@Delo

this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.tw/rules

wtf

Cøke 01/07/2021 5:51 PM

Delo is back

Cøke 01/07/2021 5:56 PM

no need more then 1 to tele in solo parts

Cøke 01/07/2021 5:56 PM

and u can set it on the ground

Cøke 01/07/2021 5:58 PM

no need hd for tile design

Delo 01/07/2021 5:58 PM

Gonna fix the stuff when you are ready with the review 🙂 Thanks in advance!

Delo 01/07/2021 6:02 PM

I also changed some things according to the post of Jao in the Forum: (https://forum.ddnet.tw/viewtopic.php?f=92&t=5995&start=20)

  • Made the parts easier and less faily
  • Deleted unnecessary entity off signs
  • Changed the solo parts in between a bit (you can still die though)

Parts are still nothing special I think. I made the map mainly because of the graphics and small "story"

Kenzoo 01/07/2021 6:06 PM

Just fly 4 when

Delo 01/07/2021 6:10 PM

I think im too rusty for those new maps. As i saw there are new and better mappers out there 🙂

Cøke 01/07/2021 6:21 PM

how old is this map?

Delo 01/07/2021 6:22 PM

It's 2 years old, made it in 2018 lul

Cøke 01/07/2021 6:23 PM

sorry but design top, gameplay flop

Delo 01/07/2021 6:23 PM

Thats why I wrote that the parts are nothing special

! Hood|Astral|Crying🌙ᴰᵐ ᶠᵒʳ ᴬᵈˢ 01/08/2021 4:57 PM

release

Cøke 01/08/2021 4:59 PM
@! Hood|Astral|Crying🌙ᴰᵐ ᶠᵒʳ ᴬᵈˢ

give feedback on the map or stay away from testing, these unnecessary comments are useless

louis 01/08/2021 6:54 PM

cool design, gameplay is lacking tho so not releasable unless you make the gameplay more creative

Silex 01/08/2021 10:31 PM

Seems like parts didn’t changed lul

Delo 01/09/2021 1:41 AM

Like I wrote above: I made changes according to the testing of hi_leute_gll and jao back in 2018 and posted here just for completion of the process. I had a small chat with coke and realised that most of the players doesn't even play with entities off. Therefore this maps doesn't make much sense as most of the map depends on graphics and story and not on insane new gameplay mechanics (like you already stated - coke and louis). I'm fine with every choice coke makes and can already see that it leads to a rejection as other maps with bad gameplay got declined as well. As I'm not really into Teeworlds anymore this will be my last map and you won't see any more submissions of mine in the future. I wish you all the best!

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/10/2021 12:57 PM

I really like the map. Its the good old Delo Style with simple parts, mostly unhook and freeze but moderate difficulty. His maps were never like super creative. Lots of players liked for example the Lost Story maps very much anyway. So i dont see the reason to decline it due "lack of fresh parts" I really hope its been released and im pretty sure people will have a lot fun in it. And also newer people will love the design i think. Only one thing for me, please change something to the noobfilter, its annoyingly long and especially on the last thing people will fail again and again. So make it shorter at all or make the last jump before end easier

Cøke 01/10/2021 12:58 PM

i think we cant rls this, when we rls this map .. some more nobos come out with trashy maps and want a rls

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/10/2021 1:02 PM

Its not a trashmap lmao. It has a flow and is actually good, just a special mapkind. Not to compare with really trashy maps

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:04 PM

u dont get me

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:04 PM

i like the design

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:04 PM

but the parts way too simple

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:04 PM

and i dont call it trashmap

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:05 PM

but delo know what i mean, already talked to him

Cøke 01/10/2021 1:05 PM

thats why we declined purplepanic5 , dont rly fit to the todays standards

Silex 01/10/2021 2:01 PM
@ᶰ°Konͧsti

if the mapper wouldn't be Delo you wouldn't say it's a good map

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/10/2021 2:01 PM

no they arent way too simple. Purple Panic is indeed a trashmap. It was always and pp5 was also trash because it has no single good thing in it except boring dragparts.

This map here is totally different. If u call the parts way too simple, why is Stronghold released and why do people play it every day, so its one of the most finished brutal maps? Floating Islands is just easier but why shouldnt we apply that simple map kind for the newer base of Players? It has a reason, that a lot of players like simple maps where u dont need brain for every part and just play without thinking. This isnt just randomly mapped. If u go for releasing only "Creative" maps u gonna have lots of shitty 2p force maps with 30 finishes in 1 year

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/10/2021 2:02 PM

not true because i dont know Delo really, just some map from him

sen pa'𖤐 01/10/2021 2:06 PM

I agree you want "creative" maps but they are too creative and nobody plays them

Cøke 01/11/2021 5:33 PM

we are not kog, you don't need 500x the same map like stronghold, of course you can map a hh map but it should always be a little different from each other. many of the last attempts to map a hh map were rejected because simply too much was copied or too similar..the same goes for other types of maps, there should already be some creativity, if everyone just mapps such uncreative simple parts together you also do not develop further, there are enough novice maps where you can learn, this does not need to be continued on moderate

Cøke 01/11/2021 5:35 PM

i like delo and his old maps, but if you allow something like this, you should allow other maps like this in the future, and this would be stupid

Marcell_HUN 01/11/2021 5:56 PM

creative isn’t equal to brainfuck maps

Marcell_HUN 01/11/2021 5:56 PM

Just original parts

コズミック猫 01/11/2021 5:58 PM

creative = original parts

Cøke 01/11/2021 6:01 PM
@Marcell_HUN

when did I say that

Marcell_HUN 01/11/2021 6:02 PM

You didn’t

Marcell_HUN 01/11/2021 6:02 PM

I’m agreeing with you

@Cøke
ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/12/2021 3:43 AM

This map is nothing similiar to any other shitty simple map on DDNet and its not even slightly true that u would have to accept any shit map in the future because you release a good map like that, you make no sense

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/12/2021 3:45 AM

This map will be a very popular moderate map as long as he changes something to the noobfilter. Why would ur very bad taste of maps be more important than the major Community one?

Cøke 01/12/2021 11:55 AM

I don't think so

Cøke 01/12/2021 11:56 AM

It's running around with simple drag parts

Cøke 01/12/2021 11:56 AM

Every mapping beginner is able to map this kind of parts.

Cøke 01/12/2021 11:57 AM

I have seen this kind of parts in many 'first' maps already

Cøke 01/12/2021 11:58 AM

All of these got a decline

Cøke 01/12/2021 12:00 PM

Maybe I would release it sooner if I included personal opinion, as I have known and appreciated delo for a long time, but personal opinion has little place here.

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/12/2021 7:24 PM

First mappers map unplayable trash, this map Isnt

louis 01/12/2021 8:07 PM

no, a lot of these parts are rly tight and a little basic, i wouldnt mind releasing if the parts were revamped so they were more open, more t0 friendly, and a little less basic. not sure if the mapper wants to put in that effort. i like the design tho

Ama 01/12/2021 9:45 PM

I looked at the map and it doesnt look suited for 64p

Ama 01/12/2021 9:46 PM

A rework is nearly impossible in my opinion

ᶰ°Konͧsti 01/14/2021 6:08 AM

No map needs to be suitable for 64 players

Ravie 01/14/2021 11:46 AM

I like the idea but imo a bit too faily and basic, in an adventure map u should rather have a chill experience and I'm sure it's possible to make slightly more interesting parts too

Cøke 01/18/2021 8:44 PM

$waiting

PopCorn181 01/30/2021 7:32 PM

great noobfilter

PopCorn181 01/30/2021 7:38 PM
