ARPG repair and improvement topic

Postby The Kingpin » Fri Mar 07, 2008 9:41 am

Although i'm almost sure TT's gonna go nuts on me for this, i couldn't help but think about it. I'm sure im not the only one who would LIKE to be able to RP fairly freely in ARPG. now, i've been looking at the rules, which, as i can imagine, is one of the reasons it's activity is as it is. Now, this topic is basically a place to request the addition or removal of a rule, a change in the state of the RPG [though not all changes will be possible since it's already this far into the RPG]. so, regardless of any rants, this is your place to talk...if enough people ask for the same thing, we'll change it [as long as it's not completely ridiculous like the choice to make 20 foot long lions or the like :roll: ]...

it could be anything. but that isn't what this topic is for. this topic is basically a survey to see who wants what done to improve the Animal RPG

As I said in that arguement awhile back, I want the no interspecies relationship rule removed. In my eyes it limits the rpg to severely as there isn't enough of one species to have much fun. :\

You know my opinion on the rule removal of the interspecies alliances: Its complete ********. People are going to start allying themselves with random species like in ISS. Yes, even though I participated in ISS's "group", with went against the laws of NATURE, I still hated it imensely. Now, people are going to say "When in nature do animals talk?" and I have to say "Why don't you shut the f*ck up?" because theres a difference between keeping it realistic, and keeping it realistic to an extent that no one can talk to anyone else. They are sacrfices we made to actually make it an RPG. My imput: If its approved, there HAS to be a "Noodle" in the RPG. People that try to befriend EVERYTHING and people who make completely retarded alliances, EG: Herbivore and Carnivore, need to have their characters killed. ASAP.

that was done ages ago. we already have an Executioner in there. i personally think the No Inter-species alliances rule should be removed. HOWEVER, that does not include Herbivore-Carnivore relations. also, creatures of drastically different size ranges need to be kept bound to the rule. for example: a mouse DOES NOT become friends with a lion/hippo/bear/girraffe...etc

now...just so we can settle this, i want to know. whose for keeping the No Interspecies Relations Rule, and whose against it?

So, it basically means keep the inter-species relationships to sensible level, am I right?

basically. thing is, i don't want it kept so strict that, for example, grey wolves can only become allies with other grey wolves..etc. i want to have a bit of open-endedness in the matter. for example, Tiger and bear alliances. Lion-Hyena alliances...etc etc etc...

And maybe have a good reason, like a mutual relationship. You scratch my back, I scratch yours, that kind of thing.

I don't agree with the inter-species alliances rule. personally, I think it limits the RPG too much, as Doc said earlier.

I'm totally for opening it up. I SO want my clouded leopard to be able to have an eagle that watches his turf.

that's a bit over the top. size differences and large strength differences. that kinda goes over the top. that's what TT DOESN'T want us to remove it for. we want to open it up. but we can't just remove it completely or things will get silly. hence why CIK pulled the Seismosaur-T.Rex alliance idea with his dinos and Crusher....you could have other, smaller animals look around, or maybe have the alliance you mentioned on ONE condition: you have to have a very believable reason for the two to be helping eachother. what the Eagle Gains and what your character Gains...etc

I vote for removing the no interspecies alliance, it limits the RPG way too much, and it keeps th animals from finding allies or stuff like that in other animals. Who agrees with me, if you don't, please post why.

im against that. How in any way would it limit the RPG? do you see a crocodile in and an anocanda hunting together in the wild? NO. just stick to your own species, if you want alot of "animal friends" get a social animal to RP with

CS: everybody knows that a snake and a croc would never get along, best case scenario is that they see ech other and keep going in their direction or turn around and go away from each other.

I'm fine with Alliances, but I don't like it when the alliances turn into REALLY close friendships. (I.E. A Lion and a Cheetah becoming...Close)
