Bug?

i guess this doesnt matter, why would it.. posting it just in case

it looks better

?

planned

well i fixed all

corner

ty i will check

good

maybe ready

😄

no stopper

well i will delete stoppers

i hope so 😄

assessment Rating: 3 Star Dummy (maybe 4Star not exactly sure) Map is fun to play has new creative parts & flow is ok

, already told you my points, please fix. Otherwise make the map ready!

this part is a bit tight so is really problematic to get dj and do the part normally without touching the freeze below

you can skip above

this block is to help to get the refill? if it is, doesnt help too much is annoying to go wall because is too small and is more likely to freeze yourself than a thing that help.

1.- imo this part is really bad, going into edge and edge is really variable most of the time 2.- you can go rocketfly 3.- unfreeze on totele 12

you can skip the whole part by going up

besides the part itself is not nice imo

this kill tile is makes the part really uncomfortable to play

well after playing the map, i think it doesn't have the potential to be released, most of the parts arent good, and some are boring/annoying to do

$decline

Good players alrdy tested its easy to get DJ with skill

It is planned for 2 ways one fast way for speedrun and one slow way

It’s an hard map so why u think all should get maked on ur own skill lvl wtf

U can cheat it right but it’s slower so it’s useless and it’s faily

This is the only thing u sag which makes sense I can fix this

Bro i think u should test maps on ur skill lvl if u can’t get how to do parts right

Alrdy good testers said to me it’s releasable so don’t tell shit pls

watch out how you talk boy or girl whatever, i get why you are salty, but the map isnt good, the gameplay is boring and mostly to say bad done

also ping the "good testers" so we can have a chat 😄

i was playin ur map too btw and is pretty boring tbh

I can see how I'm talking, yes, but then you should start letting your opposite talk and not just assert your opinion, also take a look at something if you misunderstood something but you didn't want to watch that. Coke tested the map too It's not the most special map, but he said it's releasable and you can always talk about improvements. You don't always have to put an X behind a map that already has so much work in it, that's not fair

We all are doing the same and also we can, if the map doesn’t have the requirements for release we give feedback in general and then decline, besides if a tester want to intervine in the decision would have to test the whole map, but it’s seems I’m the only one who gave his time to test the map

im in chat with exotix about this map for very long time. it took a lot of work and seems not fair to be declined so fast. can you go more precisely wich parts needs a rework, so its enjoyable ?

imo first half has too much "do an edge to get dj" moments, its not hard and simply takes more time than a 1 block platform

also why is there a random micro click

didnt play the full map but i think it can be fixed

$reset

After a few talks with the team, I’ll try be more specific about the changes he Have to make

this part seems very generic and boring

Arrow: the king of declining maps

endless should be off from there. doing this rocketfly with endless feels way too easy and kinda unbalanced compared to rest of map

also dont know why this should be declined. gameplay is fine, well mapped and makes fun overall

+1

pretty good map

fun to play

i dont mind it

a simple drag can sometimes be fun

No, it's jao.. Still number one

its all just subjective

Thats why i said "can"

i like cans yes

Btw did arrow decline the map by literally himself only

Looks like it

"i was a mapper like you, but i took an arrow to the knee"

no one else was testing so i guess it was fair, except for the actual decline

can you please tell me, what from this version i should fix ?

dont worry i gotchu bro

dont worry i gotchu bro

u missed my ping, but i got u bro, checking later

tbh i forgot about this map, but i already checked, im sorry

• Missing corners

wtf is this?

U should delete this type of corners from your map, cuz u failed them like 128371982 times, so either delete them or do a good job.

$waiting

is it good now ?

I'll check later

no, it's not

what u mean ?

.

At the timecp 2

What's the unlivefreeze for ? You could make that part work without using a door

That part ending seems awkward

Why place the infinite hook up there ?

Pataros (1)'s design was way clearer and easier to play with

Place them equally

Using that 1v1 (3 small rocks) tile that way looks out of place, it could at least be rotated to fit better

Remove freeze in teleport

That swing is not too great

$waiting

i added the unlivefreeze for not cheating the part wile hammering the dummy from down and the door is for not go with the dummy the up way and cheat the part down, u want me to find a way to delete the door + for cant cheat the down part without the door ? so i can find a way, i will send the fixed version later

https://i.imgur.com/8SEk18g.png

That hook seems not to be too popular amongst players

I alrdy fixed the swing to make it better I send after work but I need to know what should I do with the door in my question up

i need to make the unlivefreeze away ?

It's cheap to use a door there

https://i.imgur.com/FQvnlH9.png

here i fixed the screens

and also the unlivefreeze

+1 pretty good

fixed

Talked to mapper in-game

$waiting

after looking at the design of the map its whole diffirent thing than pataros 1 idk imo it doesnt fit name pataros 2 i would use same design or more similar if i were to make a sequel to a map

i fixed the 2 gameplay parts + removed freeze in tele + maked the swing work well + i placed the solo/endless mark as same, pls let me know when i need change some else

also found design bug fixed now

It's better now, but the design is still a problem

It's really hard to play as it is

its apain in the arse to completely change the design

It took me 5 minute to get something not so bad

is there not an way i can just change colours our what should i do now

I'm sorry, could you rephrase ? I don't get what you wrote

is there not an way i can just change colours our what should i do now

It still doesn't make sense

well so what can i do

Say it in German, I might understand it better

was kann ich jetzt noch ändern damit die map fertig ist

Sie müssen die farben andern

nur vom hintergrund ?

Alles

My German is limited, it's been a while 😄

You should be able to play without entities on

$waiting

Höflichkeitsform intensifies

I prefer the current brown design honestly. It's pretty classic but not bad, I didn't feel like anything was unclear when I played it. Parts are gonna need some work tho

wtf

I'm thinking quite the opposite

what's so bad about it? the colors are pretty good imo

The gameplay is ok but not the design

There are too many of them, you can't see anything (freeze, teleport..)

some parts felt like they hardly work when I played them

He already tried editing them

is it good now?

the design is ok for me

see no problems

XD

ups

qoreru

the corners are so bad placed and random 💀

Which corners

I replaced all the 3corner blocks in the gameplay with normal ones and only left the outside ones in the design, does it fit now?

just in the start of the map

didnt checked more

Ah this one’s I thought about the blocks

I will fix it later

is this okey?

i would change this purple color 😄 doesnt rly fit in the map

would expand this that u need speed here

wrong marking here, but doesnt rly matter

maybe move the suns all over the map in the mid? xd

agree with arrow here, this can be higher (2 tile)

ah idk if u want it like this or with freeze behind, its random do it like u want

its all over the map

i would change this to unhook

$waiting

forgot HD things

moving suns doesnt work?

something is wrong with the colors here. edit : its all over the map, u have 2 layers of freeze which make it sometimes unplayable with design

looks like tele here

looks too dark for unfreeze

maybe make it more consistent and use in the whole map the same count for cto teles where u need it

$waiting

added HD

only non-gameplay relevant design elements on HD

u can still do it without speed

its still the same

, i was thinking u will add something

it looks like u can cheat here, maybe mark it different bcs its with tele

forgot the suns?

$waiting

fixed the points u named

the brown behind the unhookable should be non-HD, looks very shitty when u turn off hd now xd

wrong file

$optimize

$edit --shrink-layers

$ready 3

finally =] I had an alpha or beta of this map on my drive for 1 year Big thx to all the testers ^^

i still want better corners

$reset

this map kinda fine!

really stupid corner bug i think

you have to go ingame and zoom in to actually see it but still lmao

thats not the only corner error in this map...

rocket fly skip

It's fine

Mapper want both ways

👍

Was already pointed

$ready 3

new map version

just corner bug

ohhhh

• rls is now

nvm then

snail can upload it later

gg

Playing the map without HD removes everything from the background

👍

rip Konsti credits

why is this still open

cuz he didnt credit my parts

Have there also 2 parts and no credits 😁

did he even map one

lmao

he asked everyone for 1 part and said "1 part doesnt need credits" to every single one of u and in the end he didnt map anything by himself

chatgpt vibes

nah i just helped a bit and never asked for that 😄

3 should be "ice cave"

lmfao xddd its true

i made at least 3 parts tho

patchwork

essentail 2 > rename it to gravitee > after year remake it and post it as essential 2

so this is why the map is all over the place and so odd to play
