Its not a problem if you know what it means, if It means something at all.
Its not a problem, it just confuses me...

Also have you started actually making the game, or is it all still pen and paper?
I know its still only early in development...

 

[Velocir_X]

I have many of the systems down and some pre things in RPG Maker
just no graphics to do it with...

And parts of the story are still pen and paper - But that writers block is starting to recede :D

 

[KuidonNZ]

Yeah I imagine graphics for a future game would be hard to come across... though Ive never tried.
You might have to hire a spriter...

 

[Velocir_X]

I doubt I have enough rep to hire one, and for sure I don't have enough cash
so far now I'm spriting in all myself D:
Its definitively not going to be perfect

Throughout your OP I kept seeing these weird characters that kept me from being able to read some of the things. The stuff that I did read looks pretty good and revolves heavily around futuristic properties (obviously) which I like and don't see in many RPG Maker XP games, or at least done WELL. What I didn't like is that what you say and what you do decides the outcome of everything. It takes too long for me to get involved in that aspect of games. The very least you could do to have me in control of the character is giving me the privilege of naming it, other than that, I hate that concept. I like when all of the players revolve around a set storyline and follow it in their predetermined actions and dialogue.

 

[Velocir_X]

nah its predetermined, of course, true open-endness is impossible without people or AI
Its just that the player has more freedom to decide things,
the dialouge is still predetermined its just that you can decide which set of it is played,
storyline is predetermined, outcomes are predetermined,
its just that you can select which set - understand?

As for the wierdo marks I'm fixing them now, must be because I copied it over from word
EDIT:
fixed, can't believe I waited so long to do that - silly me

 

[Velocir_X]

I've been working on my game's menu/hud interface recently and I've run across a roadblock,
Being a recent Scifi game I need parody's of modern internet companies like:

Microsoft - Macrosoft (currently)
Google - No idea
Yahoo - Tentative: Woohoo (heh, heh) or Waaaaha (SuperMario)
Skype
etc.

I'm currently stuck on the social networking, having only one interface I can only "make" one site
Stuck between three names (added quiz too)
Yourspace (Myspace parody, Clean and Simple)
Facespace (Combo Parody)
Facepalm (Facebook Parody, lol)

Oh and one more thing - that name fubar has to go...

 

[Æ№∞₧]

I'm sorry. There's wayyyyyy tp many of these okemon/digimon threads up....Even though you did try to combine them, They don't work. THEY FAIL!

/facepalm

Dude, seriously, just stop.

Have you even read the story at all ?

I mean, just because it doesn't have monsters being trapped inside a dark portal, that on the the guardian will let in or out (Why the FUCK would he let monsters in, that means they've had to have been let out to be able to go back in), and it doesn't have anything about Kevins parent's getting killed, doesn't mean it isn't an epic game such as your own.

Someone should ban him... again, he's a retarded faggot troll that no one likes.

(Yeah, I did just copy/paste my old post, since you're retarded and don't understand english)

 

[Velocir_X]

And since he seems to be ignorant to my reply, I will repost it also
JBrist thanks for your persistence, I am unsure if I would be able to stand this by myself

But Mr. TG did you at all read the description in the mechanics overview?
They are a single assigned AI
The closest resemblance in the pokemon world are the rescue teams (which indeed I was playing)
You did not mention these at all; and in truth it still doesn't work like that
It seems as if you did that grouping simply because there is a "mon" ending
and truth be told I am perfectly willing to change that;
I have never been good at making up names
In fact the closet resemblance in other games are the Navis in Megaman
It would of been most appropriate to call it a Megaman clone
And yet I took steps to avoid such a grouping
The "mon" are not humanoid and do not "jack in"
there is a cryogenics process involved in order to acess "the net" in such a manner
In adition there is a major difference in battle system from all the games mentioned
I am using XAS Abs a Zelda-style system (And if you didn't realize there is no resemblance there)
And I am attempting to create a dark morally challenging story
which is more similar to modern games such as Bioshock or the Witcher
and not the trivial make-believe matters mentioned in such Nintendo games.
I am striving for the perfection presented in the the Witcher's First Act.
Following excerpt taken from the Gamespot Review

It shouldn't be much of a surprise that the line between good and evil here isn't a very thick one. Everything is a murky gray. The first act is simply astonishing in how it plays out. You start off trying to track down the bad guys who raided your witcher fortress and killed one of your pals, but soon get involved in a feud that pits the religious leader and nobles of a hamlet against a witch. However, nobody's hands are clean. One merchant you deal with is in cahoots with the evil cult you're hunting. A guard you help with a ghoul problem turns out to be a rapist. The village priest you're helping cleanse the region of a demonic dog called "the Beast" is actually a misogynistic lunatic. And the witch isn't much better, given that she's sold poison used in a suicide and employed a voodoo doll to make one of the local bigwigs kill his brother. By the end of the act, in a showdown complete with burning torches and pitchforks, you're forced to choose between the woman-hating, rape-loving, cult-affiliated mob and the murdering witch. It makes the most sense to side with the witch because the villagers are an awfully sleazy lot, but doing so forces you to slaughter virtually all of them and leave their town burned to the ground.

So no, The Witcher sure isn't all sunshine and lollipops. But even though you might need a few Prozac pills to handle the game's bleak tone, the story becomes incredibly compelling when you have so much riding on your actions. Characters seem like real people, not the good-evil-neutral triad of stereotypes that populate most fantasy games.

(note I apoligize for my constant comparisons but the Witcher is my favorite game of all time :])
So in the end I hope you read this and smile looking forward to my project
As I look forward to your improved next one

FaceSpace. I like it. *thumbs up*

As for Fubar, could you refresh my memory? ^_^;; My guess is maybe like a police force or something? But, considering that "Fubar" is a real-world acronym, and not a particularly flattering one, you may wish to consider something else. ^^;; I'm decent at coming up with names, and could at least assist you with that, if you so choose. ^_^

 

[Velocir_X]

Actually Facespace isn't my idea, kudos to Dojo for it

Anyway,
Fubar is in actuality the name for the opposite side,
the skunkworks masked by Richard's charities
their name stems from the fact that they find severe problems in the current system, their vigilantes...
From that angle it makes sense
The problem is that I have applied it too liberally and tried to name the Richard's whole company that...
This is impossible in the real world as fubar is a profane acronym
I attempted to mask it as fuBAR or "fully/completely above the bar/standard"
Sadly this is too half-baked to even make sense in game, let alone be immersive to the player.

 

[Celestia Whitesword]

Oh yeah. I think I came up with "Spacebook" in that one thread. XD

How about V.A.S.T.? "Vigilante Assault Strike Team"

 

[Velocir_X]

But how could that also apply to a professional for profit company O.o?

 

[Celestia Whitesword]

Hrm, good point. ^^;; Maybe that could be applied to the sub-group involved in such things?

Vastcorp? Or would that be too obvious of a connection?

 

[Velocir_X]

Vast Application Solutions for Technology :D
or just V.A.S.T

Thanks a bundle :D

 

[Celestia Whitesword]

Sure thing. ^_^ Glad I could lend a hand.

Maybe you should not swear in every post you make. I don't enjoy you swearing so much. You should be banned for excessive swearing.

 

[zchin]

I haven't checked the rules in a while but I don't think that excessive swearing is against the rules. And I haven't really seen much digimon ideas, but the pokemon idea is used a bit too much. When I was smaller I loved digimon, I'm sad now that the show was shut down...... Anyway, you should try and give good comments if you also have bad ones, my Retian topic was abandoned because I didn't get much support, if your trying to do that to this thread, QUIT IT! Also, I do think that you might want to be cautious about being banned again, remember, "Don't beat the dead horse"!

I don't believe you deserve a good day...... Hmph!

 

[Velocir_X]

Furthermore this is in no way a pokemon/digimon clone either way,
as there s NO COLLECTING ELEMENT
seriously people read first before making judgments,
