Fall of Brittania Project recruiting and gathering ideas-all modders please read

[timur]

Okay, perhaps youve heard the news already, but general discussion and ideas forums have had a continually growing movement. And this movement is to push another, evem better mass update through by getting all the forum members together, and uniting to spread out the work, and so be able to quickly and efficiently create a mod so potent that TWI cannot resist the temptation to assimilate it into the game.

This idea, however, has been mainly troubled by the simple fact that nobody thinks the modding community can unite. I hope to prove them wrong; and once we gather enough support, it will snowball until the project is done, and KF is revoloutionized. And, working together, the community can acheive what each individual could not. So, I beg that you help; and we should follow in the footsteps of the original KF mod.

Now, I have been planning this for a while, and have rallied together enough support as to actually unite the forums in one, amazing moment. So, the question is: will you run and hide, fearing the idea and the rsponsibility? Or will you just come in and try to help. Every little shred of help is appreciated; even if you cannot assisst fully for some reason, I will take any help I'm given with gratitude.

So, please, help me, the forums, and KF. And help this idea materialize into something that can truly take our game to a whole new level. Thank you.




PS. if you have any better names for this project than 'Fall of Brittania' please notify me. And of you have any questions, post them here, or send them by private message, or even my steam account 'Tamerlane aka Cole'.

I'll probably join if you tell me what the goal we are trying 2 reach is...

Okay well you said alot about people working together but haven't actually said what you are working ON.

Is this a campaign of sorts or a new game mode. maybe even just a collection of maps that manage to interlink together????

I'm sure that many will help to create something great for a game that we all love but what is that something going to be?

How about "London Burning: The fall of a empire"

Sorry it took so long

Sorry it took so long

Sorry it took so long to answer. I hate my internet provider right now.

Anyways, this is basically a mod that takes many of the ideas that have gathered huge support, or just ideas that would make the game better altogether, combine it with a campaign, and polishing by TWI, followed by integration into the game. This would make it more than just a mod, but an actual peice of the game. It would give TWI an offer it cannot refuse, and wwill hopefully pull KF higher on their list of priorities, thereby both garunteeing the games upkeep, and making the game better for all players. This is a tad ambitious, and will likely be less then stated, depending on the support I get. If I get a lot of support, it includes more content; less help, and I have to cut more. So, in the end, you decide what it encompasses. No pressure

I like this idea, I'm in the process of completely redoing my Husk and flamethrower lab, maybe that could become part of this pack.

I can help with mapping, I'm fairly amatuer however I can make fully workable maps or help out with zombie volumes, and polishing existing maps so they play better(something I'm interested in).

Basically can work on maps collaberatively, I've also got one of my own which plays well however it needs some attention to detail and the trader doors need fixing.

I can do other things like photoshop work, skins, designs and so forth.

There are mines in KF and I made them blow zombies into the air, perhaps a coder could make it so that these mines can be placed manually and bought from the shop? They are basically Landmines and the explosion sounds from RO can be used. RO landmine I think. Alternately the survivors could be surrounded by a pre existing mine field for atmosphere.

Making the zombies slightly tougher or alternately the weapons weaker would be a great idea. I'm sure people are already on to this it cant be difficult, it would improve the gameplay immensely.

Glass is also quite fun as it can be used so that zombies burst out through it and or drop through destructible vents and so forth, I've played around with this by cutting it from existing levels. I feel that I am going to incorporate more vertical ways for zombies to drop into levels, because as I said I play a lot of great looking maps but the zombies can be predictable.

I'd be quite tempted to take a great looking pre existing level and work the zombie paths so that it plays well also. Theres a lot of levels which have potential to be so much better.

I wouldn't say I'm part of the modding community as I cannot mod to save my life. However, I shall help in ways that I can, should it be needed.

 

[No Glory]

All I'm good for is "public relations" and providing a server for beta-testing..... If either helps

 

[KingJoker]

seems to me like its more of a suggestion not a mod :/ if its a mod then a collection you'd have hell to get it white listed wouldn't you :O


From what im interpreting you want to make suggestions come together in a mod.

this died really quick

this died really quick

Or maybe it's still happening behind the scenes? ;p

 

[LordDeTracy]

It would be nice to see an update then, since the last posts where just saying "ill join", then nothing for a month.

 

[HaTeMe]

I actually joined this group but forgot about it because there was nothing going on lol.

The information you want!

The information you want!

Okay, it's time to fill you guys in!

I talked to timur a while back, and he's "appointed" me as the "Public Relations" (PR) guy. Along with some info on what to do as his internet connection is rather crappy (In his own words!).

The Goal for this entire project is to find Maps, mutators, and a few private things which are still being decided on. The requirement is that they are good for whitelisting and have been voted on by the people as being okay for the community.

They will all then be put into one file, and submitted to Tripwire in hopes that they will release it as part of their next patch.

-This would make the Killing Floor community the ultimate interactive community instead of waiting for things to happen-

I am currently making a group with more information, will post link soon.
