So I'm creating the most epic MMO ever

[Rapstah]

It's going to be called OMFG Online and I was thinking something along the lines of a huge multiplayer sandbox where players build the world somehow that I haven't figured out yet. That obviously isn't going to make a working MMo, and I'm expecting you to come up with ideas for me. All ideas are welcome as long as they don't have anything to do with first-person.


(crappy logo made in Photoshop, that I have absolutely no skills in)

I'm totally serious with this, by the way. And this thread is not about recruiting people for a team of any kind, I'm going to do this all on my own unless the need of help gets too high.

Go.

EDIT: It'll contain evil clouds with black evil eyes, too, now that I remember it.

EDIT: List of features suggested:

• Players build pyramid
• Guitar Hero guitar tree chopping
• Player housing
• Boats
• Ferris wheel

See where I'm going here?




Uh, force players to construct a pyramid. Watch as the hierarchy develops!

 

[Rapstah]

Don't be a pessimist. :hmph:

 

[TCfromBN]

I'm not trying to be.

 

[BabyHeadCrab]

OMFG online needs player housing, imo

 

[VictimOfScience]

Give only two choices for clothes for each sex. Everyone is invisible to everyone else unless they wear the clothes and only then can they see the other people with the same style clothes. Or something along those lines....

 

[Krynn72]

And boats. It needs boats that players can construct, and drive on physics water.

It should also have a ferris wheel as a main feature.

 

[Pesmerga]

A first person mode. With guns.

 

[Sheepo]

And guns, lots of guns.

Edit: Pesmerga posted just before me. *shakes fist*

 

[Stigmata]

You need to be able to plug in the Guitar Hero USB controller and use it to chop down virtual trees.

 

[Rapstah]

I'll regret creating this thread.

 

[Pesmerga]

Also pyramids. Just focus on pyramid building - the more time you play the bigger your pyramid becomes. It'll be a huge success.

 

[Eejit]

... new sourceworld thread imminent... evacuate immediately.

 

[Rapstah]

Only this ain't Source.

 

[VictimOfScience]

And raids will consist of CLOSETS ONLY. Steal more clothes and if your outfit is stolen you have to join the other guild of other-clothes-wearing avatars. You can't be everything to everyone. Focus on one thing: clothes! Forget pyramids and boats and guns and see-saws and the rest!

Same HL2.net hubris.

Dec '06 eh? Sourceworld was before your time young'un... Those were the days of madness, when waiting so long for HL2's release started... changing people... making them go a bit crazy...

I've always wanted to see shoe-shining implemented in a game. Have NPCs that need their shoes to be shined by players, and this will be a source of money for the players.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. That can be in the expansion pack to my idea. :thumbs:

 

[Raziaar]

Why stop at shoe shining? Why not have the mmorpg be entirely about the shoe industry and all aspects of shoes in life?

 

[Pesmerga]

What about Space Marines???

SPACE MARINES!!!

 

[VirusType2]

Giant Orgy

Giant Nudist Colony MMO with digitized photos of the acutal players' faces for the character models.

 

[Top Secret]

God NEEDS to be visible in the sky at all times. Maybe some sort of figure way up there flying around, doing something productive...

 

[Pesmerga]

God NEEDS to be visible in the sky at all times.

YOU MEAN THE IMMORTAL GOD KING EMPEROR OF MAN KIND?

Cut your throat for your heresy!

 

[VirusType2]

digitized penises.

 

[Stigmata]

I have an idea.

Remember how Parappa the Rappa and Amplitude make you play music with a regular controller? Well, why not make OMFG Online a regular game that you play with an instrument controller? Or even just a normal guitar in Drop-D tuning?

You would walk around by playing a low D, D#, E, or F (forward/back/left/right), the speed of which is controlled by how fast you play the note. The camera/crosshair is controlled with slide notes along the B and E strings (up/down and left/right). Attacks are controlled by binding attacks and abilities to notes on the A, D, and G strings. Chat is entirely voice-controlled.

Doing anything in the game would require an epic solo to be played.

Inpromtu Jam Sessions ? la LOTRO.

Where is that from lol..

 

[Narvi]

YOU MEAN THE IMMORTAL GOD KING EMPEROR OF MAN KIND?

Cut your throat for your heresy!​

Considering that isn't the Immortal God Emperor of Mankind, I think we have to wonder who's the real heretic here. :sniper:​
