Design Your Own Mission - Contest #6

Another DYOM contest! This contest is especially to test your creativity! Some people say that the best missions contain many many objectives. I don't agree. It's way easier to create a great mission with lots of objectives than to create a mission with only a few. So the theme of this contest:

Create a mission with a maximum of 3 objectives: two objectives for cutscenes and one objective for the gameplay.

Remember: I didn't say anything about the numer of non-objective actors, non-objective vehicles, non-objective pickups, non-objective objects... Be creative!

Of course the winner will get a place in the wall of fame. In my opinion, this is the most impressive contest until now. If you win this competition, I really think you are one of the best, perhaps THE best, mission designers of the DYOM community.

DEADLINE: 14 september 2012, 00.00 GMT.

Good luck!!

Competitive contest this time it seems. Nice to see something new: I'll give it a shot for sure.

Still, I don't believe there is a "THE best" designer, but there are "the best" designers in many categories/themes/etc.

Definitely, but I think that this contest tests the two most important skills for a mission designer: knowledge of DYOM and creativity.

This might be a stupid question; But you mean, 2 objectives for cutscenes, are like, 2 cutscene shots? And 1 objective is like the big main objective?(Like Kill Greg. But we cant add Get the car,go to Los santos kill GreG,)

[caio3771]

Good idea, maybe I'll join this.

I got a question, can I make more than 1 mission for this contest?

Exactly...

@caio3771: Every designer can submit one mission for the contest.

So I don't have to post anything, just submit a mission and I already join?

Man, this one is quite tough, lucky that I didn't used to create too many objectives. I guess 1 gameplay is enough, so I must be creative to win this contest right?

Now THIS is challenging

Yes and yes. When you enter a mission, you join this competition. I'm very very interested to see if you guys can make a great mission. I thought about this for a while, because I don't think many objectives is the way to make a great mission. Of course you can also make a large mission with many objectives AND creativity, then the mission is legendary. However, to play a mission like that takes lots of time. So now you have a mission with only 3 objectives, 1 main objective for the gameplay, and 2 cutscenes (because otherwise telling a story is very difficult). A great challenge if you ask me!

So i'm kinda new to this,
do i simply have to post a link for my mission to join? or there's some kind of form i have to use?

[lee_atsugai]

Nevermind this

This time you just have to upload your mission to the DYOM website and place it here. I recommend that you place the description of the mission here also, but it isn't necessary.

[KaRzY6]

Haven't been that active in DYOM for awhile. Can't remember the last time I sat down to make a mission. I might enter a mission if I think of any ideas. This seems to be the most interesting contest so far. This theme will test the best designers.

[xGhostx]

So Dutchy, do we allow to make 2 missions? Because I got 2 ideas in my mind now and can't make it in only 1 mission.

[caio3771]

Alright, I finished my mission for this contest.

http://www.dyom.gtagames.nl/?act=show&id=20592

Description: In this mission, a criminal group wants to release a virus to infect the people, then the people become zombies.
You must steal the antidote and save the world of this big infection.


Hint: To find the location of the antidote, it's simple. Just search for enemies, they are in the way to the antidote.

Hope You like it.

Mission name: Crack palace escape
Mission link: http://dyom.gtagames.nl/?act=show&id=20596
Description: The mission takes time in the middle of the mission "end of the line". You take the role of an anonymous mafia member fearing the death by the hands of CJ, so he tries to escape the place while battling Smoke's guards.
You can change the outcome of the game! As you can kill CJ! and even Tenpenny!

[xGhostx]

Ok look like we got a mission, but next time avoid double-posting, ok? Make use of the edit button.

EDIT: BTW, Dutchy, why don't you make this topic in DYOM Mission forum, it might get more attention there.
