Campaign Contest #1 - Free theme

[RoboHippo]

Mixed Blessing

The drop-outs are disappointing, but for a fairly average mapper such as myself, the reduced competitor count could be benefitial...


Wolves hurt:

(I'm currently using a modified Thrall for the hero, but time permitting, I will make a hero of my own)

 

[Martin Barbov]

Sorry, but I also have to quit. I have made to litle progress to finish on time.
I'll however continue my campaign outside the contest since the idea is great.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Indeed a lot of withdraws

btw the terrain isnt nice robohippo

 

[RoboHippo]

Yeah, I know. I never said it was completed.

I kind of like this part though:

 

[bounty hunter2]

This is better, yet I would like to see the surrounding of it if possible.

 

[Devine]

yup, id agree with an extension.

 

[Linaze]

We have seen very few people even closing in on being anywhere near completion, an extension should not be in place until closer to the deadline, to see if it'll serve any use at all.

 

[Avator]

I think only a lot of people will drop out, because they see they're not going to make it.

 

[bounty hunter2]

If there will be an extension I will probably have time to finish. It would be great

 

[Linaze]

Seems most people are ~ or less than 10% done with their campaign, judging by the fact that almost no direct wips have been posted, and this is the progress of two months. Meaning that even with an extension of a month, people would have to work extremely much harder to have any change whatsoever to finish.

 

[Septimus]

Seems to be failed soon...

 

[bounty hunter2]

I can probably make a average 3 mission boring campaign in one week but I don't know will there be a point for that.

 

[Nbah]

Well, just for the sake of it, it may be fun. Besides you may make it awesome enough to win some spot ffs, you can never be sure ^_^

 

[Linaze]

A 3 mission campaign in one week, man that must suck bad for sure. Only reason anyone would do that would be for the prices that comes with winning this shit.

Yea I mean by this point I can't make anything quality, and I am sure that there won't be more then 3 contestants so if I make it it will be only for the reputation lol, but I don't think I will anyway.

 

[Sabertooth]

Christmas break is coming up, I may throw something together.

 

[HyperActive]

I'm over my head with exams, and more important I lost inspiration for the campaign. It was just a big bite for one map-maker. I'll try to finish it, I'm half way done, but...yeah...

 

[bounty hunter2]

And as I said most probably who finishes wins. :/

 

[Sabertooth]

Who is is working?
I've finished terraining map #1. I plan to have either 3 or 4 maps at completion.
It's going to be an adventure, with exploring and logical stuff. Could end up pretty fun or pretty damn boring. Dunno yet though.

 

[Callahan]

I'm working

 

[Kwah]

C-C-C-OMBO BREAKER!

Anyway, I'm waiting for it.

 

[Sabertooth]

Ooh, I forgot about Callahan. I don't know how.

Starting triggering on map 1 and thinking storyline over more thoroughly.

EDIT: Oh, there's actually still a lot of people left? I wish this had a little table thing on the first page like in the PMC. =X

 

[RoboHippo]

I have a prelude cinematic, and a mostly finished first mission. Being sick doesn't help at all...

Can somebody get that guy to heal me?

Lol!

At least give us a small peek of your achievements ,so far?

 

[bounty hunter2]

Afterall there are some people who are making progress. I'l try to finish then.

 

[Duke]

I'm in aswell! ^^

 

[RoboHippo]

completed mission

Well, it took many long nights, but here it is:

Pwnz:
Teh epic kind
--------------------

Your journey begins:

A nefarious scheme:

A glorious triumph:

A shocking twist:

 

[Avator]

How small do you want your chances of winning to be?

 

[Hawkwing]

Yeah, really.

 

[Dark Destiny]

Very small they will be ^^

 

[Linaze]

If noone else submits, i'd rather die than seeing this fool get an award, really.

 

[Dark Destiny]

Yup ;D

 

[Mechanical Man]

Who finish anything, has huge chance to win.

 

[Anachron]

Like the "Contest with the 3 teammembers"... Hmm seems like we are overdoing contests.. We should continue smaller ones.. Campaigns are to much.

 

[Septimus]

We never have any campaign contest, so that is why we are having 1 right now.

 

[Anachron]

Yes, that fine, I just said that it was to much. Nothing else.

 

[bounty hunter2]

OMG that is one awsome campaign. oO btw is that a joke?

 

[Linaze]

Perhaps it is a retarded attempt to get the award icon, who knows? Either way, Anachron speaks the truth, there is to much work involved when making a campaign for most people to ever finish, seems people need several months to finish and keep quality, correct me if i'm wrong.

 

[D a w n]

If he submits it like this I will make a similar map like this , but WITH a terrain

 

[bounty hunter2]

If noone else submits, i'd rather die than seeing this fool get an award, really.

I agree here.

And moths for a quality campaign are true and false. You can make a good campaign in 3 even 2 weeks if you spend 2 hours on it each day, even less, one hour each day for 3 missions and 2 cinematics. I will try doing it in 2 weeks.

 

[Anachron]

None of you is right or wrong. It still pends on how much work you are able to put into your campaign and how much hours you are able to spend for it. I am sure you can do the same campaign in 1 week or 1 months, meaning it depends on reallife and so many other factors that nobody can think of.

I personally dislike now ideas like campaigns and such big things, lets try to keep it simple, but effective please.

 

[bounty hunter2]

True. Anyhow I do hope sombody else finishes besides that guy.

 

[Anachron]

Well I really hope that too.. And I hope we learned from that... The second big contest and it... fails...

 

[Paladon]

I suddenly have a great idea for a (small) campaign. Well, not much time left but maybe i´m going to join xD

 

[bounty hunter2]

Just finish it and you are the winner. Or maybe Callahan if he does

 

[Paladon]

Don´t be that pessimistic. Having a good idea is pure fun. I don´t care whether i finish it. But i´ll try.

 

[Avator]

Next time such a contest is held: Give a lot of time, allow teams and definitely set a minimum quality in order to get a prize at all. Right now you better give no reward then giving a reward to a campaign that somebody worked on for 5 minutes.

 

[bounty hunter2]

I am not pesimistic. I know having a idea is pure fun, but I say finish for the sake that the other guy with his campaign doesn't win. Go one page back and you will see his posts oO

 

[Paladon]

Woot. Sorry.^^

 

[Anachron]

He is right... =) xD lol ..
