I have a idea for a mmorpg of oddworld where u ever work with the glukkons as a slig or something or a muddokon. you should be able to travel around the world with your mates find new places and discover

playing as a muddokon u must rescue or your brothers

and the glukkons and sligs and others must havew to take land to build new facilitys on.

Yeah, hasn't Hand of Odd sorta been delayed?

I think the topic creator is talking about more of an MMOG, not a strategy game like Hand Of Odd.

A massive multiplayer Online Roll playing game...

Same here.

sounds great

Xavier 04-11-2005 11:49 AM

perhaps OWI will sell the idea and the whole concept to some one...
I bet I'll loose hours on that game then

I'm not quite sure what kind it was planned to be

Paco_the_Taco 04-11-2005 07:27 PM

I'd prefer an MMOAG or MMOARPG. Oddworld isn't meant to be turn-based.

Cloverfield 04-12-2005 02:43 AM

MMORPGs aren't turn based. FFXI isn't turn based and that's a MMORPG, even though the rest of the FF games are. You're thinking of traditional RPGs which have turn based battling systems. There are many other kinds of RPGs such as action RPGs, etc which are more real time fighting. RPG generally refers to any kind of game where you need to build up your stats and character in order to proceed.

I think an Oddworld RPG would be great, but a MMORPG ... well I'm hesitant. Simply because I really aren't into all this online gaming stuff. And also I just don't have the time to play games that "go on forever".

Oh, and try to reply to "why" you like the idea instead of just saying "it's great", etc. Your posts are really just spam.

Well, FFXI is semi-turn based in that your characters attack only when the game says they can. I guess I should have worded this differently. And my reson for liking the idea is because whenever I play an Oddworld game, I think "This is cool, but it would be so much cooler if these personalities were other players."
