Re: TIB: JOIN RPG COMBINED EFFORT 85
No offense, but I think this is one of the stupidest project idea's I've ever
heard. The whole
thing is crazily unrealistic. First of all, group projects never work.. Daedalus,
the Flight Simulator,
and more have all failed. This is because you just can't have 4 people try to do
the same thing at the
same time. Second of all, the idea of cities makes no sense. You can't program
a city and then hope
to integrate it with someone elses city. Also, it makes no sense. What RPGs do
you know where you
just go between 2 cities trading stuff? Third, Ti-Basic is NOT the ideal platform
for 85 RPGs...
Use ASM.. Ti-Basic is too slow and way too big to support an extensive RPG. 4th,
an RPG project
involving me and someone else is already underway in ASM, with animated fight
sequences, 32
monsters, 8 dungeons, and a 128x128 overworld map. (Yeah, that's over 10000 places
you can go on
the map). And lastly of all, no one wants to go to some stupid web chat channel.
IRC already has over 40
regular users who talk about calculators every day.
Well, good luck!
