The Vermain Review: Exodus.

freddyfox · #1 07-13-2002, 09:03 AM

Levels - 4

Mostly every single level is covered in long grass, flower, stone, and mushroom tiles. And not the nice, dispersed, handmade stuff. There are big clumps of grass and mushrooms everywhere, and then just green grass inbetween that looks like it was made as a big clump and then right clicked into every level. Some of the levels hadn't even been tiled. There were several tile errors. There are 341 levels, but most of them are just "new#.nw" levels or test levels. Some of the levels were obscenely plain, most notably one that was lined with straight mine times and a desk with some guy standing there.

Graphics - 5

There's a tileset with a few altered tiles, and a couple vines and what I think are mudholes, but that's about it. Nothing really special or original.

NPC's - 5

There were few actual NPC's here, but most of them were just plain NPC's, such as an NPC that catches bushes and throws them into nothingness, then displays the number of bushes you brought him. There's also a "Sniper Rifle" which brings me to the question of what time period this is. The system is nice, but again, nothing special.

Quests - 0

I found several quest spots that had "This quest is being worked on playerworld team, please check back later" which leads me to believe this was attempting to get up as a private server.

Final Score: 4/10

Exodus's Status: Fail.

I looked at some of the quest levels. Zerg baddy rush quests with some block puzzles with some badly tiled mine levels honestly don't look good.

warp2ukew · #5 07-13-2002, 09:12 AM

lol i knew it would fail

WHIPENIE4 · #6 07-13-2002, 09:13 AM

um, better luck next time?

TriNe_351 · #7 07-13-2002, 09:13 AM

umm im sorry to tell you but only 1 of 5 quest has a room with baddies in it and thats 1 room You must not have looked hard enough and umm i just counted there are only 13 new.nw levels and they were put there by mistake

TriNe_351 · #9 07-13-2002, 09:16 AM

lol my server Really Deserves a Better score then that i mean comeon Crono gave it a better review then that....

It might have looked bad if u used my Tileset ... cuz I was just making that for the hell of it not to be used because it messes up the tiles if u use it with those levels

The earth quest level was piled with baddies. I did the firequest one and it had little baddies but a few non-spectacular quests. And the wind quest had two baddy rooms.

And, really, CLIENTSIDE baddies? Those lag like crap online and really reduce the experience.

Torankusu · #12 07-13-2002, 09:27 AM

From what I remember from the quests, the wind one did have a baddie room, and it popped them up three times before it left.

The firequest is really annoying.

Python523 · #13 07-13-2002, 10:08 AM

don't blame vermain for the bad review, you can only blame yourself

Spectre1337 · #14 07-13-2002, 10:27 AM

You can do it, you just need some good staff members. I could help you a bit if you like.. Just forum pm me. I can do levels, mods, graphics, and programming (not scripting)

Xbob42 · #15 07-13-2002, 10:44 AM

hmm.......
I'm gonna see what I can do to help. I haven't gotten a chance to start reviewing the levels for Exodus and help fixing up whatever. Chronic I'm gonna be on aim for a little bit. If you can, send me the most updated zip file for the world.

Well you can't blame Vermain for that, he reviewed what he was given.

Obviously not.
He has the levels and Toran confirmed it.

Then why did you put an NPC to set that tileset and send Vermain the tileset?

That's why they have more than 1 person review them now. To get a range of opinions among other things.

Aknts · #18 07-13-2002, 08:22 PM

To guy *****ing about his server:

STOP *****ING AND FIX IT. ALL YOU DO IS MAKE EXCUSES FOR EVERYTHING. I WOULDN'T PASS YOUR SERVER IF IT WAS THE BEST PLAYERWORLD EVER CREATED, BECAUSE EVEN THE BEST PLAYERWORLD IS BAD IF IT HAS A JACKASS FOR AN OWNER.

zrpgp2p · #21 07-13-2002, 11:41 PM

Wow, you quit in one try because you were made fun of? That's pretty stupid...Well then leave because Graal doesn't have room for quitters.

I hope I'm not the only one that sees the humour in that.

"Graal doesn't have room for quitters."

It gets MORE room when people quit. :P

TriNe_351 · #23 07-13-2002, 11:59 PM

Word of advice:

Your playerworld wouldn't fail if you didn't make a half-assed attempt at it. If you look over it yourself and it's nothing but badly tiled levels and baddy quests, I would think twice about sending it in.

And I can understand you were angry, but it's better to look over at your levels and realize that not everything is going to be perfect and will go over great the first time then telling me how much I suck.

You should just shut up before people start hating you. Every time you post I dislike you even more. I'm SO glad you have no playerworld skills because if you did then we might have a playerworld owner that says "F***" every time they speak.

Falcor · #35 07-14-2002, 06:44 AM

I'm glad I stayed in school.
