My Little Post Release Rant

[tronicmind]

there are two reasons for doing things:

1. i do it because i think the other´s want it and if i do it for them they like me.

2. i do it because i like to have it and all the others are invited to join but that`s not necessary. i do it for me.

the second reason is strong and honest.
KF 2.0 will survive. no matter what....

hell yeah long live KF

First time poster.

It may not be much, but I do have to say, even with the various bugs, this mod is fantastic. I think you guys have created a real masterpiece right here.

Alex,

I think you have a wonderful Baby, and he looks just like you too. lol I cant wait to see the toddler walk though and I am sure your just as excited to see it walk also. (Walk= additions)

Overall I think this is your best release yet, its the most polished version of your mod and the most Bug free version IMO. ;-)

I think one way you can make the mod Hard/Easy at the Same time is through Server Options. This will allow the player to Choose how hard if at all he wants the game. If he wants it harder then he can add more options or remove them.

Example would be like adding bots in the server menu, or what weapons the player can start with, or Hud display on or off. Little things that allow the PLAYER to make the choice of what he wants. This is the best balance I have found with Mods.

And you are correct, you cannot and will not please the masses, especially the children or teens. They are kids and we have to remember that, they will act like kids and think like kids. SPQR gets over 35,000-50,000 downloads month and with that comes alot of requests that just arent possible.

I had gamers that wanted a game SO HARD that it would be horrible to play, but that was fun for them. Myself it would ruin the game and I made the mod for myself. But what I did is made the game I wanted on Medium and allowed Easy for new players and Very Hard for those Sick %$#ks that like a game fighting 20 battles every turn with no money and huge bonues against you.

On your mod, I say its great, Fun, and polished! I do think some addons would be nice, More rserver options being one of them and the most important.

I also think its important to have a good readme or some sort of instruction manual if possible, this is a compelte Conversion and being such should have details of HOW to play and what to look for with the mod. Right now unless one is a hardcore fan or UT04 or KF they will be lost and may lose interest if they get bashed for asking simple questions that arent answered in a manual or readme. Locations for lockers ect should be marked. and Newbie server options would be nice for those that wish to have fun but not over do it like hardcore UT04 players.

I am fortunate with SPQR as most of the audience that posts is over the age of 30 and this allows me to work within my peer group and have a mature response to issues. Unfortunatly UT04 attracks very Young players, and most mindless without thought or planning. lol This causes major headaches that modders in other fields like Strategy dont have to deal with.

So here is CHEERS to your mod! I look forward to the new patch that "MAY" add those needed server options and allow this wonderful Baby to walk.

P.S. Iron sites for the pistol would be nice. lol Never shot a pistol by hip in a combat situation in my life. ;-)

It's an excellent game. A guy from my clan just discovered it a couple of days ago and we've been playing it like nuts since then. We in [DTE] hope to see more of your work in the future! If there aren't enough server out there, I'll make sure we remove the password on our dedicated server for when we're not having a clan rumble, no reason for it not to be used.
