But no one will know it's amazing. Because the subforums -this thread- exist to advertise servers. And this thread is severely lacking in anything positive/special concerning Armageddon. Which is all I'm basing my opinion on (ie, I'm basing it on what you've shown us).

Well makes things easier when you just say it straight like that, because I've directly said a few times now, this isn't it. I'm not saying it will always be this way on this thread either. I'm not saying you will HAVE to log on, I'm just saying right now, this isn't it, as I don't want to post too much on this thread about Armageddon until we get a few more key things done. I do now understand what you're saying right now isn't rude. But just to say, you did say the server had no content. Doesn't matter now.

All this started because of a comment by Rufus, then me stating directly that he doesn't know, which is a legitimate thing to say, since he really doesn't. Especially compared to all the other people replying, who have been on the server. That was my only point. Sorry it didn't get across (not saying that rude, saying it may have been might fault it didn't for you).

i do understand what your judging but in recent posts its very clear to judge what was scripted. Not a screenshot of half a full level thats hardly half complete.

its definatly not showing off what we currently have. Its show exactly what cyril scripted.

it would be like judging a half cooked meal.

That was funny how Rufus said one thing then these extra 4 pages happen.

lol giant waist of time is what is was

I like how you turned constructive criticism from Rufus in to insults towards his avatar laughirl.

I like it so far, I'd like to see more. Keep it up!

Decus_Arillias · #**366** 09-14-2010, 10:37 PM

criticism on something that isnt done dosent help at all. Criticism on the finished project is what counts.

Definatly not contructive, The contruction isnt even done.

In other words "the server looks a mess"

kinda like saying that to people right in the middle of building a house,

Wow whys it look like a mess?

Wouldn you rather make improvements on the un-finished product or have to work on it when it's been deemed as already finished?

Decus_Arillias · #**368** 09-14-2010, 10:45 PM

the level was never deemed as finished. around 6 out of 7 liked it so why would i move things around and start over?

im sure it will look fine once i finish it.

I'll let the preview speek for itsself. Looking forward to the feed back good or bad.

lol making improvements would be finishing a unfished product ultimently

Making improvements would be enhancing the game play for the better, you'll never progress if you define making improvements as final.

I'm intrigued with everything what I've seen and heard; Maximus has stated that you care about the detail in every little thing which has interested myself with the development of Armageddon. I'd rather see the the server go up with the expectations as above - I wouldn't like to log on when you've finished to see that the majority of work has been rushed and you see content which isn't as good quality as other parts on the overworld. Criticism needs to be taken constructively from players as you're developing the world for the players to enjoy.

We are and have been. I think he's saying they're not judging as a whole, and that those levels were no where near done, which hes saying, of coarse they may look bad now, they aren't done. At least thats what I get out of it.

Trolls will be trolls... Toss them some cheese and kick them back under their bridge.

Ignore comments like Rufus's. Constructive criticism isn't:

Rufus: I wouldn't go that far

Don't be ignorant. You can't claim you're trying to be constructive.

This kind of content is like something you would have expected to see in 2002, and anyone who has an eye for standards most likely knows this. What you just described is pretty much already implemented elsewhere, and if all you're differentiating in is graphics and style, it is something that you should probably start working on as soon as possible.

This has nothing to do with me having had a server in the past (don't know where you got that from, seems random) it has to do with me telling you my opinion. The server you have been posting screenshots of looks like a total mess.

:o!

He can tell if it's a total mess from 3-5 screenshots? Even then, they were of the same level/area multiple times. He can claim all he wants that he was just being "blunt", if he was just being blunt he wouldn't have had to write a novel to get his point across.

If they keep trying to disprove him he does.

Criticism on a finished product is wasted effort, because it is finished... therefor no more changes will be made. Otherwise it is something that is not done, so criticism is best received then.
