Title: Burp and Fart
Post by: Namach on May 07, 2007, 04:52:28 am
Will be really funny to see /burp and /fart implemented with relative sfx and vfx, maybe different for each race! ^_^

I'm not so sure. I'd rather keep our emotes to the less offensive actions.

Well, I guess if your going to have your character as an annoying snot-bag, you need the associated emotes.  It takes all people to make a world turn after all.  I can even see it now: belching contests in the tavern, people farting in the streets to tell others to f##! off, rather interesting displays of affections, among other things!  One is only limited by their imagination.

Of course it should read "Snot-Bag farts around ThisPerson" as opposed to "Snot-Bag farts on ThisPerson."

Actualy when the emotes were first implemented some of the first i tried while testing was burp and fart ::) after downing enough beer you should have the option to burp with an animation methinks.

The emotes will be editable in .19 - so I think you can fart and burp as much as you like then :P

When I want to fart in game I just cast defensive wind.....

When I fart at work they complain to the supervisor about body odor, precious things that they are.

You know with animations like that we'll have a bunch of 12-year-olds running around in the game thinking that they're "da bomb" and annoying a lot of other people ;)

I still say thanks, but no thanks.

You mean we're not?!?! :D. 12 year olds have more imaginatin than that anyway, its the 20 somthings suck infront of a computer you want to worry about.

But then again:

Will be really funny to see /burp and /fart implemented

maybe the wish wasnt presented in the most mature way possible.

If you want so much to be a pig...

> /me farts, making a very shameful and loud noise
/me remembers an infamous dwarf character named Wyldamus

Well, in my immagination I still would love to see that.. :P Maybe with some little complications, like 2 skills associated! Example: with 5 ranks in BURP you can scare your enemy preventing him to attack you for a few seconds.. With 20 ranks in FART you can make an Ulbernaut run away from you!  :devil: And after all try to imagine, "Burp Tournament at Brado's", etc etc..  ;D Ok, maybe there's something wrong in my head, but I think that well be great for roleplaying!  :devil:

/me laughing hard
yes yes that could be a sight to be seen
maybe a curtain food that creates the odor defencive or loud Rane of terror?
like eating an ulber heart makes one have the power to disburst toxic fallout to all enemies?
well that was fun pondering that thought

How about "Everyone adds Snot-Bag to their ignore list."?

Instead of a mote, this should be an auto result of eating and drinking. Now granted we don't need to eat or drink now. but in the future,when we do, having a beer will result in an inadvertent burp or having food give you gas, so you stink up the joint every once  In a while. Life is like that , when we try to fart with out the help of certain foods we usually end up blasting a brown rug burn in our tighty whities. We should have that ability here, but rather like life, what ever pleasures you take on, you deal with their consequences. Heck, I would love to see one day characters gain weight, like that Xbox game Fable. Imagine a fat Cat or a lumpy Smurf wobbling towards you. But for now i would setting with a fart after eating a pie or two, mind you not under my control just a random and hidden countdown to the explosion.

Towards that end, I think Farts should have a detrimental effect on those around ground zero, including the bombardier. There should be a temporary stat loss and and even frequent falls(rest) till the DMZ is is reached, at which time the victims instantly recover. Entering such a hot zone should be given a warning of the stench and their characters automatically yelling out loud the equivalent of "EeeeWwuuU POOPY!", "Someone light a MATCH!!", "What crawled up you ARSE and died!?!", etc. Like the ambient sound, there should be a chorus of flatulence in the sounds score, to give those around a warning of the invisible stalker emanating from the guy that just took off running. Except for the Silent but Deadlys, but that's a given.

I mean really, if we give control to the player and make it a simple text blurb, it looses all meaning and just results as more spam to be ignored. But take out of the players control, a random event and give them the decent BAD vibs they merit and you got a memorable and fascinating aspect of the game.

But this is as far as I would take it, working outhouses is not something I would like to see in the game.

I'd rather see the PS Devs put their efforts towards things other than fart mechanics.

I don't see so much funny on such unpleasant things, but perhaps making low agility characters as clumsy that randomly trip off things and people might have a much more humorous appeal, but I agree there are infinitely more important things to work on, because Planeshift isn't intended to be a non-serious game filled with jokes, specially in the cased of the overtly stupid and cliché ones involving burping and farting.

I agree, but it doesn't hurt to discuss potential features for future releases.

Heh... this discussion seems like that one on tobacco, only that it had this reply from a dev:

Quote from: Vengeance
/me starts imagining mad sponsorship money from Marlboro and Winston....


\"OK we\'ll do it!\"

:P, anyway... I read the name and it made me think "GTA". Farting is a bit... not realistic for what the game has? Characters don't use the bathroom so it's clear that their systems do not produce the necessary gases for farting. But honestly, unless the devs are thinking to add pigs and chickens, rotten food and the normal wastes of the human body in order to recreate the true medieval's street atmosphere, farting and burping will only create an annoyance that needs not to exist.

Post by: Drackion on June 18, 2007, 12:43:17 pm
I thought exactly the same thing, it just seems to GTA like. It's unecessary, and it just be annoying to those who want to play the game without any rude effects. If you want to fart or burp, you should use /me, if you really want in my opinion.
Title: Re: Burp and Fart
Post by: Entevir on June 19, 2007, 03:57:02 am
I second the use of /me
After all the devs put it in so and its pretty dam universal.You can use it with fight,dates,work and anything else you have the imagination for.Oh and as anyone can clearly see this thread isnt going anywhere so can someone please lock it ?
