Description PRESS "1" BEFORE STARTING OR IT WILL NOT WORK
"As N looks down upon the arena, the place has been set for him and the ride is set to begin. N readies himself for The Ride and suddenly all of his thoughts come out at once, 'Sweet' says N to the adoring fans about to watch his execution. N manages to evade the enemies for a long time, and he even makes it to the exit, but N was no match for the lazer drone's suckerpunch dealed on the way out."
---
The suckerpunch thing just means that N gets killed in the doorway after completion =). Anyway i like this one and it is my response to Killerman's claims of having seen to many cramped DDA's. Lemme c what yall think about this one.

oh and templex

if you dont like DDA's why have you like commented on half of mine?

well thats your...

opinion- i actually do find making them fun! besides... it takes some thought away from reality =)

...

well templex...thats just your matter of opinion. Don't expect that everyone will not like making ddas.

...

I've made DDAs too, and frankly I find them rather boring to make/playtest/publish to numa. They're getting old. Would you rather play a game or watch a movie? They're also too much trouble. Spending thirty hours on a single map is not my idea of fun. I'm growing to like DDAs less and less, and the most I give nowadays is a four.

ok well:

fusion it was top rated like 3 times lol
Killer this one lacked thought, i just started assembling a DDA mechannically

...

i half agree with krush and templex...but on the other hand, it does create an awesome effect. Ive tried this king of DDA before and believe me, its pretty hard to make. On the other hand...it lags badly and its pretty short. The chaingun drones don't add much off effect as they are actually easy to evade. I have mix feelings so i don't think ill vote...

Aw...

It WAS top rated.

i apolodgize...

im having map maker's block so i didnt know what to come up with... so i guess i came up with this

"BEST DDA ON NUMA"?

I'm sorry, but I agree with Templex on this one.
It was just a generic DDA with lots of enemies.
Try something creative, I urge you!
It was exciting, yes.
But nothing original or overly captivating.

well thanks guys...

this map brought me back up to my old spot as number 3 =)

Um.

I don't think that this DDA deserves a 4.5. Stuffing 100 enemies into one map to make almost-guaranteed close calls don't cut it, especially with the amount of launchpads you have here. Be a little more creative/crafty than that, I know you can, judging from your other works. I'm giving this a 3.5, sorry.

You should also give a shot making action/puzzle maps as well, as it takes creativity to make decent DDAs, and you need creativity to make action/puzzle maps as well. Start with the tileset.
Here's a guide I cooked up during a long boring day: http://n.wikicities.com/wiki/Mapmaking

IF

this still has a five by the time 100 people rate it, im going to give it a 4. I dont like ddas in the top rated. This is awesome, though. Great work

My eyes hurt!

Holy...that was one Über DDA! So much action and so many close calls definitely one of the best DDAs ever!

OMG...

YOUR THE BEST DDA IN NUMA...AWSOME!!

Well...

i did'nt have to press 1. 5/5

hey

Wow

Incredible. 5

Wow

Incredible. 5

Nice

Yep, now that i typed 1 it worked. It was very well done
of the time without the 1 key, and it doesnt do everything right without the 1 key. it skips some parts so you should go hit it...

It does work...

Who says it doesn't work, because it does and you don't need to press 1...

o ya sorry

IT DOESNT WORK UNLESS YOU PRESS "1" BEOFRE YOU START... i knew that too sorry lol

Press 1 b4 u start

or, else sum people will say that

......

It doesn't work, so it would be unfair to rate this
