I just realized that DonDon was never a member here. Another player was asking me today about the idea of shooting the buildings from the ground on the map DM-Crane. That always makes me think of Don Don every time I play that map or hear it's name. LOL. CYA!

As much as I enjoy emulating Mahatma's old trick of translocating up onto one of the antenna masts on the roof, and then shooting back down at those bottom feeders (and occaisionally fragging one of them), I think that perhaps the entire floor of that map should be modified into a gigantic kill zone.

We have been speaking over at your place about the ins and outs of modifying maps; but in this case since DM-Crane is a standard map, I don't think it would matter if we had someone do this.

Don Don also like Dark City ][

I remember telefragging him all the time.

He never "talked"

N6NU

Oh yeah, he talked. He always complained at the end of the game right before he left especially if he lost and the last words were always something along the lines of we were all pu**ies.

I always almost banned him for that but I felt sorry for him in a sad sort of way and he also usually managed to make me smile because I felt better about myself after playing against him especially when he lost.

I'm not knocking him at all here. I'm saying he made my life better with him in it than worse is all. Thanks Don-Don!

Yeah, we could modify Crane as it is a stock map - just like deck16 has been.
Maybe I'll do that and add it to my Old Skool Redeemer server!

Great! Please make the kill zone start about half way down the tower and cover everywhere below that point. Perhaps you could leave the lower floor levels as they are. They are kill zones if you fall or drop down there, but translocating there lets you survive. As long as the players remain in the general intended play area up on the building I think it's ok, as an extra hiding place is always welcome.

I just remembered ...
My Server is SRA style or Old Skool!
No Translocator!
So there is no way to get down there other than SPLATTING on the ground LOL!!!
But, I will modify Crane as you wish.
I share your ideas on this one.
This isn't a priority for me as I have a lot of other things to do first but I'll get to it.

Oh but there is a way to get down to ground level...

Do tell how to do it on Hook's server with no translocator. Yes, even I don't know.

Just go down the double secret invisible elevator...
And if that doesn't work just go Admin and fly down...

I'll have to take a look at Crane by myself and see what can be done!
Can you get down to the streets?
Or Not?

Not.

Not without splatting eh?
Well, if anyone wants to play Crane the man's way, go to CMM!

Old topic but whatever happen to DonDon?
