Imagine stepping of the bathysphere into the great new city of Rapture. ( Before everything went nuts )
Being welcomed by a NPC butler, leading you to your loxurious suite where you could customize your charecter? On the way you'd meet an array of different vending machines. ( they will work as the main shopkeepers and salesmen of wares in the gamemode )
Yeah. Basicly I'm trying to make a pre-apocalyptic Bioshock gamemode. The hud will be clean, and there will be no classes. Ofcourse security personell can be given surtain priviledges. But otherwhise you define your own character. Ofcourse you can also choose to run a store. You can sell arms illegally, ofcourse these will be cheaper than the one you buy in the vending machines. But they will also be illegal, and some might be defect and explode in your face. This depends on the price ofcourse, you pay for quality in Rapture.
You can also sell drinks, or run a resturant ofcourse, since people want something else than vending machine food once in a while:P
This will also be easy as pie! No bloody HUD's where you have to arange the wares. You simply talk to a NPC to order home some wares, you wait for a bit. And then you get your shipment.
Ofcourse there are those looking for action.
There you can choose to join Atlas, in his war against Mr. Ryans tyrany.
Or you can choose to join the law force. Or you can just be a normal hood, trying to make a living by stealing.
Basicly, in this gamemode. I'm looking to replace HUD's with NPC's. If you want stuff. You talk to a NPC, and order it. Wether it's liquer or weapons.
Well that's pretty much what I have so far.
I'm hoping to get some mapping done, once I get home from this wretched summer home. Then I'll post some updates here. (Wich will be in DEV textures until I get a decent texture artist xD )
Well I hope you'll want to contribute to this project.
What I need so far is:
A decent mapper.
Hopefully a good modeller or two. Able to replicate props and other models from Bioshock.
A texture artist.
And all the bloody concept art you can spare:P
And ofcourse a Lua programmer to make the gamemode.
Please tell me what you think.
Edit:
A list of what we need and what we have:P
