Topic: "Descent Vignettes" new Descent 1 level set

[Scyphi]

The more I monitor this conversation, the more I begin to realize that I don't think I ever got all the way through Vignettes...

[TechPro]

No, you didn't.   

[-<WillyP>-]

Me neither! 

[Ronin RedFox]

I got to about level 22 and lost all my lives. But it was a really fun set! I should play it again sometime.. 

[Foil]

Last time I played that set, I started on 'Ace' and just rushed through. 

Needless to say, that kind of heedless style only got me to level 15 or so. 

[Darkflamewolf]

its not a set you can breeze through. You have to work to earn your victory.

[Foil]

Ah, but I'm not a patient Descenter. 

I'm a dogfighter who loves to rush-'n-gun.  More fun that way! 

[Kaiaatzl]

Aha!

Now I know how I can beat you in D3!

[Foil]

Sure, it's a weakness... but you still wouldn't beat me in multiplayer. 

[Darkflamewolf]

well I suggest trying the set on a lower skill level, you'll probably have more luck with your fighting style.

[Matthew]

Oh please Foil... I killed you at least once or twice in all the times I've played you

[Sapphirus]

Speaking of Vignettes now: What was your favorite level(s) in the set? Your least favorite? Did it feel like a Descent 1 mission? OR was it something more to you?

Man, those are hard questions...
I would say levels 6 (the submarine level, 'Submerged'), 10 (the one with the sweet exit sequence, feeling like a rollercoaster ride, 'Great Escape'), Secret Level 2 (the Kruel inspired cental reactor core level), and 25 ('Claustraphobia', the level that has a background looking like outdoors but it's acutally a giant massive cave with a Mothership docked within the cave and you can't go outside the grated tube nor the ship) are my faves.

Ah, that's probably why I didn't finish it. Probably got to a certain point and either got stuck, or got frustrated at how battered I was getting towards the end of each level.

Probably should check my save games, probably still have the file lying around somewhere...

[Foil]

Nope.  It's always Ace or Insane for me.  I'll be more patient next time I try that set.

Yes, but Foil sometimes plays under aliases, so you might have killed him a third time and notta knowed it!

 I think he plays as Mega-Thong or something.
