Pre-0.9.9 / Re: [E l AoMr l 83% l YASD] First Try on New Beta

Really?
Do I have to press enter on it? Cause when I press 'l' and arrow over, it just says something like, stairs to next level.

Requests For Features / Re: Challenge modes ideas - old and new.
« on: January 08, 2008, 14:28 »
This isn't an idea for a challenge mode, per-se, but I think it would be cool if, since we have all of these new unique items, if there was a way to earn them through challenges. Someone mentioned before the Call of Duty 4 level-up system, and haveing played that game I thought the challenge ideas were fantastic.
So, say you implement a set of Pistol, Shotgun (all three types counted), Chaingun, Plasma Weapons (Rifle and BFG), and Melee Weapon challenges. Each would have three levels of proficiency, based on kills, and at the max level (a rediculous amount of kills) you get access to a special version of the weapon at start. These weapons would be chosen from a list, and runs using those weapons wouldn't get saved to player.dat. Here's what I imagine they'd look like:
Pistol Mastery: Rank- Novice
- Kill 200 Former Humans with a Pistol
- Kill 100 Imps with a Pistol
Shotgun Mastery: Rank- Intermediate
- Kill 100 Hell Knights with a Shotgun
- Kill 50 Barons of Hell with a Shotgun
Chaingun Mastery: Rank- Expert
- Kill 50 Spider Masterminds (snerk) with a Chaingun
- Kill 50 CyberDemons with a Chaingun
Melee Mastery: Rank- Master
- You have access to the Power Sword, Daemon's Bane
Obviously some work would be needed to make it "balanced", but I think it'd be a fun reward for players who persevere.

« on: January 08, 2008, 14:11 »Uh, but that would definitively break the player.dat format :/. Add it to the bugtracker, but without a specific version -- we'll implement that when breaking the player.dat will become needed.
When we add more challenges, won't that break player.dat?

He's the first brave soul to have ventured into Hell...
--------------------------------------------------------------Well, well, well. I totally missed Beta 3, but I thoroughly enjoyed this run. Let's look at the highlights:
*- Oh. My. God. 16 DR. Holy crap. I don't think there's a floor material that even does that much damage. To bad we have min damage of 1. Grr. :(
**- This was a fairly easy victory, which surprised me since most of my yasd's occur here. Of course, pistols are broken...
***- I can explain this. Really. I was looking for Hells Armory. Yet another run with no Armory. Did you... remove it from the game? Please say it isn't so.
****- Ugh... more armory searching here...
*****- This made me feel better. A little. Cleared level 17 and found an invuln globe near the exit. Had a nuke, but figured I wouldn't get a second opportunity to nuke something and live. So I did it. Interestingly enough, if you nuke a level that has a pain elemental on it, the three souls it spawns are not nuked. I had to do a little clean up before the level was clear.
******- Ow. That's all I have to say here. My good red armor was broken on floor 19, but I figured my second red armor would save me in the mortuary. I didn't find the mortuary, what I found was this... pain... room. I mean, 8 arachs? OW! I don't stockpile phases, run mode wasn't dodging enough plasma bursts, and even closing to melee would still leave 7 arachs at my back. I was royally screwed here. Oh, and I didn't remember my med-packs untill... yeah, right now. Sigh. Filing this one under YASD... dammit.
Here's a question: Does wizkid increase the number of mods that can be added to armor and boots? I was going to check, but berserker doomguy took over and got himself killed before I could.

Requests For Features / Re: Unchain Intuition
« on: January 07, 2008, 10:32 »
Here's a thought. At int3, take away the monster sense. That's the main reason we have it chained up. I don't even bother with levers anymore, because you need 4-5 levels to make int useful and prevent me from drowning myself in acid. (2 for cat-eye, 2-3 for int) Those are levels I could be spending on something else in an AoB or Mr game (like TaN or IM or HR)
Hell, you could even change it to a two level trait by getting rid of the first level of it.
Just my 2 copper pieces.

Speed and Dodge huh?
I get hit enough as it is. In order to compensate for this I'd have to blow a trait on hellrunner early on.
If we're going to "balance" the game, why don't we let enemies use health globes/berserk packs/armor shards/nukes, since they can already use med kits, armor, and any weapons they may find. :(
Sorry. I really don't like this idea.

Jet Boots:
'Dave had to be joking when he told you about boots with rockets in the heel, right? Sure, you'd be fast, but you'd go flying at the slightest knock!'
Increase knockback by 4 (Make it much likelier to get knocked back, and to get knocked back further).
Increase movement speed by 50%
Same protection as steel boots.
Where have I heard this before... OH YEAH!

Hoverboots. You float six inches above the ground. You cannot be harmed by acid or lava.http://forum.chaosforge.org/index.php?topic=1169.0
However, since you can't brace yourself, your knockback skyrockets. Even a pistol shot will send you careeming into a wall. It'd be frigging hilarious. XD

Here's a list of items available for Uniquing (it's a word now, so there).
Weapons:
Knife
Pistol
Shotgun
Combat Shotgun
Double Shotgun
Chaingun
Plasma Rifle
Rocket Launcher
Armor
Boots
My submissions? From the Space Marine Surplus Store:
Bolt Pistol (Pistol): Increased Damage, Speed. Slower reload. Small explosion radius. (Bolt weapons in Warhammer 40K fire explosive bolts) Uses 10mm ammo.
Storm Bolter (Chaingun): Same as above, but fires as chaingun. XD
Adeptus Astartes Mark IV Power Armor: 4 damage reduction, but increased HP (longer time before it gets destroyed) and faster movement speed.
For the bolt gun explosion radius, I recommend the following size:
Oh, and make these unique items green. I don't think we have any green items. :)

« on: December 29, 2007, 08:31 »
I'd say don't let the mods or phases stack, and keep inventory slots the same. Unstacking medkits is the main reason mods get left behind, stackable meds removes this irritant. And 2-3 per stack sounds fine to me, with 4-5 from the backpack increase.
Just my $.02.
