Real Life
"Real Life" is a map about just that. Where you can do whatever you want, and have the events actually happen (as close as we can make it). You can go through elementary school, age through life, get a job and such. If you're lucky enough, special things will happen. You can even roleplay as your character if you want to.The Group -Weyrling and TheOverWhelming- Triggerer/Overview Terrainer: Weyrling Triggerer/Terrainer/Idea person: TheOverWhelming Summary: You can join the military, work out (still deciding on that part). I can't give ALL the specifics right now. Note: For now, there'll only be a Male and Female Human, a Male Orc and a Female Night Elf. Features
Progress: Terraining: 35% Triggering: 8% (if even). Doodad Placement: 7% Interactive Systems: 3% Object Editor Data: 12% Things to Decide: • Real Life chat system Things we are thinking of using. Any ideas or suggestions? Feel free to comment, or whatever. This point onwards will be quotes from me and Weyr about the map.

What makes it different from LoaP? |

Ugh I hate LoAP. These kind of maps are plaguing b.net. |

I'm afraid that LOAP sucks, horribly. It doesn't go through childhood, its systems are buggy (I also believe it leaks) and it has no real value. This one is actually one that makes sence. And TEC Ghost, it's not a "these," this map is a lot different then those LoAPs. Instead, DoTA is plagueing battle.net. |

Anyway, with the sheer number of LOAPs out there, you have to really make yours stand out. |

Wow. You serious? In LOAP you can't do whatever you want. You can't jump. You don't have a food supply. You don't have any body heat. LOAP was made by a very bad mapper, this one wont be. |

You obviously can't have a map in which you can do even near "everything" so I suggest making a more detailed description. You said school and job and mentioned jumping. Can you join the military? Can you do yoga? Can you play basketball? Can you flip someone off? Can you crap in a urinal? |

If I must really be that specific? Because I shouldn't have to. Editted post. |

There will be an Actions spellbook in which you can do any conceivable physical action such as jumping, pushing somebody, sprinting, sleeping, etcetera. You will be able to obtain and use a large number of weapons in realistic ways, if you buy a gun it will fire a projectile that you have to aim, if you buy a knife you can use it in melee combat or throw it. There will be fields such as Food and Water, and exhaustion that will give you negative effects if you don't replenish them. I'm designing a magic system for this game that will have a large number of potential applications, from killing your enemy to creating an object or golem to protect an area/hunt somebody down/etcetera. There will be an AI system implemented for all the NPCs so that you're more like a part of the game, rather than the entire focus of the game. |

If there's a mafia I'll kill you both. Loaps fail. All of them. You may say this one is different, but you must prove it first. And yes, you have to go into detail or people will make assumptions about your map. Loaps are plaguing bnet right behind dota. |

/agree No mafia, japanese gang(forgot the name), grove street og or any other gangsta' shiznit. ALL Loap maps have gangs and some other wierd shit like Disco Dude, Drug Lord, blah blah. They're all bent on ganging some douchebag with your homies, they're like footies, with near-unlimited amounts of spawns and it's FFA. With some stupid shit like, "rub teh bank too get sum moneys! der r poleese wit guns soo b carful!" |

I played Wolf Loap once. There was a 'mafia'. Enough said. |
| 12-06-2007, 08:23 PM | #13 |
Frankly, I feel insulted that you're comparing me to those retards. The only form of unlimited spawns will be people coming in from outside, to emulate people arriving and such, and that won't be continuous. I will probably include some form of organized crime, but it won't be an uber-mafia gang, it'll probably be a black-market type deal where you can buy illegal weaponry or hire a thug, no underworld drug lord shit. Which reminds me, there will be licenses for carrying weaponry, so if a cop sees you walking around with a machine gun he will tell you to drop your weapon and show him your identification and licenses and such. There will be no quick and easy way to get money. If you try to rob a bank you will die, unless you have some friends, and even then somebody will still die, the bank(s) will be heavily guarded and armored (You'd have to get the vault code or use explosives). If you want me to go into more detail about anything just tell me, I'm not the best orator and I don't want any misunderstandings from my horrible people skills. |

Yeah guys, I doubt LoAP is second in line firstly, Elimination Tournament is. There will be no "Mafia Lord" or "Drug Lord" and shiz. The crime will be different, as Weyrling said, robbing a bank will be a LOT more harder then running inside, pressing a couple buttons and such and running out. And we're thinking about makeing explosives a LOT harder to get. And the combination code, I suspect, will be with a whole bunch of numerical equations that could be chosen, so it wont be something like 1 2 3 4 5 6 forever. |

I suggest, in order to prevent more misunderstandings, you update your first post with as much information about the game as you can (without getting stupid I mean. Things like "You can buy machine guns at X" is useless, but mentioning there are many weapons to buy or smuggle is helpful.), and then post letting us and others know you've done that. (it looks like you already have, but still.) Also, when using the 'hidden' tags, do this: [ hidden=title] blah [ /hidden] (no spaces obviously.) That would come out as
This makes life easier for us, so we know what's in those boxes. "Hidden Information" isn't very descriptive. Oh, and a question. Will triggering be done in GUI, JASS, or both? |
