Shattered Destiny Online!

I would've made an mmo if I could figure out how to set it up. I don't see much wrong with the maps. I've seen worse that's all I'll say. the town or city screen shots seem ok but the wilderness screen shots need a little more enviroment to it.

What annoys me the most is to see some one attempt something and everyone thinking it's dumb. I get that and actually from the warcraft III community thats about all I got. But this sort of critisism is not nessesary without telling them what they should do to make it better. Another thing that annoys me. You say well this and that sucks and dont even say why. and the last thing that annoys me is people constantley complaining about the same thing. Ones enough. 2 toleratble. 3, getting on your nerves. 4 making you mad. ect. Please if some ones already stated something dont state it again. unless you have your own unique comment

What I suggest you do with your maps, 1st off in the towns make a place on the map that looks like a road. Or a path people walk on (like a side walk or something) 2nd on your outside maps, you need more trees, and grass. I mean tall grass, and to touch it up put some random plants. like small flowers. And random base grass. I use 2 grass tiles to vary the grass making it look more natural then repeditive.

The mapping was all? ok well I hope to see this project taken alittle more seriously. Everyone's projects should be taken seriously. just becuase it doesn't look like much now doesn't mean it won't be the next big thing.

Good luck!

Uh, y'know why this project isn't being taken seriously? Because it doesn't deserve to be.

I mean, everybody asked him to put up this one piece of info: What the races are, and what they're called. Has he? No. Has he had more than enough of a chance? Yes. Will he? Probably not.

Not every project needs to be taken seriously, because if they were, then lots of people would be disappointed when they become buried in the forums.
 
I guess you're right. But what it doesnt deserve to be is treated like it needs to be buried into the forums until it does. I'm just saying give him a chance, even if he releases a demo and it's not good, that doesn't mean it's over.

er... well I might be the only one posting in this topic that thinks this, and it might be my lack of experience with RMXP games... but I thought the screens looked good? *looks around*


Youve obviously never seen a good game.  Go check out Quintessene.

Anyone else find it ironic that someone like xeph is bitching about sucky games? Take your own advice.. fine line between constructive criticism and having sand in your vagina.. guess what side of the line you are on? Susie.

From what I've seen, he's been given a chance and chosen not to seize it.

I dunno, maybe he's able to take a more objective look at a game that's not his and see the suckiness in the games of others, while blind to his own epic badness. Critique is weird like that. Furthermore, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that you would have something to say about someone's terrible art, even if you yourself aren't that stellar of an artist.

You know this assuming that just because I show my comic art that I am a bad artist... I'll give you that. We all have opinions, but once again.. we dont have to pay for this game.. (which isnt released yet) and I understand that his game has flaws (even if it isnt released yet). Yet, he has no right to speak for everyone.. which I hate when people do that.

"Noone cares"
"We dont like it"
"Do us all a favor and.."

Who elected you monarch of I dont give a fuck land..?

For everyone that has a bad opinion, there may be two that has a good opinion. Yet, I know that the ones that passes the line of having constructive criticism, and just goes into harsh criticism.. it will be the most cutting. Yet, people like retards cant understand that some people when recieving a cut (even to the ego) they either pull back to regroup or lunge forward on offensive. When this happens.. usually other retards pull out of the woodwork and attack the weakened person with the group .. .as wolves on weakened prey. When you're part of a pack feeding on someone.. its hard to realize they're point of view.. which I am always looking to.

Its not that hard to say..

"Hey, you didnt give that much info"
"Hey, work harder on ..."
"That's good, but, ...."

I already know people are vicious at heart.. I already know that this statement isnt going to change anything, but calm down if you arent able to be a mentor.
 
Well zech04, I'm glad you're atleast trying to do this. But one reason that no one is taking this seriously is because you write like a 8 year old. I don't know anything about you, but from reading what you posted, I hope English is a second language, or you really need to slow down and re-read things before you post them.

Sorry if it came off as dissing your art. I was just trying to allude to the phrase "I don't know art, but I know what I like," without using a cliche. What I'm getting at is this: I'm an amateur writer, and I could never dream of being published. However, I believe I'm totally entitled to critique a story that makes no sense, and correct someone's grammar. Just because someone isn't great at something doesn't mean that they can't tell when something's not very good.

Also this. Definitely also this.
 
I think you have a good idea...but for this game to be of any worth your going to have to match or better what's already out there.

I'm not sure you're aware that this thread is effectively an advertisement for your game. If you don't present something well, odds are that not many people will be interested. If you type like a brain-damaged chimp when trying to convince me to play your game, I'm going to assume that you have the same lazy, half-assed attitude toward creating anything. By the poor punctuation in your one line of dialog, the barren maps, and the defensive attitude toward criticism, I'm inclined to believe that this assumption is correct.

Hey, instead of complaining about people criticising your thread, why don't you fix the feckin' thing!!

Seriously, you've had more than enough time to spruce this thread up, but your haven't done anything about it.

Give me a good reason why I shouldn't call Atemu in here, as this topic is basically nothing but people bitching at you, and them bitching back.
 
I just said I was sorry jeez calm down go ahead and get him to delete it cause I think it's the right thing to do anyway since it's a waste until I get atleast 50% done people are just gonna b!tch at it.

ughh also i said TEST MAPS these where just to show the systems and trust me they look way better now with new skins and added stuff so they are barren read before you make fun of that part.
 
Don't put crap in your thread if you damn well know it's crap! It's like we've said about your atrocious spelling and grammar: This is an advertisement for your project. Make us want it! Impress us! I definitely don't want anything from someone who types like a rat rolling all over the keyboard and can't be arsed to create a decent bullshot before posting teasers.
 
I've really wanted to make an MMO.  If you need help with anything (Even making your thread better lol) then I can do it.

Mapping and in-game stuff I can't work on until January since I've used up three Trials already and I don't have anymore computers to download it onto lol.

I can post some of my work if you want.

The story was like what? Two lines long?!, No character, environments or plot development. Not even basic concept art, no storyboard.
Ugh...
Since when have MMOs had plot development?

And even characters play teensy minor roles.  I still don't know any major characters in World Of Warcraft and I played it for a year and a half.

Uh, Atemu is girl, you know.  ;)

Anyway, nobody friggin' cares how far into development your project is. We just want you to fix up the goddamned THREAD!

Seriously, you haven't anything with this atrocious thread, even though everyone has told you to fix up our grammar, spelling, and put up some more friggin' INFO!!

How can you not get this through your thick skull?! We don't care whether you're even working on the damned game, at the moment, we just want to to change the composition of this thread from 'horrible', to 'not horrible'. Got it, now?

The fact that you can play online in no way excuses him from actually putting something in the damned game, or even in the thread. WoW has a lush, vast, ever-changing world full of bloodsucking quests that take at least an hour to complete. People put their kids through college making sure that WoW and most other MMOs remain addictive. You can have your very own character created from many, many, many different parts. A game made in RMXP can't realistically provide an experience quite like WoW, partially due to graphical restrictions.

This thread, this game, has no legs to stand on. It's a sad, wriggling worm on a hot sidewalk. We've been given nothing to expect of this game save for empty screencaps and a lot of whining.
