Target13 Universe

[Target13]

 

 

 

 

 

The Target13 Universe (T13) was created in 2015 after the release of the original version of The Fort and has since included four mission packs and five single missions. The T13U is based on an alternate version of Rockstar's 3D Universe where the second generation GTA games take place. Set primarily in San Andreas, all of GTA San Andreas' events have not occurred or have played out differently. Grand Theft Auto characters do not exist within the T13U.

 

This thread serves primarily as a hub for all T13U related content and information, and will be updated with the release of each new entry. Besides missions, occasionally there will be fictional news articles published from in-universe news outlets to further give an insight into the universe. The official in-game designation of the Target13 Universe is T13U-0.

Legends are a new section of missions set in the Target13 Universe but designed by players such as yourself. Legends allow for the expansion of the T13U and the inclusion of new creative visions. Do not like the direction the designer took? No problem, it is up to you whether Legends are canon or not, and they will not be explicitly mentioned in the main canon series.

Damn it, you bamboozled me. I thought you released Cowboys: The Tale of Betty Shore!

[Giorgia Vinegar]

DAMNNNN!!! Is beautiful bro. I will play all Mission Pack for sure!

Will I get a seal too? Just asking, because you reviewed my mission-pack already

The Battle Never Ends is a good mission-pack but as I have already pointed out in my review for it, there are things it can do better.

Without trying to sound narcissistic: I give a seal of approval to missions/series which I consider on par or better than my own work.

[M.B. Kovas]

I like how you're making this thread interactive in terms of listing awards for other mission projects. This little seal thing you came up with is very simple yet effective. Whatever you do to set new standards in terms of initiative here in the community is always appreciated. If not by others, then by me atleast.

[Martin_Strada]

Actually, if you want. I can record your mission packs. That's the only thing I will do in DYOM for now on.

Seems amazing

I appreciate the offer but I usually prefer commentary instead of a plain walkthrough. Commentaries like AznKei and LnD are not only more fun imo but also more useful because the player is more clear in sharing their experiences. That way I can really see if my mission is too difficult or too easy, or if the cutscenes are too short or vice versa. While as a walkthrough is just a video of something I have played a 100 times before releasing.

They serve different purposes. The walkthrough is more of a tutorial for the mission, if it is a walkthrough of the first mission it can even be a trailer or a snippet of the missionpack. Commentaries can either be for entertainment (Let's Play) or criticism (Review). I prefer gameplay videos of my missions to be a review in all honesty, they are very useful for both the designer and the viewers.

Agents of E.D.E.N: The Peace Circle Review
by
Platinum C.

Agents of E.D.E.N opens like the premier of a televion's latest Drama series, the press, three important public figures, and of course drama.  The atmosphere is very fitting for Pierce and Garland. Pierce whom may seem very familiar from Target13's universe. (Play: The Fort) My first impression is that we'd pick up as one of the panthers as we'd before in Bloody Sunday. I was wrong. Instead we play as tenacious reporter Julie West. With out spoiling much, we're on a mission to build a better reputation, but at what cost?

 

Agents of E.D.E.N takes us on a thrill ride where you'd best be careful not to play it safe. Target13 makes perfect use of DYOM's features and his writing prowess. Expect the unexpected...or go into this with no expectations at all. Enjoy the ride. I did.
5/5 *****

@Target13 I felt that Agents of E.D.E.N: The Peace Circle should have won MOTY, I found it unique and therefore more fun than your other mission Bloody Sunday. Therefore I've nominated it for DYOM Awards.

[Stardust101]

This is the reason I put Target13 in my Respect List. He clearly has a passion for making MPs. He didn't need to create this universe, but his love for storytelling led him to do it, and I truly appreciate the effort.

 

 

Target13, I salute you.

I can't think of kind sentences, but your missions are great! I've played The Fort 2021 and Cowboys: Tale of Betty Shore (in the time of writing this) and they're both awesome. In term of story, I preferred Cowboys, but in term of gameplay, it's clealy The Fort.

[PunishedRaven]

It's honestly been amazing exploring this universe and it's characters. Great stories with attention to details and professional mission design. I have to say it's going in a very interesting direction with the futuristic stuff (not to spoil too much) but I'm excited to see how it develops. I also hope you'll expand on the Cowboys lore a bit more. 

 

props to ya
