game improvement

Post by TheChris80 »

hi

i just wonder why Warzone was not one of the best selled games even it deserved it bcoz it was with this gameplay was awesome for this time as it came out. (sorry my bad english i dont know how to describe better)
I guess the problem was the Presentation
only 3 music tracks for example

So i thought why we dont try to improve the Game by a contest.
in this time is not the best player the winner.

what about a map and music contest and the community decide what will come in the new version of warzone.
it could be done easy in forums.
someone adds a song with link in the contest topic and a mod put it in the vote table if the contest time is over and the community decide what comes with the next update.
with maps and other stuff we could do same =)

EDIT: to MOD if i am in the wrong section for it pls put it in the right one =)
Thanks alot =)
What are you thinking about ?

The game is constantly being improved and evolving. While there may not be new music in the main installer there has been new music posted for use with the game.

As far as sound improvements in general.. You can easily look at Total Annihilation and Neverwinter Nights for various ideas on how sound can be done. It all boils down to manpower. Something which this project lacks enough of to change everything in a speedy manner. To make matters worse, those who are active developers of this project can not do so full time do to real life constraints. So, even with new audio, maps, etc. people are needed to approve and add such content to the game each release. Something else that requires manpower.

Its not a matter or having the content but getting the time to actually add it to the game.

Sir, but those are simply Epic :) I listen to them hundreds of times :)

Three tracks are enough if they are good. Remember that originally you had only one track when you played through the CDs, one for each CD. Back then I thought the track associated with CD 1 was a perfect expression of WZ. I could listen to it for hours on end. Whoever chose those three tracks for WZ was a genius.

Don't forget that one of the best soundtracks ever - on Syndicate - was not really music at all!

I dunno about you but I think the main warzone theme song is awesome.
