DISMAY by Dezarath: At the Gates you will find Dismay..

Okay a little to the left...I said left. Screw it just leave it there.

It's funny how Bungie's game can screw you up sometimes for no reason. I chalk that up to just the normal bs in life you deal with on a everyday basis or being a dumbass. I was originally working on a map called Godzilla. It was a massive tower with a air tight elevator system that would shoot Kill balls to the top of what had to be at least several colosseum walls straight up. They would then chase the player down a series of flights to a waiting bowl that funneled them up again and again.

I know better to let friends in when I'm working on something, but I really like the kid. So in he came and I saved the map after showing it off. Somehow it saved over another map and was erased and replaced by Panic. I guess Panic was pissed I wasn't returning her calls.

Panic in all her fat glory.

As you can see Dismay is Panic with a excellent boob job and some months in the gym. Now she's hot and I'm stuck with some memories of some bad nights at Denny's. All joking aside Panic taught me a lot about how to use Kill Balls and Man Cannons. Tiamat and Gehenna owe much to this first forging attempt. And Dismay owes the doomed Godzilla for it's restoration.

C'mon in and basically scream a...lot.

So lets talk about Dismay. Dismay takes some core elements from Tiamat in the jump and use of the Hangar again. I reworked the elevators using elements from Godzilla. Stacking x-large bridges and sandwiching the Man Cannon proved a success in floating the player and Kill Ball quickly and without breaks in the inertia. I did away with Panic's 50/50 chance of survival of dropping in from it's original top entrance. Instead I moved that entrance to the half way mark, so the player would survive the initial drop

You know what's happening here? You're not dying by gravity and flooring.

With Panic I had Red and Blue Team both on one side separated by a wall. They would then jump through a portal to the top and not see the other till they reached the far end near the original top entrance. With Dismay they are across from each other on far ends of the structure. They still use a portal to reach the top and it's a free for all once there.

Let's see blood thirsty opponents and Kill Balls trying to fry my ass off. YAY!

More to come.....
