Singleplayer RPG title?

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 It's early days. But I've been thinking about why DW is still alive.. and it's because the core combat loop really is good. Turn-based physics-based car combat works. A singleplayer story-driven RPG version (with some sandbox elements) could do well. Less niche than an MMO. I'm considering the same funding source that got me some some $ to make The Necromancer's Tale. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Jan 16, 2021, 7:55 pm

*Ninesticks* The Wombles Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Marshals + Rule Council Posts: 3,371 Joined: Apr 11, 2008 I would agree that the core combat loop is good, I would suggest you could do far more with it were you minded to - something more detailed and nuanced would be marvellous. BTW - Deset Blood is good - as long as you intend to stick with the usual post-apoc desert world setting :-) - and of course Dark Future is no doubt legally protected to the hilt by GW. ......................... vet wv marshal pvp4 community pvp20,1,0 Posted Jan 17, 2021, 9:09 pm

I'm considering the same funding source that got me some some $ to make The Necromancer's Tale. That game I reference earlier has both the storyline version and a sandbox, which is cool. FWIW I like "Roads of Evan" ......................... vet combatL1 ped1 paintladder semiprocombat ped2 wv pvp4 pvp1 gwped paintball pvp3 pvp5 slay2013 marshal circuit2 combat1 e2g raceL1 gwextrav gateautumn pvp2 triangle1 Posted Jan 17, 2021, 10:26 pm

Joel Autobaun Joels Bastards Darkwind Guru Deathrace Mafia Faction Group: Sinbinned Posts: 4,598 Joined: Nov 10, 2008 I think you do the "War on wheels" (or change to Wheels of War for this) But then you make the second title near your story. Ie. War on Wheels: The Bloody Caravan. If its a hit ..make more like that. ......................... vet northernsummer deathrce1 raceL1 deathrceL1 ww ped1 sssc paintball semiprocombat ped2 e2g gwextrav gwped combat1 paintladder elmsautumn gateautumn wv race1 combatL1 pvp1 pvp5 pvp4 zom pvp3 circuit1 pvp2 circuit2 circuit3 ss2fl67 slay2013 storm2013 geek triangle198,98,31 Posted Jan 18, 2021, 2:08 pm

Except for the loners that treat it mostly as a single player grinding game, It attracts some odd folks  Not a great fan of desert blood, sounds a bit generic. Otherwise I agree with Joel, War on Wheels: "Story related term" or something similar should work. ......................... vet wv zom gateautumn deathrceL1 elmsautumn pvp1 pvp2 sssc raceL1 e2g combatL1 santa1 pvp3 gwextrav ww circuit32,18,0 Posted Jan 19, 2021, 11:59 am

I expect I'd want to love a singleplayer version, but without a competitive AI I doubt it'd hold my interest. I think to me the DW's strengths are: - PPvE: the combat is still held up by AI issues, but with the right group of people coop is a blast. - PvP: PvP in a permadeath game is always nerveracking, but this is where the DW gameplay loop really shines. ......................... vet wv ww sssc paintball semiprocombat gwped combat15,6,0 Posted Jan 21, 2021, 2:35 am

Iron Wraith Iron Wraiths Darkwind Guru Civs Faction Group: Members Posts: 818 Joined: Feb 2, 2009 In a single player version there can be no PVP. As the title of this thread is about Single Player please don't derail it by diverting it to a discussion of the merits of PvP. We already have a game for that. Some of us actually like the idea of having the option to go fight without being held up by other players schedules. The AI is plenty good enough for the majority of fights. If the mech skill wasn't so effective in resurrecting dead components it would be necessary to be a bit more precise in fighting for salvage which in turn would make fights more challenging. ......................... vet wv raceL1 deathrceL1 Posted Jan 21, 2021, 8:11 am Last edited Jan 21, 2021, 8:12 am by Iron Wraith
