Post by: BlackxBird on November 16, 2015, 10:43:58 pm
seems like u guys answer questions *_*. Here we go
1st: will there be a new class/new classes?
2nd: What will that conquest (that new strat where u build castles n'shit, or was it stronghold?) be like? I mean, will it be like a map? btw if u do it nerf polish and russians already now plz!
5th: Will you do a mechanic overlord guide when the game comes out? So we normal people will finally understand that game totally? like I play for 4K hours now and still sometimes Im getting suprised.
edit: 6th: Will there be some sort of competitions but the normal public servers and that new strat?
edit: 7th: will there be finally normal water? Like water u can swim in?
edit: 8th: We know now who they are in reallife, but who are they ingame? I mean like, most of u were playing, but I have no clue who u guys are... but fin and thomek :D
edit again. gotta shorten that.
I should actually put this in my description, but fuck it: Reset strat. just end it.

oh ye btw keep the work going, chadz and fin don't get used to the foreign beer, I hope u will stay loyal to our beer :D

Fin : "I'll run and annoy people". Best quote 2k15.  :lol:



My question would be, how hardcore will be the game ? Fighting-wise, is it going to be built on realism rather than more or less arcade-ish mechanics ? Will it look like cRPG in some ways with the possibility to have a character able to tank a crap load of hits, to run faster than everyone else, or to be able to have an indestructible shield ?

Great dev blog. I like the way it was produced.
It sort of felt like "The Office" (the TV show).
I hope the ironic/akward feel was intentional :D - Either way, good job!

Also a very simple question:
What is it exactly you are working on right now. Is it what was known as "Melee: Epic" (the version that was described here (http://forum.melee.org/melee-announcements/melee-battlegrounds-what's-happening-and-the-pivot/)) or "Melee: Battlegrounds" that was pitched in the Kickstarter?

The different names going around makes it a bit confusing. Although from all the latest news it seems like you are making the above mentioned "Epic".

chadz "we are building a game we want to play, a game we would enjoy playing" solid statement really shows your passion to make quality over just a cash grab game, well said.

BUT THEN: when asked what class they would play...
"troll"
"axe thrower"
"merchant"
"im the guy who will shoot you in the back"
"probably the guy that will run away"
"whatever annoys other players"
"ninja"

etc etc etc. lol nothing but trolly game killing playstyles, literally only one person said sword and board \ legit melee.

A MOSTLY MALE DEVELOPER TEAM BUILDING A MEDIEVAL GAME...AND ONLY ONE PERSON ON THE ENTIRE TEAM HAS A LEGIT MELEE CLASS ( LOL AND ITS THE FUCKING CHICK ROFL )

When there are admins which were relyable in crpg for years, why would anyone not want to have them as admins? I mean like, if u go for new admins and in the beginning there would have to be a shitton of them, wouldnt it be hard to control them? Like, if they are all new and dunno what to do wouldnt it be shit for the community? Id rather have some old faces instead of some newbies who dunno how to do shit. (Even though most eu admins hate me lol)

But really though, they are team member just like anyone else, wouldn't work any other way.

Is serr lobbying hard enough for a squatting animation? If not, employ more slavic people.

There will be ninjas, krems, beards, bellies, bulges but not a single notion of female characters and specific customization options. That girl must feel very alone among you nerds, even though chadz is the sexy one (Fin looks like a teddy bear). Maybe she has secret crush on chadz, you never know with them interns.

Of course there will be girls/women in the game. Maybe they too will have a belly slider, and that would actually be quite uncommon and radical when it comes to videogames. Beards on women? If there is a market, why not?

And Leshma, please leave our interns out of your public fantasies. It just ain't right and fair.

Sorry boss, old habits die hard. You know very well that the new place will be squeaky clean, purged from such bad influences, up to your publishers standard. Won't need to worry about that for much longer :wink:

I think you might get a fiddled reputation bar on new forum, after all.  :?

I see that you've been forced to advertise the city and take on local recruits and I wonder if the game will also be set in Belfast now? :P

In other news, I have to say, somehow, chadz has developed a very noticably less gloomy accent since the Kickstarter campaign. Maybe he picked it up accidentally from having to talk to people irl, but maybe...
