Campaign Creations

hey guys, were you aware of this?

http://mods.moddb.com/3704/project-revolution/

cool! SC in 3D!

Uhhm yeah only been aware for years, I was on the team. They have been developing for ages.

I'm a Contributor, I think Lavarinth and mantidz are both Moderators (mantidz might also be a con). I believe Wargiant made their gallery.

In fact, all the names I mentioned, including Maglok, are beta testers (if they wanna be).

Correct, like half the staff here works with PR... And it's actually:

http://www.wc3campaigns.net/revolution/

(You'll notice us in that staff list)

In fact, I recall the thread that spawned the project over at wc3campaigns, way before I was at CC, SA, or even TWC (which is the site that let me know about the .com/.org switch for CC.

Kitol, was the guy i think, who started the whole thing. I think he died at some point, or it was a practical joke, I don't remember.

Ya I'm more then a mod at this point because I am constantly helping out the team with misc things, and they dubbed me the official PR map maker (despite my lack of wc3 mapping experience, lol).

*reads replies*

O_o

indeed....

go to the back of the bus.

Then that wasn't a very good decision... No offense.

BACK OF THE BUS!

Of course, now the project is overshadowed by SC2, and having failed to release before its (inevitable) announcement makes it less desirable, at least to me.  Seems like a ton of hard work has gone into getting PR to its current stage.  The video is interesting, looks like they may be cooking up their own campaign, something they really didn't considering doing at the beginning.

I'd definitely download it to play for the campaign, as its almost like having a new fan-made campaign out there.  But as an author, I wouldn't make maps for it at this point.  Makes me nostalgic for the days when new campaigns were around every corner and you couldn't wait to play em to see what the author had come up with.

Sadly, even working with Project Revolution, I'd have to agree. Although the main highlight is you are playing StarCraft in 3D, not StarCraft II or using the armor/weapons system of Starcraft II with the original StarCraft units. With that noted, it still just seems too late. I have and am playing the beta, and personally, I feel it's lacking something to feel like if I am playing StarCraft, and I can't quite put my finger on it, however for a beta release, it is highly impressive.

Anyone we know making a campaign Lava?  Or was that demo just a demo of PR and not an actual campaign?

That was purely for a demo video, not relative to the campaign they are planning. The team making a story is pretty secluded to themselves as far as I'm aware, or I've blatantly missed it in the forums. Mantidz might know more about this, or WarBringer, or perhaps either are part of it. All I know is Maglok will be doing sounds and I do recall myself doing a pretty awesome Firebat for his testing purposes. However, I believe the campaign was not scheduled to release with the mod, but after the mod.

I haven't heard anything about a campaign, although theres been talk about some cool custom maps.

It was a lame-ass excuse to not finish the project. Even if he really is dead, the distinct lack of people able to say "I can't do this" is staggeringly small.

And beside which, the speed at which they're moving is so stupid slow that I lost all interest in it. Same deal with Rommel's campaign, Hearts of Storms or whatever it's called. It's taken so long because someone is either lazy or too much of a perfectionist that you can't reasonably expect anyone to be excited about it anymore.
