theawesometrex @ Edain Mod

Hello everyone!
Before I say anything else I'd like to first state that I am completely new to this mod, but NOT to the Battle of Middle Earth games which are possibly one of my favorite three games of all time! Even though I haven't played them in quite a few years!
I also don't use Moddb much these days, given the fact that I hat to reset my account to write this comment.

The Good: I like the mechanics of this one, the way it marries the first and the last two games together is just utterly brilliant! The reintroduction of Rohan as faction is possibly my favorite thing this mod does as I personally thought their absence in the second game was a rather poor decision by the devs! And there are many other positive things that I could state but I am trying to not make this one too long.

The Bad: One thing I absolutely despise is what has been done with the Hero voices! The original voices were constructed efficiently, made out of short efficient quotes!
They were nothing spectacular but neither did they have to be, they were meant to not be repetitive non intrusive and a lot of cases point to what the unit was doing at the time! Also I find them to be very endearing.
These new ones are in the best cases non-fitting, in the worst cases disastrously bad choices.
Gandalf running around the field using his movie lines might sound like good idea on paper, but in execution the result is him sounding like a whispering madman that had a serious mix-up with his pipe weed herbs.
And don't even get me started on Boromir, what did you do to the poor man, someone that sounds like that should not be in the middle of a battlefield.

theawesometrex @ Brutal Doom

Hello everyone! Haven't logged into this site for what feels like ages! Have been playing Doom on and off for a while though! It is most likely my favorite FPS of all time, and I say that without a hint of hesitation! And the Brutal Doom mod has to be the best cherry on top in history!

But from playing the latest version I have noticed this one thing that annoys me to no end, it's the DoomGuy going "Humph" sound when he drops from even the most minute ledge possible! Not really sure if this is a glitch on my part but It gets very annoying very fast, and it just does not stop!
Is there possibly a way to remove this?

theawesometrex @ XV117's Monster Expansion - 1.2-Pre3

Hey man! This is a nice mod idea you've got here, and I would like to see more in the future!
I've been playing this thing recently and the only way I can describe it as, is Project Brutality only I can play it for more than a few minutes without a headache! I personally find Project Brutality a little too much, and without clear direction! Too many enemies, too many nonsensical weapons, and as much I hate the word "Bawlance"! Project Brutality seems to hate it even more, because it threw the thing out the window and Impaled it on a parking meter! Some people might like that, but I don't really seem to!
Which leads me to my only complaint so far;
The Cyber Barron, is broken as all hell (pun intended)! That thing can attack threw the walls, in a straight vertical line and in some instances does more damage than an actual Cyberdemon, who is a boss level enemy!
I am not suggesting that you nerf him, I'm sure he has his place! But don't replace Barrons with them! They are certainly not meant for that role!

Excuse me for jumping in.
But I'll say this, for once I believe that this is some of the best comment sections on this site, might as well be on the whole internet! The people seem so chilled and helpful, and most of all they even seem to tolerate criticism towards the mod itself!
I'll have you know that is rare in any modding community! In my humble opinion this creator seems to attract some the best people out there, which says a lot about him!
And to those that truly believe that this mod deserves a 1/10....seriously, get over yourself!

theawesometrex @ Beyond Skyrim: Morrowind - Official Teaser #1

Interesting how Skyrim is practically immortal at this point! As much credit as Bethesda likes give itself! Honestly at this point Skyrim is a community game first and foremost! The things I've seen being done with this game still boggles my mind sometimes, and people keep working on it! At this point this Beyond Skyrim series of mods I've seen might as well have created an entirely new Elder Scroll series, especially if one combines them. Too bad they still have to do it in Skyrim's rather limited engine.

Alright! I failed to mention that I was playing the previous version of the beta...then January 2018 release! Since then a new one has come out, and I'm glad to say that all my previous complaints don't count anymore. The machine Guns are as they should be, all is good, all is right....except for the demons! They should REALLY be running back to Hell right about now!

theawesometrex @ Brutal Doom

If you were to allow me a quick review for the new Beta version in just a couple of words, I'd say this:

The new version has a lot of the things I ever wanted in this mod, that I thought were missing in the older version! The addition of the Pistol and SMG has been handled perfectly, one could hardly have done it in a better way than this!
The Shotguns I've noticed also have had quite a few improvements themselves, the addition of the Auto is well managed and balanced, the Sawed off has also seen quite an improvement due to changes of location damage on some enemies you can actually get crazy devastating headshots on even the most powerful enemies, but the Pump action has seen the best improvement of them all, this was my second favorite gun in the game now it is now possibly the best shotgun I've ever seen in any game ever!
The machine guns however is where I get a little disappointed, the Assault Rifle is pretty damn good, the sound is just perfect here! However the other two are a bit of a miss in my opinion! The addition of the Machine Gun although a welcome addition, has been handled poorly! It doesn't do enough damage and is hilariously inaccurate at even what I would describe as slightly further than close ranges, and the minigun is just a complete miss in opinion! Although the fire rate has been increased the damage has been slightly reduced, and just like the former it is laughably inaccurate due to it being almost impossible to control! This used to be a devastating gun with the "high ammo equals complete devastation" mentality it had, it was the perfect gun for facing of waves of enemies! Strong weak, it didn't matter this thing turned everything into minced meat if you got enough shots in! Now I've seen enemies shrug 50+ shots thrown their way like nothing due to the low damage and controllability issues of the gun! Especially at medium ranges this thing has become useless.

I won't mention anything else due to the comment getting longer than I expected! But I'll just say that I am satisfied with everything else.

theawesometrex @ New Warcraft III Patch Makes Its Editor Even More Powerful

I think they wrote themselves into a corner with this particular franchise. World of Warcraft kinda rained on its parade pretty hard, let's just be honest with that one.
If they do bring it back however, I get the feeling that it will be something like Generals 2! Hell maybe even a free to play multiplayer only game with lotsa micro transactions to rake in them Dollaz! Let's just sy that the current state of the gaming industry doesn't provide me with confidence. Alos I get that feeling that it can fail in the same way that GEN2 did, maybe not so badly just due to the fact that for Blizzard a lot more hinges on this franchise then it did for EA with C&C! Also EA is ****!
Still let's be gratefull that they at least gave us this much.

theawesometrex @ New Warcraft III Patch Makes Its Editor Even More Powerful

In all honesty! I find myself in very weird position right now, I mean it's kinda hard to believe this!
Why make a patch now? Like let's just say it has been a while since this game was released you know! Seriously does anyone know what is going on!

theawesometrex @ Rise of the Reds ECA Panzer Buff patch for 1.86

Well this great , I personally thought that after a certain update the Jagdmammut was turned into an absolute atrocity! I know it was done in the name of "Balance" but a tank is a tank! No tank in any medium should have trouble destroying buildings! I like everything else about this mod except this, In fact I believe Rise of the Reds turns Generals into one of the best Cnc games out there!
And also let's consider the tank is pretty damn slow and more importantly very hard to maneuver, as far as I've seen this thing comes to almost a complete stop when it hast to turn, which also happens take in eternity! This makes it easy prey from aircraft to specialized infantry before it even has to face another tank, hell even other tanks would be able to obliterate it in second if this is caught by surprise, which is the only thing it's really supposed to be good at this point!

What I usually do Is build defenses as early as possible, or more precisely choke points! I try to find places that force enemy troops to line up! That way it gives your defensive structures (or even other units) the possibility of concentrating fire! That way they have to fight fever units at a time and also gives the enemy units less time to cause damage! However you should also have some anti artillery units at hand ASAP, because those will ruin your **** in seconds if you don't pay attention!

All I can say is that it is as good as it looks and better than that still!
These guys made Generals 2 without even realizing it!
And EA stand for "Eat ****" BTW!

This has to be the funniest mod I've ever seen for this game! Sometimes it's funny in not so subtle ways...not gonna spoil any of those beautiful moments! And sometimes you turn your camera around and you have Abraham Lincoln following and you which makes you burst into laughter haphazardly for no reason what so ever! At least that's how it is with me! Just Glorious!

theawesometrex @ Rise of the Reds Version 1.87 Update 2

Are you kidding me! This kind of stuff requires love for your own creation, which in turn gives that creation soul! You can see it in every unit in, every building, in every click that you do in the mod for this game!
The games that EA makes these days...have nothing even resembling this! They are in the truest meaning of the words "A Soulless Corporate Entity". Don't expect anything good to come out of them from this point on!

theawesometrex @ U.S soldiers

Happy to see the M60 back there! If there was a weapon that needed to be there it's that one! Honestly I always thought that San Andreas had a lousy weapon selection! I actually think that they are worse than in Vice City! They just look and sound awful! And the AK and M4 are basically the same weapon, the only difference being that the M4 has a 50 round magazine instead of 30 which makes no sense what so ever!
Also have you changed some of the poses? They aim pose seems less uhh....retarded!

theawesometrex @ GRAND THEFT AUTO SAN ANDREAS REDUX

I love what you've done here! The weapons in this game really needed a lot of work! Like I know this game is from 2004, but even when I played it back then I thought a lot of things were a lot worse than in the previous game Vice City! Sure this one had a lot of upgrades gameplay wise, but even when it came out it just looked atrocious in my opinion. Now watching the recent videos I saw a staggering amount of upgrades have been done! But I did notice that the 9mm pistols (Beretta and Glock) sound exactly the same and the car sounds also haven't changed! Honestly the cars didn't sound too bad in the game itself but some of them do need additions so to speak! Otherwise all I have say or rather ask is when is this gonna be available for download?

Yeah like the other guy said! Sage at this point is a really old engine, it was never meant to run on these kind of modifications and it obviously hasn't been tested on the never systems be that on the software or hardware aspect! Have you tried going to the main folder of the game select properties under the general section you go to to advanced and make sure that all the options there are unselected! It works wonders, it also seems to do it with all sage engine games too! Although I only tried it in my Win7 rig, I'm not sure about 8 or 10!
On a completely different note! Why the **** was your comment down-voted, even though that it is true that often the game runs like complete crap? It honestly just baffles me!
