First look at battle island dungeons
 

Comments? Concerns? post them here.

Yes I will be connecting stuff that isn't..adding torchs etc. Sorry these are the training dungeon. One might be used for a new treasure map. Not sure yet.

Looks like so much hard work, generating those levels and everything. How did you do it all by yourself?!

Too cluttered, and too big.

May i remind ppl these are training dungeons.

Its totally detail less. You could say that you will add torches and stuff later, but thats not what I'm talking about. Those either look like tons of stairs, or just some...simple geometric figures.

have you ever used dungeon generator. thats what you get with random.

I only use generators to produce rough shapes of my maps, and I would never use a level generator for a dungeon ^^

Level gen and dungeon gen are two different things...the dungeon maps were made with dungeon gen.

Dungeon generator generates levels. So its a level generator.

true but the actual level generator is more for overworld stuff.

besides not like I couldn't screw around and fix up the maps.

1) When do you plan to add these?

2) What will be in them?

3) Will you be able to pk inside?

I hope he adds them around mid-november, after the Halloween period has like died out. I hope new monsters, as well as a few old monsters are added in these dungeons, mainly new ones though. Pking should be there, it wouldn't make sense if you're in rival kingdoms, you want to become strong enough to defeat members of that kingdom, yet there you are, killing with your enemy because you cannot attack them. Besides, dungeons should be lawless, anything goes, if i had it my way, you should be able to pk ANYONE, even pmoders and your own kingdom members (although excessive attacking/killing of your own kingdom members would prolly be seen as treason, except maybie it was disciplinary).

umm working on them to perfect them so they are of good quality

Could the current battle island (which should be named Kaimetsu Isle) be given detail and that stupid kingdom battle mode removed? It seriously is a let down, and an eyesore...

I am working on the terrain issue and I will get them to redo the pking for battle island...let speed be a factor again.

In my opinion if your running irl and a car passes you it passes you..ya don't keep up with it running.

So like in irl that is how it should be in game.

How are you going to determine how much exp a person ought to be able to obtain by training for, say, an hour in your dungeon. Because from what I know about you, you're just going to pull monster selection and monster placement out of your ass.

keep it up Googi and you can do the projects youself. I see a lot of "complaining" and people giving their opinion but again has any of you really volunteered to help?

In fact I have a plan for the dungeons. I won't say anything right now though because I still have to discuss with stefan and bjorn my idea.

I'm not volunteering to help, I'm just helping. I'm not doing dev work because I've stated that I think these kind of content additions are ineffective. Why would I try to help by doing something I don't think is helpful?

Nonetheless, I certainly have an interest in preventing anything destructive from happening, so if you're too disinterested or incompetent to do important calculations like these, I'm willing to go onto debug before the dungeon is released and do them for you.

Do you, or do you intend to have, an answer to my question in the form of a hard number before the dungeons are released.

Could bmode be enforced on everyone in the Battle island and sub-levels of the battle isle? Why hasn't it been named Kaimetsu Isle yet? And the current portal route to get to the island is kinda... lame in that it had no rp introduction and the spot is in the middle of the kart track.

Googi, why don't you go about a project on your own, or with help if you need it, on something that you think will be helpful?

I plan on adding a building and moving around kart track although thats not the official track.

It's been official for quite some years :noob:

Except that I already am. Did you miss the advertising program thread?

I didn't miss it, i just haven't seen it do anything productive in-game so far. That might be because i don't play as much as i used to nowdays, but it could also be because it just hasn't made an impact.

Or it could be because it hasn't happened yet.

Its not official anymore Majin.

Then could the official one be released? Maybie replace the horse race track with it.

that is the new official one.i had to put off fixing it.

Lol, it's way too wide, but i guess some players could find it difficult since the terrain takes you off-course, but it was way too easy to master. Sharper corners, thiner tracks (not too thin) and it'll be good.

i was thinking of using the walking path around the island as a kart track..what you think?

I think people would pk you when riding a kart.

How about moving to events island?

It's pretty big though, but the corners are nice and it's quite thin.

Events Isle = No PK

I think raven just said that :noob:

I didin't read the the last few pages, but this thread is called "First look at battle island dungeons" so it would be a pretty good guess that it would be about the Battle Island.

Raven spoke to me in-game about moving the track to the event isle walking path. I can see why you immediately thought he meant the Battle i walking path (which surely could not be a track).

-.-

For some reason that made me laiugh.
In all reality it looks good Raven, keep up the good work.

So when should we expect to see these new dungeons and whatever new monster/quests inside them?

Good question! I asked him this today and he said quite a while as he is the only one who works on it, apparently.

Just hope he doesn't throw a paddy and cancel the project.

Hopefully he'll complete them out of spite.

I agree with the name Kaimetsu Isle.

The maps in the first post look like they could use some work on the shaping of things. (ie: 2nd pic, at top, there's too much of a pattern going on there...)
It looks like its headed in the right direction, but there's definitly more work than "torches" and "detail" that needs to be done.
Rearrange and reshape the walls first.
