Why Not Make,,, An Vast Mas Multiplayer Online First Person Shooter. As in, Having worlds that have bases and towns and such. I dont have all the ideas, but I think it would be a blast.

Such like, Bf2 stats with upgrades, but on a higher scale and (not bf2 crappiness lol). But do you get my jist?

Here is an example, it might sound dumb, but.

Have any of you seen that show Stargate sg1? Well in that show SG1 Goes off worl thru the Portal thing to other planets and they do FPS stuff. I think having a game like Stargate would be sweet, BUt only if it was made right. Im not saying make a STARGATE game, Just somthing that has that effect.

Everyone Feel Free to Commit.

 

[blackflag486]

also i realize hl2 engine isnt made for this. Just a Speculation

 

[Danimal]

Source World.

 

[armanguy]

yeah what happened to that? oh wait i know its an hl2 mod it got cancelled just like the othere 1,000,000 hl2 mods

 

[blackflag486]

I dont understand??? What is this Source World? What was that game about?

No one has any ideas or imformation about a Vast Multiplayer Online Game? IT WOULD BE BIG TIME NO DOUBT! You think about the attention this would get.

LIVE MMOFPS?? Connect, and play with Your own Clans or Cities and Fight Against one another for Domination over Cities and Planets. That would be Most Excellent and Amazing to play. (NONE OF THIS CRAPPY STARWARS GALEXIES STUFF) That was a good idea, But they made it to easy, with POINT and Click crap. Actuall Game play and real time effectivness.


Please respond with some help or speculations.

What happens when you die in the .2 seconds it takes to kill someone?

Respawn back home and travel another hour to recover your gun?

Firstly calm down... You don't always have to use Caps...

There are a few MMOFPS being made at the moment, some using Source as their game engine. As to making of MMOFPS mod, that would be a largely difficult task, better left to Game Devs. Though i'm not sure about it but i have heard something about Source World being moved to UT or something...

Well, he posted this in the Mod forum... so I think he's talking about a Source based MMOFPS.

 

[blackflag486]

Well, Its cause I like the Source Engine. It could be for any game, or even a whole new engine. This is just an idea. If you die, You have medics and revives, You could respawn where you died, or back at your base, Base would be quicker and same place longer, Or if there is some sort of healing thing, use that. Im just giving an idea, Im not planning a game. But think about it, City battles for other cities, in real live FPS but in an RPG theme. Have the aspects of an RPG with the Game play of an FPS. Im not saying all of the RPG aspects, just a few. Like you could get your own weapons, and sense its FPS, it takes real skill to use most of these items. Have real in world CPUs to fight and other things. Be what you want to be. Fight with guns and such. I dont know. Just point me in the right direction

By the way, WWIIOnline.

 

[armanguy]

hes talking about games using the source engine you tarts!

 

[Yuri]

Well, maybe the game shouldn't use the Source engine because the Source engine wasn't really designed for mass multiplayer online gameplay. :|

Maybe it should use one of the many other engines out there that are specifically designed for such a thing. :|

YAY!

But jes, I am a tad on edge today

 

[WaterMelon34]

you just need a cookie.

 

[Lucid]

A bear hug can give you bear powers!
Everyone wants bear powers! But it is unacquirable, as bears are not friendly.

armanguy, you have grown so much more charismatic than the last time I'd noticed your presence. Cheers to that! :cheers:

Now you just have to work on your typing skills.

I had the idea of an FPSRPGRTS. There'd be a huge ass world where players build things, such as palaces with body guards, commercial buildings to bring in money and entire citys. (all buildings have an interior which people could access/sneak into.)

It'd work like this, the first group of people to get a kill of someone would be team leaders which means they are the ones who get to build citys and stuff and make a profit out of the citys which they can use to hire citizens (going about there lives, making there own money by a certain profession which they get good at by leveling up to become better at, these would be gamers not NPC's) to fight and destroy other city's for them or hire them as assasins or spy's or as city guards.

I know such a game won't be made in my lifetime and probably dosen't make sense to most people but it'd be eternal bliss for me and if someone does make this game in my life time, I'll be the first to buy it. Imagine how fun the assasin part would be, faking that your a worker for a team leader to assainate him.

Why did I post this? This just reminded me of it and I wanted to share my idea.

lol yeah it was really late and i was tired. So ill try to type properly for now on

 

[SimonomiS]

Well, Its cause I like the Source Engine.

For what reasons?

 

[blackflag486]

cause i like the game play of the source engine. Face it Battlefield2 playability of the First Person Blows brains. But In source the movments are exact and precise. Well They are really close.. Just DO IT! EVERYBODY GET DOWN!

Just someone please make a MMO CS! WITH CARS AND PLANES AND HELICOPTERS! OOOOO YEAH!! + Assasins and Things of that such like that one guy typed above us theSteven. It sounds awesome. If it had GOOD FPS like CS and an MMO!? OO MY DEAR OWNAGE! it would be fantastically grand.

[ComradeBadger]

It's not going to happen. Sorry.

 

[blackflag486]

why, cause you dont wanna make a fourtune, everyone just beats around the bush with these cheap pousur games, JUST DO IT!

 

[pvtbones]

do you know what it takes you make a regular mod?! let alone a massive multiplayer online First person shooter?

first off you need alot of servers, not the old pc converted into an myspace page type but the huge ass kind that makes your gaming rig cry.

you want it done, do it yourself but don't cry at us when you fail.

 

[Shinobi]

you know, back when I was working on jungle mist... out kickass coder managed to put together a system where servers could talk to each other through a central server... Essentially you could create a situation where each server has a different chunk of worldspace and players can "warp" between them... To really make it work, I'm assuming he'd at least need access to the protected engine code and do some really low level work...

of course there's a ton of problems like load time between "warps", the fact you'd need a TON of really expensive servers from the start, keeping data consistent etc....


regardless, he managed to make a persistant data system on the HL1 engine which worked fairly well, so dont say it's impossible... It's just impossible from a team of amateur coders with no money for test servers (we were lucky enough to have someone donate us servers)

 

[armanguy]

It's not going to happen. Sorry.

Maybe with that attitude!

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

Make a fortune?
Before you see a single penny from subscriptions, you have to pay for:

Engine licence
Staff
Tools
Servers (hardware and bandwidth agreements)

It's beyond the scope of any mod team.

 

[blackflag486]

ahhh someone will do it. One of these days....

 

[Pi Mu Rho]

Not as a mod they won't.

You see, you'd have to have many, many thousands in capital to set up all of the above. As a mod, you can't charge for your product, so you'd be operating on a permanent and ever-growing loss. Who wants to do that?

Source is a great engine, but there's better technology more suited to MM games out there.
