[WIP] Forsaken: Age of Ciproxus (New Screenies - Page 2)

[Lord_Jirad]

Howdy folks!
You may remember me and my band of merry idiots from such projects as Delta Complex, DeathDealer and in this case most importantly, Forsaken. http://forum.zdoom.org/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=15983 for all those who need a little reminding.

Well, anyway, if you do recall from that Forsaken topic...

Calculated odds of project completion: ZERO

Well done Wills, you were very close! Anyway, the situation is like this: Each member of the Forsaken team broke up and went their separate ways. Forsaken has now been put on hold, but the team members went out creating independent projects still under the name "The Forsaken Team". Two of said projects were mentioned above.
However, I was left out of the loop, as I had no ideas for a project of my own. Thus, after trying several bogus ideas I took an extended hiatus from doom mapping, occasionally testing my comrades wads and putting in constructive feedback.

But, recently I have reopened my search for a project to work on. Then it hit me... ( Quite literally, I walked into a tree and then devised a plan for what to do. ) I now reveal to you my own independent project.

I fell back onto an idea I had back in the days for Forsaken. This wad went by the name of Age of Ciproxus, and was intended to be an expansion to Forsaken. I, now, am working on the creation of this wad as a prologue to Forsaken instead. It will show off some of Forsaken's features, weapons and it's advanced monster AI, while keeping stunning gameplay, a highly immersive storyline and traditional Forsaken humour.

Get ready everybody, because Forsaken is coming. Watch this space for more details on storyline, game updates and new alpha and beta releases! All constructive criticism is welcome.

(4th June) EDIT: Sorry for not releasing any screenshots sooner, I have been otherwise occupied and have not had time to do anything doom related. Thankfully progress can now continue. Here are the first two screenshots of the wad so far...

2 weeks and 4 days But that's not the point. I can now continue work on F-AoC since I have finished all that darn schoolwork.

[corysykes]

[CaptainToenail]

[corysykes]

[Cutmanmike]

Looks neat.

Is that Scientist sprite new? I mean, it's pretty clearly the Blake Stone scientist guy with one of those Variant skin heads, but still.

[.+:icytux:+.]

no no no, that scientist is ooold. try playing action doom. thats where they come from.

[TheDarkArchon]

no no no, that scientist is ooold. try playing Marine Assault. thats where they come from.

Fixed.

[Lord_Jirad]

Personally I have no idea where that sprite came from. It's the sprite used by the Mid'jet GE Scientist from Forsaken, I do believe Sykes added it. When I scoured the wad for things from Forsaken to use in F-AoC, it seemed to stand out.
