Version 1.4 is out!

After spending roughly 6 hours on the map today doing this update I decided to go ahead and submit it before I leave for vacation. The features in this update vastly improve gameplay and fixes several long standing bugs.

Changes in this version:

• Complete Rebalancing of Items
• Lore on Most Items
• Bosses improved for a better experience (still space out occasionally. A snapshot bug)
• Added Guardians into the map. (Have fun)
• Added a skip After Show button if you want to skip it.
• Customized the mobs in Episode 3 to look like scientists.
• Redstone fixes and optimizations
• Aesthetics added
• Much more...

Thank you for continuing to support Exodus! Enjoy the new update. It changes the whole experience! Don't forget to leave a comment to support the map!

Cleaned up the main post a bit. Made it look a bit nicer and fixed a few spelling mistakes. Also organized the videos now so that you can watch the different versions of the map if you want.

Version 1.4 is out! Be sure to give a try and comment/give me feedback! I want to improve this map as much as possible and make season 2 even better than the first!

Thanks again!

Episode 2 is (finally) here! Video is still processing (Just uploaded it). Loving the map and can't wait for season two.

Just watched it and y'all did great. The slider puzzle was bugged for some reason. There was a second hopper but it got replaced by ice when the "Clear the field" button was pressed. I'm going to fix this and also try and work out a way to make it so the snowballs don't get stuck. This will be a quick patch for the 1.4 update. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I'm surprised no one else has said anything about it.

Looking forward to the rest of the series!

(I'll also add your head next time I work on season 2)

Well, I just checked it out and everything seems to be working fine for that puzzle. Not sure what happened in your playthrough but it seems that one of the command blocks was corrupted or something. Hopefully no one else has this issue.

Version 1.4 should have the issue fixed. Might release a very, very small update before I leave for vacation tomorrow. Just a few redstone tweaks and tiny bit of item balancing.

Thanks everyone for all of the downloads! We already have 50 just from today! That's almost a new record! (current record for downloads is 74 in one day!) Feedback is greatly appreciated!

Awesome, we'll upgrade to 1.4 for the next episode. Thanks for the feedback!Just a quick thing, I'm going to change my username (Once 1.8 comes out) to BobJonesies. Don't know if that will mess my head up.

It won't mess anything up. I've already added your head into season 2.




VERSION 1.4.1 is out!

This update just fixes a few minor bugs and balances a few items a bit more. I also removed a few things that I decided weren't necessary.

Changes:

• Removed XP bottles from all chests.
• Removed "Cheats" Book
• Fixed redstone bugs for the sewers and puzzles.
• Fixed zombies in the puzzles area.
• Finally have the render issue fixed for the head of the final boss! (This is due to the snapshot update)
• Tweaked Intro text at beginning of map.
• A few things here and there.

Thanks for supporting Exodus everyone! Be sure to comment and give me feedback on your experience. If you come across any bugs let me know!

Leaving for a week long vacation today. Won't have much time to work on the map or manage this post. Be sure to help support the topic by commenting in the comments below. I love hearing feedback, good or bad. Great things are coming in the sequel that will put the first map to shame!

Have fun, and enjoy the apocalypse of Exodus Season 1!

This is your host, R3D_K1D, signing off. (Temporarily)

Know you won't see this, but I've filmed the final episode and it's uploading now. Great finale. Review is in the video. (Also, a few questions for you)

Nice

K, know you won't see this. But it's finally up. (Took forever to process)

Back from vacation! Now I can continue work on Season 2! Thank you everyone who commented/downloaded the map while I was gone! It truly means a lot! Over the past week I have had time to think about the plot and how Exodus Season 2 will end. If I can do what I want, the whole adventure will be magnificent.

Now to answer your questions/replys:

Quote from Purzel2205

Because of the newest snapshot the sewers are now way more difficult (All these Guardians :S)

I was hoping they would be! I felt that the sewers were to easy before. I figured that the guardians would be a perfect adversary for the sewer area.

Thanks for the playthrough! I'll watch it later today and answer whatever questions you ask me!

Quote from eltrollino

great map, one question: keepinventory has to been on?. thanks

Yes. Keep Inventory is on by default. However if you really want to change it, alter the gamerule to false after selecting singleplayer or multiplayer. I would not recommend doing this because if you die, (And you will), zombies will equip your gear and become extremely overpowered. Thanks for playing!




Thanks everyone for playing and keeping the post alive while I was gone for the past week. Great things are coming in season 2! Depending on how much work I get done this week, I may release 1 or 2 screenshots of the second season!

Thanks again!

Finished watching your video. I congratulate you on making it to the end. I have just sent you and RangerGames a private message answering your questions and giving you both feedback. Good look on your future videos!

Working on the map today. Decided to mess around with some ideas for a possible boss. What do you think of this guy?



This creature is fast and packs a powerful bite. However its aggro range is relatively small. So far this is the first successful custom boss/horror creature I've made for Season 2.

That looks very cool

Quote from Mastergabe2000

That looks very cool

Thanks! The above picture doesn't really give it justice. Even in broad daylight, this thing is scary. It is very similar to a swarm of "creatures" that rip people apart. Just messing around with it, I was scared thinking about the horrors, players will face when they encounter them.

I've decided this is not a boss mob and is just one of the custom monsters you will face fairly early in the map. Hopefully I can give it custom sounds too. I will also mess around with the particles some more and try and make it even more menacing.

Very well done. Especially if you were playing it on the newest version. Some bits (like the sewers) are much harder now in the 1.4.1 version.

Quote from Fox9933

I like it. Maybe it doesn't fit the space theme though?

I been watching a few videos of Dragnoz lately and also believe that his system for skeletons equipping swords at melee would work great in your maps. ()

I would also quite like to beta-test season 2, if I can. (I got a lot of time so no worries)

Thanks! At first glance and looking at the mostly blank super-flat in the background, it does look out of place. However, this creature will fit nicely into the space theme and plays a vital part in the storyline. I am beginning on the area in which you first encounter it later today.

I just watched that video you linked. I love that idea and I will definitely add that in. That is an excellent idea. Thank you for mentioning this! It will undoubtedly improve gameplay.

The beta test won't be ready for a while now. Once I complete episode 2, I may release a small beta test. Not sure yet. When it is ready I will make a post about it.

Beginning work on Episode 2 for season 2 later today. If what I have in mind works, the first sequence of horror should make players scared and frantic when they see the beast that is hunting them. Combined with low gravity and underwater combat it should result in an interesting turn of events.
