So are the developers going to add anything unique to clans? Or is it just going to be.. oh you're in my clan.

Detnation · 06-09-2006, 09:56 PM

I dought its just gonne be oh your in my clan but there will probably be something invlovling a name prefix above your head saying what clan your in you know something like that. Or maybe it will be like in CS where you just put your clan tag next to your name to show your in that clan. other than that we will have to see what happens.

purebreed · 06-09-2006, 10:06 PM

Or maybe something dynamic? Where you can have your own customized clan symbol? But that would be hard to implement on the 360.... unless you can login on your computer and upload the symbol.

Your outfit that you join in Huxley will be able to control physical buildings within the cities for clan headquarters, merchants around these buildings will give the outfit members discounts or access to different missions. Outfits can also win control of battleground contested points like mines, similar to what you can find in DAoC. The outfit symbol is pretty much a given. We're also hoping that the outfits can stylize the coloring of the paintjob on the armor similar to medival era house colors.

purebreed · 06-09-2006, 10:59 PM

Oh. Nice. Where can I find this information?

Detnation · 06-09-2006, 11:09 PM

Felix did you play the beta or something or do you just think thats what you can do and if your not playing the beta can you tell me where you getting the information.

thanks

scroat · 07-09-2006, 01:43 AM

well felix if thats tru thats nuts this game is gonna b better than i ever imagined

makavelli914 · 07-09-2006, 03:08 AM

maybe if u read something ud realize felix isn't a beta tester. The overall goal of the afctions is to control these lunarite power sources which will obviously be control points like bases etc. discovered by Huxley, lol that's even the title of the game.

purebreed · 07-09-2006, 04:39 AM

Well I've actually been reading as much as I could about Huxley. I didn't know that you could actually fight over territory. I thought that was just some stuff they put in the game story or description to make the game sound more interesting.

Felix12g · 07-09-2006, 08:34 PM

No, I'm not a beta tester, I get my information from the articles, interviews and documentaries that have come out. I've had my eye on this game for a long while.

But yes, the whole war is over the lunarite as a power source. As for the storyline, they've raped it so much that there's basically nothing but the name to link it with what they started to base the game from, which is a book written by Aldous Huxley. A good read from early last century. The devs said they wanted to model it off of Huxley's "A Brave New World" but couldn't find a feasable way to do so.

Detnation · 07-09-2006, 09:19 PM

aaaaaaaaah. i understand i've have my eye on this game sense E3 and for some reason when i try to look at info I always get the same plaves but I shall try and find some other places to look

thanks.

Jericho · 09-09-2006, 07:15 PM

I was about to say, this game doesn't remind me of Brave New World at all, really. But props to the devs for trying to combine gaming and literature.

Detnation · 09-09-2006, 08:24 PM

yeah. lol GRATS.

Felix12g · 09-09-2006, 08:43 PM

Many different games come from literature, their "New stories" or "Fresh Ideas" are just rips from older Sci Fi. Take Halo for instance, it's based off a book called Ringworld by Larry Niven. A good read, but like starship troopers, the remakes don't exactly follow the story so much (And I admit the story wouldn't make a good game) Game developers are artists in a way, and it's said that good artists copy, great artists steal.

GuyRobinson · 09-09-2006, 11:46 PM

dang this game is gonn be sweet. so will there be like quests/missions like WoW or what? other wise it will just seem like a FPS just with alot of people.

Felix12g · 09-09-2006, 11:55 PM

Yeah, there's a whole PvE side of things with missions and very probably a storyline as is hinted at in a couple vids. The missions look like they'll shape up to be cleaning out colonies of zerglings and the third faction npcs. With some faction PvP tossed in there as well possibly (Disrupting the other side's missions)

GuyRobinson · 10-09-2006, 12:56 AM

nice. this agame gets better and better everyday

Detnation · 10-09-2006, 03:32 AM

that would be cool if some of there pve quests were like Quest ( Hunt and kill) Objective: Kill 15 Alteratives if you were say Sapien or the other way around if you were Alternative. There is also most likely gonna be killing hybrids as the main quests and getting lunarite. : ).

Jericho · 10-09-2006, 04:05 AM

What would be really cool is having competitive PvE missions. . . Like you would go through the mission as normal, but at any time a team from the other faction could enter without your knowledge, at least until you run into them on the battlefield. Then you both fight for the objective, winner gets the mission credit.

Detnation · 10-09-2006, 04:11 AM

Are you saying like a instance where you and another faction team can go on without knowing each other are there. Idk that could work but i think webzen is gonna make it so its just world pvp/pve so that it combined except in pvp instances.
