Map Data

Description N has been feeling a little cocky lately. Watch him show off for his fans as he taunts missles, zap drones, and gauss turrets. He even has time to pose for a quick photo ;)

This map must be played in Debug mode. User-Levels will not work due to cheating death effects.

pretty good

i liked it, but the only bad thing was that the gold delay was kind of used as a close call maker. you had the ninja in the same spot until the enemy was about to get him and then the object activated, and the level continued. 4/5

I won't even talk about cheating death or gold delay or anything.
This is just one of the best DDA that will ever be done, on my opinion.

Wow...

I shouldn't thrown away my cheat-death-tastic map...
I mean, I stopped working on it since I was on a NUMA lull, but seeing all these people whine about death cheating maps makes me want to start up another...

I think I had like... 20 death cheats in the first minute. Ah well...

okay, here we go...

definetley not a 5. but 0 and 0.5? that was ridiculous. there was no accuracy with the gold delay, and cheating death maybe cool but the way do it wasn't. cause you just held N in place till he got hit. also quite a few launch pads, and drones, cheap movement and close calls. however, i LOVED the mine room, and the fact you made him win before it was over was cool. so a round 3.5/5 from me

pissed

i agree with sour7lemon
the cheating death thing just pisses me off
especially right at the beginning
im giving you a zero hoping that you make this better

this

was awesome 5/5
what an asshole... 0.5?
doesn't work, maybe you should try playing it in debug mode.

DDA?

Not entirely sure if this is actually a real DDA... you die twice.

NOPE

Dis deserves to be in da top ten. Look at nevermore the ring of fire, dat uses wayyyyy too much gold delay and that was in the top ten for a long time. Or trauma, rocket ed, its my nightmare, they ALL use cheating death effect.
Before you claim that i cant make a map without "cheating" as you put it, try looking at my other DDAs which dont cheat death.

Clearly I can make one without it, however I thought it added a nice effect (sparks and blood splatters). So it seems to me that rating a map a 0.5 just for 2 cheating death effects that you didnt like was kind of petty.

However, I know that not everyone will like my maps, so I dont take that personally. Im just saying, rating it (basicly a 0) seems pretty harsh considering the amount the effect was used.

TERRIBLE.

I rated this 0.5, just for the map. It really aggrivates me when people cheat death.. its totally unnecessary and makes your maps look much worse. It tells me that you cant make a good map without cheating.

Sorry. Try making a map without cheating death.

P.S., this isnt a personal attack whatsoever, I just dont like death cheaters.
Infinately better than my maps!
Why is this not #1 on the list of all maps?

I'm blaming it on the gold-stacking nazis. :P

nevermind

forgot that i cant edit it once its rated....

....

Well it says that i made it using version 1.4b, and at that time there wasnt a user-levels option. Not my fault that people cant figure that out. But just to save confusion im updating the description...

argh...

tell people in the description if any time in any map cheats death, so they don't put it in userlevels. Its just annoying...well, it is to me.

WHAT!!

Whenever i get to the third room, I should die, but i don't! Everything freezes!

WOW

That was much better than any other DDA I have ever played. A definete 5/5 from me. :)

WHAT THE HELL

THAT WAS LITERALLY THE BEST DDA IVE EVER EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE (BETTER THAN THE FIVE WAY ONE) THAT WAS SICK 5.0

perfect chaos...

You're doing it in user levels then, right? Well a lot of DDAs cheat death and that doesn't work in user levels. You'll have to put it in debug mode.

whats going on?!?!

every time im supposed to die, i dont die. just the entire map freezes and i can still move but nothing effects me. whats going on?!?!?!?! this even happens with all maps!!!!!!!!!!

nvm

figured it out.

3rd room problem

i dunno whats up in the 3rd room he keeps dieing is there something i am missing?

Amazing

^nothing more to say

one of the best

one of my favorites DDA's... ever.

............

i am at a loss for words. 5/5.
This level is OMG! Although, it is a little laggy

5

Absolutely amazing.

AAAAAHHHHH

this is an incredible DDA!!! you rock! 5/5 any day of the week and/or month

Pwa ?

Z. O. M. F. G.
That was amazing !! I loved the two endings. 5/5, no question.

r u kidding?

thats a great DDA. 5

You know...

You probably shouldn't have thanked me... on reading my comment again, it sounded a bit arrogant :-P

You have point with the trajectory thingy, in places. You know, I was probably a bit harsh, and this DDA really was quite fantastic. And so many chating death effects...

^_^

actually....

The "extra" gold on the lauchpads is there for a reason. It delays the launch by just a little bit, which actually changes the trajectory he takes. Ill admit that there are a few places where it probably wasnt needed. But there are also alot where it actually effected the outcome that i wanted. Anyways, to be honest if i had to rate myself i would only give it a 4. I pretty much dont like everything past the last 2 rocket rooms. I kindof cut the end short because A) i was getting tired at the time and i just wanted to finish it, and B) it was starting to get laggy. So anyways, thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.

Am I...

the only one who isn't blown away by this?

Sure, it's long, and cool, but- the gold placement annoys me- well, all gold delay annoys me, but I won't rate this down because of THAT- what bugs me is how the the majority of the launch pads have one or two 'extra' gold pieces on them that he doesn't collect the second last time he hits the pad...

Not enough enemies, either, for enough close calls. The cheating death effect was really cool.... and it went for ages. Oh- that room with the mines- THAT was sheer brilliance...

It's nice

Mine's sorta groundbreaking... Ah, you'll see... :D

Wow

that kicks my versions ass...never more yous better be amazing

I'm making one

Just gimme a day or two.

amazing

even the room with mines was cool to watch! wow! 5/5 bravo. i think you won. if someone makes a better dda then this itll have to be very original. plus they only have about 2 days.

Good Show
