I didn't mean actually playing solo, I meant that he/she doesn't have to wait for the team to come along to get somewhere or kill some things. If he/she can switch to a kerri, the player can go off on a seperate route or something. I still think medic as a wizard type that eventually can buy a gun to become kerri is best idea.

Spamming about how much I spam isn't helping the problem at all.

Fortune,
Please stop... I do not want you to get suspended...

Faz,
We haven't decided really yet... I haven't seen torrasque in a while and I
really don't know how the terrain is coming... When i see him or he can post here about his opinions

Im here all right, but ive been really sick lately, its killing me, but im trying to finish enough to post about 4 secreenshots on friday. I also hate to say it, but i agree with odd. The Carachter class system is mostly gonna be him...i also am working on a way to save space by using deathcounts and a grid to make every building be in the same place, but with a different layout avery time.

Untill i don't feel liek

~Torr

Yeh i know how it feels, having something really cool to do, then getting sick. and im really looking forward to those screenshots;)

*For the medic thing.. maybe you could have an area (like items area) where there is a beacon. now the medic say, is a ghost or something i dont know. but then at the beacon area, you choose a beacon to heal or do bad spells or something. moving to heal will create a medic in the ghosts position.. i dont know exactly just thought that would be interesting idea for you to use..

If you had enough sense to notice, you would see that I mention your lack of thought in your posts along with another topic. Use this for an example. You however simply say whatever the hell you want, regardless of its results.


This is what I was talking about. Give the medic spells, and then allow it to switch to and fro a Kerrigan.

I'm not sure, but are you going to have one player be a defiler that uses dark swarm, in addition to characters that can attack normally? I had thought that this would definitely be a cool addition as a character class to any map, but balancing it would certainly be challenging. I think that the best way would be to have the other characters have high damage but low life, allowing them to kill enemies equally as fast. Abilities could definitely be a huge plus in such a scenario.

www.com.au,
I will think about that... Me and torr will probably find a way to make you all happy...

Faz,
The diffler would be a bad idea... We're trying to have the humans actualy
be humans, lol... So the diffler is out...
I think 5 classes is enough and shall add a cool twist into the gameplay

Well it's looking better than most Damned kind Map... Hope you will finish it.
I really love this thread, you have a really nice and well done page presentation.

It's like a "Kill Them All" map?

Make sure theres a scene that focuses on teh haxor...XD cuz thatd be my char...Dont make it boring...so all he does is walk up to a door and it goes...-=Hacking 1%=- Cuz thats not how it happends...have somthin in depth for EACH char plz

Othr than that...Sounds pretty fun *waits for screen shots*

Don't worry about the hacker. Taking from puni's idea.. im thinking of a keycode type puzzle for the hacker to get inside

Are you talking about an idea sort of like S.W.A.T. possibly? I don't understand.

Ya torrasque i was thinking of the same thing...
Mabe like a dropship system where you have to unload units in the right order
and it will give you hints but you will have to figure out the puzzle

This is not a kill them all map...
It is more of a survive as long as you can while
doing quests and geting certain items

Thank you for all the positive feedback

This is really sounding good Odd. I can't wait to see some screenshots and whatnot. So will your characters have different names or are they just weapon named?

They will be weaponed named because I'm sure no one
wants to have 3 "chris" Playing the game...

W00T, it;s the weekend and I FEEL GREAT. That means screenshots at about 6:00 P.m. My time [Mountain]

So... I guess I'll just be on at 8:00 tonite to post them on the front page
Send them to me In a PM and I will post...

I hope there good or your fired
jk

Well, well well... its only 4:49 here









Hereis where you will find the names to edit your post odd...

I will add them into the first post tommarow when i have time...
For now good bye It is 7:30 here and i have
other things to do

OK, New idea... COMING THROUGH.

I am starting to think that not all 5 players are needed to play this game. We could simply just set it so that if the hacker isnt there, we can makeit so that a player has the hackers BASIC abillities. while doing that this means that the hacker could unlock secret Extras, for better weapons or more money etc.etc... i just came up with the hackers stuff anyway.

Torr you don't listen... I said at begining you chose your class...
So an average Party should have
1 Medic
1 Hacker
1 Sniper/Pyro
2 Gunner

You can always switch it up though...
This makes it ALWAYS Different and people will have to find
the best stratagies and unit combinations to beat the map

PS: The terrain could be better... make it look like NewYork...
Also you said something about the park yesterday why do
we need a park? Id rather just have buildings that you go inside...
The buildings are big... We will run out of room really fast...
I can make some quick terrain and show you what I mean...

No, you don't understand, what im talking about is that we CANT reqiure that someone have a certain unit...

Make me an example, i dont understand watch you mean by New York...

Having characters in a game that are somewhat "Necessary" is a good idea. This way noobs will never beat your map, and they will just leave. If you have the Hacker able to so say, open doors 10x faster then any other Player, then he's a "Favorable" party Player. And of course not having him makes other areas unavailable and what not. So he wouldn't be "Required" but without him you'd probably lose anyway, from not having enough Neccessary Items/ Ammo/ etc.

So you don't really come out and say what units you need, you just make each different Player Extremely good at this or that, and people can find the Best combinations of units.(As Oddangel said) I think this would make your game very good.

And don't just make the Hacker be that Type of Player, do stuff like that for at least 3 of the units(So far it looks like Medic and Hacker are "Gameplay Required" Favorites) Try to make 1 more player be somewhat necessary. That'd make the Map for Pros only

I fail to see how by forcing the players to have certain units makes the game "Pro's only." In my opinion this makes the game more favorable to newbs who just get a full house and race through everything. Foreknowledge of what is required does not make you a good player; it makes you an experienced player. The two are much distinquished, especially in the case of RPG's. A good player can beat a fair map the first time. An experienced player will always be able to beat the map once he/she learns the tricks required to win.

Ill say this 1 last time... We are not FORCING the players to be certain units... They chose who they want to be...
Sometimes it is better to have a sniper if you dont want to get in close and would rather stay back and kill... Mabe your team needs a medic... Mabe you like to use spells and abilites.

You Chose

Every class will have special places that only they can reach... For example the hacker can open doors... The medic can heal poison and can walk through gas because of the gasmask they wear. The sniper can fire from long distances and doesn't sue as much ammo...
Every class will have their own unique ups and downs

I hope this clarifys it...
