AI, just recap the scenario:Alantai Firestar wrote:And you should stop complaining. IMSabell, I'm not sure exactly what it was I did to offend you in the first place, though I have a vague idea, eitherway you're intent on holding on to whatever grudge your bearing against me and I advise you not to talk about or to me here, as anything you've said as a result is counter productive and is more of a waste than anything I've said save maybe the rant about tiddlywinks I had in the PM's, and the cookie tree pictures, all of whih where in my short tirade.IMSabbel wrote:AI, i wouldnt even _begin_ counting the verbal diarrhoea you put into this forum, oh great master of ai and gamedesign...Alantai Firestar wrote:Thankyou Sabbel for the example of a perfectly useless post.
But yes metal maps arent like other maps because they're so similair in texture, you need something that'll mark your metal map out from the other metal maps or you're gonna have it pulled down in players opinions as a result.
Somebody releases a map is _no_ reason to complain about that you dont like the map. Also, besides coreprime and metalislands, what els is there in decent sized metalmaps?
As I see nobody has asked you to express your opinions about me here, and it's very offtopic. Dont fixate on any AI aspect I've given, I do not push myself as the grand leader of AI in the TA community, and I do nto claim to know everythign about game design, but neither do you. So stop making comments about me behind my back and keep your opinions to yourself unless asked, I do not wish to be pulled into a flame dwarfing sindbads map. which I did not insult, I mearly made a passing comment or two, if you are going to respond in any way, I suggest you say it directly, PM, msn, or email, otherwise be gone.
Person A shows map preview
Person B gives useless commentary ("oh not another matal map"
Person C (me) rants at Person B
Person D (you), who had absolutle nothing to do with it, rants at person C for ranting about the useless commentary of persion B.
So its seems quite obvious that YOU have some kind of grudge. Because _I_ think baseless bashing of a new map release isnt productive, thus _my_ rant was justified. Yours was just postcount boosting.

Too late to try it out much myself... but this is what I got... as it turns out, OTA maps slopes for all units the same or something... XTA the kbots can take all slopes, everyone else has to take the ramp... the OTA version nothing can take the slopes, all can take ramps... XTA on OTA version, units can walk anywhere... OTA on XTA version, units can't even take ramps...

Both maps under 150K due to the magic of simple repeating textures and compression

/me slightly annoyed by another 13 year old you tries to make a "i know stuff" impression on the internet.
In portuguese we have a saying that is, if you have a roof of glass, you shouldn't go around throwing stones. (as much as Alantai may be anoying at times)
