ORPG

OK so I'll be working on this very much so~ I think a Map Development Thread should be started.

MADE A MAP DEVELOPMENT THREAD HERE

Foreword

Well I've been playing Twilight's Eve a lot lately and very much enjoying it.(For those who don't know, it's a custom warcraft 3 ORPG)I had so much fun that I decided to make my own ORPG, being Crescent Moon ORPG.

I started thinking about posting it here maybe three days ago (more or less) but due to the fact that I had personal stuff to do and also due to the fact I posted another project months ago that basically I couldn't even start. It was too big for me to handle so anyway I posted it now (YAY), about the project...

About the Project

Story

As of now I'm still working on the story but to give you an idea of what I came up with, here are some details:

It was a flash of light...Then the world just broke into pieces. No one really knew how or why...or what could have caused such devastation...But, it has been written...

"The world will be shattered and steered asunder by the blinding light of Pandora. And it will be cleansed by the great fire of cleansing, the fire of Epta. The seven shall not defeat the seven, the keys shall be hidden. The great cleansing is at hand."

Ok so I changed the story a bit...still working on it

Features

Multi-Map ORPG - So like the name implies, Crescent Moon will have several Maps to play through, each with it's levels of difficulty. Maps will be signified with their City/Town or maybe an epic dungeon.

The first Map will be "Crescent Moon ORPG - Crescendo" Crescendo being the main city featured in the map.

Save/Load - Well of course we need a save/load, without it no one can transfer to different maps which will be a great aspect of the game.

Combo System - Crescent Moon will feature a combo system, that for every 3 attacks done successfully in a row, there will be a chance to do either:

Rapid Combo: At this state the attacker will deal rapid blows on a target and knocking it back.

Charge Combo: At this state the the attacker will charge for X seconds then unleash a powerful blow knicking the target back.

Magic Combo Anyone?

Party System - I'm thinking of making a party system where you can create a party with a maximum of three players. This is also essential to some quests that will require a group of three.

Well, to be honest: Ragos ORPG is a multi-map ORPG of some kind... there are multiple maps, the save/load-codes work for every map, but it is a good idea nonetheless.

I don't like the story, for some reason all stories begin with "X years ago, there was a great war", which is outdated.
Try coming up with an original story... something without a war if possible.

The classes on the other hand are pretty good and very original, I like them.

I hope you've got enough experience and will to carry on, since a multi-map orpg takes pretty long to finish (though all systems are the same, you will need to create a lot of terrains).

Why not?I like the story...this is classical wc3 after all,few years after a great war...

Yeah, that's exactly the problem... everyone uses it, every story looks like another one, with different characters.
I don't see the fun in that.

I find original stories to be more entertaining.

 

[reason 3]

You have a point there...but still this is just your opinion.Every people has a different opinion on what is good and what bad.

I'll be waiting for your opinions. ^^

I guess the point was that I told my opinion about the map(s) ^^
But yeah, I guess some people like those stories, it's just that I got tired of them.

Well apocalypse has a point there too. Seen so much stories about war and all...well it's kinda boring. Besides the war thing isn't my final idea I have something in the back of my head. It's awfully hard to get XD.

Wow I thought I was the only one who thought of the multi-map genre(is it a genre?) It's a big world, great minds think a like I guess, lol.

Why thank you, I very much planned on making the classes unique as possible. I was kinda tired of the swordsman, archer, etc. classes. A good idea is incorporate the classes with the story.

Thanks for your opininions guys ^^

P.S. I suck at terrain

Why not have a Zealot Hero? Sort of a paladin more steered towards warriorship than priesthood. In Jesus' times they were known as dagger carriers due to their fierce counterattacks to the Roman legion than restricted their religious beliefs.

The Zealot should grow in power the more pressure he is under (for instance if he is debuffed, or stunned, or surrounded, or low on health and mana ETC)
