[reception: CRASH] SunS #4.5 - Futility + Samsara with a guest, BURL TUMD!

[Ijon Tichy]

Game Mode: Survival
IWAD: doom2.wad
WADs: Futility v2.3, Samsara v0.3, BURL SMSRAS v0.01c

SURPRISE! We break from the bi-weekly schedule to bring you even more BURL TUMD, since both FNF and SNS hosted it, and damned if we're going to break a combo. However, TerminusEst13 and Ijon Tichy decided to go the extra mile and push out BURL SMSRAS, an addon to Samsara that adds BURL TUMD, to add on Samsara, along with the runner-up from last week's SunS poll, Futility. This oughta be interesting.

Note: There might be some bugs in BURL SMSRAS. None of them should be major, though.

edit: AND YEAH THERE'S GONNA BE A B RELEASE OF BURL_SMSRAS SO DON'T BE SURPRISED

[Ivan]

So how does this work? Doomguy has better weapons or just the effect side of burl tumd?

[Ijon Tichy]

BURL TUMD is added as an extra class. To compensate, he has a 30% weakness to everything, and everyone else gets 50% extra damage to close the gap. When the DM modes are done, BURL TUMD will likely just do 40% less damage or something.
By the way we're still fixing up bugs, so what you see now for BURL SMSRAS is not what you'll see on SunS.

Code: Select all

18:46 <@TerminusEst13> See this is why you make sure the thing is finished first before making threads :V
18:47 <@TerminusEst13> (he says with a completely straight face)

[Ivan]

Oh I see, interesting then, looking forward to it.

This will, save any out of the blue game-breaking bugs, be what runs on SunS. Don't do DM with it, that hasn't been messed with yet. Coop should be perfectly fine, however.

BURL all week :P

[Balrog]

Holy fucking shit this was awful. First everyone was lagging, then pads stopped working, then the GNUS desunk. I'm going to run something else.

Lower your expectations of SUNS, although yeah this should've at least run properly.

[Ijon Tichy]

I love how everything broke on the main server, yet not on the testing servers.

A FUCKING PLUS ZANDRONUM

[Hypnotoad]

First everyone

No

then pads stopped working

For 3 people.

[Balrog]

I was exaggerating. Most people seemed to be lagging, whether from FPS (expected) or bandwidth (not). Pads breaking is a problem, no matter how many people it affected.

The "advertising" thing was my attempt to make light of the situation. I have no intention of upsurping SunS. Aaand you split it. Oh well, event's over anyway.

It didn't go great, but it was still fun, the lag that occurred every several minutes wasn't too disruptive for me and many others who continued to play fine.

But yes, despite testing and polishing prior to this event, a few bugs spoiled the experience that simply did not occur during any of the testing. It's unfortunate but these things happen.

[Laggy Blazko]

Welp, I couldn't even see the server.
Better luck next time, guys.
