Western Island Survival

We moved to campaign/team discussion.

I'm in! Survivor maps have a special place in my heart :D I'l get to the terrain now and do any geomerging, etc. that we'll need. Hopefully joghfn will help with triggers when he get's back, but for now you have me :)

I may be able to help with triggering.

When kind of units are surviving here? Its good that you don't die that easy in this one. How hard will it be to revive allies here? I find its to hard in other survivials.

Eh, its FFA. Once everyone dies, the game starts over. Yay, smart people.

The surviving units are going to be villagers, with a cool model/skin of course. Yay, gimmicks.

=D Welcome to the posse.

Funny sig you have.

You too. =D the great thing is that it changes each time you see it if you hotlink it.

It changes everytime you look at mine. It's even better. =D

Meh, I have a couple of mods to work on, so I ain't signing up, sorry =P.

But, that one Cowiculas Wilderness Survival was really fun, so if this is based on anything like it, then I sure as hell will love this one too =)

It is. Except it's pvp. And less speed-dying. :D

You should be able to make teams or tribes and build encampments. And the making objects element can serve as like hero building where you start specializing in a weapon. I'm curious, will there be any skills specific thing. Like at the end we're all diffrent heroes or such.

There should be animals to hunt for food.
There could be smiths who are weak but play important role in a tribe being able to build bows, wooden tools, weapons and armor. Architects, build towers, homes (heals mana or even health (but more logical if its only mana since health is food and we rest in homes)) and walls (for my next idea).

You should put unknown tribal creatures that attack the player's encampment, this would prolonge the game. You would need to have strong heroes to defend and attack and harvest and smiths and architects to supply them with items. The winner's are the last surviving group/person.

The game cud be played solo or in teams. Also, another idea, at the beginning of the game you can choose your past like what career were you leading (guard/smith/thief/lumberjack/scholar/mage).

They would all have specific unique skills. Such as disrupting the other teams to gain advantages, destroy bases, strong melee units.

The focus would then be on... team survival, revolving around encampment, fight for ressource while fighting the crews from other encampments.

Another idea is the unknown creatures attacking. They would have strong bosses that drop good items.
Then with main events (cinematics) you can unfold some kind of storyline plot.

Now if in solo you dont have smiths and architects (in solo you won't have an encampment of your own). The heroes cud be more versatile or wateva. I'm just dishing out ideas.

Hope you like.

You could be a conceptual advisor if you want. However, a lot of the ideas on there I didn't like. do you have IM, or MSN?

I wudnt mind discussing the map idea seems interesting.

Good news everyone! CW and I have plotted out some features and how it will work. For more info, check this convo:

Also, I updated top post with a massive amount of information. Please read it.

Would it be ok if the map is divided into, say 2-3 small islands? That way each team could claim an island for themselves, and it would make for more interresting gameplay. Get on msn and we can talk more.

THERE ARE NO TEAMS. NONE. MS, go on MSN! Hurry. I don't want two islands, either, just a huge middle island.
