MP MOD: (edit Non-Diablo MOD
Hey guys..
I've been thinking about it for some time now, also talked about it our IRC channel. Since I do not have much time to create mods, I will just put my idea here and you guys may set my dream to reality.
I know there is a mod for HL1 that has some similarity to it, but if this goes well, it sure will be a great mod for multiplayer.
The main idea here is pretty much like Diablo2 by the admired Blizzard North, just here the game will be played from first-person view.
You begin by creating a character and choosing its base skills. The mod should be able to save the changes of the character on specials servers or anything of that kind. The mod must also be able to resist character changes lost if one game crashes or when a player is exiting the game.
The mod will contain species of monsters and enemies that are controlled by the server's computer. After killing a monster, the character gets experience which will give it the ability to develope itself, rise its level and upgrade its skills and stats.
Another thing that should be available is forming parties that shares experience and battles other parties.
Would be necessary to create a big items system, that can be found on the ground, dropped by monsters and players or bought from NPCs (non playing characters). An item changing system should be built into the mod as well.
Those are most of the things I can think of at the moment. You guys can add some of your thoughts or ideas.
If you are serious about making a time-invested and well-designed mod, feel free to post your replies here and recruit other guys to help you making this mod a success.
Good-luck!
