I'm not entirely sure if many agree, but it would satisfy some, if not many, a One Piece partnersite. I'm very interested in the anime and manga and would be willing to donate to the project whether it be through USD or game knowledge and staff help.
-
Are you requesting a One Piece game on a LotGD server?
-
Exactly, but under ownership of Neji, unless someone else can run it, such as Ice or Kamui...
-
Not that I speak for Oliver, but I am 99.99% sure he has his hands full.
Actually, I think I can be sure that Oliver will not be creating a One Piece LoTGD.
Try messaging KamuiKachi in-game, probably a faster way to contact him than using the forum. ;)
-
Vouches for the .01% left. >_>
I'll make sure to do that but this thread was to instill this thought in everyone's mind for opinions.
-
Not getting any hopes up, but I do vaguely recall a conversation about One Piece mentioned by KamuiKachi- this was probably in the grotto.
Again, I am not certain as this I think happened a little while ago...
BUT, I can almost recall the mention of Kamui talking about a One Piece LoTGD. =)
-
LoTGD's are a dying trend... Death to PHP! D:<
-
One Piece being delivered in SL style?! Not sure that's gonna make an interesting game at all. One Piece is all about the exploration and the "Kizuna" thing between you and your "Nakama".
Can't really simulate the seafaring experience if all it takes is one click to get you to the next island/town. Not to mention fighting the same random mobs no matter the location.
There is also a lack of missions or treasure finding quests. What are you gonna do in the game? Fight random mobs till level 15 and then get a Boss Kill? Then repeat until you get enough Boss Kill for a Devil Fruit power like SL's Kekkei Genkai Rebirths?
Since there are no forming party with other players online in LotGD games, you will be going on your endless journey alone, which wouldn't be every interesting. Other players only serve as PVP targets when they offline.
If the gameplay ain't interesting in even the slightest way, I doubt you will be able to find anyone to RP with.
-
Not trying to be a jerk, but it seems clear Neji had other things to worry about. Maybe you can learn the code, make your own site, and ask to be a partner website?
-
I'd rather not setup one, as I have no time to do anything besides what I do right now.
(which is being behind on a lot of things, really, the test server i.e. and new modules)
KamuiKachi and IceSlayer are into a OnePiece at present, or so I have heard. They have my support and may use the modules I use here - have no issue with that, most have a "some assemly required" sign on them, though.
-
Is talking with Kamui now.
-
I don't mind brainstorming for ideas. If we can't make a LotGD game that let players experience 100% of what One Piece has to offer, then at least make what we can do, as good as possible. Just one thing, since I don't the manga, I only know stuff that are show in the anime.
Kinda thought of an idea of replacing mounts with ships.
-
Better off treating mounts like slaves, considering you're purchasing them for their services. Say for example, I bought Rayleigh, the One Piece-equivalent of the Kyuubi (or perhaps, Manda or Shukaku). I'd feed him (if he were either of the latter two) because well, masters need to take good care of their slaves, and I suppose that's it. It wouldn't make sense whatsoever for a ship (of all things) to be attacking enemies of its own volition.
-
Let's analyze the mounts on SL:
- increase atk/def
- increase travel points
- attack the enemy
- only last for a set amount of rounds
- need to be fed to restore rounds.
- can only be fed once per gameday.
How I make those fit into One Piece:
- I don't any problem with a ship increasing the player's atk/def. Bigger ships, more atk/def.
- It's obvious that pirates travel by ship.
- Come on, your ship should have a few NPC crew on board that knows how to work the canons or fire a rifle, right? Bigger ship means more canons, and more number of attacks per round.
- There ain't infinite ammo on board, so it's only logical that your NPC crew would run out of bullets/canon balls after awhile.
- Need to be resupply.
- Stock are limited even at the supply store you know.
Still think slaves as mount makes more sense than a ship?
-
Increase AKT/DEF - Well sure, an extra sword/shield can produce the same effect.
Increase travel points - They can give you piggyback rides places?
Attack the enemy - Go figure
Only last for a set amount of rounds - Well, they are only human
Need to be fed to restore rounds - Go figure
Can only be fed once per gameday - Stomachache?
In other words, I do believe slaves/pirates would make for better mounts as opposed to ships.
-
And Chopper would be Kuromaru's equivalent :D
-
That would work. Sanji could be Katsuya - each kick in his flurry could be each slug that attacks, and his cooking heals!
-
I'd prefer having the main characters as Mercenaries instead of slaves. Not to mention that slaves can't give you a piggyback ride across the ocean. So what plans do you have for ships? Please don't tell me that you're going to have ships replace dwellings, or that the game will have no ships at all. Look at the whole picture and not just the tiny part that you seem to be opposing.
Instead of justifying the flaws in your concept, try fixing them and point out the flaws in my concept so that I may do the same.
-
Ships replacing dwellings eh... that's a pretty good idea! It's not like a pirate would sleep in a regular house, that would be just plain absurd!
-
Uhh...a ship that don't sail, use for storing gold and serves as a place for you and your mates to sleep in...god, that actually makes some sense X_X;;
-
Well, your ship wouldn't be sailing 24/7, right? You might have it docked in town or anchored somewhere along the Grand Line for an afternoon snooze, for example. But yeah, when you think about it, it does make some sense. ;)
-
Well, the sailing part can always be RPed in the zones or in the ship (dwelling) itself.
-
Hence ships =/= mounts. :smt075
-
You actually care that much about about the slave or ship argument? =p
We should be simply discussing possibilities and making them better. Anyway, I think that "Hideout" can easily replace "Dwellings". And it makes sense for a pirate to have a hideout here and there to stash your gold.
If ships were used to replace dwellings, then the only logical thing to do would be to make it accessible from every town like the garden on SL.
-
Most pirates in One Piece are nomadic, so a hideout is a no-go when considering the series' context. Besides, the Straw Hats keep their finances stashed away on their ship, so...
As for the accessibility, well, if you ventured deep into the jungle of an island, is it logical (One Piece-wise) for you be able to access your ship from God-knows-how-many-kilometers-away at your own convenience?
-
Sorry to keep bringing up old things, but I had an idea for the mounts. It would essentially be building off of Mainyu's idea, though instead of calling them slaves, I thought there had to be a better name to call them. <<;
It could be a "First Mate" system, where essentially instead of a stables or bestiary, you would visit a "Shady Tavern" (that could be changed,
I'm not super familiar with One Piece so I don't know specific names of buildings) where you can essentially hire out a First Mate:
Since they're a separate person or companion, they would be able to assist you depending on how much it costs to buy their loyalty/services (such as how Katsuya heals and damages enemies, so maybe a Chopper First Mate would heal you and do minor damage). Basically the more expensive the First Mate, the more damage they do, the more perks, the longer they last (stamina), etc., just like how they are in SL.
In terms of travel points, maybe they would affect your "spirits" so that the more funny a character is, the more willingness you have to travel far. Or you can even just do away with the idea of adding travel points. :twisted:
They would last "X" amount of terms depending on how large they are, or maybe proportionate to their stamina in the show. You can buy them a meal at the Shady Tavern once a day to replenish their strength as well.
Eh, just a random thought. ^^

Sounds a lot better than my stub-of-an-idea. ;)

Thumbs up for Purple =)
