Author Topic: AVM (Aliens VS Marines)  (Read 4202 times)

Hello I am here today to talk to you about Me and Walla's AVM server. What the server is is a TDM where you are either a Colonial Marine or a Xenomorph. Xenomorphs get claws and go faster, while, marines get guns, grenades, and a medkit. Xenomorphs have Vents  which they can go into and hide/sneak up while marines get guns, grenades, and a medkit... Marines now have the M41A pulse rifle like in the move 'Aliens'. Right now we have a beta life cycle on it for aliens. It dosn't work quite like we would hope but right now we cant do much about that.
The AVM battle currently has a cross between a small and a medium sized map (or as i like to say: a smedium) where its a science lab area with some stuff. The map isn't laid out nice and organized like most maps. It was made more of 'think it as you go' build. But that dosn't change how fun it is plus new things are added almost every day. they may be small they may be unnoticeable or the addition may be as big as a new room. Either way, we got your back covered! (with fachuggers >:D)

Also here is a face for the Xenomorph for a little more eye candy

The basic game is simple:
Aliens: kill humans, evolve, use stealth, and kill humans...
Colonial Marines: shoot everything that moves (except other humans), and watch your teammates backs.

Hazards:
There is a Nokaze Brand catwalk: "building catwalks without rails since 2502" with an electrified floor under it.
There is an acid room which only aliens can go in without dieing.
There are vents which if entered... something happens if your a marine.

Credits:
Walla: For getting the idea, hosting it, and building it.
Nokaze: For the main part of eventing, and as Walla puts it "Building like half the base"
Lusk: For doing something that i don't know yet probably helping build it and eventing some of it.
Sniper: For sitting around while other people worked and "tested" when we wanted him to. and for letting us torture him at one point
Jake: For something, like Lusk i don't know what he did, but he is making the M41A Pulse Rifle.
and For of course the movie 'Aliens' which never could have been made without the idea of Xenomorph the by H.R. Geiger, Truly buddy give yourself a hand *clap clap clap*.

Screenies of Xenomorphs:
1. Drone/warrior
2.Queen
3.facehugger (its preatorian but eh who cares it gives the basic idea)
4.A marine being attacked by some aliens

Yea I'm gonna add those in a little while.

Thats what I forgot to mention! yes aliens can destroy lights and they'll come back on when the mini restarts... but we're having a glitch where some of them don't seem to come on again
What next Aliens vs predators?

Sorry but no; the next build will be aliens vs marines. sorry but me and Walla do not want there to be aliens and marines and predators all running around shooting and ripping each other apart

But it is fun.
if by not that greatly built you mean not planned out then yes your right its totally random.
if by not that greatly built you mean its not that skilled of building then your kinda' right but as long as its fun does it matter?
if by its not that greatly built you mean its both of the above then take the answers and put them together...  :cookieMonster:


I did something like this back in 2008, although it was a much simpler plan.



Hallways connected to main rooms and small walkways underneath floors. All you really need are emitters, a uniform hallway design, and a grid to make navigating easy. I'm sure you or someone with knowledge of events could create a way to have doors lock from the inside and have breakable walls/grates.

we do have stuff like

Where's hydralisk lol

As in where is he in the credits?
Nowhere because he got the idea from me and Walla; then went and made his build and addons.
Don't believe me? Ask him.
