It was (and still is) a little overwhelming at first but I am now able to use SDK comfortably. I think that for my first map I will devote it to our group. That's right, a map built like Battle Field. I already have a few ideas on the game play such as how we can kill each other.

Some of my ideas include but are not limited to:

-pressing buttons that will make parasites fall

-doors that you can bust down

-Manually operated sentry guns

-pits that could be fallen into

-mines already laid out on the map

There are a lot of things to consider, such as were I'm going to place weapons, lights and objectives.

If you have any ideas, any at all. I want to hear them. Tell me if there is anything cool that you would like to see from an PvP Alien Swarm map.

~~~~~~~~~~~Discuss~~~~~~~~~~~

Our group activity and participation level is just... sad. I post an anouncement asking for feedback and I even have to tell people to check on the page to reply. All I am asking is to check on the group page every 1-3 days to see if there are any updates when you are out. If we are going to build a better group we need more activity within the group and just simply more people. So right now go check out the anouncements of the group and look at everyone of them; of course reply to the ones that I ask you to. Let's try to bring the group activity up a bit.

P.S: Try to remind any of your friends that are in this group, I just don't have time to do it all.

So I've discussed a bit of this with Gucci, I don't know when we should set the event times to and that is where you guys come in and tell me when you have the most time or when you want to play PvP. I was thinking Fridays would be nice (since I have time :P), but I assume everyone here is off on Friday nights. The bad thing is (maybe good) is that our group members are spread across the globe, so my Friday night wouldn't neccesarily be your Friday night; that means we might need another event sometime else or when it is your Friday night (Here we go time zone mind ♥♥♥♥).

Basically, let me know where you live (don't put this if you don't feel comfortable), your time zone, when you are avaliable to do PvP events, and any other comments or suggestions in your post.

We only have 17 people in this group currently. I understand that this is a priavte group, but you can at least invite someone on your friends list; one or two wouldn't hurt. Before you go off mashing your invites, the people that you add must play Alien Swarm, obviously. They must be active at least once or twice a week in playing Alien Swarm, yes, ask them this (I don't want ghosts taking up space in our group). Lastly I don't want haters in our group, I don't see why you were friends with them in the first place, but I don't care, just don't invite them.

Oh, I forgot to mention that you have to ask either Gucci or I to invite the person, just message us when we are on or post the link on our profiles.

I need 3 people that would be dedicated to doing the Alien Swarm "Outstanding Execution" achievement, which is "Complete a campaign on Normal difficulty or harder without any marines dying." I don't know if this must be on the Jacob's Rest Campaign but I assume so. Comment on the announcement if you are interested.

So I did this achievement with Scrambles, Hothr. We did everything that we were suppose to and still didn't get the achievement for some reason... I don't know why, if anyone understands any specifics please comment.
