Author Topic: Should i remake my tycoon?  (Read 1677 times)

I was thinking, should i remake my Roblox style tycoon i stopped working on?
Remember?

Ya know, Good ol' Tycoony

I lost the old save so i would have to start from scratch, which also gives people the ability to add suggestions.

About war addition:
I was thinking on adding a whole combat system to it, where you have to protect your Light Factory while attacking others and stealing there earnings. you could buy health upgrades, weapon spawns that only work for you, shielding for your tycoon (aka the walls), automated defenses such as turrets, ect. I could do it, ya think that's an good idea? if not what do you think i should add?
I've been thinking, how about the "light" be just energy, and when you have enough energy you can materialize things like weapon spawns and armor then you go into a special war arena to fight others which fulfills a mandatory goal of some kind.

The vote is closed and i will be making a new tycoon with some kind of war related theme.
I will start a topic showing my progress when i'm done making the basic template.

Remember:
nothing about the gamemode is final until i release it, and that is a long way away. if you have a suggestion i'd be more than happy to hear it.


I feel like i should be congratulating furling, he seems so extremely into this.

the new topic should be up tomorrow afternoon

Maybe if you added a goal sure
Otherwise it's really boring. You save up money for better machines and then walls and a roof, such fun

If I was something like a team fort defense and each person had to pay for different stuff (one person builds fort, someone else is vehicles, weapons, med bay, spec ops, etc)

Otherwise no I'd be playing roblox then
Add a reason to finish the tycoon

I'd play it. Sounds fine with me. Kinda reminds me of that one laser tycoon. You could do something like that.


That robloxy gamemode
this post served no purpose

i'm going to give it an award

i thought tycoons were the stuff back in my roblox days

they had no point, besides getting rich and making people jealous. unless it's a war tycoon.

for some reason it was fun to just wait til i had enough money and stuff

war tycoons have points because they have swords

hyau hyau

War tycoons could get pretty unfair though.

Player A has 50 mil and a finished tycoon and mininuke
Player B has $10 and just bought his first door and a dagger

give you one guess who gets their ass kicked. That's right, Player A gets stabbed in the back via dagger


If I were going to take this up, here's what I would do:
- divide the server into teams
- each player within the team claims one section of the tycoon to run, this way it's a team effort to survive
- Red Player 1 owns the front wall/gate, and Red Player 2 owns the sniper towers on all corners of the fort, then Red Player 3 owns the motorpool, etc etc
- Have mining nodes OUTSIDE the fortress (think of Stick War)
- Use a fairly balanced weapon pack so you don't have someone nuking the entire enemy team (ex. H&K or Bushido's brand new Quake Weapons)
- Create a large map imbetween the forts so the battling is more between the fortresses than it is AT the fortresses
- Create control points that when controlled by an ally team, grants bonus cash to that team


Teams are the way of the future

I think that you should, it would definitely be liked among new players.

yes! I would make a Zombie tycoon or Lumber tycoon.
Edit: May I have your save bls, please?
