Blood idea

Dracula · #1 August 5th, 2006, 11:21 PM

Yep the idea of an generic corps to represent the killing of an entire squad or a sniper unit was something I had proposed in another post but with little succes...

But more corpses ar not a bad thing either

"soldiers there is only two sort of men on this beach, those who are already dead and those who will be dead soon"

Cheers

It's a silly idea and (the blood) looks awfull too.
And no, you shouldn't get 'great info' on casualties either. There's already the 'gods view' that gives more info to a player than it should so every bit of FOW and uncertainty you get is a bonus and makes for a more realistic game.

And Mr Dracula, where on earth did you come up with the idea that this game is a 'democracy'? It's a FREE game done as a hobby by a couple of people who have spend a lot of time getting the game to where it is now. They're quite open to suggestions but they decide in the end. Sometimes players get their wishes, sometimes they don't. It would become you if you could accept and respect the designers decision and motivation. And not drag this on.

Hey narwan!

Why you destroy Mr.Dracula's great idea?
I feel good if add this option.
No more reality. No more funny. What is this games conception.

This game is never Free for me and others.
You must not forget there are perchased users.

Thanks.

Narwan is one of the trusted playtesters but he doesn't own the code and can make no changes.

This game is never Free. Don't forget that I perchased,but I had broken this because of broken my heart by your reply.

The FREE download version of the game has 90% of the features of the paid version - damn good deal in my books.

Yes it is for a small number of issues. Due to the legal requirements of the release, only a select few have access to the code - ergo - they are the dictators. Learn to live with it. Given that a butler is a highly trusted servant privy to the deepest secrets of a household, you have given Narwan a most generous compliment.

Thanks.

There are large chunks of the game that are moddable and public parts of the game that have not yet been explored. If you want blood or bodies or Chaplains in the game - figure out how to do it then post it. Others have so can you.

Hi PatG
I'm not Mr.Dracula,realy.

I never crosspost.

The narwan's post replay at same timing with my thread "Offmap ArtysAP". He had shutted off my thread at talking with other men.
So,I was anger and made "unsuitable and bad" reply. So sorry.
I guess he is the designer. His style of post is same as that.

I feel the designer is only laziness,only take our times and moneys.

The designers of the SP games were Gary Grigsby and Keith Brors, working for SSI. They gave Don and Andy the code (I think), to mod as they saw fit, so long as they didn't make any money of it. So what you really have paid for is a printed manual, and the game burned on a CD. Because Don and Andy have all the power, this is not a democracy like Athens, but more like a monarchy, like Sparta, which had two kings BTW.

After all, the purchased version have nothing essential. Some better resolutions, and some utilities, which mainly helps scenario-designers. I have not seen any difference between the CD-version and the download-version, when playing the game.

Oh---!
Two intelligence agents come up! How much accounts you have,Don.
I was an good user,but you transformed me to a target of criticism by your intelligence approaches at "Arty's AP".
You are "NSDAP and Adolf Hitler" or "The emperor". I am never as these.

Guys, I'm going to lock this one down. Shrapnel Games is happy to provide these forums as a place to discuss ideas and suggestions, and we welcome all related intelligent coversation. This thread, however, is digressing into name-calling, personal attacks and accusations, which we won't tolerate.
