1. you're a relatively new and inactive member

2. your opening statement doesn't tell anyone much

3. your grammar is horrible (no offense)

It will be an fantasy with little magic,more historical first person. sugestion?

I may be interested in learning more about your game. Just post away. At the moment, I don't have any suggestions for you because I have so little information.

PS. Of course you do live in Romania, so I should rather complement you on your English.

A link or some screens would be nice to start of at least

1 First person adventure and most important NO FEE!!

2 medieval time.

3 6 continents. 5 of them are unpopulated (players job) and one populated, the start continent (tutorial). Each of those continents is unique with their own type of forest, soil, animal to hunt, coastal fish, ore deposits.

4 Player can build their own buidings from wood, stone,Ships can travel to the world and trade or  can be wariors and concoer the other

5 it will have a sistem of skils-Farming, fishing, hunting, mining, smithing, fletching, Alchemy, Woodcuting, Firemaking, Strenght,Masonry, carpentry, Writing, Ranged weapons,Cooking, Thieving, Herbflore,dexterity, IQ, Diging, and a lavel bar with Faith and Courage.

6 Pvp.u can kill another player in his town if are not guards around.But if the player is cought he will be imrinoged until his trail.There in front of the Town citizen he can be released or killed.depends of the citizen wish.the ruler of the town decide in majority

7 After the player build a town and want to be defended must hire guard from the start town.Wiil be three types of guards - Swordsman, Halebardman, Archers. they to will have a skill system - Strenght, battle Experience, dexterity, Target, Disciplin, and some level bar with their Loyalty, Fatigue, Food, Water.

8 Player can set the guard patroling time the perimeter of patroling,rest time,training time.To have a good guard,loyal to player , the player need to have money,(for guard payment - more skiled more money)food,water and a rest place to keep down fatigue level.

9.player can have heir and can play with heir after the death.And the player can do SEX in the game.Of course without seeing nothing.

10 If the players dies in battle he will respawn at his home (if he had one) or in front of townhall just once And after the battle to avoid to help the guards if the battle is outside of  gates town

11 money will be produced only on start island to avoid fraud.1 gold coin = 100 silver coin, 1 silver coin = 100 coper coin, 1 coper coin = 100 iron coin

is more, but thats it for now.Now i hope i will get some sugestion

1 First person adventure and most important NO FEE

Well, having no fee is not the most important thing to me. There can be a lot of games out there that will be free, but they all amount to nothing if they don't have good content. Your poll is like asking me if I would like to stick a thorn in my eye for free rather than pay for it. I either play a game or I don't; the fee matters little as long as it is in a managable amount ($10-$15).

6 continents. 5 of them are unpopulated (players job) and one populated

So most of the continents have no NPCs in them? If so I'm guessing you'll have a player-to-player bartering system rather than sale and purchase to and from NPCs.

Each of those continents is unique with their own type of forest, soil, animal to hunt, coastal fish, ore deposits.

That's fine by me. I like adventuring, and under that system it would encourage players to explore the world.

To have a good guard,loyal to player , the player need to have money

Maybe you could also have the player who owns the guards have a skill such as Fealty/Loyalty or Leadership that helps their guards be more loyal to them. And, if there is a monarch class (ie. Prince/Princess), then perhaps monarchs could have an innate bonus in this Leadership skill so their guards and soldiers will be more loyal to them.

Player can set the guard patroling time the perimeter of patroling,rest time,training time

That's cool.

for me it'a important no fee because i don't have a credit card and now i can't play what game i want because of this incovinient and i want to be played even in Somalia or other country.

will be a sistem bartering in game of course because the players must form a comunity,and not just thinching of kiling everything.i don't like to see just war, will have a diplomatic and trading part to thas why i put writing and IQ Skills.

the king will havean influence on guards of course but if the guard are not paid or they are starving they will abandon the knig cause or die if starving more than 3 days.

the time in Medieval Ages -- one real Day -- 8 days in game

the time to complete any building will depends of the suplyy of goods ( wood stone iron.....)or other goods that will be necesary for build.the shortage of materials will prolong the time to build. To complete a big building better to start with all the players from town

it will have an illness system.if the player is sick he cannot work efficient and must treat him. 

the animal gestation period will be the same like in real life but in game time of course the female the same like in real life but in game time.

i noticed the leadership.tnx

Marker, you know it is going to take some time to make an mmorpg. You have to code. CODE A LOT! . Then, you have to get a server(not free). Then test the game! Then get a website so that people can download the game. This may look easy, but it is not. Just a warning.

Marker

i know it won't be easy.not server is my problem i will make my own nether the site.i will post on my server too.

the player if it will be imprisoned he can be sold slave for other players if the town ruler want

Cydone

Umm.... ok.

Good luck

Aeres

It will take a loooong time for u making that... players building their own homes... that code'll take a year to make perfect:p.. not to speak about ur advanced guard system...

The Best of luck=)

Marker

thats why i hope to be the MMORPG jewlery.after u are in nothing around u matter

lotharr

are you making a game your self?

ok, I ask few easy questions what you should know if you are coding a MMORPG.

1. Do you know how to code client?

2. Do you know what API is?

3. What game engine are you using?

4. What is Direct X?

5. Do you got concept?

6. Wich is better to code a MMORPG C++ or C# ?

7. Do you start by coding this MMORPG? (MMORPG is one of  the hardest game genres to code)

8. How much time have you spent by practicing programming?

9. Here is some easy C++ commands, tell me what they do.

BITAMP_FILE bitamp_file;

Load_bitamp_file(&bitamp_file, "andre.bmp);

 

and next

 

{                                                                                                                                         

PostMessage(main_window_handle,WM_CLOSE,0,0);

window_closed = 1

} // end if

 

find out...

 

10. Did you know that you will need to write over 100 000 lines of that if you gonna make even a small MMORPG

Greatness

lotharr, what is the site of your new game again?

Marker

i'm not affraid of work.it will be the best ever,and for mmorpg the best is C#.Don't have a site yet working on that now

 

Marker

No monthly fee?

Then tell me, how do you plan to pay your GMs?  What about the people who watch over the server to fix errors if it crashes?  What about the team working on new content and patches?  What about the server itself, which can cost over $10,000 a month for just one server?

Marker

1 i will build MY OWN SERVER.

2 i know all about to be needed and when i will be overruned by problems i have FRIENDS to fix the problem.

3 NO FEE--- because ALL THE WORLD CAN PLAY.

4 NO NEED CREDIT CARD!!!!!

5 READ AND GIVE SUGESTION!!!!

Lol $10,000 per month. That is if you want an AWESOME server.

Why does that person have the same sig as mine? Did that person, quote me, but it got deleted?

Adreal

I'm content being a lazy bum, but wish you the best, Marker.

Marker

the game will have vullcan activity,eathquakes,storms.......natural disaster.

 

Greatness

First of all, I will keep an eye on this game. Second, please change the name from "Medieval Ages" to something better! That is like the most common name! Third, Do you know how to program everything that you have been committed to doing in your game?

Marker

"Time of Kings" is a good name?

lotharr

Pretty unique names

Try something what gets the eye one the game, if you put a game named Medieval Knights it will be drowned to the mass of free games.

Are you programming the engine yourself or are you using Torque etc. ?

Greatness

lol, none of those names are unique.... DO NOT USE MEDIEVAL IN YOUR NAME! DO not use knights. How about Dravenguard(maybe name of your kingdom). lol I don't know something unique. Do not use any common names.
