The /newstuff Chronicles #296

[Tormentor667]

Still no Austerity review? :(

[Cutman]

Well that wasn't worth the wait at all. Humbug!

[Bastet Furry]

Then do it better.

We should make a DWSTBNS -> Doomworld Searches The Best Newstuffer
But i think i know who would win, if he participates, Scuba Steve ^_^

@Johnatone:
Thanks for the flowers. *g*

I played Austerity. Only Austerity for last two weeks. Very accurate map in Q3 style IMO (there are visual borders around of any element of geometry) I played without savegames and had no problems with ammo and health. I like if I can finish a level without savegames.

Sure, gimmie a while though i'm at work n stuffz.

[Belial]

A bunch of meaningless one line 'reviews'.

I say, that was well worth the wait.

[Dutch Doomer]

Reviewers should get caco awards as well, the reviews are too short not that it would stop me from downloading them.

[Alter]

I say this is worst of newstuff chronicles which stinks with one-line reviews congratulations on writing crappy reviews!

[Zalewa]

Who the hell are you Bastet Furry and who let you do the reviews? Jesus.
Go away and never come back!

[Cutman]

Btw when you go to review the wads, how do you know which ones need to be reviewed? Doomworld's idgames only have 5 latest files and I can't seem to locate a list of recent wads :(

*klick me*
Enough?

Zalewa said:

Um, Bloodsheeder?
Because he dosnt has any reviewers?
Because most in here are just some Asshats who just want and wont give?
I am not good at reviewing, maybe because i am not the type to write a thousand words about the same thing. If something is good then its good, if something smells like shit then it smells like shit.

Zalewa said:

Not unless Bloodsheeder fires me.
Maybe the next NS i do could be done with someone else.
I do the short review and another one will do the "story-lenght" review.

But download from ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/pc/games/idgames/newstuff/ or one of the other mirrors.

It can be worse when you come back after, say, two months and need to check which wads were released during that time. I used to check tNC's but now I see this method isn't reliable because sometimes even the links to wads are not given because they are "1994 wads" or updates and you need to "go find yourselves".

Now I'm trying to check newstuff at least once a week or so.

[Cutman]

Ah ok. I'd like to include any wads that were missed last time, like that cyberdemom fisting wad, my dark doom mod and Tormentor's over detailed whatever it is etc etc :P

That's better ;) Though sometimes it's more than two months...

Serioulsy, who the fuck are YOU?

Take it or leave it, it's a newstuff... I don't see you volunteering to do newstuff. It's hard work to put together a GOOD review for a bunch of projects, and we can be grateful we have even summaries of the maps.

[DooMAD]

Ooh, yet another /newstuff drama.

Zalewa said:

Go away and never come back!

Your WAD wasn't even worthy of a review.
Go away and never come back!


//Edit

Damn, Scuba beat me to it.

[Dutch Doomer]

Newbies should start acting like newbies, flaming regulars and making that piece of crap wad to insult Belial isn't gonna put you on anyones good side.

Entry wad was ok Onslaught looks fraggin awsome and still have to check out Didy his map I like his style :)

What kind of review did you expect? Your level sucks.

Please stop making wads. Thanks...

Well OK, then there is the fullsort document. And you can also view the contents of the idgames database in reverse chronological order, although this is in order of their first appearance - new updates to existing files won't show up near the start of the listing (unless they have a new file-name).

[Naan]

I think I could have done better, but I'm kinda out these days...

I think someone should let BastetFury know about HR style maps and there are people who actually enjoy them without a super weapon mod.

[Donce]

Grazza said:

Now this is really good! I wonder how I didn't find this before...

[Zalewa]

My post didn't got deleted so I now know that there are no noobs on doomworld forums.

Uh. I will never stop.


BTW. I believe Gyrotechnics was great and it seems it "deserved" small review too. Gyrotechnics also might be/is (select one) a proof that (according to txt file) Belial actually knows something about what makes levels good. Anyway it's still Tango's great job.

whatever, kthxbye

[june gloom]

dude, zalewa, just stop arguing, okay? it's pointless to argue in DWF.

[msquid]

Tango's Gyrotechnics (t-gyro.wad) is a good map I think. It is linear, but fun to play, especially on UV skill. I liked the challenging ammo/health balance. The detail is just a bit overdone, but it still looks neat.

Hey cool, everyone's forgotten about #260!

[Craigs]

Well, I'm sure the next week will be better.
Why does it always seem like we should be a /newstuff chronicle 320 instead of /296?
