An impressive piece of text there. I eventually got bored and skipped to the end half-way through but intersting it was though. He could have spent the time it took to write this on teaching his son not to write things like this...

Lol, i know, I tried so hard to fix it, but without completely pulling the map apart and splitting it in two there was no way (and no time left) to get it done right.

Very well done indeed, hotdog! Puts my little entry to shame! the only part I would critique is the end lava area with the chest. All very well done, except you can kinda get permanently stuck if you end up in the wrong are with the chest. I completed everything in that area, turned on the water, got the chest, and when I touched the lava, I was transported to the middle of the map, where I couldn't go anywhere. A simple noclip bypassed that part to finish the level, and other than that, I really liked the puzzles, and finding mario coins... I think I found all but 2 or three. You actually did some stuff I didn't know you could do. the disabling of the rope while you had the chest was a nice touch. Great puzzles and looked really good. Congratulations on this wonderful map!!

This entry was pretty cool. The ambience gave it a neat feeling and the pyramids were really cool looking. The tunnel underground was neat but tackily put together and could be perfected with simple vertex manipulation. I couldn't really tell what the treasure chest was because it looked more just like a box. When I finally got to the part of the exploding barrels it was a really cool sequence and things began to make sence. Overall it was a really cool puzzle but some brush work and better directions would make it more enjoyable.

he forgot about the part where a "black person" repeatedly shoots a little white girl. He's clearly a terrorist. Either that or he's a time-traveler and is getting his own back for the appauling "christmas" comment.
? ? ? ?
Edit:
you can't give me a warning for that. Satire protects me! SATIRE PROTECTS ME!

it's when you get sucked in by stuff like this and actually take it seriously. it's one of the fundamentals of trolling. NOTE: i should probably add that trolling is frowned upon in a general sense because it starts internet flaming and the like.

HAHA! I love this!
"Is Valve implying that women lack the upper body strength to hold anything but a pistol?"
F' U dualies are awesome.
"Even if a man is faced with his death and the death of his comrades, is it really so much to ask that he refrain from using swear words"
Well then hang me and send me to hell, because I said that word when i stubbed my toe on the stairs this morning.
"Francis could have just as easily said "Happy holidays!"
Oh, well now I know who it was who tried to get me in trouble with the cops last year for saying Merry Christmas.
"On this subject, one quarter of the party is composed of African Americans. However, African Americans constitute less than 15% of the population of the United States."
That is so right, we should've cut Louis in quarters, and then threw a lifeless chunk of him into the game.
I say again, i absolutely love this, mark my words, I never pass up an opportunity to make fun of someone! >:)

I only had to read half of this trolling text . I agree with him at some points , but mostly disagree. First of all , he's talking from the point of view of a parent for his child . If it was to be after him , that game would be so boring ... And I don't think valve is developing games for 10 years old children ...

"One of the first things I noted about the trailer was that it featured four survivors. Of these, only one of them was female, meaning that the male survivors outnumber the female survivors three to one."
another example, i never hosted my map on this site! It already has 180+ downloads. I recommend you google your maps from time to time, you might get a surprise!

Well it has a faint black vignetting around the edges, what if I just deepen that up?
The problem with blacking out the edges is that, it being done entirely in Hammer, it's going to look off at certain resolutions, and entirely different at 4:3, 16:9 and 16:10 proportions. It's usually something handled with a bit of code, I'm assuming.
The actual crosshairs aren't actually just overlayed on the screen, so they won't suffer from odd proportions.

"Looking hawt. LOL the pun. Wait didn't someone else write that in a journal :P"
Thanks, I think Ant said it in my Volcano vid, iirc.
"if they were 100% accurate we would never get past them :s"
Probably should've said 'sniper rifles'. The gun itself always seems to hit exactly where the beam is aiming. It's the sniper AI that occasionally misses.
"The gun looks awesome. I love the overlay, it all really makes me feel like a combine sniper. >:)"
I shall work on a shooting range version of this so everybody can enjoy sniping innocent rebels. ;D
"Oh, and I think I do agree with Daub about the scope, make it a bit more black around it."
Hmm, well enough people have mentioned that to me, so I'll give it a try and see if I like it.
LOL! Anything for a buck, huh?
*frowns in bitter disapointment...
And wow, its looks great, but really bad performance. R-speed r over 4500 at the start location. Bad.
Wait, and I thought this is not enough :/ ...on the previous competitions you had only 3-4 compos? lol
did it in 5 mins tho with sv_gravity :>
And the trailer's not too bad either.
EDIT: Replies in steampowered thread = EPIC LULZ.
And the cinematic was awesome!
Internet censorship is running rampant now obviously, whoever censored that post undermines democracy, what are you? A fascist? Nazi scum!
Either that or he's a time-traveler and is getting his own back for the appauling "christmas" comment.

I predict that your going to get at least, 2nd place, although I thoroughly expect you to get 1st place. :>
