Gamemode Stronghold - beta this evening?(CET)

[Vibe]

Wonderful.

[ShinySpoons]

So, no upkeep, but there is a gold limit on what one can spawn with. Upgrading buildings increase the gold limit, allowing one to equip better equipment.

Does that sound right?

[Vibe]

Actually, when I think about it, this gametype reminds me of Savage 2. Or Natural Selection even.

[Fluffy_Muffin]

What bugs me are 3 things.

60 min rounds? :S

Can the dummy be shot? That would kinda suck, you build your castle for 50 min and an sneaky enemy archer shoots down your dummy

Will there be a system to prevent dummy rushing at the start?

[Digglez]

Looks good although I think 90 minutes is a bit long especially when resolute defenders may get bored with no incentive to defend objective.

Why target dumbie and not an actual NPC like DTV?  That loses armor/shows blood as they take damage.  Perhaps even let you lead them around to move them to safer spots.

[Vibe]

The dummy should instead be a shrine of chadzius. Blood sacrifice restores HP!

[Corrado_Decimo]

seems really interesting... like a warcraft III (or RTS) mode. build the base, gather key points, upgrade units... i like it!

[Corwin]

This sounds like an amazing new thing that would encourage teamplay. I can't wait to try it with my teammates.

[Vibe]

I have a question. If you take a look at Natural Selection of example, there's only one commander who builds stuff. How many, who and how will it be determined who is allowed to build stuff?

[Different]

Damn,  my no living will start with this

If a round is 60-90 minutes, it would seriously suck to lose a few times in a row (exp wise).

For gold it wouldn't be such a problem, as no upkeep = 50 gold/minute -> 3000 gold an hour. Not much, but at least you didn't lose anything.

Other than that, if I'm level 30, I would still play this, as it looks like it could be epic fun.

[Jarlek]

This looks SO FUN and SO COOL the only bad thing I can think of is: Will it be too difficult to teach new players? Maybe make a tutorial movie or something? RipperX can narrate!

[VVarlord]

Maybe make a tutorial movie or something? RipperX can narrate!

hahahah

[LLJK_Korea1]

I guess the ammount of bubble gum and rubberbands needed for making this gamemode will just fry database servers and cRPG dies with it
