Title: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Jeron [SharpSh00tah] on October 23, 2008, 01:14:55 am
Well first off, how is everyone?

Im trying to get the feel on over all activity so I am asking for ONE AND ONLY ONE simple post.
We are asking for  two simple sentences as listed below.

A) We ask for the that fact your active.
             (Yes or no / 2) The 2 means on an average how many days out of the week do you visit the site

B) One legitement reason on what we can improve on game play, weapon, fundementals,etc etc.
             (Please do not critique on things like when is the release date, why do you guys suck so bad ETC, ETC.)

You misspelled census.  :P

Post by: Jonathon [SSL] on October 23, 2008, 01:59:08 am
A) Yes / This site is my homepage, I visit it every day

B) I would really like to hear better gun sound effects over the ones from beta 1, so that all guns sound distinct and different, and actually sound like REAL guns, like the gun sounds from ge64, but updated.

Post by: Sergeant Kelly on October 23, 2008, 04:08:20 am
A) I check this site as part of my daily routine on the internets. So pretty much every day.

B) Weapons and gameplay are very fun, and the only thing I think the game needs more of is choice. For example, "A create your own weapon spawn set" feature at the menu and maybe more player model variations in the vein of the Bond suit colors. (Ourumov with hat! :D)

Post by: 1Rusky on October 23, 2008, 04:17:57 am
A)I visit the site everyday and multiple times as well.

B)I trust that you guys will come through as far as content, gameplay,gamemodes, and fixing of bugs. So what I'd like to see you do is give the mod a better Goldeneye feeling such as a better main menu, Bond-like waiting screens when you're entering a server, and maybe new or more music to the main menu. (Maybe like a remix of Tina Turner's song)

Shit, more than 1 sentence. I'm sorry :-X

Post by: brex on October 23, 2008, 04:35:15 am
a. check once a day.
b. same as 1rusky's post; add in more small bond like features, for the waiting screens and the server lists etc. also create some hype for the release by creating a GE:S trailer video that is properly made.
Title: Re: 10/08 Cencus - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: soyboy1800 on October 23, 2008, 07:15:01 am
A)  Yes / 4 (more so recently)

B)  Can't think of anything that hasn't been said, the stuff in the updates looks awesome.

Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: X-tra on October 23, 2008, 12:30:26 pm
A. Yes / 3 times per days, waiting for some news like this one ;D

B. It would be awesome if you guys complete "create a server" option and MAYBE add some bots.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Rodney 1.666 on October 23, 2008, 03:08:30 pm
A) Yes / 7.? I refresh this and my other forum (small forums :)) whenever I feel like it to check for new posts, several times a day.

B) Implementing the radar would be an awesome touch. Better yet, allowing the server operator to turn it off or on.


(Swapped the proximity mine problem out for radar suggestion)
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: monkeyface on October 23, 2008, 05:38:01 pm
A) Yes / 7

B) Make the crosshair obsolete. Even if there were a crosshair on the screen, you'd have to rely on "feeling". Base the firing on factors such as movement speed, mouse location, mouse speed, slight auto-aim perhaps and finally add some random numbers on top. If you were to visualize the crosshair, it should jump around so much that you couldn't really predict the next bullet, you'd have to expect it instead of just using your eyes. Simply making it invisible wouldn't cut the deal. Right now I feel this could be the most important aspect of the game play.

Post by: olileauk on October 23, 2008, 06:04:32 pm
A) Yes / 5 (I vanish, then i return, but i've still been here for years and I've never not come back)

B) Being able to create your own custom weapon loadouts, with ease (rather than finding the appropriate file and editing it manually) would actually kick ass. =D
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Cyan on October 24, 2008, 12:26:10 am
a) yes, stop by 2 or 3 days of the week

b) I do miss the player positions thing at the top of the screen to tell where others are. (I know it isn't really lifelike but would be a nice option if it wasn't to hard to implement, and I am guessing that their is relatively easy access to all the players coordinates in the 3d space).
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Doc.NO on October 24, 2008, 01:38:40 am
A) No / 8. I never check this board. Seriously...
(http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/4104/notactivetp0.jpg)

B)
- Fundementals: I've been surprised to see the menu background hasn't been changed as well as the windows/menu. Something to work on probably.
- Weapon: like Rodney 1.666 said... Work on proximity mines. This is no fun at all. Half of the noob just jump in a server and throw a shitload of proximity mines. Thanks god it's now banned on most of the servers in 1.1 but, yeah, make it so players need to think while using this. Maybe only last X proximity mines stuck working (X not too high please, or CVAR). Maube feasable with LUA?

It would be awesome if you guys complete "create a server" option and MAYBE add some bots.
Disagree. Completely useless. And time consuming.

Disagree. Completely useless. And time consuming.

Hey at least I said MAYBE in capitals letters. I was just thinking about that for a far beta version ::). Because most of the time, there is no one in any of the servers. So...

Post by: Sean [Baron] on October 24, 2008, 03:28:08 am
One post only please, will help us sort through the feedback alot easier.

Thanks :)
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Dotmister on October 24, 2008, 09:27:12 am
A) I check the site everyday, but not the forums. Maybe you guys should post onto the mainsite frontpage more often so the mod doesn't look dead

B) Not an in-game suggestion, but perhaps more activity in the developer diaries for example.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: CCsaint10 on October 24, 2008, 05:43:10 pm
1) Check every day. It is part of my routine schedule. Beta 3 looks so promising so I can't wait.

2) I really don't care what some people might says, the front page of the website should really be updated when there is an update like the beta 3 update. Otherwise, it really defeats the purpose of "redesigning" the web page like it is now. Some people aren't the blog/forum type so they will not go into the forums and see if there is an update. If you are curious of activity from people, that is one way to really boost the community which would also give you guys more developers because of activity. Very important.
    Gameplay wise, everything looks like it is pulling together nicely. I am in total agreement of "create a server" option, and that almost ALL the gun sounds need to be redone. The RCP90 and the AR33 just sound cheesy. They need to sound more realistic. Thanks for the "Census blog". These are what I wait to see every day. Something new. :D Thanks GE:S team an sorry for all the crap i give you guys. I really do support you, and I am not trying upset you. :D
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: mbsurfer on October 26, 2008, 01:51:42 am
1.) Yes / I check practically every day. It's a routine check whenever I'm on the internet, I check back multiple times a day usually

2.) I trust that you guys will just make everything exactly like the original Goldeneye.  I just think that you should keep jump and other non-goldeneye things as a server side option.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Senshi on October 26, 2008, 09:20:12 pm
a) check everyday

b) just make it like the original :)
    i wish i could give you guys more critic but i didn't played your new beta and the 1.1 isn't really (seriously) playable
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: UnKnown-Pain on October 27, 2008, 12:31:10 pm
Most days depends when curiousity creeps in.

Improvements ? Well a fully functional Golden Gun mode with a working radar like in the original when someone picked up the golden gun their dot on the radar would change colour. That to me was a great mode in GE64 and it will please many people if adapted correctly for the source engine. Radar is a must.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: MtM0201 on October 27, 2008, 10:56:16 pm
a - I visit the site at least twice every day

b - I hope you guys can make the golden gun more unique looking and less blockish, and also try and make it so you can hold 2 different weapons at once like that old glitch
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Ruone Delacroix on October 28, 2008, 01:34:59 am
A) I visit the site when I remember I should. I registered last fall, and totally didn't check or post until last month :\ So all in all, a couple times a week. I will make more of an effort to post on here.

B) At the present time, I cannot think of anything to contribute as feedback other than you also spelled "legitimate" wrong as well.

And uhh... could anyone PM me the details of if there will be a Single Player mode somewhere down the road? I know its far too soon to say, but has there been any talks about it?
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: shadowdeku on October 29, 2008, 02:34:34 am
1. I check the site usually 2-3 times a week

2. You could add another gameplay mode, because the mod is pretty boring in its current state. Maybe some capture-the-flag style stuff or maybe even a CS knockoff. I also agree you should start posting some stuff on the main site, so I won't have to scavenge through the forums for any news.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: StrikerMan780 on October 30, 2008, 11:05:15 pm
1. 1-3 times a week.
2. Make the Aim mode more like GoldenEye's, as in being to aim the Crosshair at any point on the screen with the mouse. This function exists in SMOD and PD: Source, and it would be cool to see it in GES.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: hipv2289 on November 13, 2008, 05:22:24 pm
1. I try to check it once every two weeks, as I don't post and this is my first time having an account in over a year.
2. Better sounds, but I'm not complaining, you are doing an excellent job. Oh, and is it a server side choice to start with guns? or is that built in?
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: VC on November 13, 2008, 08:11:40 pm
Start Armed is a server option.  It should be giving people Hunting Knife vs. Slap on normal modes and PP7-S over Slap in LTK.  I don't know if that's how it is functioning at this time, however.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: hipv2289 on November 14, 2008, 06:51:36 pm
I always seem to start with a mix of guns.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: jeph on November 23, 2008, 09:43:08 pm
1) I check the site every couple of weeks

2) nothing I can offer as constructive critique except what has already been stated.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: NoodlePudding on December 06, 2008, 07:09:49 pm
1: Ive been away for a good long while but now that im back i will probably check the site everyday.

2: I think the game needs more frequent releases/updates. From what ive seen so far of the new build it looks great, the bad part is that noone can play it.

A) I check every day in the morning and afternoon
B) I think you should update the front page more often and put in a radar so players can see where other people are in the map

Post by: Storm101 on December 07, 2008, 10:09:56 pm
Now that I've been here for a month I'll fill this out.

A) Yes, I'm pretty active. I don't post much, but I check this site about 3-5 times a day.

B) Probably improve on the hit detection. I realize that there's currently a topic going on about this, but it seems a lot of times I can shoot someone that is standing still on LTK and even see blood come out, but they don't die.

Same. same thing.

B) I dont play nearly enough.
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Snowfreak on December 21, 2008, 04:33:55 am
A.)  Yes, about 5 times give or take.

B.)  (Bug wise and most important) HIT DETECTION needs to be fixed badly, and as for content, some more modes would make the game many many times better (such as Capture the flag, king of the hill, elimination, and other modes that are more than killing people frantically).

Very good job so far guys, but those two things are the key elements that are needed for people to enjoy this game.  I have confidence in the team ;).

A) Yes/ 3 or 4 times a day.

B) More Maps, one in particular "Bunker". Every other grip I had has been adressed so keep up the good work  ;D
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: jjmusicnotes on March 02, 2009, 02:51:18 pm
a.) yes / multiple times a day

b.) i would like to see the original intro move from the N64 version along with the same music they had.  I think it would also be cool if they had a menu so that you could set up a game where you just play against bots (which would be handy if let's say, valve inadvertently destroyed all of the servers.)
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: Staaf on March 05, 2009, 11:56:28 am
A) Yes / Practically every hour

B) Trevelyan / Xenia / Natalya / Maybe even some cool characters like Arctic Bond or Siberian Special Forces
    Bunker / Library New Map (saw it in a different topic)

God i love this game
Title: Re: 10/08 Census - Your Feedback & Activity
Post by: JcFerggy on March 05, 2009, 12:09:48 pm

A) Yes / A few times a day.

B) More maps.
