Wow, first Eclipse thread with positivity - awesome!
-
So negative, Robin.
I didn't say I've got a tonnes of people working on it - I'm trying to find someone. I've been discussing it with someone and I'm waiting for the green light. In the meantime, I'm doing the pixel art.
Besides, I've simplified it a lot more. I was really just using a sledgehammer to open a bottle.
As for pulling something together, it's an idea. I want people's opinions from day one, because it's not just me who'll be playing this, is it? -
@Robin:
> Bonk is obviously never going to release a game with such an overly complex system, especially as he has the programming ability of a wet possum.
Well, I won't argue with that, but I'm going to hire someone who's actually able to program, though this system will be simplified somewhat.
A game with systems like this would need a team, especially if it were cutom graphics etcetera - it's too much work for someone singular. -
A good source of income is one, along with the right to bestow and revoke titles. Plus a Grand Palace and a Hall of Honour with admins to add new areas. Plus they can send Knights to wars and gain new kingdoms.
Maybe a way to appoint laws might be effective - a double edged blade, as it could put their life in danger. -
Well, peasants don't serve Lords and Ladies, they can only become one after level 15\. Maybe a citizen rank at level 5 would even things out. As for paying taxes, they can farm and rear animals to gain money.
The idea of staking titles seems better than simply fighting.
Would people prefer ways to acquire and sell multiple titles? -
Ancient ;D
I might use the outdoorsy tiles for an idea I had. Muchly thanks. -
Oh wow.
When did you make these? -
Brotherhood of the Blade was good because you could make a chain of attacks that would fill up a bar, then you could perform special and dramatic events.
The combat was interesting as well, because the characters where super overdramatic and the drops levelled as you did. -
You're both good, relax.
I do like it. What will it look like clothed? -
For 6, you can set several sprites for your players to pick on sign-up. It's in classes.ini in your server folder. You just need to click the button that says change sprite.
-
There's no point starting when it's just a thought. I'm gathering peoples ideas and input before I do anything - after all, the people reading it will likely be the people playing it.

I just had a thought about a game, I need people's ideas.
You'd start out as a peasant in a random area and try to survive by farming, killing and trading. Each one of three countries has a feudal system, comprising of a King and/or Queen, Grand Duke and Grand Duchess, Duke and Duchess, Earl and Countess, Baron and Baroness and Knight (Unisex title).
**Peasants** live in towns or villages, which are disciplined by Knights.
**Knights** live in private housing, collect taxes from peasants and are paid for their work by the Baron and Baroness of said town.
**The Baron and Baroness** take 50% of the taxes for themselves and pass the other 50% to the King or Queen. They also live in private mansions.
**Earls and Countesses** are responsible for Villages, larger than towns. They employ Knights to do their work the same as Barons, though they use a maximum of ten, instead of five Knights and live in manors. They keep 75% of taxes.
**Dukes and Duchesses** are responsible for cities, and employ fifteen knights. They live in castles and keep 100% of the taxes their knights collect. They sit in the Hall of Honour with the King and Queen and can raise or lower taxes, though people living there may leave.
**Grand Dukes and Grand Duchesses** live in palaces, and are responsible for their county. A county can contain any number of cities, villages and towns, so they consult with the Dukes, Earls and Barons to discuss running them. They can petition to the Emperor to build a new structure in a city, town or village, which would make peasants move to the place they run.
**The King and Queen** live in Grand Palaces. They can bestow and remove titles (But not Knighthoods) and wage wars against other countries.
If anyone with a title is killed, their title automatically transfers to the killer, along with the land associated with it.
Peasants can do whatever they please, as long as they pay taxes. Taxes are a flat rate of 200 gold per peasant, so if you were a baron with 30 peasants, you would earn 6000 gold (I think), which you would keep 3000 of.
Peasants cannot enter cities. Cities are lived in by Lords and Ladies, which is earned through levelling to level 15\. Lords and Ladies pay a flat rate of 500 gold for taxes.
Taxes are paid once each month. If a peasant fails to pay taxes, he becomes an outcast. Outcasts cannot enter towns, villages or cities. They can only regain their peasant status by paying 300 gold to their Baron or Earl.
Likewise, if a Lord or Lady does not pay their due, they downrank to a peasant until paying 600 gold to the Duchy.
**Titles**
Emperor & Empress (Admins, really)
King and Queen (Three of these)
Grand Duke & Grand Duchess
Duke and Duchess
Earl and Countess
Baron and Baroness
Knight
Lord & Lady
Peasant
Whaddya think?
I just need a programmer :L -
I love how everyone else is avoiding this topic like the plague.
More for us, I guess. -
Well, it would be unfair if no-one else could join in.
-
If it was Chibi, wouldn't it have stubby little arms and a dramatic face, too? Thats how I remember them from old mangas, anyway.
-
I admit it, completely sexual.
-
And we love you too (In a non-sexual way) <3

Only funny the first time, really.

@DrNova:
> They should make an MMO without main har levels, and instead focus on leveling the things thta have meaning, like your various weapon proficiencies and abilities, and in doing so would let you learn new new combat and spell techniques, something like that. Your character would actually literally get better, instead of you just getting a higher number and better EQ really being your main boost
Monster Hunter Freedom :D -

He insinuated that he wants a full one.

@Pixelspore:
> You have to make a pixel art = **actually sprite**, wich includes theme of zombies.
> in short: **Make zombie sprite**.
He wants a full set .__. -
Not just money, but MONEY?
-.-
You can't sue someone for using your sprite in real life. Any amount of money you collected wouldn't really matter anyway, legal costs considered. If you're going to sue a minor you met over the internet - probably internationally, you should save the money for something more worthwile - maybe a frontal lobotomy? -
They're on the downloads page.
MMO Concept, need feedback.

Like I said, it's still a concept, early days. I never said 'ZOMG NEARLY FINISHED LOLOL GONNA BE AWESUM!', just that I was doing some pixel art in preparation for it.
What works for you, Robin, doesn't work for everyone else. I don't think I've seen a single one of your projects with graphics you made yourself, so don't be so quick to jump on other people for it.
