~~ World War II : Mini Series ~~

This is the new World War II Mini Series I'm going to create.
It Will be set during World War II (Obviously) It will not be historical. I'm
going to make up a town in which the Allies must take. It will be different
every time you play it. Where the artillary hits will be random, what type
of German Divisions are there will be different. How many and where they
are will be different. Basicly, you won't be able to use the same tactics
every time, it will get you killed. Also,the place where the allies will attack
will be different, so if the allies are attacking the center, and the germans
attack from the sides and hit the center, your in for either a A)massacre
or B)REALLY hard fight!


-- Features --

`Realistic, once you die, you DO NOT come back!
`There will be computer players helping the players and attacking them.
`You can change weapons, you can pickup other weapons.
`Different events, such as a weapons drop-off, reinforcements for either side, etc.
`MUCH MORE!

Please post your suggestions!

Sounds like a fun map. How long will take you to finsih it?

Are you a whole army or just 1 player hero kinda thing? If one player could add ammo to rifle and stuff. Maybe abandoned buildings you can enter and take sniping points? Or have repair tanks broken down in streets and drive them i guess. (Broken down tanks owned by P12) uh, Heal allied players on field? using medical kits and stuff. Just stuff like this.

Great suggestions moogle! smile.gif

The computers are the armies, you are just 1 player. You will be able to heal allied soldiers with MedKits. There will be ammo that you'll need or else your screwed lol. I think i'll use your tank suggestion. Also goes for jeeps. Maybe I'll add in a Tank Factory, where empty Panzers await the allies wink.gif and I don't know how ill use the enter house and snipe thing... Since bunkers are already in use.
I thought about entering houses and stuff, like in Call of duty.

No clue on how long though, I will work on it whenever I can.

OFF TOPIC: Whats the little bar below our names with the green in it?

I think new option yoshi added in noclue what is for.

Also dont forget land mines around places, flyby bombings, call in airsupport. Long range cannon fire support, even Gunboat supports and another stuff do wif war lots of action n blood.

Land mines are in, no fly-bys... can't be way to easy to die lol u can only die once. Im trying to make this realistic, such as where the soldiers can hold off for a bit and such. As in the civil war maps, strategy is a must.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Moogle on 2004-09-12 at 01:02:19
Ambush points, Choke points. Ammo Depots. try add points where u can take over. Like taking over enemy fuel areas - increase your tank input n taking ammo depot increase units and more ammo goes to troops. Taking ova hosptial just gives your men better chance heal 100% or something.

Edit: with the flybys thinking more setting units to 2% hp from it.

So far I have the forest you start in. At the beginning you are given a short report from your CO (Commanding Officer) Tells you the objectives. Then theres the "Wall" Its cliffs with only 2 entrances, also a hidden entrance through a windmill. One entrance is through a ravine which is covered by 1 nest of riflemen and 2 bunkers on the cliffs. The other entrance is through the main gate. It has a road going to it so its in the open. More of a suicide run. Im thinking of using the sniping trick that Psi is using in his Generals map.

ADDITION: the fly-bys setting to 5% would be good smile.gif also i will make it so u can take over the hospital and heal free there. and ambush and chokes already imputted by thx for suggestion wink.gif

ooo i almost spammed but it added it as an addition! smile.gif thx Yoshi!

Well so far, I have:

Regular siege tank [German Panzer]
Hero siege Tank [Allied (forgot name) Tank]
Regular ghost [Soldier - Riflemen] (For both sides)
Hero Ghost [Allied Soldier - Sniper] (only the players can get this unit, with it you get a obs to aim with and after 5 seconds it shoots and kills w/e non armored unit under it)
regular Marine [Soldier - Machine Gun]
Hero Marine [Allied Soldier - Thompson]
regular vulture [Abandoned Car] (For use to hide behind)
hero vulture [Jeep - Mine to Exit]

Didnt know army used mp5? thought more like Aug's/M16/M14 Standard weapons.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kashmir on 2004-09-12 at 01:21:58
Did you miss the WW2 part? M16 werent invented yet. lol Though I dunno is MP5 was either lol So i'll change it to a Thompson

also... goliaths... nah. this is a 192x192 map. just 1 town with strategic points.

Also this will be a low dmg map.

Such as like Marines have 10 life, mines do 2 dmg, enemy marines do like 1 dmg total. Tanks do 4, riflemen do 1 but have more range. snipers kill on the spot but have lower life like 5 hp.

Oh yea, m16 not out lol meh bad. K, M14 Rifle or something i think was. Are you adding Motar's?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kashmir on 2004-09-12 at 01:35:48
mortars? no, artillary yes lol. Sieged tanks owned by the neutral computer so you have to manually attack them. once they are dead, the explosions near the cliffs stop. You'll know where the explosion will be next though lol. I have a fast air unit run from the artillary to the xplosion point then explodes, so you can dodge.

Cool, so its just different points were its firing? why not have large location across a area for each tank and location roam about it locking on different burrowed units. May work i dunno. Sounds like this map going be big hit ^_^

Thx smile.gif It will be a series, different towns, different strategies, etc. Im going to listen to music and drink up my last can of coke, then I have to get some sleep so i'd say about another 20 minutes of working on the map sad.gif

You should make it so when you die it creates a crystal, and an ally must touch it bc when you where hit, you weren't killed but injured. That way you stay in the game. And it requires teamwork.

Me thinks you got those out of Call of Duty, they were not the only weapons, you can find some more through searching Internet for WW2 Weapons of War and such, and huge lists appear! If you want it correct.

Looks interesting, try not to make it too boring, even with changes in each map, if you basically just have to do this that and the other it lacks interest for large majorities!

Sounds like " Barbarossa " war map. Where you run up to crystal then you respawn as civilian back at hq, that also had lives. =/

No I haven't played that game yet. I got those names from the game called "Medal of Honer" "Front Line" I always wanted to play Call of duty. Those weapon names are all the names I remember from WW2.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Kashmir on 2004-09-12 at 10:39:55
Thx for feed back, there will only be a few of those guns in this map, only one town. In call of duty you were ill equipped to take the first town lol. also, i figured out the name of the allied tank.. forgot it for a few there. its Allied Sherman! I might be able to do the crystal thing... i'll make it where you need a medpack and the player that died has a certain amount of time to be respawned or they fully die. Only the players can get these weapons, the computers attacking each other will have generic weapons. I.E. "Soldier [Riflemen]" "Soldier [Machine-Gun]"
