now, how about instead of continuing this any further it stops right here. Let's switch back over to talking about this awesome episode.


Can we expect an update of any sort soon, or is that a ways off yet?

You´re an idiot. The C&D joke was on a thread dedicated to the trailer, everybody was speculating, and the joke was, well, just a joke.

Lol prove it. I didn´t troll no forum. And it´s not a "little quarrel", it´s two pages already of OT bullshit, quite like... too much...

No. Don´t remember it. Are you implying you want to be nailed? Go find somebody else for that, I´m straight.

There´s a quality third party DLC coming.

[Richard Shead]

It was a huge fucking deal and even resulted in a ban(Altered Reality)....which is basically unheard of on duke4.net. I thought it was kinda a clever(albeit a bit bizarre) way of getting us hyped up. Was it real? Was it fake? Hm, let's look at the evidence and see what's what. It made me reminisce of the times when everybody would pick the living fuck out of any quote from George Broussard.

It was a bittersweet trip, but I felt all the more happy/relieved after the mindfuck had finished playing out. gg

[Forge]

this inane banter is a two edged sword
the posts keep the topic at the top of the thread page, so it may attract attention of potential new players
the posts are not exactly of the productive sort and if the potential new person bothers to actually read them instead of going to the IP, then they'd probably think wtf? and click out as fast as their little mouse can carry them

I still detest the ban of that guy. Surely that was an over-reaction.

[Jimmy]

Whoah. Altered Reality got banned?

What in the literal fuck.

[Radar]

I'm pretty sure he signed up with a new account rather quickly after.

Gambini, you're in denial.

[Jblade]

You guys need to get over that fucking C&D joke, it's not that big of a deal. Stop trying to make everything so BIG AND DRAMATIC.

I do hope Micky C works on his map some more

What about everyone else? Out of all the mappers who have or are working on this mod, I'm by far the least experienced and the "worst".

I think you're getting there very quickly, based on your AMC TC stuff. I do have a few suggestions for improvements, if you're interested (but let's not clutter up this thread, just make a post at the AMC TC forums and we'll talk there) Your grasp on TROR is probably one of the greatest of the community, and an advantage to not being as experienced as the other guys (because since we've all mapped for Duke so long we're still building with a relatively 2D map in mind with TROR added as an afterthough compared to a more newer mapper)

[DavoX]

Micky C, don't beat yourself up, your map is awesome

The first post matters.

Devil Master got banned. Less than a month after joining.

[Jimmy]

Altered Reality and Devil Master were the same guy? I'm only surprised because AR has just been in the community for as long as I can remember (counting the 3DR days at least.)

Maybe my maps aren't so bad, but they're not as awesome as somebody's

[TerminX]

Yeah, it wasn't Altered Reality, it was that Devil Master clown that got banned back on 3DR years ago.

[Richard Shead]

No, Devil Master and Altered Reality are the same guy. When Altered Reality started showing his Prey mod called, well, "Altered Reality" I noticed that it bore an extreme resemblance in both premise and visual aesthetics to one of Devil Master's older projects, "The Fourth Coming". I asked AR point-blankly if he was indeed Devil Master(who hadn't been around in quite some time) and then and there he admitted to it. The posts where I inquire and he answers are probably still around here somewhere. He's actually much cooler of a guy than most people give him credit for. In fact, one of my favorite users from back on the 3DR forums' 1999ish-2003ish era.

Edit:

Here we go!

My inquiry.


His reply.

[Radar]

OMG. I'd remember that Chuck Norris avatar from anywhere! So it was that guy.

[Kathy]

Avatar recognition was always better than the nickname. Of course if you change both then...

[Radar]

I've never changed my avatar. It was always the friendly yellow guy. And it's for that sole purpose.

[Mr. Tibbs]

Another PCG mention. "Always bet on modders. 3D Realms, not so much."

[djdori11]

So is an update coming or not? :S

[Lunick]

"and find the DNF.grp file"

[Micky C]

That text sounds recycled from something. The picture looks awesome though, and makes the level look much bigger than it is.

I'm still chipping away at my 2 maps. The first one is "finished" but requires a lot of polish, definitely fun and gameplay complete though. 2nd one about half finished (minus the polish for that as well).
For better or worse most of my motivation for finishing the map is so I can move on and finish my other projects Although I am aware that people are eager to play an update, so I'm trying to put myself in everyone's shoes which motivates me to map faster as well.

[DavoX]

Yes! Map faster, faster!
