McNite's mapping skills

[abercrab]

]UBC[ deserves a signature QW's map, and I know just who can make one.

Good stuff Abe
At least the 2008 post is off the mapping discussion ;D
Come on Mc

River.........many fine memories playing that map

*push*

I want to see what Mc can do about Mapping QW...
Just too curious about it.
And I would be the victim for balancing.
So if you ever want to try Mc and need some help balancing / testing, 'ere I am.

:-D

Hey Fossi, like the UBC tags you've got on at the moment

[]UBC[FossiBear]

I just need to get used to it.

Moomoo asked me yesterday (and at least once before, as far as I can remember) and it took some time for me to think about it.

Not mapping at all, no time.

Mc how long in total did the River II Redux, and Warbell take? My best guess is 23 months for the two of them. To map for ET:QW and do a good map would take a single mapper at least 18 months (even with some help).

These days mapping takes a team of really well understanding people and a whole lot of free time. Just look at how long it takes companies with lots of talented people paid for it to produce a game with maps and figure it from there.

It's not even a question of skills anymore, you need good tools and a team of people to do a fair job of it. I think that a company that produces a game with a better system of doing custom maps for their game will do well going forward. IMO ET:QW needed that to be able to sustain itself and really become one of the best games of all time.

I have no doubt McNite could have done a great map for ET:QW but I think there is too much work for anyone to try to take that on.

Thats for sure. @could have done a great map.
Just wanted to say: If you need a lab rat, 'ere I am!

Yea well Moomoo don't get the clan say on who wears the tags
So in the future please don't play with them on unless you've applied and been accepted
Played with u on the American servers with the tags, looked good but not legit

Too bad I missed the point somwhere in the conversation.

I have had a few sentences with Mc about it already.

I hope the topic is done so far and I am sorry for acting before using my brain...
Not my usual style as you might recognize...

To be honest I feel a little embarressed about that fact...

Like the colours as well, bit of a waspie thing going on there
