The event decks are perfect for what is called "Kitchen Table Magic" aka casual magic.
They have good power level and teach good synergy. They are a bit underwhelming for "Friday Night Magic Tournaments" and other competitive play however.
Id be happy to spruce whatever you choose up a bit.
If you are going for UW you are going to need good color fixing lands. Lands are everything. You need consistant lands that add U or W so that you can get your colors effectively. Investing in some good lands is always a good idea because youll use them in every deck you build of that color for awhile.
Pick up cheap ones: Flood Plain, Azorious Chancery.
Bit more Expensive: Flooded Strand, Hallowed Fountain, Celestial Colonnade. -
I used to play magic competitively. Won over 6000 dollars in scholarship when i was 17\. If you have any questsions on magic feel free to ask. I still play online. I play the modern format the most,
Ive seen many other games come and go, Magic is the only one with any real shelflife if you want to invest $ in cards.
Others Ive Played:
WoW TCG
Middle Earth CCG
Lord of the Rings TCG
Star Wars CCG
Inuyasha TCG
Legend of the 5 Rings
Spoils Tournament CCG
Yu Yu Hakusho TCG
Duel Masters
Megaman Battle Network TCG
Yu-Gi-Oh
Star Trek CCG
Kaijudo
Wars CCG
Game of Thrones CCG (Back before the shows when it was still a CCG)
Dune TCG
Austin Powers CCG
Magic is the most widely played and your cards will retain the most value

Custom coding features go a long way to making a game unique and good. **_But any of these eclipse games will fail no matter how many custom features they are packed with, if they don't apply proper game design, the non-coding kind of game design_**_._ (A good book on game design on designing virtual worlds is[http://books.google.com/books/about/Designing_Virtual_Worlds.html?id=_UFdly7N3PgC](http://books.google.com/books/about/Designing_Virtual_Worlds.html?id=_UFdly7N3PgC). This book contains no coding advice and strictly talks about building a virtual world from a game design aspect.
Eclipse Origins 4.0 has the ability to apply these (non coding) game design principles in a manner that makes a good game. It is rarely done and hard to accomplish because you have to understand WHY people playing these small time tiny eclispe games. Once you understand that you can build your world into some place that people want to hang out in. The misconception is that it is impossible without custom coding to the eclipse engine. It is indeed possible just a very advanced task to accomplish.
Not actually disagreeing with anyone just pointing out how important non coding game design is when making virtual worlds! :)
I like the anime SAO! Good Luck! -
Great tracks! This will help many! Thanks again! I will add one or two songs to Arakdia and let you know!

Rob Janes this is great :) I really do like this style for 2d mmorpgs. If you need any help with paperdoll edits ect. feel free to PM me.

Do your furniture items have correct GFX, put into your furniture folder as .pngs?
-
Party dungeons and player housing are already inside EO 4.0, the other features are not.
I have just spoken with JCsnider this morning and he said there will be at least one more update to EO4 alongside thier work to EO5.
EO5 is going to be multi platform with LUA scripting so you can make these edits. EO5 wont be out for a bit but they are still working on it regardless of the wait time.
Other eclipse engines are open source so you can make the edits yourself, however you will need a programmer if you are not one -
The furniture item has to be in your inventory drag it from there, and you have to own the house in game. You do those 2 things?
-
So I liked alot of what I saw, eveything felt really smooth.
One of the main things I liked was the day and night system. The placement of the lantern glows ect. meshed well with the gfx and gave the night it's own distinctive feel without feeling too awkward.
The characters move a bit slow maybe and maybe some more monster variation, but other then that it was awesome! Keep it up! It is good to have fellow game developers that make quality games around -
I am online right now. Looking good :) Will stay on for the rest of the afternoon
Also this music is really relaxing hahaha. -
Diggin the screenshots, looking forward to this!
-
Good work! keep it up!
Customization is easier with this style, good for smaller games. I dig this style -
