alanschu Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 Only if you can mount the horses. I only want mountable horses. I need to be able to mount a horse.
Surreptishus Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 Rubbish. I fully expect to be able to horse a mountain with the option of doing it in turns or in real time.
Pidesco Posted July 18, 2006 Posted July 18, 2006 I would buy out EA, and then destroy it. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans.

Judge Hades Posted July 19, 2006 Author Posted July 19, 2006 Well, the first set of games would have vehicle combat. Imagine your character ona motorcycle speeding down in a urban sprawl being chased by a fire truck filled with machine gun toting boosters with the main fire hose replaced with a flame thrower. The second trilogy would probably be a traditional fantasy CrPG with horses.
metadigital Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I think I played that one in the arcade: one guy on the front of the engine, and one on the ladder. Silly game. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Volourn Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I'd make a game that was fun. Duh... duh.. duh... DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Oerwinde Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 The first game I'd do would be a squad based tactical combat game similar to Fallout Tactics, X-Com, etc. combined with a base building/company running simulation with base building tools similar to the Sims 2 construction tools. You'd start running a mercenary company out of a small apartment but eventually can build into a full scale army and weapons developer. Second game would be an RPG similar in execution to BG2 or Fallout 2, based in the fantasy world of my creation, where Dwarves are the masters of the seas, Magic is strictly regulated by a worldwide group seeking to suppress its strength, which has lead technology to advance in some areas to steampunk levels. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

The whole magic/technology thing worked well in Arcanum, I thought - would you handle it differently? More RPGs on the sea! Fantasy, pirates or futuristic, I don't care.

The whole magic/technology thing worked well in Arcanum, I thought - would you handle it differently? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, Magic is still more prominant than in Arcanum. Its just heavily regulated. You need to be a member of the Spellswords to practice magic, and nearly a 3rd of their ranks are dedicated to hunting down rogue wizards. It used to be a standard fantasy world but a crazy wizard caused an explosion of magical power that wiped out a continent and corrupted half the world, creating the various races. Elves, Dwarves, and Humans were the only races before that. So anyway, they don't want that happening again so we have the crazy magic police. The heavy technology nations are concentrated to one area, and divided between two sides. One believing their technology should benefit their people, and the other believing it should be used to conquer their neighbors. This has limited its spread as the side that wants to conquer wants to keep it to themselves, and the side that is battling them don't want to let others have it for fear of creating allies for the other side. Also, the way I see the steampunk-like tech is more like how it was in Rise of Legends than Arcanum. More of a high-tech rennaisance era rather than a high tech industrial revolution era. I see it more of a magic existing alongside technology, rather than them being opposing forces.

SteveThaiBinh Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 I'd definitely buy it. Seriously, I'm a sucker for anything that's a decent twist on the standard fantasy setting. Sign me up for the crazy magic police (nautical division). It would be fun to have a game with two separate visions of technology, and the resulting two technology sets in competition with each other, and all of that co-existing with magic, too.

Judge Hades Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 I just think that any good post modern cyberpunk game needs a car chase scene and good vehicle combat has been missing in CRPGs.

Judge Hades Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) No. A lot of RPGs have vehicle combat rules. We just need a good translation or good implementation of them in the computer form. Edited July 20, 2006 by Judge Hades
GhostofAnakin Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 Why speculate on something that isn't official, though? "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)
Judge Hades Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 Its not specualtion, because it will never happen. Speculation on something requires that it might happen.
Fenghuang Posted July 20, 2006 Posted July 20, 2006 No. A lot of RPGs have vehicle combat rules.
