[Concept] AvP mod PLEASE DON'T FLAME
« on: March 26, 2008, 08:50:53 pm »
need i say more...

Ok but we have a choice

1 .Aliens  vs Predators
2. Aliens  vs USCM
3. USCM vs Predators.


(USCM is the Marines (which i dont think i can spell right))

And if you can get the ailen life cycle to work +30 to you :P


The USCM is easy. You just re-skin the humans and sounds. (maybe tweak the guns a bit)

Weapons.

Pistol.
Rifle.
combat knife.
Mg with nade launcher.
Shotgun.
Smartgun (if you can impliment semi homing ability use that(plus stronger but eats ammo like a fat guy at mcdonalds) no homing (just very strong)
C-4(need i say more)

Buildings

Auto guns. replaces  :turret:(if you can have the ammo display thing so u have to reload em periodicly then cool :D)
Landning Beacon (replaces :telenode:)
Communications post (replaces  :reactor:)
Remote radio terminal (replaces  :repeater:)
Weapons rack (replaces :armoury:)
first aid box. (replaces :medstat:)
leaving all else as-is



Predators...  now then this might be tricky if its preds v humans any ideas? ???

Guns is simple

Hand to hand
Talons
Spear
Plasma caster
disc
speargun
Netgun (similar effect to trapper)
if it were Aliens V Preds then just re-do the humans.

Aliens.

All aliens can climb walls (barring those marked with a *)

attacks may include

(LMB=claws RMB=tail MMB=inner jaws)

Facehugger. (if you can have it forced to evolve to next class then good if not hen we just start out straight from the next one)
Chestburster. (like a dretch but WEAKER and SLOWER)
Drone. (builder)
Warrior. (stronger than builder but cannot build)
Runner. (faster than warrior but weaker)
Preatorian. (bit stronger than Warrior but evolutionary prequsite)
*Ravager. (Big guy with huge blades on his arms (2 evos)
*Sentinal. (Acid Spitting hive defender slow but powerful (2 Evos)
*Queen.  (very powerful but lacks claw attack (tail can kill in one hit if human doesn't have armour) claw attack is replaced with lay an egg (3 evos)

Buildings. (there will be very few due to aliens nature but here is how it might go)

Main hive node. (replaces :overmind:)
hive node. (acts more like  :repeater: because it doesnt spawn units (sprays acid as cheaper form of defence)
Egg. (wont spread creep)
Stillborn egg. (some facehuggers embryos die as they leave the host these are those eggs (these are expensive slow firing (yet very effective) defences)


i'll leave you to decide the costs of bulidings cos if it were up to me id set it all to 1 for thefun of it.

Its just a mod for fun im not asking for all 3 races just two of them and if it is just a simple reskinning and resounding then ill be happy:)

Please Please Please don't flame

Some of us have feelings to :'(

I like the predator idea. It's a mix of Humans and Aleins.

Wow, this would be a really cool mod.

Would the predators' buildings be the same as the aliens are now if it was A v P?

For the alien life cycle, maybe:
Drone(0 evos)
Chestburster(0 evos)
Facehugger(1 evo)
Runner(2 evos)
Warrior(3 evos)
Preatorian(3 evos)

If that is what you meant by:
the ailen life cycle

Building costs: assuming still with the default 100bp

USCM:
Auto Guns(5bp because of needed reloading (300 ammo?))
Landing Beacon(10bp)
Communications Post(free)
Remote Radio Terminal(5bp, so they aren't uselessly spammed)
Weapons Rack(10bp)
First Aid Box(8bp)

Aliens:
Main Hive Node(free)
Hive Node(8bp, because they do damage to the attacker as well as providing creep)
Egg(10bp)
Stillborn Egg(12bp)

Gun prices?:assuming max (currency) is 2000

USCM:
Pistol(free)
Rifle(100 creds(would do 8 dps instead of 5))
Combat Knife(150 creds)
Machine Gun with grenade launcher(550 creds?)
Shotgun if it still has the same power(150 creds)
Smartgun(350 creds)
C-4(600 creds(if it was like Amine's mines and stuck, but blew up after five seconds))

Predators:I decided I would call the predators' currency pak
Talons(100(pak?))
Spear(150(pak?))
Plasma Caster(350(pak?))
Disc assuming it is like a disc gun(400(pak?))
Spear Gun(450(pak?))
Net Gun(400(pak?))

@ Plague
and if it is just a simple reskinning and resounding then ill be happy:)

@ Thisguy
If you meant the Marines, it would be the USMC.

go play in a food processor

You can poke it with a stick, but that doesn't change the facts.

i would do this myself but i have no idea how to skin,re-soundor muck aroundwith anything hence the reason why i put [CONCEPT] before the post name otherwise i would have made a release first.

BTW Desperation have you seen the alien films?
The facehugger is what comes out of the eggs then once they implant the chestburster embryo into a host it dies (or in this case we will just evolve)

Could anyone send me a link to a modding guide or even contribute.


P.S

Preadators would work in a similar way to humans.
and the disc is a throwing disc

I also thought of changing the helmet for the motion senor with a similar display (like the alien sense but in a small box on screen)

anywho i just dont have any way of making a mod ATM if you help me make it (telling me how would be a g0od step forward) than ill get crakin ASAP

it means one you have killed one guy you AUTOMATICLY evolve to the next class and before you try and screw around with the Alein concepts WATCH THE DAMN MOVIES!!! or just reasearch the alien life cycle.

I found a something you might find amusing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_vs._Predator_%28franchise%29
A total of 14 games. Here is a semi-breakdown:
5 side-scrolling action/fighting games
9 First person shooters
1 Real time strategy
3 console games
3 handheld games
3 mobile phone games
3 computer games
1 card game
1 cancelled
1 in development

All three computer games are FPS, and you can play as all three races, in single-player and multiplayer.

So, I'm guessing we'll go with USMC v Aliens.
