Design Philosophy: Factions And What They Mean To You

Aug 24, 2011 18:11

There's been a lot of talk flung around recently about the factions; how to run them as good guys/bad guys, how to deal with who's in what faction, and so on and so forth ( Read more... )

How can the TF2 guys be in only one faction?

At the moment I'm planning to put the Monday Night Combat team in DOS to make a "RED/BLU" Rivalry without forcing people to app "RED SPY/BLU SPY" and be awkward.

Normally I'd see your point but realize the theme we're talking about here

It's subject to change, it's been the subject of a ton of staff arguments on both sides.

We have a while before the game opens, after all.

Honestly, I feel that if you are going to do TF2, you gotta do the Blu/Red divide with allowing people to app Red or Blu Spy, etc. Otherwise, some of the canon hilarity is really lost for no real reason. If you make them fight the Monday Night Combat team, you really just miss the point of TF2.

unclejam August 24 2011, 22:32:33 UTC

I don't know MNC but you could possibly do a similar thing with them (since of course you can't have FOUR TF2 teams, that'd just be silly).

crossbone_x August 24 2011, 22:34:12 UTC

Also possible. The TF2 team and how to handle them is one of the hottest sets of conversation for staff; literally every time it comes up we start arguing about it.

So really there won't be any concrete answers on that until one of us finally decides that the others are dumb and garrotes me until I agree.

What about hat code

Depending on if meatspace will let me game the way I want I am so in this.

This honestly, to me is an excellent idea. I have wanted it for years, and I never had known that Videoland existed when I started RP'ing online.

Please. Keep the information coming. =D

I guess ooooone more post wouldn't hurt...

Looking Forward To This! anonymous September 19 2011, 02:28:24 UTC

Hello, folks!

This may or may not be the right thread for this, but I just wanted to say that, after being out of the MUSH loop for a while and missing some RP, I'm looking forward to VL:R! After perusing the posts a bit, it sounds good to me so far.

Oh, I should say I played the original VL, too, for a while. I played Link for a while, which was fun. Played Espio; that was neat. You'll all know me best as the most epic gambler in video game history. That's right, Setzer Gabbiani!

I'm going to keep an eye on this feed. Thanks for taking your spare time to piece this together. Can't wait to see it when its released!
