my own shooter

[hardcoal]

One of my dreams since quake 2
is to make my own shooter.

im not totally pleased with any of the games today on the market.
each one has something missing.
some new excitement and uniqueness is what i wish for.
with all the graphic power and CPU power everything still looks the same for first person shooters.
no body makes new things or new excitements.
many compromise on skills and make average games.
quake 2 is one of the only games

that you need hours to practice on one type of jump for example

let me give you one or two ideas i had

I like the double jump of unreal and the movement of quake 2
in some way to join them together sounds to me ultimate.

another idea was to use two mice when on the left hand
u got a special big mouse with keys like W A S D for movement
so you can rotate the head and the gun separately

well that’s just two ideas in brief
and its the tip of the ice for me

maybe one day it will come that ill be able to make
my own games

That would be cool i love the double jump from unreal....

[napalmdeath]

or quadruple jump if you use the mutator

*ponders about a new feature in IWM, or replacing the Jump Boots with the ability to do crazy jumps off walls such as ones from Matrix and running up walls and such*

Hardcoal, learn C and the implementation of DirectX or OpenGL; you'll be fine after that.

if anything, i'd say lose the magic carpet.. i hate that thing! (no offense)

[James]

Yah paril the magic carpet is kinda nnoying..lol

[Paril]

What's wrong with it? It's fun.

[napalmdeath]

i dunno, i just don't like it.. and when you fly around, it obscures your view quite a bit which really gets annoying. especially when trying to fly over someone and aim, but unable to see thru the carpet.. etc, etc

[Paril]

Hmm. I could make the carpet only seeable to others maybe..
