At the moment this is more of an idea than an actual project, but I figured I'd make a topic for it so other people can get on-board if they wish.

Forums and Flamewars



Summary: ShowHide
The concept would be that the player would be a newcomer to Chaos Project. Blizzard somehow gets captured by a malicious fiend, and they must team up with some of the other members of CP to save him on an epic quest through teh interwebz. The whole game would be largely humorous, but it would have it's own sort of unique charm, especially to all of the members who appear in it, either as major NPCs or party members.

The combat system (though I haven't determined whether it will use a modified DBS or BABS) would have a number of classes based on the denizens of teh internet. For example, the main character would start as a n00b, but could class change to a troll, or some other such class. Other examples of classes would be Mods, Lurkers, Comentathores, etc. Special attacks would be like "STFU n00b," "Tits or GTFO," and "LOLWUT," which would have various effects based on their general usage on teh internetz. One interesting feature I would like to include that may or may not be possible would be the addition of "Gets." As anyone familiar with 4chan and the like knows, a "Get" post is an attempt to post with a certain post number. In a similar manner, "Get" based skills would fail if they did not land on a certain turn. For example, a "3 Get" based ability would have to take place third in the combat sequence. This would probably require a custom script, and will be thrown out entirely if we opt to use BABS rather than the DBS. Armor would be based on Proxys rather than Armor Level. Stats would be changed to things like e-penis seize, etc.

Anyway, that's my idea. I'm a little busy at the moment, but I should have enough time to fit in some work on it here and there. If anyone is interested in working on it with me, post here. Questions and comments are also welcome.

...wut O.O

It's so... intriguing... o.o

Vell

I nominate myself as the main villain.

Fallen Angel X

Perhaps the villain should be Dart. Blizz's pathetic co-worker >8U

I'll help with whatever, just ask >:3

lonely_cubone

I love this idea! I'm curious as to who the playable characters will be.

Spaceman McConaughey

I wanna be a party member, please! :D

That would be epicness!

Shining Riku

I don't believe i'm 'famous' enough here that people would want me to be a playable character, so I guess I could be in as an NPC? Maybe at least a helpful one for a bit?

I can help out! I'm good with just about everything but music making and scripts.

lonely_cubone

Yeah, I can help out too, if you want. Like Riku said, I'm not very well-known, but being an NPC would still be nice :D

Please?

Ryex

if this ever gets made, I'd better be in it, and not just as a camo. Yes, I AM consented
I no longer keep up with posts in the forum very well. If you have a question or comment, about my work, or in general I welcome PM's. if you make a post in one of my threads and I don't reply with in a day or two feel free to PM me and point it out to me.<br /><br />DropBox, the best free file syncing service there is.<br />

WhiteRose

Glad to know there's some interest. Once I install RMXP on my new computer (probably tomorrow,) I'll get started on this. I'll let you know once I'm ready for some help. One thing that would be really helpful is if someone could help with spriting. I already know I'll need sprites for most well-known CP members. There might have been one for Blizz floating around somewhere; I don't remember for sure. Music would also be most welcome. As for scripting, I'll see exactly what I need before roping anyone into this, so they don't have to sit around waiting.

Subsonic_Noise

I must obviously be a playable character :V:
Seriously though, awesome concept. For the get skills, if you really want to make them based on 4chan, you could make the skill generate a random number, and if it's a get (doubles etc.) it would have a specific effect depending on the get.
Also, you could make the dungeons in the game other forums, and the last one would be 4chan itself, obviously with the most confusing and disturbing enemies.
I'd help out with the music, I just need to check how many projects I'm already helping with so I can eventually chancel one of them - I don't want to overdo it. xD

Silentknight72

Can I be an NPC/Villain?

Cool Story,

PM me when you have this about 50% done so I can make a sprite of myself. xD

Fallen Angel X

I might sprite, maybe. Also, a good villain would be Dart >:3 kinda... he might be a bit too incompetent for that though.

Subsonic_Noise

Of course, RoseSkye and Computerwiz need to be in this as well, CW will of course be the wannabe villian who always fails and Rose will be the epic troll he once was.


WhiteRose

Dart actually was the villain in my original plan for the game. I'll probably keep him in that position, but I'll need to do a little more research so I can portray him accurately. Anyway, I've made most of the database (classes, skills, items, etc.) and am ready to begin on the game itself, so now is the time for people to sign on. The main thing I need at the moment are sprites, and music would be nice too. Also, does anyone have any ideas as to how to map this? I'm open to suggestions. I'll edit the first post to include a list of people assisting with the project.

Aqua

Maybe map the forum "network" as how you see it? :x

WhiteRose

Hmm... Sounds conceivable. Any suggestions on a tile set? I'm probably going to have to ask someone to help me make a custom one.

G_G

OMG I'm gonna be the fan girl for game_guy, he's so hawt!

The not so kidding joke aside, I'd love to see this game. If you need any scripting assistance I may be able to help. Recently I've been scripting in rmxp a lot more lately.

SBR*

Can I be an NPC too? Also, maybe you could call the classes 'avatars', and the... idk... stats(?) 'signatures' :P. I might make a map or two, if you want to :urgh:.
