Gangs4Life modification for ET:QW

Shadowrun rocks. Brevik does not.

You actually mean a gametype like Hakuryu proposed with leaders that have to be protected but they are randomly selected?
If one dies, they lose and someone else becomes a target.

Sorry I had a quick read through the post too see if it had been thought of and i just read driveby. I was in a rush. Well great minds think alike.
I was thinking of a more open gameplay moving from building to building or just about anywhere, kind of hide n seek with guns. Bang your it!
You would probably have to mix this with some objectives too prevent camping.
The way Hakuryu says it kind of reminds me of SWAT, eventually attackers would move in unless you force them to sit in the cars.
Sorry Hakuryu, i will now go away and commit origami.

still think a mad max inspired mod would be great, you could make gangs/teams based on the ones seen in the films and try make some decent vehicle on vehicle combat with the cars and buggies used in the films with cross bow attachments to bust the tires on other cars and odd bits of metal to throw at other carsā€™ windshields to obscure their view when the glass shatters, assuming a first person view is used.

As for the idea being discussed, youā€™ll need alot of fresh ideas to make it work and not turn into what people are allready assuming, another gta clone. Hope you can pull it off.

How wude! :stuck_out_tongue:

Iā€™d love to see a ā€œgangā€ mod, Iā€™d always wondered if someone would do it as a mod for W:ET.

ā€¦but no GTA, pleaseā€¦

Thatā€™s what a mod has to be, something fresh and new :slight_smile:

I think it will look very nice on the ET:QW engine.

Cough Gameplay > looks. Cough
Looks are a plus, not the most important goal.

(Pytox) #27

More close-combat teamwork to complete the objectives you mean :smiley:

(Pytox) #28

Whatā€™s shadowrun? :???:

(Brevik) #29

Wiki

However, it looks like itā€™s already been doneā€¦

EDIT: Tbh, Iā€™d always envisaged Shadowrun to be grungier than thatā€¦

I also think Mad Max would make for a great mod, with one exception. There is hardly any ammo whatsoever in any of the movies, and if you gave people enough to actually gunfight, then vehicles would be taken down too easily. I doubt people would want to play a game where they had maybe 5 shotgun shells and that is it per spawn. I donā€™t think a good shooter could be made out of the movies, but maybe something different like a driving skill and teamwork game. Like escaping with the fuel truck in #2, but players must maneuver into position, jump on the fuel truck, and then perform something ala an objective to stop the truck maybe.

Thatā€™s the same how movies become bad when they are made from a game.
Thatā€™s the way I want to make it ,like your idea with that truck. :slight_smile: good driving skill and teamwork to complete the objective.

Try out XChat or something!
There are lot of irc-clients. It looks like u are setting behind a firewall or something.
btw, dude ur L is gone.

(Pytox) #36

itā€™s back in the channel :smiley:

(Dangles91) #37

I agree with nails.

Donā€™t do it.

It will be a complete waste of time, there are already so many mafia, mob boss, GTA styles games out there, there is no point in making a ā€œgantsaā€ mod for ET:QW.

Melee attack/weapons. would be useless it, it will be just like Battlefield series running at some one with a knife while they point an AK at you, personally i love when people try to do that just adds another kill to the list.

Please dont waste your time.

(k0k0nat) #38

I dont think so.
Should be a good project, when its done in a good form.
I mean, just look @ BF2 Apocalypse, one of the best mods ever.
Well ok, it isnt released, but ya it looks awesome :slight_smile:

:lol:

(Pytox) #39

Their has never been a (popular) FPS objective game with gangs ever so it wonā€™t be a clone from anything. :roll:

(Dangles91) #40

i just cant see an objective based gang mod working, melee weapons will be useless, running around in real life cars will look stupid.
there are just so many things that will be no good.

But good luck hope it works out for ya.
