Large MMORPG Project Looking for PB Coders!

blueznl · Post by **blueznl** » Fri Oct 03, 2003 8:40 am

as a purebasic beginner i still might be interested as well, i've been looking at multiplayer online games from a different angle (with a background in datacenters, mobile communications, startup telecom companies and project management for the last 10 years) i've been focussing on a key problem: how to make money

on these things...

as usual, there are the same problems, time, money, people

you want to make it non-profit or profit?

in addition to the message above, i am more than willing to team up with some people to create something less ambitious, and beginners are welcome

hey i am one!

It's good idea.

When we will start it ?

blueznl · Post by **blueznl** » Thu Oct 23, 2003 9:13 am

looks like you and me then, everybody else appears to have lost interest

So what, even a two is a better than one or noone

)

By the way, I'm finnishing game "Space Shooter" which have a dosen of levels. But my wish is to make some bigger game.

I' will post screenshots in new thread.

ok let's do it, we can keep te community posted on our trials and tribulations

Ok, just tell me what do you know or what you willing to do about this game.

Kernel, Graphics, Sound, Storymaker, LevelMaker ...... more or less modules.

I like fallout 2 game and I think that it will be in this direction made, dice system. It doesn't matter if it will be a realtime or on moves.

Seriously, for me the problem is just a graphics, and of course sounds.

well, let's no be too ambitious at first

lessee...

first thing is: what do we want to build? style of game?

- rts or rpg or shooter
- real time or turn based
- 2d isometric or real 3d?
- any good examples of existing games we want to use for 'inspiration'

- server based or not? central server or not?
- number of users depending on world / setting / server / what?

some other things...

- multiplayer on network and online (internet, tcp/ip)
- independent game logic vs. graphic engine vs. sound engine

let's start with using some off the shelf graphics we grab left and right on the net, later we'll plug in some of our own stuff

hmm... okay, comments / suggestions / wishes / improvements?

Hello team!

I'm working as composer and arranger for children's music education.
I'd like to help with the music.

we're getting a team!

hey, it's a pretty good learning trajectory as far as i am concerned...

take your pick, people, what do we want to build?

MisterDr · Post by **MisterDr** » Mon Oct 27, 2003 1:05 am

We are getting a team.

I'm good with 2d games, in any direction, in fact 3d games are more challenge but let it save for a later.

Ok, if you agree with me here is my proposition:

I think that it will be a RPG 2d style. I have already some graphics and we can find like as you said on the net, and I saw some graphic designers site which we can borrow a people if we stuck.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
But I think that's not a problem, we need a story and we need a less work because of mother nature "will" (who's gona make this game for a two years).
So let's just talk about story.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

rpg 2d isometric, fine with me, i assume multiplayer?

and stories... no problem, how many pages do you want? (hobby fantasy writer behind the keyboard

)

MisterDr · Post by **MisterDr** » Tue Oct 28, 2003 12:19 am

I'm impressed.

That was I call straight forward.

Ok man, if you agree with five pages of story for now. (that's not short belive me). If you want you can erite even more, but I think hat will be enough for now.

From story we will extract what directions about engine will be.

And, if you want I can find some free space and make site to put our progress on it.

C'ya man
