Sick!!! Can't wait to see how the full thing turns out! And nice pic of Kenpachi on there. Havn't watched that show in a while... gotta get some free time between homework, Assassin's Creed, Borderlands, and some iPod gaming... lol
nice! i hope this will turn out good i'm looking for another good game since i already finished NOVA and Avatar.....
Alright, Necromancer (FINALLY) came out yesterday, so I have a feeling that this is going to get a boost in production. Let's just hope that's the case... I'm really looking forward to this one after Necro.
dude I really like the make of your games, but they just seem like they are lacking in the grafix, needs more polish!
Thanks rand dude I am working on M.E. now waiting for change requests for Necro =) amazing what we can do these days on a phone.. =-)
Silly, I just got Necromancer Rising, am nowhere close to finishing it, but I'm already looking forward to this.
Hey Ryan, is there a possiblity of any more videos? That'd be sweet to get everyone excited again! Oh, and a couple suggestions- 1. On ME, make us have ammo for guns instead of just using our energy. It'd be nice to be able to use the energy on some cool "jedi-ish" powers, like lightning and stuff. 2. Um.... If you could, it'd be cool if you could change the shields to look like they're energy force fields. The metal just doesn't look futuristic enough. This looks SO amazing and I can't wait for it! Keep up the good work.
I'll check his youtube page real quick since that's where I found the first videos. And actually, the ammo thing is a cool idea. I was also thinking of not having one gun do rapid-fire, shotgun blasts, regular single shots, etc., but have different types of guns, some one handed, some 2 handed. This way, the shields won't be used with the big, powerful guns, giving you a bigger choice as to how you play.
No new videos really... Dang. I hope he sees this and shows us something. I can't wait for the Beta to be ready. But he really should do different guns. Instead of swords and stuff, just have different guns that we switch through. If he did this, this would be a mix of The Infinity Project, Mass Effect, and Borderlands. That sounds like a perfect game mix. Do you agree with me about the shields? An energy shield would be awesome.
Yeah, I agree with the shield thing, but I don't think it should be all of them. I'd think that the higher level shields should be what you describe, not the earlier ones. It's like having some crappy little wooden shield at the beginning of a game like Necro and then working your way up to some huge metal shield, like towards the end of the game (they're insane at the end... I got to beta the later levels). And I actually found 2 videos of gameplay that I hadn't posted on the front page. Give me a sec and they'll be up. EDIT: They're both up now. Check them out on the front page. EDIT 2: Ok, I'm an idiot. I forgot that the second one had already been posted and I put it down as a new video. Whoops.
Ah true. I think they should all be bigger though. A lot of M.E. is gonna have bullets and stuff coming at you, so shields shouldn't start quite as small. Then as you go, your technology gets stronger instead of just bigger. You start out with a pistol and metal shield, and then you'll get better guns, like semi-automatic then fully automatic and more acurate as they go along, and by the end you have lazer guns and energy shields and such. Also, one thing that would be SO awesome would be if he added a 3rd Person Mode. You get such cool armour in Necromancer Rising, but you don't really get to see it. That'd be awesome.
Yeah, that'd definetly be awesome. I just don't know how well/easily it'd be implemented because of the gametype. Luckily, you can still see your character in the menu, but that's not as fun as getting to see your dude in some sick equipment kicking the crap out of some zombies. For the shields, I agree. Yeah, I don't think we'll have tiny shields deflecting bullets any time soon. On the subject of the weaponry, there definetly needs to be different types of guns, rather than abilities. Like in the first gameplay video, you can do auto fire, single shot, or a shotgun blast all with that tiny handgun. I have a hard time imagining that. I'm pretty sure that was just to get things started, but later on I hope bigger and badder weapons get added. Maybe even something equivalent to the BFG. Also, I think some sniping would really make this game a ton of fun. OOH! Idea! Having attachments to your guns! It could alter the abilities that each gun has, so it still feels like you're customizing your character and the way that they fight, but then you're not having things like a fully automatic rocket launcher. This still leaves possibilites like auto shotguns and scoped machine guns. That'd definetly add a layer of depth to the game.
Alright, we should both tell Ryan these ideas. I can't wait for this game though! (Haha as if you couldn't tell) It seems like the perfect kind of game for me. I agree with the attachments. He should simplify the armour in M.E, but really give us more options with weapons. That'd be nice!
I love both of your ideas. Ryan should listen to them, and I'm sure he will. One of my favorite devs ever.
