Multiplayer

Raspberrypicker · 27-12-2008, 04:53 PM

This game needs some Multiplayer!

One possible gametype:

2 teams:
Runners and Blues

The Blues should outnumber the runners maybe 3:1 or 4:1

Blues start off with all the weapons, but can't do any parkour except maybe some simple jumps across rooftops depending on the gap.

The runners will then break into the Blue's base and retrieve the package and bring it to some checkpoint. This package can be thrown back and forth between the runners as seen with Faith throwing the package to Celeste in the Prolouge.

Some Maps:
1. Inside a skyscraper - Blues can only use the elevators while the runners can also climb up and down the elevator shaft.

2. Rooftops

Yes that would be amazing! Also, I think there should be a type called:

Runner Mayhem.

You know the enemy runners that chase after you in the story mode to do with the big project, one team should be them and another should be the real runners, the enemy runners must take out the real runners with any means possible and the real runners must escape to a designated area.

I got one Run off the builden as fast as you can

Race, maybe?

SS_tank_command6 · 28-12-2008, 04:32 AM

I think there should be races. Maybe like 3 racers. Go on campaign maps. Or I do like the idea of the runners vs. the henchmen.

Anthony · 28-12-2008, 03:08 PM

Races would be sick, time trials against your friends would be good.

how about Co-op mode

one person presiing buttons and switches for the other person to go through

That sounds like a great idea, RaspberryPicker

Or how about a capture the flag type game mode, where there are two bases at opposite sides of the rooftops, and two teams of 5 runners have to try and steal a bag from one base and bring it back to their own base?

I like that idea Anthony.
what about something like Infection in Halo 3?

When an Icarus runner catches somebody, he/she turns into an Icarus runner as well.
But everyone would only have one live, so if you fall off the roof, you're done for the round. This could be very interesting for the real runners who can try to out-maneuver the Icarus Runners. One false move from either runner would result in falling 20 stories to the pavement!

Great idea raspberrypicker. After I played the game all i was really yearning for was some free for all. Get a decent sized, fairly open building, lay guns around it, and have 8 people fight against eachother to 25. In all fairness, I think it would be better for the multiplayer mode if the bullets did less damage and the melee did more (in the spirit of the game). Also, hide the really good weapons at the top where only the parkour masters can reach. Any sort of multiplayer would be awesome though.

That sounds to much like a FPS which this game isn't. Then again even if you freerun up to the best weapons, since you can't do much while your holding a gun how are you going to get down. You'll have to change some of the core mechanics of the game to make your idea work.

I liked some of the others like Runners vs Blues or Icarus, Flag for Flag, Infection, Breakin (were you get in steal a bag and try to escape.)

you could just start everyone with a gun death match, team death match anyone.

Surlatum · 14-01-2009, 01:22 AM

You have to TAG each other and there starts with one tracker and lots of runners once you tag someone then there are two trackers, then three, then four, keep going until everyone is tagged or you reach a goal. or survive a certain time limit.

I got a idea for multiplayer

its like tag but you'll have obstacles can climb on pipes can climb up stuff so you can lose the 1 who must tag.
