Title: Good God...
Post by: The SLOTH! on March 28, 2003, 06:17:10 pm
What have I done...
I've created a monster mission!!!

Yes, I've been back at it... again...

This time, I've been slowly 'perfecting' a mission simply called:  Intrepid Escape.

Basically, you have to escort the BWS Intrepid to the Sirius jump point.

This task isn't as easy as one might think, however.
In place there are already 2 Kilrathi cap ships.  One is in tight persuit, a corvette, the other, is a Kilrathi Heavy Destroyer in place right beside the jump point.

I've placed a few 'surprises' in the mission just to make people love me oh so much more... :mad2:

This mission is, quite simply... Hard as nails.  It took me about 15 tries to win... without cheating... (turned on invincibility through FRED to see if the mission worked like it was supposed to without the player dying... naturally)

So, if anyone (on the team) has the testicular fortitude to attempt to beat this oh-so-player-loving mission, please, put your name down and I'll send it to you.  :drevil:

I'll get back to my fanatical mission creating...
Later,
The Sloth :thepimp:

Sounds great, i love the fact that there's already enough ships done to make full fledged missions.

There are. :)

Only problem is- it's still a beta.  We have a pretty good number of ships- and we have a few missions, but nothin' compared to when the newer release for the team'll come out.

Ohhh... Can't wait to get my hands on even more stuff... :mad2:

Yes we make progress and we have quite a number of ships...still not many people know about that. Hope the Demo can be realeased soon, so that we could get some more attention (maybe some new members) and all the fans get something to play.

Hey what do you expect from a something written in just 5 min?
Beside that, when I wrote it we had quite a limited number of models that could be used.
If you like to change the one or the other thing please do it, but it just was something simple to get the people a first impression and what kind of mission would you create with just 3-5 models mh?

Ahhh, alright.

So all of the voice overs and such were just for the demo?
That's relieving to my ears.


Right, I can draw something up- I'd say we just put a bundle of missions together and let'em at it for a while.  I'll make a couple more and then we can release'em.

Yes that was all for the Demo not for the campain we are planing to do and I still think that we can release them, because of the voice things that where done allready. A mission is quite more intresting with a good voice acting.
Beside that what missions have you played yet? I know Tolwyn has tried something and I have made a technical demo to see if Cap ship shield work the way we want them.
But if I remeber correctly you have also played Zor's first mission of the demo, right?
Well that is a quite simple mission with nothing special. Its just there to give the player the chance to get firm with the fighter and how graph looks like....so just something to look around. Later there should be some more intresting missions with more action.

I've made the interesting combat missions.  The ones that show off the gameplay- but I must say...

If we're to release a demo with good voice acting as you say it- then we really need to do some more voice acting.

I'm sorry, but the acting I heard was.... Rough.  Release the original demo with altered voice acting, then release my missions as a sort of filler for people until we get the release made.  I can release more missions as time goes by to keep fans happy.

Also, lets get voice acting for my missions... :mad2:
