[WIP/Reveal]_GM_The_Man_Eater_(World_Peace_Mission) - Developers

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/8JheGLY.jpg[/IMG] Welcome to the WIP/Announcement thread for the highly anticipated HD re-release and re-telling of the original (and classic) GM_The_Man_Eater saga. I am not looking for feedback, this project has been in the works for the past year. This map is my most ambitious yet and when complete will make a great offering to God (the Christian one) (it is based of off (loosely) of my favorite bible story). GM_The_Man_Eater is a highly advanced Massively Multiplayer Experience with a engrossing story with multiple endings and multiple play styles. THIS IS A CO-OPERATIVE EXPERIENCE, IT IS A HUGE MAP BUT YOU WILL SEE OTHER PLAYERS. You will visit multiple locations from the GM_The_Man_Eater expanded universe (with your friends) and uncover the horrible secrets of a deranged man eating man. THIS MAP IS NOT FOR CHILDREN (VERY VIOLENT DEPICTIONS OF MAN EATING). [U][B] FEATURES[/B][/U] - Dynamic weather - Night day cycle - Massive map (10 minutes or more to go end to end) - Branching Plot lines - Side Quests - Based on Christian Bible Stories - Massive Multi Player - Advanced Enemy AI - HD textures (1024x1024 and bigger) - Cutscenes - Voice Acting - Hundreds of Unique Locations - New Enemies - New NPCs - New Weapons - New Bosses - Rouge-like Elements - Good Soundtrack (Christian) - DLC - Real Life Consequences - Free2Play (donations welcome) - High Speed Download - RP Elements - Lots of Custom Cars [U][B]STORY[/B][/U] After stopping The Original Man Eater you have retired to mundane office life working as a wage slave for the Zionist patriarchy. But one day you hear your cell phone ringing and it's the president with an important mission for you (and your friends). The man eater has created three temples to test your might (and faith), you must complete them and take down The Man Eater (or will you?). Your hot wife begs you to stay home because she doesn't want little Jimmy to grow up with out a dad (it's worked out for others in the past though) but a world with The Man Eater isn't one that you want Jimmy to see. The media has turned everyone against you because it's ran by non Christians and they know you have good faith. By the end the world should know that Christianity is right and they will all convert (World Peace). [U][B] SCREENSHOTS (WIP)[/B][/U] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Yj28wNM.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/0lDxAzi.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/y0kgwp7.jpg[/IMG] If you are looking for early access and are a YT celebrity let's player I am looking for YT friends. We can maybe work out an exclusivity deal for you to preview this map on your channel, many people will be watching and have their eyes on you. Plase send me a DM on this forum or on twitter. In conclusion please get excited you wont know what's hit you once this map has been released to the public. There will be at least 2 servers running this map 24/7 so don't worry you will all get to play it. Also keep an eye out for a new kickstarter, I will be raising money for an EVEN BETTER (hard to do) map in the future. Once agian please no feedback this is still a WIP representing 1% of my total work (screenshots are from a VERY EARLY build (to stop spoilers of the important plot)).

[/QUOTE] I don't know if anyone here on facepunch does but I'm sure you'll find some radical Christian channels who would be more than willing to host videos of this. E. Stormfront, maybe? It seems very anti-Jewish so that could be an idea for you.

[QUOTE=gnampf;50964000]Are you sure you didn't mean for it to come off as anti-semetic because the premise of the story is trying to get the whole world converting for to Christianity to ensure world peace. That and you mention that the protagonist is a wage slave for the Jewish patriarchy and you mention that the media is run by """"non-christians""""". Come on, it isn't even subtle.[/QUOTE] I'm very sorry for being anti-jew, to any jews reading I really didn't mean it in that way. This is strictly a fantasy role playing story about The Man Eater and making a 100% peaceful world (you can't argue that if everyone was one religion there wouldn't be world peace). I just am inspired by my Christian faith to make a Christian based game because there aren't many (but there are plenty Jewish inspired games) :smile:. Also the part about being a wage slave applies to the [I]Zionist[/I] patriarchy not the Jewish one. That part is based on my actual jew friend and his internal struggles to return to his mother land by pressure of his Zionist parents.

[QUOTE]you can't argue that if everyone was one religion there wouldn't be world peace[/QUOTE] I think a better way to achieve world peace would be by getting other religions to look aside their differences and cooperate to improve their living conditions instead of embarking on a journey reminiscent to the Crusades with the goal to convert every Tom, Dick, and Harry to one religion. And how is someone being a wage slave "for the Zionist patriarchy" remotely comparable to one of your friends going to Israel.

Religious discussion aside, is there somewhere we can play this map? I know it's an early build but it looks interesting and it sounds like you're putting a lot of work into it so I'm very curious about it

In an attempt to get the discussion back on target, I've decided to release a Face Punch exclusive screenshot (Please don't share this anywhere else). [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/u9FKgXo.jpg[/IMG] This is an example of one of the [B][I]many[/I][/B] towns in the Man Eater full release. These buildings each have lots of rooms with quest NPCs that will do things like sell you things to maybe even date you (realistic relationship choices).

Is that just a quick compile? Adding a light_environment would make it look better and less "flat".

You mean to tell me you've been sitting on this FP account since 2006, and suddenly come back to post whatever this is? This is some badage boys level of weird shit right here. The fuck is going on.

I read this at 2AM last night and thought I had a fever dream until just now.

If God wanted peace why did he make head crabs?

Oops, accidentally shared facepunch exclusive maps outside facepunch, in game related forums and on 4chan. Sorry :frown: [editline]29th August 2016[/editline] Can I have a private beta release of the maps for me btw, despite leaking the facepunch exclusive screenshots? [editline]29th August 2016[/editline] Also I believe that the Eastern Orthodox Church is the one and true version of Christianity. With Catholics being a splinter cell of heretics.

For one the beta release is not ready yet and for two the map relies on [B][I]very advanced[/I][/B] .LUA scripting algorithms to achieve all of the above listed features. A public beta server will be opening very soon though, as I have been receiving [B][I]LOTS[/I][/B] of PMs asking for a snak preview of the map (PLEASE DON'T PM ME ANY MORE MY INBOX IS ALMOST FULL). I am at work right now, but here is another very hot screenshot showing one of the [B][I]MANY[/I][/B] custom NPCs that you will face off against. This one here is one of The Man Eater's deadly chainsaw drones (WATCH OUT). [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/LOa4qjK.jpg[/IMG]

Forgive me Karas (I'm sorry) for jumping in to your PR work but I feel it is necessary given the feedback we have received. To be short, I am also participating in the development of _GM_The_Man_Eater_(World_Peace_Mission) and have some screenshots of our latest developments. I believe it would be wrong to leave our development so closed off from our community, please forgive me Karas. I'm so sorry. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/FLEIKls.jpg[/IMG]

Some of the things you've mentioned just seem either completely impossible, or possible only by really making everything low detail. Hundreds of Unique locations on a giant map? Either you've used your divine inspiration to completely redesign how the Source Engine works, or I'm going to be walking around on a flat plane looking at blocks. Also Real World Consequences?

In general though, you probably want to add some sort of view obstruction like mountains or dense fog to make your map seem much larger. If you look at HL2 maps, even though they seem large they're usually condensed into a very small area with your view and travel being obstructed both to make the playing area seem larger and for performance reasons. For example: here's the entirety of HL2: Ep2 [t]http://pnmedia.gamespy.com/planethalflife.gamespy.com/fms/images/hl2files/50/1200190046_fullres.jpg[/t] Note that this is several maps stitched together. You won't have that luxury unless you want to host a different server for every map. [quote] If you are looking for early access and are a YT celebrity let's player I am looking for YT friends.

I have a very very big YouTube channel and I would love to do a let's play on the map

[QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]Who is anticipating it? Other than presumably being old, what makes it a classic?[/QUOTE] The original GM_The_Man_Eater map trilogy was released almost 10 years ago and has a very big following that has not left me alone since. I have gotten many requests for a re-release and even some death threats (I got them arrested though). This would have been out sooner, but I had to finish fat camp that my parents sent me too (it didn't work (LOL)). [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]You should be. This looks like something made in a week not a year.[/QUOTE] There have been many revisions of this map leading up to this exact point in time. All of my mistakes have built up until now and this one is the final ultimate form. [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]Expanded universe? It's a fucking map.[/QUOTE] GM_The_Man_Eater universe is full of very deep and very interesting lore that will be told in this re-telling of the famous story. Questions will be answered (and new ones asked??). [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]Oh wow, where to start. Everything you've mentioned has one thing in common. It's not in any of these screenshots. If this is a year's effort, it could be centuries before this gets finished. Some of the things you've mentioned just seem either completely impossible, or possible only by really making everything low detail.[/QUOTE] Please remember that these screenshots are from a [B]MUCH[/B] earlier build than the one that will be released to the public. The map takes almost 5 hours to compile with full detail which makes it very hard for me to take up to date screenshots, but don't worry it is good. [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]Hundreds of Unique locations on a giant map? Either you've used your divine inspiration to completely redesign how the Source Engine works, or I'm going to be walking around on a flat plane looking at blocks.[/QUOTE] Are you questioning my faith? I showed my pastor the latest progress today at church and he [B]LOVED IT[/B]. [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]Fucks sake I'm just going to leave that paragraph alone[/QUOTE] I may have to change a bit of the plot because of the anti-christian feedback. My faith is very important to me, but it is more important that I spread my message through this map. This is an exclusive announcement, but I have decided to add all world religions as a playable class including J[B]EW, MUSLIM, but not AETHIST.[/B] [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]For example: here's the entirety of HL2: Ep2[/QUOTE] This is probably because HALF-LIFE 2 does not have an ending, GM_The_Man_Eater will actually have a complete story (LOL). [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]You've literally implemented none of the features you listed yet after a year. Please don't try to profit on this yet.[/QUOTE] Many of the features are in fact implemented just not pictured (wait for the beta very soon coming out). I am not going to profit from the kickstarter, it is only to help fund development for a future project (I NEED A NEW COMPUTER REALLY BAD (and food)). [QUOTE=laserpanda;50970649]So if you don't want feedback and don't want to spoil anything, why post it?[/QUOTE] You can think of this post as a press release to confirm the rumors are true [B]YES[/B] a new GM_The_Man_Eater [B][I]IS[/I][/B] in development and will be here soon. Thank you for your concern and excitement, I know that this map is much more ambitious and better than most maps but I promise it will be good. :smile:

Making a game about a bible story is fine, just be more humble and make it more subtle, and maybe add some more detail to your map because its kinda just open fields with the occasional building. You need cover.

I already said that I was sorry for being too christian, the plot is no longer christian focused, but I can't help that it is christian inspired. There will still be some christian imagery in the final product though (It is part of the map already (just do that part with your eyes closed if you don't like it, speed runners do that sometimes)).

But Whatever, too be honest I feel like a jerk for berating you so much and Im sorry about that. I think if you want real helpful feedback I would wait until you have a better version of the game with more of the features you promised to show it here, It sounds like it could be a fun game in the future if you keep developing it. I would just say you should make the game more detailed,make sure your story is good (and not preachy, but natural) and make your themes more subtle. A good artist leaves the purpose of the piece open to viewer interpretation,and has complex themes inside their art. Adapt the bible story to a modern (or just a videogame) setting, make us care about the gameplay and characters,[B][U] make it fun[/U][/B], and add detail. I will actually play this when it comes out as It could be good.
