Legolover-361 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 I was thinking the exact same thing when I played through Nightfall Incident a couple of months ago. There could be PvP, team against AI, that'd be fun to play. I'd love to talk with you about getting some ideas for this if you're interested.I would definitely be interested.

Matt5327 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Sorry if someone mentioned this (most of this forum was TL;DR for me), but what I would really like to see is the original MNOG remastered in real-time 3D. It's actually something I've started, but unlikely to come to fruition (I have exactly zero experience in game development, esp. programming). I feel like the first MNOG is one of reasons Bionicle really became popular, and most of us remember it with an incredibly sense of nostalgia. To experience a remastered version, imo, would be breathtaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UltraHau Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Quick update on licensing: It turns out that character representations aren't covered by copyright law, so someone could legally commercially use the artwork for B:CoD as long as they take out any trademarked parts that may or may not be in the artwork (names, logos, etc...). As long as the rest of the team is fine with this (assuming you guys are still interested - it's taken me a while just to get this far, due to lack of free time), I'll switch the artwork license to CC-BY-SA like originally planned.

That aside, a little bit of code still needs to be written, but artwork is still the major roadblock at the moment.The next step? Either 1) finding someone who has 3D modeling skills, or 2) getting the original B:CoD team back together - like I said before, I took a while to get the code to where it's at today, so a lot of interest from the other team members has been lost, in all likelihood.

No. We're aiming for Bionicle shooter, not Bionicle-themed shooter. Tahu's firesword would probably act primarily as a melee weapon, but you could use an ability to shoot a fireball, do a flamethrower thing, etc.2. Probably not.

We already have some customization planned (elements, weapons, masks, right?), so why not colors and piece styles and whatever else? Just have sensible defaults.As far as I can remember, you choose your element in the form of a character class; I think we had three Toa/Skakdi and three Vahki/Rahkshi per team? Weapons/masks would be a combination of field pickups and class defaults. I could see some Halo-style appearance customization, but it would be a much later feature because I'd imagine it would take a lot of work, both software and artistic, and it really doesn't add anything to gameplay.

Nocturnox Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I would like to see a game similar to Fire Emblem, like where you move your characters around on a field, and then battle the enemies when you're in range, but it's not a long lengthy battle sequence, just a quick animation showing what happens and the outcome, and a Janken weakness system, like what they added maze of shadows. This also allows alternate endings, because in Fire Emblem, when somebody on the team dies, they Die. And the ending is further determined by how many survive and what relation they have to one another. Quote PM me for a chance to have your own custom hero appear in a story I'm writing.

Cool, but I also see quite a few who want FPS, and I would not mind that either, so an engine I recommend that is freeware, it was made by Bungie and the Bungie community and it is called Aleph One, you can find it here.Engines and development are usually not a problem. The real issue with making a BIONICLE game is getting the graphics. The reason RPG Maker was so popular back in the FCG Golden Age was that tons of premade graphics were available. Not only were great-looking tilesets and terrain built into the program itself, but you could find hundreds of Matoran and Toa sprites on Brickshelf. The best part about those sprites is that they're low-res enough that you could easily tweak them to fit your own characters - even make some from scratch if you needed to.Similarly, you'll note that a lot of current FCG games (read: the only current FCG game, Bionicle Fighter) use the Rayg kit for detailed, recognizable side-scrolling graphics.When you get into 3D games, or even higher-res 2D games, there's a huge issue with graphics. Programmers aren't artists, and even if they can throw some models together, they can quickly become overwhelmed by the sheer volume of content they have to create. For a community of maybe 10 players, the effort just isn't worth it. Hopefully Call of Destiny will be an exception.Actually, that brings up a good point. We should make Call of Destiny's graphics fairly set-accurate and generic so that other people can use them - maybe it'll breathe new life into the FCG forum and inspire other 3D games.

Katuko Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Yes, I can attest that if it weren't for the kits available, my game wouldn't have gotten very far at all. I can sprite a bit - and lately I've been improving - but without Rayg as a base there likely wouldn't have been any nice BIONICLE graphics from me. I work best with references.

I've been following that project for a while - it's a great engine, but uses horribly-outdated technology (that's to be expected, since Marathon is almost 20 years old IIRC). That does make me think about using an already-made FPS engine (ioquake3, iodoom3, Darkplaces, etc...) instead of writing a FPS layer on top of a generic game engine, like I/we were planning on.Aside from suggesting things that have already been suggested, I already see people suggesting RPGs and that one could use RPG-Maker to do it. Cool, but I also see quite a few who want FPS, and I would not mind that either, so an engine I recommend that is freeware, it was made by Bungie and the Bungie community and it is called Aleph One, you can find it here.Actually, that brings up a good point. We should make Call of Destiny's graphics fairly set-accurate and generic so that other people can use them - maybe it'll breathe new life into the FCG forum and inspire other 3D games.Good idea - I'd like to see a lot more 3D fangames.That is true, however there are "scenario" makers for Aleph One that allows one to create maps and fill in their textures, there are a lot of them and I do recall Forge having every skin and texture available from the Marathon games. However if one were to get their hands on one of the "scenario" makers they could probably insert a self made texture they made themselves. I also saw someone get around the Terminal dialogue by making a person register as a terminal in Marathon RED. If someone wants it I'll look around for those links to said makers (I know they exist as scenario makers us them and have even downloaded a couple, but I do not have the links saved, however I am sure I could find them if it was necessary).

Fire Entity Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 This may be straying out into no-man's land, but I myself have worked a wee bit and would love to know if anyone else likes the idea of a Warcraft 3 map designed around Mata Nui. I read enough of the topic to know that several capable fellows have their hands full with Call of Destiny, but the World Editor for Warcraft 3 is workable to coders and non alike (though it does use its own language called JASS)If someone else would like to see the map I have I can post it, and otherwise if anyone wants to give ideas or help that would be cool too.-Fire Entity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bionicle fangame community is really small to begin with - so you have an extremely small number of people who would be interested in playing it, much less help you build it.Out of curiosity, why did you choose Warcraft 3 and not Starcraft 2, which is a slightly more mainstream game and has a better editor (and which I actually own not that I'm any good at it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
