: MAPS
: I'm impressed by the good work you guys did, the maps
: have the good look and feel of the original Marathon.
: Only two things: the overall lightning is good, but
: too bright. Reduce it to 75% and it will be much
: better. The second thing is a major problem in single
: player mode: JUMPING. You should disable jumping, I
: can jump to places which were only possible to reach
: with a rocket jump in the original game. This spoils
: the fun and makes it too easy.
Jumping WILL be disabled in SP most likely. The SP game will be far more strict to the original than MP..this has always been the plan. the level lighting some people say it's too bright some people say it's too dark..I suggest you use the UT brightness control...
: WEAPONS
: Again, impressive and I love them :) The only thing I can
: say is that the projectile speed of the rocket
: launcher is too fast. This makes the weapon too
: powerful.
We have tweaked this several times and we feel this is fairly close and balanced. Depending on feedback this may yet again be fixed, but at this point we will wait and see...it might just be a matter of people getting a little used to the gameplay.
: HUD, TERMINALS
: Terminals and the HUD draw wrong in low resolution
: screensizes. Why not add a simple HUD and let the
: player choose. The HUD is what I don't like in this
: mod. There is much room for improvement.
Are you sure you are using the correct HUD? the correct HUD was designed to work at 640x480 even..if you need a resolution smaller than that..well tough beans..but you should be able to at least run 640x480 and this should work fine with the terminal.
The proper HUD is the one featured on the majority of screenshots on this website...the one you can use transparency/color adjustment with.
Thanks for playing/testing!
