Posted May 29, 2013 Before you ask:No, we don't expect to make a AAA game, but we hope to make a pretty good indie. The Project is closed for the school year, check back next summer! [spoiler|Design concepts for Kat]Underlayer Fleece (toggle-able) Overlayer (armor)I bet you want me to make an under-underlayer, but I wont. You perverts. I'll start with a few Ideas I have:It's set in the future, we've moved away from bullet based weaponry and have instead adopted flechette style energy based weapons (basically mini-railguns), ditching traditional weapon layout for more compact bullpup style. These weapons can bypass most armor types, except for tank-like Titanium Carbide Plating.What other things can you guys think of?Here's a link to a google doc made by Kuzma.http://bit.ly/1avjqC2Summary:OpenCL physics,TressFX skin & clothingTomb raider & Crysis influenceFPS & RTS All in oneNo more bullets, RAILGUNSA Girl is the main character, her name is Katt, her close friend is her sidekick, his name is Mason, He's a Medic, it is later revealed that Katt is adept in hacking and computer use.Katt is severely injured in the beginning, mason discovers her and nurses her back to health. and is again injured in an explosion of a truck, though only minorly.females have a high chest and head armor bonus, while non critical areas are near useless to armormales have more health, but females have a smaller hitbox.good guys is northern US, bad guys is southern terrorists and bandits, anyone sensible has moved northeverone is fighting over a new resource found on the moon, which was struck by a meteor and spreading the resource over the south USA.HOVERTANKSHot Girls in Epic ArmorLinus, Slick, We need a forum section for this game to organize it rightLinux Support & Mods, lots of mods.that covers the first 340 posts of this thread. hope it helped!

Posted May 29, 2013 Flechettes are tiny little darts or blades, not energy weapons. ;) If it's actually energy weapons, maybe the vehicles could have some kind of highly reflective coating to try dumping as much of the heat back as possible?

Posted May 29, 2013 Author well, the flechettes are fired off by strong electromagnetic rails, which consume energy, the flechettes are charged with energy in the process.

Posted May 29, 2013 I've always wanted to see a somewhat star wars like sci-fi but its a fps/rts Join the LTT star citizen fleet today- http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/105285-ltt-conglomerate-now-with-added-legitimacy-over-1000-members-edition-now-with-added-gdocs/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 29, 2013 Author speaking of fps/rts, there could be a "commander mode" where you would play from an RTS perspective, and give commands and information to the squads below, which are real players playing an FPS.

Posted May 29, 2013 well, the flechettes are fired off by strong electromagnetic rails, which consume energy, the flechettes are charged with energy in the process. Fair enough I guess. My interpretation of energy weapons would be something that doesn't fire any type of projectile, but rather a beam or burst of energy (be that electrical, thermal, whatever). Not saying that rail guns firing flechettes don't also sound cool. :) Desktop - Custom watercooled R4E/i7 3930k/GTX 780 SLI/32gb 2400mhz DDR3/Xonar STX/OCZ V4 256gb RAID 0/24tb RAID 5 Laptop - Clevo P370EM - i7 3630QM/GTX 680M SLI/8gb 1866mhz DDR3/840 pro 256gb RAID 0/750gb mechanical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 29, 2013 If were going to "make a game" shouldn't we come up with a plot first?

Posted May 29, 2013 Author hmmmm...... i've thought about this. but i'm thinking of establishing some core mechanics and some other stuff first, then we'll make the plot. but i'll start thinking of some plot Ideas while we do.

Posted May 29, 2013 Well if we do sci-fi A- Rebellion B- War of sorts C- Alien invasion D- infectious zombie like disease E- Trying to colonize awaken ancient power Other mechanics A- Vehicle support but that is me and love of big battles B- single player or multi player C- 2 steps from hell orchestra music D- Ground battles and space battles E- If we wanted to do something slightly strategy there is the squad command style like republic commando or more like a real RTS like tom clancy end war these are some ideas off the top of my head Join the LTT star citizen fleet today- http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/105285-ltt-conglomerate-now-with-added-legitimacy-over-1000-members-edition-now-with-added-gdocs/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
