Ok we will talk to you soon.
have a Good day

Hello we have more space for programmers post to fill.
If you are experienced in c-script you welcome, Need more lite-c than c-script. Please leave a PM your interested.

i see lots of eve similarities. sorry, i'm not looking to contribute, but perhaps it would be helpful for you to look at eve online (which by the looks of things i'm guessing you've already done) and think to yourself: realistically, will this make money?

it's a great start, and a great idea for a hobby game, but don't expect to make money out of a space game that looks just like a well-established and successful mmo. hopefully you'll have more up your sleeve than re-inventing eve (rhymes).

Well i did see eve, and its a good game, and i can have good source ideas from there, but im not hopping to clone it.

My argument is like:

Football games, are all the same , and that does not prevent the game industry from releasing more football games, the thing is that they are all similar to each other, but that dont make it the same.

And we are putting more things , and also ina different way of eve, also we think about gameplay and gaming experience in a different complexity than EVE does.



There is a car, you like alot, ok, for their concepts. But then will that mean that no more cars will be done, with the same concepts, becase there is already one like that? we dont need to think like that. Similarities is everywhere, its not bad to have same concepts from good games.

absolutely, but mmos are different. a huge part of their appeal is their community. so if two mmos are very similar, people will be pulled to one or the other, usually the one with a bigger userbase.

go for it, by all means, as it will be a good game-making experience. but if i were you i would try to separate it from eve as much as practical.

Yeah we discussed this as well, and we will have to start very small, thus the gameplay will already be different alot. The goals for small multiplayer games are far more clear and less extensive than that of an MMO like Eve.

Besides, I only have commercial so that's a max of 8 clients for me .

i dont understand the max of 8 clients, you can have more, you just need to handle things differently. Using a plugin gsnet for example, you can expand, to a mmo.

My ideas is a small multyplayer, but my goal is to reach a huge community, and even rent servers to run this.

Eve its too much complex sometimes, and boring in some parts. And im just getting some ideas from eve, i mean we all do that, get ideas from other games.

My goal is to create a game, with much more gameplay, and fun. IM not worried.

Yes, true.

in theory yes, but gstnet supports only 16 clients. i just thought you should now

yes but if he makes his enet plugin, then he can just write it whatever way he needs, thats something im working on right now.... if i can ever get visual studio 2005 to work consistantly on my pc.... (for some reason I run it once or twice then when i restart it it tells me I have invalid license data and that i need to reinstal... what a waste of money).
