i think the problem with making orignal maps is that its so hard nowadays,everything has already been done.

whiners

Numa is like our economy.

You always play that card. Get fucking new material.

People do NOT always have the right to their opinion - it's really naive of you to say that. And I'm not talking to you so go boil an egg.
Maybe tell people "If you you wanna even peek your words out of their mouths that talk about how good/bad a map is you better post a demo". That's my thought and BTW I havn't been around for a while (I joined right after the repolish of the site) and don't really know what happened back then. I visited here and there and I think almost all the maps were getting attention. My point I'm trying to come across is "What's happening on the other side of the computer?","Can you trust them?"

Bupo:

Why would you care what other people think about maps? It's your opinion that such maps are sub-par, and someone else could think that the same maps are great, and they wouldn't be doing anything wrong by thinking that.
you guys are so damn nice.


it feels.............strange now.

hey bupo

you're right, but personally i'm more optimistic and hoping that this horrible period in NUMA is just part of a cycle.

I'M

NOT DOING THIS FOR ATTENTION.
there can't be that many ways of using the limited tiles we have left. Also, you could make the same argument about music, it's all shit because nobody's doing anything new like they did in the 60's/70's. The problem being there isn't much left to do in terms of innovation, but it doesn't make the skill or quality any less than it is.

ya know,

I can just barely remember when giving out 5's was news. Now it's as easy as oral services from a prostitute. New members view rip-offs made by mappers like blackson, radium falcon, nokitt as epic, original maps - and they don't even fucking bother to look at the authors that founded modern maps.



This is the most naive era of NUMA ever.

"Wow man great 4.5->5" for sub-par, shitty maps is all I see around here. The tiles coming out of most all maps for the last 3 months have been re-works, or stale manifestations of the exact same aesthetic foundations. Whatever.
but i love your style, though i havent played N in like 3 months, i loved your maps and always played them, especially the ones with no exit, you just get the switches. keep it up man!
...or at least I think that's when the fad was popular

Meh

Different? No, not really. I've seen quite a few maps like this.

BTW,

3/5.

Typo:

*However much I want to like this map* is what I meant to say.
I just don't really like much of this map. Most of it just felt like an ordinary rocket dodger. The gameplay just wasn't spectacular enough to make this map great. The tileset actually wasn't that bad, but it just felt a bit lacking and felt unfinished (to me).
However, I really liked the part with the two zap drones. I really liked that part, though I'm not quite sure why.
I do agree with everybody else that the title sucks, but I generally don't count titles into ratings.
NR - still deciding between a 3 and a 4.

@bupo

Lol. you suck at pretending to be new.

And blackson your maps used to make me giggle so much. They were lots of fun and looked pretty. But now they just lack design, gameplay and looks.

I still have faith with you especially becaue of this map, I did like it. The drones were fun to time and the rockets were nice. 4/5

Leave him Alone!

Sorry Blackson. I have a lot of respect for you and your maps. ATOB, I think you should be softer on him.

(Seriously)
4.5/5 Keep it up, but the name...

Your fine.

It's late, I might reply tomorrow.
and you're being a jerk to people.

Calling it as I see it, man.

after I'm done.
and I submit them when I'm done.

Lately, I have been dropping my looks for gameplay. Nobody pays maps, just a peek at the thumbnail and a little comment and hit the rate button, so I don't have any ground.

I've been mapping for the "player", and I will continue to do so.
It's not like that at all, not even close.

There is no such thing as text-book in this context, just maps that have obviously been given a quality amount of thought and care.

You can call what you've been doing lately innovation, or change, but really it's been a load of uninspired and half-arsed design churned out at a rate faster than your creativity can keep up to.

You can come back at me now with as much self-righteous indignation as you want, but all you've been doing lately is burning people for calling you on your average output.

It's not cool, not in the slightest.
...faster.

There's nothing wrong with this map. I enjoyed it.

I'm not doing this for attention
if i could make maps like you, i'd be top dog around here.

Meh

A bit faster.

Beautiful tileset. Gameplay's nice and relaxing too. But who cares what I think? Who cares what anyone thinks? Just remember: you are the only person whose existence you can be sure of.

title.

find inspiration by playing some quality maps.

Auto.

If you were refering to me, it's not that they aren't seen, it's that everyone has some requirement for everything to look the same. Change is wrong, and that is wrong.

yeah

I agree with blackson, people don't play maps that look out of the text book.
There's people in numa that deserve more attention but their tilesets don't look good and therefore nobody plays them!
I'm almost crippled, I'm on a drug that limits my movements, and when I do engage, I pull muscles instantly. This is a get away for me. I haven't been able to do shit, and I'll finally get my world back September 29th. Expect me to stay.
Recently you seem to be churning out 3-4 maps daily. Just give it a break.

Everyone is

uptight and picky. It's a very boring place. For maps to be accepted, they have to follow a textbook of accepted looks.
but maybe you should take a break from mapmaking and NUMA and enjoy another sport or something. Enjoy life a bit and hopefully it will give more inspiration to your maps. Guys hold off on all the comments, give him a break.

Slow AGD

Especially compared to yours on NReality (notkitt)...

I kind of corner jumped off the bounce block once, although it really didn't help.

TOO EASY

make them flowyer and harder.

3.5/5
