RAMP 2024 - Playthroughs 58

[@NeilForshaw]

"You've got plenty of room to circle strWOOOOAAAAH this is not circle strafe compatible!" - I foresaw that 😁and took counter measures 😆 Thanks for playing my map David. Yes it's particular enemies you need to kill to proceed. I wasn't sure how to make that obvious though (it's already a bit "infodumpy" as it is). 🙃 This was my first ever serious go at ZScript (if it wasn't for your tutorial series I wouldn't have been able to complete this map so a massive thanks for that). The reason I decided to go with a load out instead of pickups is because I thought "first time Zscripting... better keep it simple"... little did I know that to make a weapon you end up 98% of the way to making it pickupable 🙃. The 3 weapon goes through enemies... like a projectile rail gun.

Very interesting concept and design. Slaughter type map aren't my thing, but it was super fun to watch, and I'm sure it could lead to something great if streamlined a bit.

"Are you... sword fighting?? In the office?" "Compiling!" "Ah! Carry on then!"

[@Snowythereindeer2167]

Very cool community project

[@Benehrethgir]

I've gotten used to watching these so when they stop.I'm gonna be bummed out for a while

[@indrora]

Watch the ones from last year, and the people doing various commentary plays too!

[@TetrisKid48]

Thank you for playing my map! And i appreciate the criticism, i'm pretty new to mapping. Can't wait for next year :)

[@SiD3WiNDR]

No. Nooo... I can't wait so many months for more of these. Please... someone add a new map to RAMP 2024?? I need the soothing commentary voice combined with DEMON SLAYING.

Thank you for making these videos. 👍 🙂

I remember playing that first map. There was a lot more to it as I recall!

[@lancebaylis3169]

Not only does The Beano still exist, it still (I think?) publishes new material. It's the current home of a regular Bananaman comic strip, for example.

I think a "Coco sitting in front of the screen run" is the next big thing in online Doom challenges. How fast can you complete a level with a cat between you and the screen? I look forward to this category on the DSDA :)

[@kegluneq6306]

The Beano still exists, I think? (UK Dennis could absolutely take USA Dennis in a fight)

[@newcarpathia9422]

Can't see a damned thing in that one map. I mean that literally. I don't know what you're seeing. At least once, you were talking about the colors and all I could see was a pitch black screen.

[@Aleteos]

wow, such dislike for slot 3... when it's clearly the superior weapon. Sure slot 1 is fast, but it's soo much weaker.

[@andrewdwilliams]

David never did find my secret super weapon in map 39, but it went through a 180 turn during development. My first version of it was a slow firing, high power weapon - you had to aim carefully, but it could take out even the boss in a few shots. But when I was playtesting, I found it wasn't fun to use; the high power came with a high cost, and most of the shots would miss because enemies keep moving. So I reversed it all - I made it a lower power but rapid fire weapon with a decent spread, and it immediately became the best weapon in the map! I think something similar is going on here. A high power but low firing weapon just isn't FUN. Being able to rapidly spray bullet-equivalents at the enemy is a lot more satisfying.
