Pie and a Pint 3: Pie Hard With A Vengeance
|
It's been well over a year since the last GDNet London meet up: I think we're overdue for another.
I'm thinking some time in the summer might be good. (June/July) Since this forum has been dead for a while, I'm throwing this out as an initial inte... |

Scuba Diving, Digital Cameras & Girlfriends
|
So, the gf and I have just booked our first holiday together, in which we plan to learn how to scuba dive.
However, we're going to want to take some photos of all the weird slimy betentacled things that lurk beneath the surface, and for that we'r... |

GDNet London 2006 Gathering interest check
|
Well, it's going to be 2006 soon, and I think we're overdue for another gathering.
I'm thinking either the 7th or 28th of January, or pretty much any time in February. 14th and 21st are no good for me because I'll be in Austria enjoying all the lo... |

Hello World! (well, London at any rate)
|
First Post! And as such, this would probably make a good place for people to say hello, introduce themselves, or discuss their latest recipe for jellied eels.
I actually don't live in London at all, but just outside the M25 in a thrillingly exciti... |

The Strength of Player Rankings?
|
To what lengths will a player go to get a 'better' in game title?
I'm wondering how powerful persistent player rankings can be for determining how much effort players put into the game. How much can we, as game designers, rely on them for enc... |

RTS Interface: Strategic Markers
|
I've been thinking a lot about taking a slightly different approach to the RTS interface lately, with the goal of coming up with something that gives the player a high degree of flexibility, whilst being scalable enough to cope with both small and la... |

AI Generals: More interesting computer opponents [RTS]
|
In my opinion, the meat of any RTS game is in the skirmish missions. The campaign is good for one or two plays, but after that, the thing that keeps you playing are the single player and multi player skirmishes.
One problem with the single p... |

Critters? [RTS]
|
What do you think of critters in RTS games? How much impact do you think they should have on gameplay? Some examples from popular games:
Starcraft: Critters have approximately zero impact on gameplay, their only purpose it seems is... |

Endgame
|
Have you ever played a strategy game, beaten your opponent (be it a computer or human opponent) and felt the end game to be somewhat anticlimactic? Or have you been beaten squarely by someone else, and sat watching helplessly waiting for him to finis... |

Three "tiers" of roleplaying
|
Why do only roleplayers get to have hardcore rules? Plenty of non-roleplayers enjoy these too.
Also, I don't think you can really mix roleplayers and non-roleplayers, unless they are somehow prevented from communicating with each other. How c... |

Every system that I've used before has x increasing to the right, y increasing downward, and z increasing out of the screen, but unless I'm doing something wrong, OpenGL seems to have y increasing upward.

I'm going to be controversial and vote for one of the class based options.
I don't actually think skill based systems really give you that much real variety. They merely give you the illusion of variety, and the means for players to shoot the... |
