I hope you have more ideas on your map besides a battle system.

Does that mean he will control the other players characters as well (In battles, Player 1 does all of the deciding while Players 2-4 sit and watch their sprites move)?

Lethal of course not...that would be boring and there would be no point in having it be 4 players. The red player controls the party so when they move around the map it is basically just red playar moving but players 2-4 help in battle and quests and puzzles such as riddles and all...

So the party can roam away from Player 1 or are they restricted to a location around him, and wherever he goes they have to go?

Lethal...no there is one unit....lets say a DT controlled by Red...the DT is called the party...Red roams around and does the moving in Party Mode....the other player fight and help him....Just like FF RPGS and all...

Think Faith and Destiny...

m.r.bob: I don't like maps where player one has more things he can do then the other players.

Obviously, the other players would be rather bored being excluded from everything except the battles. I suggest you use a different system.

Turn base itself is risky when implemented into RPG, because it adds to the time needed both to make and play the game. Having someone else control where you go will take away an element usually found in RPGs, freedom. The only person having "fun" will be you when beta testing the map because you will know where to go next, etc. Harsh words, but "good medicines are bitter but will heal the disease". Chinese proverb.

ADD: Are you the same Dragoon-elf who made Truer Diablo 2 RPG(it says Dragon-elf in the link )? That was a very good map.

Turn based combat taking away fun elements in rpgs? So you think someone taking away the ability of freedom downgrades an rpg? I don't think so, it just takes away the independence of the storyline. a True rpg with these concepts would still have a huge fun factor. A True rpg would be something that follows through with a story-line, and sometimes this requires less freedom of roaming on a game(notice all the FF'S restrict how you go about things, many other rpgs do too). If you want an rpg that is not like this, they are called Open Rpgs, and usually don't have a particular story involved in them.

This map sounds like it might be somewhat good, but you really must give alot more detail and information. Such as an overlook of the storyline, ideas on setting, timezone, events going on, what type of viewpoint the story will be in, etc. You didn't really give enough information to criticize it, or even post it in here.

Give us more info please, goodluck on your map.

The system of player 1 controling the party movements is in my Samurai's Destiny RPG as well. Expect that when you enter a town, the players will no longer have to move as a party.

I realize that having 1 person moving would make it more fun for that person...HOWEVER THE WHOLE POINT OF AN RPG WOULD BE TO SEARCH NEW AREAS....So I don't think that I will be the only one having fun on a beta test...to me KNOWING WHERE TO GO....is a lot boringer that Searching new areas....and it could be boring but I am making it funner....Also Turn Base Combat is the type of fighting most people like....And what is Faith and Destiny???

So you have 2 maps in the making? Thats interesting. Good luck with those. They seem to be original and i would like screen shots when the chance is given.

The two parts, colored in red, are in conflict with each other. If you know so much about turn-based combat, how could you not know F & D?

You might not have seen my other question. Were you the one who made Truer Diablo 2?

Wasnt F&D the first map to use that battle system? i dont know but hey try to add a special twist to your map so people dont compare it to F&D add more details besides just the battle system when u talk about the map your making:)

Someone should close the topic, now that dragon-elf is no more.

What happened to him?

ADDITION:
I don't know faith and destiny. Could some one toss me a link plz?

Yea, why did he get banned.

I didn't see him flame or nething....

I think this map will be a great one elf and i forgot what the map was called. Also, i remember you saying you were gonna make an RPG i had been waiting to hear about it luckily i was on right now to check it. 1 more thing, when are we gonna finish that game anyways it was fun and you saved it but we havent played it....
by the way this is UKU-dbzmaster just so you dont freak out lol.
EDIT: hmm i messed up that quote... ah well its been a while since i was on.

I get what you are talking about Elf and it sounds great I guess even though you are not on you still look and all but I think it will be great and I know you can pull it off....I am looking forward to it~

Could a mod come close this topic? Whoever this guy WAS, he IS no longer here at SEN.

Why dont we just stop posting in this thread and let it move on to the bottom of the list....
