Fight Game

Re: Fight Game

This entire thing is entirely too impossible to do on forums. The first post is a long read already and it doesn't come close to explaining everything. All you do is list weapons, magic, and classes. You never even touch on how battling is going to work in terms of movement and command usage. You don't explain attack mechanics and the mathematical formulas that go into doing damage. You don't go into the mechanics of level growth and increasing your power/gold. All you say are that there are areas to explore but you don't go into navigation.

Ive made games like this before (not on forums) and it doesn't take just one night to get everything hammered out. It can take weeks and months to get everything ready for play if you want a good game.

Three things that should help your cause.

1:Instead of having a stupidly long post for explaining things, put all of the rules into text files. Have a text file for listing magic and its effects, a seperate file for shops, a seperate file for battle mechanics, a seperate file for job classes, and text files for any particular subject. Once you have these files put them online and put labeled links to them in this thread.

Example: (urls r fake dont click them)
SHOPS
http:/whatever.com/shops.html

MAGIC
http:/whatever.com/magic.html

This method will reduce clutter and give a stylish manual for the game.

2:Playing the entirety of this on the forums would be a pain. Whenever someone wants to play and explore the world, get a password protected chat room in multiplayer so you can talk freely and progress the game faster.

3:Type up all of your maps and area descriptions into text files so you can quickly give people the area they are in and where they can go.

3.5:Get ready for a big commitment if you want to do this. If youre going to bail out on everyone, dont waste our time.

Re: Fight Game

I agree with you emu hater. I was thinking this was just like Final Fantasy, and then thought about how would have go about on a map.

As for me I'll take Warrior. My name I would like to have is Pudge, The Butcher.

Peace out -o24

Re: Fight Game

Not to be rude or anything, but this game is going to take a lot of effort to run. I don't really see it going anywhere. IF you do get support, maybe a sticky, then this game might be awesome. +, who's going to keep track of all the players? How many players can there be? And do you HAVE to join a team?

Once these questions are answered, I'll join. Name: Asterisk. I'll be a Red mage.

Re: Fight Game

As everyone else has said above-- hard to run, but if you're up to the challenge, I'm game.

I'll probably go with red mage, and if we can dual class later (as emu said), I'll probably go redmage/warrior...

but yeah-- redmage named nightfirecat

Re: Fight Game

The battle system is basically FF1 actually. If you have ever played it, you should mostly know much of this game already.

i will make your accounts later...

Re: Fight Game

I'll give it a try, I'll be a red mage.

Re: Fight Game

That doesnt fully explain my concerns about this. Hopefully you have some system for calculating damage because numbers just look pretty unless they can be used. If you dont have a system yet just look up FF1s damage stuff. Its probably online somewhere.

Re: Fight Game

FFI was cool, and I beat the game. Chaos, dang, he was tough.

Ok. I'll join along so I'll be a thief.

Re: Fight Game

I might create a better explanation of it, do you think i should make a new topic? need a vote!
Q: Should i make a new topic for a better explanation of the game? Your accounts will still be saved.
A1: yes
A2: NO!

[Chief0678]

Re: Fight Game

Yea, I guess you should. It would be easier that way. You still didn't explain how the battle thing is going to work out anyway. Maybe u should make a Question and Answer thread or something.

Is my account in already? Thief!

Re: Fight Game

Probably aught to make a new thread with more deep explanations on the rules and other things important to the game. If you can, put links with the rules in them like suggested. If you don't then the first post will way too long. So, Yes. Make a new thread.
