Hey! Lets start a game guild.
« on: March 14, 2004, 10:48:17 pm »
We need to form a temporary guild (or just a team) of members willing to chip in on building mini-games for PS, most specifically a PS original card game. This way, less expirienced programmers (such as myself) can handle these mediocre tasks while we leave the devs to work on future releases. (If devs want to help out on this, thats okay too) :D

A lot of people liked the card game idea with all the threads created on the topic, and here are a few:

http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=7434&boardid=11&sid=26dbfaf000d47f2d06e3e37450595f29
http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=2482&boardid=11&sid=26dbfaf000d47f2d06e3e37450595f29

This guild will work on ideas for a card game and even develope it, allowing the devs to basically plug it right into the game in a future release (ok, its not that simple, but worth a shot).

We will need programmers and artists. If you cant draw or program, you can join anyways and submit your ideas. :D

[EDIT: WE HAVE FORUMS! http://www.chatarea.com/YliakumCartomancers]

Oh, and any ideas on a name?

Grakrim\'s title propositions:
1) \"Planeshift Subdiversion Corps\"
2) \"Wizards of the Stalactite\"

I\'m tempted to help you out with the code, although I have so many projects I\'m working on right now...  Ah, what the hell; I\'ll donate some time if I can scrounge some up.

Yes!

I want to work on it, but as you can see by my recent posting, I\'ve had less time for the computer... I\'ll see what I can do.

It looks like the rules are all laid out... is it just code and cards, then? I\'d like to try my hand at writing an official rulebook, if I can. That sounds fun.

I\'ll also see if I can help with the visual layout of the cards.

Also, I dont feel like reading the whole thing, so, is it a CCG? Most of the people posting in the old thread had very weird ideas about CCGs. They ranked cards in levels of \"good\" and thought that it was a bad idea because of the randomness of booster packs. The fact is, most players have the resources to get most of the singles they need for most deck types. AS for the good/bad thing, sure, some cards are just bad, but you can\'t rank a card that way in a good CCG. That\'s only in bad CCGs, like Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon (speaking as a person who has played both).

As for there being more strategy in a non-CCG, how so? Everybody has the same deck. A CCG is not about getting the best cards you can.

So... if everyone has the same deck, I\'m not working on it.

Also, this shouldn\'t be a guild, that\'s excluding much of Yliakum\'s guilded population. Therefore, this should not be in the guilds forum.

Before discuss a game set and its core, we need to organize members and get a forum, and I am working on that.

Also, this wont be an in-game guild, so anybody can join even if they are already in another guild.

Ok, I got a forum up and running at ChatArea.com

Go ahead and create a user account and then join the society called Yliakum Cartomancers.

Hope to see you all there!
