at least thats better than your monthly MM theme ideas...

...or perhaps Lego Maniacs with a mech spin on it or something.

Mech clash? (if you can use the word clash that way)

I think my name suggestions wer awesome >.>

System Destroy sounds more computer oriented. Big Guns... sounds like Big Guns. Battle of Steel and War of the Machines are too generic. Metal Monkey Spankers... I think we have a winnar!


But seriously, I'm looking for something that almost has a 'wtf' quality to it but still fits what's going on in the map. Meh I'll probably just keep Mechnogears.

Mechnotron or mechnogear are the best choices for the name

Why change when what you have is already perfect? It's not always bad to be conservative, and new things are not better by definition

Mercenaries of the Machine?

It is kinda of merc style gameplay right?

If Mercenaries is AoS-style, then I guess. Not sure if this has much to do with hired soldiers, though.

Not really :/

I just couldn't remember how the game played out and was too lazy to go back to the front page.

Battlefield 2142

How is Landscape of Machines?

I think MechnoGears is a perfect name for it...at least until I can see the gameplay for myself.

Also, I was too lazy to read pages 2 through 4, so if you're still looking for people to help out.. I can basically do..anything. I've made a few AoS/DotA maps myself also.

ADDITION:
Metal Monkey Spankers, ftw!

I got more.
And if you need help in any way just pm me Tux I got free time.

I like the War of Machines the best.

Been a while since I've been around here. This looks pretty darn cool. Are you Omega from Blizzforums? Anyway I must share - this map is ~4 years old and it shows *attached*

Yeah I'm Omega. Or was, anyway.

So that's kinda like golems or something? At least the part where you make new units from combinations of others?

w00t!

It's obviously not done, but yes I would say in that sense it is like golems. Just the name + making up your 'mech' from different pieces reminded me of that map when I read your overview. I'm looking forward to seeing the product.

Full Armored Conflict

Anyway, Tux, I still need a general idea of what the game is going to be about (story-wise... even if there is only a tiny bit of it) so I can write events.

Hold up for just a bit longer. I've finished overhauling the mech functions (actually didn't turn out all that different from before except for a new way to handle launchables). All I've got now is to redo some of the menu texts, which is actually going to be a bit of a tedious task, even if it isn't strictly gameplay related.

But now that I think of it, I could go ahead and skip that and get the tester's version ready, and then recreate the thread. In fact, I might as well do that, since that's a fairly low priority task and I've been pushing everything else off for too long already.



Ok, I'll have the new thread ready today or tomorrow. Then I'll be ok for starting testing and getting the events timeline planned and implemented. I might also need help with making a new terrain layout, since I'm beginning to dislike my current one.

Nice....

but I still feel that Full Armored Conflict is a cooler name...

Well it's a bit generic, but not bad. You see lots of maps and games with words Conflict, Armored, Wars, Robots, etc., so I was trying to aim for something a bit different.

Though Mechnogears itself is starting to haunt me as sounding a bit generic in its own right, lately...

ADDITION:
Anyone else like the name Full Armored Conflict?

Can't say I do. Mechnogears sounds much better to my ears. Mechnogears sounds like the name of an awesome techno rock band; Full Armored Conflict sounds like the title of a poorly translated Chinese movie.

lol. I was starting to like it a bit, though. Just it does sound a bit generic.



An awesome techno rock band, eh?

Ayup.

A poorly translated Chinese movie? Like Mechnogears isn't the same?!?!?

I was actually gonna say something about it being generic... but it's extremely difficult to figure out a name that's specific to your game.

Mechanical Units Fighting Each Other in an AotS Styled Battle Where You Can Customize Your Mech Using Multiple Components

Doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. If no one prefers Full Armored Conflict, I'll try thinking of something else.
