Looks like a decline
Mb ryu pro tester please play the entire map and break down why it’s a decline for me
Sometimes where there are maps and you just know
This looks like an old ass ddmax map the gameplay is simple and uninteresting and has been done over and over again
If I must break down every part for you to understand that then maybe you should stop replying to my messages and try testing maps 😛
why get personal he just reminds you that you should stick to the guidelines
if it’s so obvious testers will do the work and provide the breakdown, what is your "looks like a decline" for then?
Big jana! Wasn't there a new rule that before submitting a map everything has to be in order, otherwise it's a insta decline? It should look up to standards partswise, design should be done and be clean, and parts tested.
I’m only annoyed because this guy has replied to me every time I’ve spoken in any of these channels otherwise I would not “get so personal” which I am at fault for
ever thought about whether this guy could be right? just because you test a lot (which is great to see) it doesn’t mean no one can criticise you. If you were the mapper and read "Looks like a decline" would you be thankful for that comment?
I’ve received that comment myself so I’m really unbothered
this design is shit bro
- make sure to leave enough space for parts in ur map
everything is a bit cramped
- refrain from using a bunch of speeders, lasers, etc. if its ur first time mapping
stick to the basics
- try to make ur design easier on the eyes, and label things with icons, not words
- parts should be balanced and have flow throughout the map, try to keep some central 'theme' for all ur maps
$decline
try to take a look at recently released maps to see what we're looking for on ddnet!
