Let people get to the max level in your MMORPG, then allow them to open your full fledged world editing tool to make their own home area. Remember player housing? Now you can create a whole island. This must be GM approved still
The only reason why I can't figure why they haven't made user generated dances verified by GM for WOW is maybe they're worried 2 emotes could combine to make a sexual style emote.
Starcraft 2 is going to ship with an even more powerful Map Editor with its own language that is similar to C++.
User generated content is the future.
Oh yeah, and Little Big Planet must have failed too?
In the early 90s, I wrote an RPG called,"Intergalactic Bounty Hunter." I took what I learned from other RPGS and made better combat mechanics(actually worse in some ways after play testing). The setting was space after Earth was destroyed and warp drive was invented and cheap so lots of vehicles could travel in space. The idea is that there were only a few out posts where people lived and worked, but there was all of space to hide in. So criminals found it similar to the old west where they could rob and then flee to space. This is why there were bounty hunters.
One time, my friend got a mutant power(blatant ripoff of Xmen), and he was able to charge things with kinetic energy(not like Gambit). So he found two mice and shot them at a guy with great velocity. He asked me if they lived. I said,"No". He said,"You didn't roll. You roll for everything" So I privately rolled four 1d20, and if a 1 comes up, that is a rare success. I rolled all four 1s. So I had a strange look on my face and told him,"Ok, you don't know if they survived or not."
The battle raged and then he went looking for the mice, but he couldn't find them because they were up in a melted plasma cannon turret, so the party continued onward. And me, being the devious GM that I am, figured the mice to mutate to be super smart with the mutant power even though they became parapalegic. They used parts from the plasma turret to rebuild their limbs and then they built machinery to enable transportation and survival. This was before Pinky and the Brain. They were two parapalegic mice trying to defeat the Quadlek(furry 4 armed mutant-Player Character) that made them this way.
Once they tracked down the Quadlek that made them this way and was about to kill him, he said,"Hey I may have crippled you, but I made you super smart too." And with that they decided not to kill him, but instead to conquer the universe. So they became yet another recurring character in the RPG. I also thought,"If only I knew someone to make a cartoon involving 2 mice trying to take over the world that it'd make excellent episodic content." and 1 year later Pinky and the Brain came out.
I'm really good at coming up with successful ideas that other people eventually implement!

It never fails when you order a computer piece mail that you forget to buy a part. This time it was the case. So I took the UPS box that it came in, and carved out some slots for the ports, and used it as a case. I just made sure never to leave it on overnight in case of fire.
You know the day I heard of Quantum Link on C64 was the day I started dreaming of MMORPGS. I found games less fun to play because I had in my mind the perfect MMORPG. I spent thousands of hours over a decade and a half trying to code MMORPGS. Now that MMORPGS are out and boring, my ultimate dreams for video games is sorta deflated.
I have a new dream though. It isn't as big as the old dream, but it could be potentially more fun. Game Master driven CRPGS. I know they have them already, but I'd want to do one well. Theoretically, you can get a better experience through a computer than Pencil and Paper. And with computer you can play with people who all aren't in the same physical location. This dream isn't big enough to pursue however. I have so many things on my plate that I want to do.
Someone probably already tried this, but here goes anyway:
Allow people to put things they own up for sale permanently. This way people list and forget then a few weeks down the road, they sell some stuff. The biggest barrier to competing with ebay is getting a significant amount of junk people may want to look through. Allowing everyone to basically have their own storefront means you collect enough junk over a few years that people start coming to your site regularly.
You also have to do the standard auction thing, but that isn't the selling point.
I know the early days of Hubble many sciencey people were arguing that Hubble was a waste of resources. Do people still think this? Does anyone remember those days?
Myth #3 is correct. Even if you protect your idea, other people will figure it out anyway. There are only so many good ideas out there. Many ideas I had for multimillion dollar markets became correct and people are making millions of dollars in ideas I came up with. At least I know a high percentage of the ideas I come up with are good.
First let me start off with its strongest point: Avatar creation. The Avatar creation is very excellent. I've never seen one as good as this one where you can customize your character's looks. Many people spent over a half hour customizing their character in this tool. It is also a treat when you play the game to see new looks.
There is a high degree of character customization. Out with the Tank/Heal/DPS/Ranged/PETS, in with do it all if you know how. Some people like to pick skills based on their character, but you can pick skill all across the board if you like.
There is encouragement to do quests by a lot of experience in relation to grinding. You won't see much grinding in this game, but more of mission doing.
I fought a Super Villian with my friend the other day. He had turrets and minions. So we killed the minions, then turrets, then one of us would block while the other fought the villian. If we took too much damage, we could scoot around the many walls in his chamber and heal. I'm going to upload Youtube videos when I get bored, but I'm not bored. I'm level 30, and haven't died. Level cap is 40.
My last MMORPG that I really liked was Asheron's Call 1. I felt WOW was sort of a boring grind. Champions Online is a great game if your computer can handle it(need a computer in last 2 years with good video card). Finally: Flight + Ranged = New era of combat tactics. Super speed is really cool too, as if you go fast enough, you can run up 80% grade inclines too. I haven't tested out everything, but I really like this game.
I'd rather get 10 spam messages than one phone call. The phone call distracts me from my day to day activities, while email is a mode I put myself to check. I'm glad they're outlawing robocalls.
The trick is that the Museum must be populated with as many arcade games as possible.
It has to have every good console game in existence.
I'd pay 10$ every day to go to an arcade/museum just to meet other gamers and talk about video games.
This is actually a dream of mine to do myself, but I don't have the funds. All I can do is emulators. But if I let anyone come play and someone rats me out to the feds, it will close down rapidly.
WOW is MMORPG players. SC2 is RTS players. There is some overlap, but generally they'll make more money if they run a handful of different MMORPGS and release non MMORPG games along side them. Most of the cash comes from MMORPGS, but standard video games can rake in even extra money.
Make it hold up to 8 people per car on a computerized rail system that could switch rails until you get to a destination. We don't have to wait for technology to catchup to get a system like this, we could build it in cities now.
When you make it so the optimal way to beat a level is to run through quickly it avoiding all the enemies, your game is no fun unless its Sonic the Hedgehog the MMORPG.
Much appreciated. I'm familiar with Gimp. I downloaded Blender, but it seemed to complicated for me to understand. If you think I should try 3d models out myself, maybe I will. I think I'm going to make a stable build of my game and see if anyone wants to pitch in through forums. Does anyone have advice on what forums are good?
Any advice is welcome. I need to learn how to network. I also have trouble finding a job even though I'm a highly skilled coder. I guess I'll start going out to public places with my laptop.
My whole point was: If there was an easy way to create models for monsters in my game, I could rapidly develop the MMORPG part of it! The limiting factor that I perceived was enemy models. I can't make them, nor do I know anyone who can. If Spore would allow crowdsourcing to make a ton of free models, I'd be back on my feet immediately instead of looking to become a Starcraft 2 pro gamer.
I'm a programmer and not an artist. I wrote a 3d fighting online game that is fun, but has no art other than boxed meshes that form a fighter(www.roamingdragon.com). I abandoned it because I was like,"I have no money. How could I possibly attract artists to make models and levels for me? I'm not going to do it myself because I have no skills as an artist or model creator.". If someone could explain to me how I can get someone to make me models that would look like Tekken or Virtual Fighter characters, I'll jump back on the horse and finish my game. It only has about 3 more months of work(all I need to do is add moves through my animation maker), and I have spent on and off for 6 years making it.
Cassius C. Corodes,
+ What do you mean by this? Why is their reaction important?
God is the judge of all creation. He judges our secret thoughts. One's reaction to hearing the Good News preached is going ahead of them to judgment day if they do not accept Jesus.
+ But as the creator of the universe is he not the origin of the sin?
He created beings with free will. When you allow for free will, the ability to rebel against his wishes is possible. Sin is defined as disobeying God. Many beings in the old Heaven allied against God to
do evil, but it was not God's wish at all. The origin of sin on Earth comes from the serpent which many refer to as Satan.
+ What about the criminally insane?
I think this also is lumped into people that don't know any better. A child can also shoot his family members with a gun and not know any better. It is the same question as saying,"Who goes to Heaven and
who doesn't". Friend, God is the only judge there. There are people who never heard of Jesus Christ that are going to Heaven. That doesn't mean you can ignore Jesus in today's society at all. If you
accept Jesus and repent of sin, you're certainly going to Heaven. It is that easy. It is God's gift. We're not to worry about difficult to understand cases on our own. But if the person involved is a
loved one who died, we can pray on their behalf and God listens and can be merciful to our loved ones.
+ but as you say god knows your thoughts - could he not just punish those who would do evil and save everyone else suffering - he could then arrange it so that nobody would know that the evil doer ever existed thereby not "ruining" the test.
If God predestined Satan for hell with everyone knowing what he did today, I think many people would be happy. But lets say God predestined all of the wicked to hell at the beginning of time. God's people who are meriful would ask God,"Why are there beings in hell?" Indeed God's people who don't have the ability to see the future like God would have sympathy and plead for the evil beings to God. This would make God to look like an evil being himself because he judged the beings on what he thought they would do against what they did. If you want them to never exist, there are similar problems if you can identify what beings were never brought into existence down the road. The most important thing to realize is that this is a cosmic matter above which mortals do not have enough information to understand one option against another. God is smarter than every man combined so he picked the right course of action.
+ I'm not sure I understand this - if people are changed after they accept Jesus - why not just change everybody to live in peace? Or let god weed out the sinners as he is all-knowing?
The plan to use Jesus who died for our sins in order to convince people to repent and stop doing evil is God's master plan. I don't expect many people to understand it, but it is one of God's most wise actions. It is directly how God won the victory of "Good vs Evil". Because people realize there is Jesus who gave up Heavenly pleasures to suffer and die for them, they get a better sense of realizing how bad sin is, and how much Jesus loves us. Once they realize this, they may repent of their sin, thusly going from an evil being to a good being. Jesus changes evil sinners into good saints! This is the process by which evil is defeated. Even the angels in Heaven didn't understand this at first, but there is a track record of Jesus turning sinful souls into good souls.
+ but for you to accept that the bible is definitely the word of god does that not imply that you believe you could not be wrong about it?
I was directed to the Good News Bible through the power and word of God. You can read about it at www.faithclub.net.
If you want to talk more to me: James_Sager_PA@yahoo.com
In most forums, people just hurl insults and do not talk rationally. Slashdot is a nice place to be
- If god is omnipotent / all powerful etc - why do you need to tell others about him? Can he not do this himself if he felt it was the thing to do?
God wants to use people to spread the Good News because it seems foolish to people who want to put God in a box. It makes a ton of sense. He wants to see people's reaction to it.
- If god is generous rewarding etc. - why is there evil in the world>=? Why does he allow situations to occur that turn good people into bad people? (trauma, post-traumatic stress etc.)
Sin is the reason there is evil in the world.
And there is no such thing as "good people", as we've all done wrong.
- Why heaven - why not just make the real world nice.
Again, it goes to sin. Those who choose to do evil need to be allowed to do their evil and be convicted. If God stepped in every time that someone wanted to do evil and stopped him, that being never really could be guilty of doing evil could they? God is allowing the tares to grow along side the wheat. At the end of time, God will throw the tares into the furnace.
To put it another way: If only one being knew how to rule justly, and you didn't accept to live with this being, you'd be spending eternity in an unjust universe which is referred to as Hell. By accepting Jesus as savior, he'll make it possible for you to live in peace with others.
- Why do you believe you know the mind of god? (sorry if I read that wrong - but from your post you seem convinced you do). You may believe that god cannot be mistaken - but do you believe that you cannot be mistaken for thinking you know his mind?
I know qualities of God. The Bible speaks of them. I cannot say I know what God is thinking, but God knows what I am thinking. He knows what you're thinking as you read this.
