This is my version of Diablo.

Thank you a lot for reading what my map is about, i want opinion of course, AND i want you guys to use the poll to tell me what you think.

GO FOR IT! Battle.net needs some good rpg's!


JUST DO NOT MAKE IT "Just Another Line Attacking Thoughtless Slaughter"!!!

Don't make it too Diablo-like. Killing brainless monsters for no other reason than "they're there for me to kill" is just pointless; and you'll never make a better Diablo than Diablo. If the reward of getting through a dungeon is fighting even more monsters, you're not going to see a lot of players seeing the game through to the end.

Definately work on a cool RPG, but make sure not to neglect the story in all the gee-whiz monster slaughter. My $0.02 anyway.

Thank you for your support, and help. please still feel free to post..

anyways.. i will go ahead and start the map..

i figure since people would want some individualaty, i will make about 30+ classes, some with addons.



it wont be like diablo at all. its how i think it should be, in the time of diablo.
when i say diablo class type items, i dont mean like same unique names, i mean like balrog skin, corona, monarch, ..ETC..

thanx for the support.. now.. i need some class idea's

i am going to make a dueling system where you can duel, outside of town. but when the oppenent you are dueling dies, you are all allied again.

i will be putting up level restriction, like diablo, so that this can stop you from trying to pk a "total" newB. have not yet decided the restricted leve..

ALSO

since this will be a save-character map, i will need to make the max level fairly high.. but im going to make it difficult to gain exp..
making people work harder to get stronger.. cuz i want this map to last a while, and when you get to a high level.. this will mean you are gosu.

ALSO

this map will probably fairly big in size.. (Max: 2.0 mb). so to solve this.. i will be making a web page for it, so you will always be updated with the map, and can download it from the site without worying about being booted...

ANY OPINIONS, PLEASE POST.

Sounds good but I really doubt you can pull off 30+ classes all with custom skins and spells. You would be better off making 5-8 classes with skins and good trigger enhanced spells, anyone can change a basic spell nowdays to do a little more dmg and look a little different.

Id have to be crazy to make 30 custom skins for a map.. i am sorry, i guess i made it seem like that is what i was gonna do.. but its just going to include some custom skins.

btw i already have about 10 custom skins made, that are done.

i am definitely having 30+ classes though, for more individualaty.

and yes there will be trigger enhanced spells.

thx for ur fast response.. ANY MORE?

30+ classes is a LOT. I mean, there's no games I can think of with that many classes.. I'd also suggest sticking to a smaller number just for simplicity, because with so many classes you're bound to be repeating a handful of abilities on multiple classes. There's also some other (balance!) issues that would be harder to work out the more classes that you have.

If you really want to go for that, more power to you though ;)

pshhh dont worry. im taking my time on this map.. AT LEAST two hours a day. and i will have major beta testing, within my clan.

30 classes sounds like nothing.. dont worry.. i want individualaty!


ANY more coments?? PLEASE POST

you can even post ideas

BTW

i am going to use a lot of yoda_24's skins on my map.. he is good

I dont get it how come evil has no reason?

Echo Side is basically like "Hell"

in my beleif, if there was a hell.. i beleive that people would be tortured and punished in some way..

my way of expressing it, is villains causing havoc..
imagine if you were sent there, and these montrousaties were causing havoc.. would you help out? or just let em go? (Rhitorical Question)

is that an okay way to explain?

Cmon i need more responses! i wana know what you guys want/need.. i want this map to be popular, and loved. its been a day, and no responses. please, a response would be loved.

thanx
