INFO
The content is absolutely bug and crash-free. If you'll encounter a bug/glitch/crash, make sure it appears a second time. If it does, then follow these steps:
  • Restart the game
  • Reinstall DYOM
  • Try to switch the CLEO versions
  • Reinstall the game
  • If you're playing on DYOM 7 or higher, downgrade to DYOM 6.1 (since these missions were created on 6.1)
If you'll still encounter any bugs, then it must be a problem of your PC.

 

If you want to give feedback, please note that I'd like to see a constructive one, with pros and cons. Also, I won't mind a written or video review.

Your logo is too big. Resize it.

And why you don't make the mission using DYOM v7.02 ?

Is this MP were created before v7 release?

Just asking.

I started making it on Summer, that's why.

 

Actually, I'll request another logo. I'll leave that one for now.

So, this created before v7 release right?

Anyway, good luck with this wink.gif

I'll play this later because right now I'm busy making mission for my MP.

Not bad smile.gif Will play this fo' sure. biggrin.gif

 

 

(Я реально русский! cool.gif )

Great that you're Russian too, but since this is an English board, English is the preferable language here.

 

Thanks for your interest.

Chapter 1:

The missions were nice, the story is good. It sometimes feels repetetive. For example, go to Joe, do that, go back to Joe, Mission Passed. I think it would've been better if done with the storyline feature. Cutscenes are great and your grammar is good, few mistakes but nothing worth mentioning. The gameplay is different which is good too.

Rating: 7.5/10

Feedback for next missions is coming soon.

I played the first chapter.

 

To be honest, I don't like the "gang war" theme that much, but these missions were enjoyable. Though the missions were all like "go to X, kill everybody, return" in summary, I believe it's like that because it's the first chapter.

 

Like Zizo said above, it could be much nicer if this was done with storyline feature. But still missions are nice and keeps you going on.

 

I'll give more feedback when I'm done with the other chapters. Nice work. icon14.gif

Played some missions from chapter one. I like gang theme missions but those were too repetitive. Like BDR and Zizo said. Grammar & cutcene were very good,but missions like those,i would perfer in storyline feature. But i can say: it was enjoyable! icon14.gif

 

Goodluck!

I played rest of the mission pack.

 

First of all, I got to say that you have nice designing skills. This mission pack was nice, but it could be much nicer. For example, all the missions are similiar to each other. You get a phone call, you go somewhere, you kill some people and return. After a point it gets very monotonus. There should be some missions that you do different things. A stealth based mission, for instance...

 

Also, your missions weren't challenging. Even the boss fights could be beaten easily. That is a downside for the gameplay.

 

And last, storytelling could be better. Except the missions which we did some stuff for the clan, whole chapters felt like a huge side quest to me. Ofcourse we did everything for the clan but other gangs' work was much more than clan's.

 

All in all, like I said above, you have nice designing skills but you should improve your storytelling and mission variety.

 

I'll give 7/10 for this mission pack. It could be better but, nice work. I was going to give 6/10 but since this is your first mission pack I didn't want your desire to be broken. smile.gif

It's my first finished mission pack, that's why.

  • 1 month later...

A bump, but deserves to be. I finished playing.

 

As a first sentence, I am going to say that this is absolutely one of the best mission packs I have ever played.

 

I love the GTA style in this. I always try to make it simple GTA style myself and this has the very same magic which makes the real GTA's so good. You really perfected the GTA style, kept me excited all the missions. Also, the best way to make me interested in playing a mission pack, is to make it take place in the deserts of Las Venturas. So very good job.

 

Some long drives were frustrating, but only if it happened many times in the row, like the two missions were you had to drive to Bayside, but it was okay.

 

I'm not good at giving long feedbacks, but my rating for this mission pack is 9/10. Great job, SF, I just hope you get on to work on more mission packs smile.gif

 

 

First of all, thank you Notna for your feedback. I didn't expect anyone else to play, comment and play.

 

 

Great job, SF, I just hope you get on to work on more mission packs smile.gif

 

I have an idea in my mind, but it will take too long to make it (if I'll finish it, of course).

 

Anyways, thanks for feedback once again icon14.gif
