Hi Dark, First, my congratulations on beating Quckman without the time stopper. I know from firsthand experience that level is a real serious challenge. I never beat it without the time stopper myself when I had sight so congratulations on your success.
Second, as for the difficulty issue we've been over that several times on list. Obviously, I'm making progress in those areas myself with Mysteries of the Ancients, and do hope to include more of these sorts of things in future games. Probably even in future updates of the games like Mysteries of the Ancients as I have time to create a better design. I agree with you that just merely setting difficulty settings from easy to advanced isn't enough. I know in the Genesis 3D engine as it stands now all doing that does is give the enemies better stats like faster speed, more hitpoints,perhaps greater attack damage. That's certainly more challenging, but there is no alternative ways to play the game or optional weapons that necessarily change the outcome of any specific level. Although, like Tomb Raider MOTA does have a wide range of weaponry that does change the feel of the game depending on what weapon or weapons you choose to use. An Uzi is certainly more damaging than a sword in the long run because you not only have range but a single burst of fire hits the enemy with five bullets at once. You can rack up a lot of hitpoints rather quickly from a distance making it a rather effective weapon. Still, the sword is still the most powerful weapon because it does a lot of damage as well, but you have to move in closer and risk taking damage yourself while racking up those hitpoints. So there is some strategic value there I suppose. Cheers! --- Gamers mailing list __ [email protected] If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to [email protected].
