New Playerworld Project From Scratch...

[MarkB]

Ok here is how is goes...I am thinking of Starting up another PW....After reading unix's post, I decided "Ah hell I'll buy one of them der dem playerworlds"

Here is my dilemna:

I cant make the whole fecking thing by meself, I'll do teh levels...But like I said, I am interested in making one...if you are good enough and are serious about doing it, I will purchase the space for it to go online...I think it would be a good summer project, I'll do some levels but if we get a nice set of staff together I will throwdown the money to make it...what would be really leet? if like Konidias, Loriel, Falados, BirdBird, Zen, and Kaimetsu all got together and made some pwn server...would flourish. No name yet but that can be decided later. Please post if your interested. =)

I don't think Bird posts/plays anymore.

Usually, the response would be to think more about the server before asking around for staff. I'm not exactly sure how to respond though, since you are paying for it and it will go up anyway.


You need to think up at least a skeleton for your server. What theme? What style of game play? What kind of system?

See that is what I am hoping to do when I get some people to do it...a base of staff willing to get a playerworld up...see, then set everyone down in a private aim chat and discuss this...what type of server, what theme, tileset, story line, and what the finished product should look like...I want to get some names first...I am sure I can get Snakeandy, Wan, and Ningnong to do it with me...I just need like GFX people and what not, so is anyone interested? Scripters would be leet.

Hmm, well good luck.

It's just that people usually frown upon joining a server they know little about. Maybe I am wrong on this one.

Thanks for the luck...I know I am going out on a limb here but I think it can be done. Provided the help is there, maybe I will right up a text file with a story line or something... =)

Maybe you could make it like these


Ok when you first connect to the server you start off in barbarian times, You then must form a group of people from diffrent race's maybe like a group of 5 1 carpenter,1 thief,1barbian,1 craftsmen,1 Mage/Magician. You need each one of these to Help build some kind of device that will transport you to the next era in time, Witch could be like Roman Empire Time, Same here you must form another group, Or you can decide to stay here and play in this era, And so and so on all the way up to a period of the future it would be like 5 playerworlds combined each time machine would get harder and more difficult to make so it would keep players occupied.

That would be nice indeed. I am going to BC for the summer (July 7 - August 15) so I won't be able to help much in the summer. But hey, I would help. :o

yea...i found that out...were working something out

I had an idea for one waaaaaaaaaaaaay back, like before the whole NPC Server thing showed up. Then I stopped 'cause I got bored with it, and then dropped the whole thing when I didn't feel like learning to script for the NPC Server.
But anyway, how it worked.
The land was split among the three ruling clans. The Amazons had control of the west-northwest, the Thieves guild controlled the east, and the Mages controlled the south.
Stories of treasure long gone, and ages past filled libraries in each of the major towns. Legends spoke of a portal to a castle which contained vast amounts of treasure, and danger. This portal was sealed by six artifacts which were scattered across the land in caves and elsewhere, some even coming into the possession of the leaders of the clans.
In the center of the land, sits Gate Isle, where the altars for the artifacts wait. Wild monsters roam the lands, and many are out seeking adventure.
Anyway, as far as the way it works and everything. In the beginning, you pick your starting town, Either the Amazons, Thieves, or Mages. There are 6 items you can get from each town, by completing jobs for the leaders there. The limitation is, that you can ONLY get 6 out of the 18, so everyone's character isn't the same. Like the Amazons might give you a stronger blade, but the Mages can give you a talisman that makes your Mana regenerate naturally. Get both, and you'll be limited to only 4 other items. Fullhearts will be found in other ways, such as exploring caves, or ancient ruins of the former ages, helping townspeople with things, etc. Anyway, just an idea for you. ^.^;

Your sig doesn't work :grin:

That reminds me of my PW Project, Rising Empires. You pick your class, and everyone starts on the same place. You can join a kingdom. When the PW's new it's just barbarian tribes. These tribes can "evolute" and get into new ages. You could say Empire Earth with Graal

Aslong as i will see good improve ments of the server im intrested yes?

ah it seems the GST can work on PWs, well Angel said you could, and shes staff on Era now =)

[Thought]

Can't anybody come up with something more unique?

Anyway, MarkB -- i'm interested myself, but i'd rather not discuss it here. Could you PM me your AIM screenname, it's not listed in your profile.

[edit]
Also: Aren't you working on a server called Archaic or something like that?

And, why is this in Graal level editing?
[/edit]

[edit2]
Argh, that irritates me when I don't notice that it's a week old, hah.

OMG I don't think that could ever happen one person would make a NPC then the others would just make it better, then they would fight bout it and the other one would make a better one then a better one then a better one till they had a NPC that did everything.... The perfect AI and it would enslave us all.... OMFG the end NOOOOO!!!!
