Lost Age

warp2ukew · #1 08-15-2002, 06:09 AM

Ideas:

Graal B.G. (Graal Before Graal) is a stone age server. lower class housing will be in caves in the cliffs but richer players will be able to build stone houses and make a town. The stone houses will more or less be similiar to a cave in a cliff except it is seperate from a mountain and can be bigger and nicer. There will be tribes and each tribe will have a chieftan, and if the chieftan wants to he can choose a council of elders. There will be different kinds of weapons the most basic being a club. Weapons will range from clubs to longer sticks, to spears etc.
There will be a system similiar to graal2001's snowball system that will allow the player to pelt another player with stones. there will be wild animals such as wild horses (or their prehistoric counter-parts) that can be tames. I.E. a horse could be used for riding swiftly. Even a giant turtle could be saddles and although it is slow it provides better protection than a horse does. also animals can be killed for their skins and bones and flesh to make weapons etc.. There will also be shamans and a system of prayer and magic. We dont want players to be restricted to predefined classes, rather we want players to be able to do allmost anything they can come up with character wise. So rather then making a player choose a class, all players will start out the same but depending what they do they will change. For instance any player will be able to throw stones if they have stones
but those who practice it and throw stones more will get better at it.

Those are alittle of our ideas I hope we can pick up some staff to help us

Me
Feivel
MajiBOB
Prozac

Thats it so far I need some talented level makers

See the beauty of the server is that you are actually encouraged to act like an uncivilized beast. You can run around beating people with a club and throwing rocks and you wont get looked at as trash by the higher-ups of society. Believe it or not if you can beat the crap out of enough people you will be one of the higher-ups of society. Of course you are discouraged from causing too much trouble within your tribe but when words cant settle something, a smash on the head, and a rock in the eye always works. If the other people in the tribe are smart they will get out of youtr way and let you settle it yourself. Rather then appointing leaders of each tribe I intend on letting nature run its course. i.e. whoever you can beat the crap out of eachother until someone established a firm rule. Now if you want to stay in power you will have to balance it very very carefully,
give too much power to the people in the tribe and you may never get it back, dont give enough and the people will be filled with distrust and soon if you dont have enough people to enforce your rule you will be swept off and thrown into a river (or a gaint pit, a tar pit, a lake, a volcano or any other horrible place) Also you are going to want to stay on good terms with the g-ds (if you dont send me five dollars every week you might mysteriously get consumed by fire) j/k but you are really going to want to have a few shamans to make offerings to the g-ds and what not and if you are lucky the g-ds just might help you when you most need it. (you know like the enemy is about to destroy your whole town and the groud mysteriously opens up and swollows them etc..)
Also you might want to be kind to your animals (feed them etc) because if they are mistreated enough you just might find a gaint horned lizard causing immense damage in the middle of the night.

this is about what.. the 3rd pw you've said you were working on and im sure you'll never finish this one

feivel · #8 08-15-2002, 11:17 AM

I have never worked on a playerworld before.
And maybe alot of people dont get things done because people like you kill their dreams, so go uhhhhh do something, mister!

JrTerrorist · #9 08-15-2002, 11:40 AM

Joker, you were also Owner of Everworld..............

feivel · #10 08-15-2002, 11:54 AM

BTW we didnt promise to finish it did we?
We presented an idea which should be hugely popular among males where anybody can act like a wild animal and be respected for it. I mean come on every male loves to throw rocks and eat huge chunks of meat...

bigkow44 · #11 08-15-2002, 11:59 AM

cool, i get to beat down a dinosaur! or is it more modern than that

nice sig

warp2ukew · #13 08-15-2002, 08:18 PM

Everworld wasnt that great arc.... I did finish it...TWICE. As for my other projects it was too much to handle. Now that I have firm ground and some people (good people in that) helping me we will really get going. MajiBOB said he will try to do the tileset and when thats done ill post it.

Good luck =)

thanks

GodSpeed · #16 08-15-2002, 09:45 PM

Make sure you add witch doctors which get masks and are more respected in tribes... I am full of suggestions, I will talk to you on aim.

Maybe there could be a simple "OGG" Meter, I don't know what it would do but that would be funny

I like the concept!

warp2ukew · #17 08-15-2002, 10:01 PM

=D ya I like this theme too it comes iwth alot of fun and ideas

Cid_Night · #18 08-15-2002, 11:08 PM

sounds like fun to me, pkers'll love it lol

warp2ukew · #19 08-15-2002, 11:40 PM

once they get strong they will

feivel · #20 08-16-2002, 04:30 AM

I knew this idea would be popular

I am glad to be hearing support and ideas from people such as Godspeed and everyone that offers it lol.
I am open to all Ideas and would like to hear them.
I have to speak to Joker and see if we can get a website with a forum up, when that is done there will be an easy way to track progress and ideas and having it so everyone can see the ideas etc. And yes Shamans and witch doctors are part of my idea

what is this OGG meter you are speaking of?
are you sure you dont mean an Ug meter :P

*edit*
concerning the question about beating down dinosaurs...
there will be pre-hisotric themed animals but not what would be called dinosaurs. Expect more along the line of gaint lizard that walk on four legs, gaint alligators, gaint turtles, mammoths, and all sorts of beasts but not dinosaurs (i.e. no torranasaurus rexes etc)

warp2ukew · #21 08-16-2002, 07:40 AM

Ya feivel your away right now though O.o but hopefully we can get forums up and stuff

Oh yeah peoples

GodSpeed might help with some scripting

Spectre1337 · #22 08-16-2002, 08:15 AM

I cant wait to catch me a Torankusaurus!

warp2ukew · #23 08-16-2002, 08:40 AM

You dont really catch them...more like slay them.

Shadow Knight · #24 08-16-2002, 09:22 AM

Ryan: Sounds good.

Torankusu · #25 08-16-2002, 09:23 AM

it's toranasaurus.
usually followed by a (RC) tag.

i.e.
Tyrannasaurus Rex.
Toranasaurus RC.

feivel · #26 08-16-2002, 12:00 PM

Actually it depends on what you our set out to do.
If you are looking for food then you go and kill something,
if you are trying to find an animal to ride for mounted attacks then you could catch one. But doing so wont be so easy plus there will be upkeep so dont expect every newbie out there to be owning and riding a beast.

warp2ukew · #27 08-16-2002, 08:14 PM

gosh! people like our ideas but no1 wants to be staff *cries* oh well our staff can do just fine right now I guess and feivel I need to talk to you on aim so get on! lol

Hey, I'd like to know if I can possibly help out with levels...I don't really need to be a LAT, since I have a job...I just like the idea of the server and I'd like to see it succeed, as well as I'd like to get some practice...
