Title: Landing event #2
Post by: Izual on November 21, 2010, 07:39:20 pm
I'm pretty excited to post this topic about Landing Event 2 (First one here! (http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=5483.0)).

This event is about 100+ players that spawn, get gear and organize themselves in order to fight countless waves of orange men! It was, well, quite epic.

We'd appreciate feedbacks about:
- Event Ranger: This man supposed to kick teamkillers, make room on spawn point and give hints about tactics.
- Map setting: Ares will always be used as a map but with barrels and wooden poles, we can somehow modify it a bit.
- Enemies: Were they strong enough? Were they numerous enough? Were their weapons good? And their tactics? Etc.
- Players balance: Were you, players, strong and numerous enough? Had you enough weapons and ammo, and if not, which ones?
- Your own feeling: Victory feelings or depressed by the event?

Finnally, don't forget to upload your screenshots and videos full of epicness.

Very boring event for me, only rangers, simple combat nothing else. I've just lost time.
That's my opinion

I didn't like the event, there wasn't really any point in it, it was also pretty boring too and no rewards - I'm sure a lot of people can agree with me on this

Outfitters definetly should be modified. Support more builds. Maybe let players customize their eq themselves?

Small guns served very little point, maybe you should've added two levels, long range and CQC style?

the map was better yesterday......

the tactics of the enemies was better yesterday...  now they just rush :S... yesterday the move here then there, push here, then in another site blablablabla

:S and for me it was really pointless xD   just killing? not a single roleplaying thing? :3?...


the guns, ammo and armors, was good.... but.... just rangers, and not so much tactis...thats kinda boring XP



PD: excuse my bad english xD...

Maybe if you made the rangers give exp for dying it would be good

Some small background, why there are rangers spawning in numereous counts, what they do there, why players shoot them etc. would be a nice touch. ;)

Yeah, some Goal other then slaugther would be nice. Like, disable some device on the other side of the map, or boss fight. Also, maybe more varied enemies, but good to keep them to their role. Like CA snipers/Mutant melee with 1000 hp/Ranger armor big gunners, so they can be recognized.

Other then that, i dont think there can be much more made to improve this event. This event is all out based on combat system of fonline, and it is pretty simple one, and so it is hard to make an event based on it that is not pretty simple aswell or in a bit more straight forward language braindead. All you did was, reload, shot, reload, shot, get more ammo, reload, shot, reload, shot, get more ammo... and so for those 1-2 hours.

Like SurfSolar said, maybe some backround/story or goal/mission.

Yeah, why brainless NPC. Change map, two teams or more, some scenario, like team one protect a caravan that walks from one point of the map to another (give it 10 000 hp) and other team is to ambush it raider style with leather jackets. Reward= Remaining hp of the caravan cow (or whatever it would be) split on the defending team/5k caps split on attacker team if raiders suceed. Or no reward, who cares anyways.

Or, map with 4-5 Control points. Two Teams. Each start with one control point, and they fight over the remaining ones. 15 seconds to capture a flag unless distrupted by opposite team. All points can be taken but last point cannot be taken unless all other points are taken.

Or, a big map with various elements (small town or two small towns/forest/desert/animals) and one/two/three lifes each, low tier weapons. Some GMs maybe playing some role to create twists/enforce situations, maybe play mayors in each town. They want to fight eachother, players decide themselves what to do, they can join sides or... Well, a lot things can happen. Reward for doing something AND surviving should be something of desire.

Some ideas

Hey, control point is good idea: you talk to a computer to gain control. When you have control, your respawn move to be closer of the shock point. Some side control point don't give closer respawn, but give a special NPC who give better stuff.

i cant say much of the event because i couldnt play because of the lag (i have 0 fps  :'()

But maybe u should give it a little more than only combat. it could be a maze and we should get to the final but u could put in the maze Muties, Deathclaws, Centaurs, and other things. That could be great

Maybe some quiz? Or maybe some show? Like Jerry Springer one, or 10 questions 10 answers - who wins - not get's a bullet in the eyes

This has nothing to do with this topic.

Obviously I am.

For the others that keep posting irrelevant stuff (both off-topic and already suggested) : please use this topic (http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=3891.165).

Event Ranger - Great feature finnaly event which didnt turned into silly PKing
Map Setting - pretty fine for thys type of engagement. Maybe some capture areas can be included. Like best outfitters in dangerous areas which needs to be conquered.
Enemies - simple NPCs. They dont surprise neither dissapoint. All was same without any surprises.
Player ballance - there were simply too many players. But with so few events everyone wants to participate. ;-)
My own feeling - Simple event when u risk nothing and gain nothing. Killed few npcs died few times thats all.
