Title: Republic VS Police State 1.0 (Updated!)
Post by: ElimiNator on 1 February 2012, 22:02:31
The world is being taken over by the government and the Elite of the world. They are trying to set up a police state and control the population. There is only one person that can save the world ... you! Make an army of citizens protest the governments evil doing. Next thing you know they will try to censor the Internet!

This is packaged as a whole game and comes with the required MegaGlest (http://megaglest.org/) version.

Oh; sad face :(  Started a new game in GAE 0.3.2, and on selecting Police State it crashes. Will have a look at the files and see if I can spot what's up.

I don't think this will work on GAE, only MG sorry.

I couldn't see anything obvious (but am new to Glest) so will grab MG again and have a look. Cheers.

Looks like we need a special techtree to make this faction work .

I get:
Resource Type not found: fiat_currency

Yes, there was a slight bug. It is fixed now, and packaged as a whole tech-tree.

Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: ElimiNator on 1 February 2012, 23:55:58
Its a mod based on/protesting all that.

HA HA HA Hilarious! :O Love all the symbolism!

Propaganda annalist is just a useless college frat boy :O

Gameplay: just 2 thing really annoyed me:

1 you start with -70 fiat. that takes forever to get out of the initial hole! (maybe this is another symbol but its still a pain)

2 The sound that the elite car makes all the time is gets irritating fast. Then again the Cooperate elites are annoying as well so I guess it fits :P

btw fiat cost nothing to make is that intentional?

I had a fiat once. Free is still too expensive I think.

Are the anti-gov protestors representing the occupy hippies or the teabaggers? And can the gov just nuke them?   
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: wciow on 2 February 2012, 18:12:22
 :O Teabaggers, I'm just imaging how that could be modeled as a unit in Glest with a rather unique attack!  Makes me wish we had DOW style synch-kills!

You will find out when its finished.

Ill change the starting res.
The fiat cost is intentional, after all USA just prints money like mad.

I added a intro vid on the first post.
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: Mr War on 4 February 2012, 10:45:18
The vid is fantastic, very much like a trailer.  Am I seeing formations functionality ?? ;)

Constructive criticism: Some of the buildings generally look like they need more work on the skins, like the white house looks like it's cut from a single block of uniform white styrofoam.

Very cool mod idea! love it!

Also the sounds in the trailer are very good man! I hope that when I get around to playing the actual mod the sounds will be so nice. And I think an urban tileset would make this so much better.

Nice mod, idea, and video! You should make one for MG... ;)

Awesome. Though what are the red guys holding?

I'm still a little confused about how the gameplay will be... What does the camera man do?
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: ElimiNator on 12 March 2012, 16:22:21
The guys in red shirts have signs protesting the police (witch damages them), cameramen take pictures of the "evidence" for proof/documentaries  (witch damages them).

Can the police have tear gas grenades, water cannons and miniguns please.

Ill add tear gas grenades and water cannons, but what do you mean by miniguns?
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: Mr War on 13 March 2012, 06:40:19
Well for shooting the protectors If they try to damage you with their chants and cameras ;D

I imagine flame thrower would be quite useful if they tried to set up a smelly tent village or something
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: ElimiNator on 13 March 2012, 16:03:18
Did you play the faction? I already have a police man with a gun.
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: Mr War on 13 March 2012, 18:12:26
Don't worry, I was only joking. I think you've got a really interesting game idea here.

One unit idea might be a police state special unit based on the idea of government censoring. Using attack boost, it could reduce the attack power and sight of enemy (republic) megaphones and cameras within a certain range. Maybe it could be mounted on a van.

Heh, pretty funny, BUT probably not what elim wanted
Elim, this is an awesome mod, I like it, and your trailers also really good

OK, here is the water cannon:

It might be fun to have less gradient and fade on the particle image?

A simple circle without fade might look a lot more water-like?
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: Mr War on 16 March 2012, 07:29:41
Looks great. Love the police van. Is there an upgrade to put indelible dye in the water so that you can hunt the baddies down days after?
Title: Re: Republic VS Police State
Post by: John.d.h on 16 March 2012, 14:50:12
I like the water cannon.  Maybe the particles could be more white/gray, though?

personally I like the first one better, the second image looks more like a lazer

Maybe there should have a spray look

OK, this is the final version:
