Hello everyone, with the amazingly useful sackbot AI system COming up in LBP2, i have an idea in my head, that i may be able to pull off, it has Been done before, but with the sackbot AI, i am confident that this will be MUCH better than the ones we have now. Well enough of me blabbering, heres what i am planning to do!: Left 4 Death: an multiplayer zombie shooting fest! Fight off an endless amount of ai sackbots *aka"the horde" To compete for the highscore and achieve TOTAL LEVEL DOMINATION!!
Or, choose the multiplayer- versus mode, to face off against two other friends: Two as the survivalists, and 2 as randomized special infected!
Dont worry, youll still be fighting for your life, as you have two real players, and A horde of infected sackbots, bent of eating your stuffing inside your little burlap body! PLAY as one of 6 special infected!:
The Gutbuster: an unstable mas of quivering acid, it shot at a few times, this zombie will explode! Killing anyone who ends up near the acidic explosion!
The Pouncer! Sneak around the rooftops, stalking your prey, when the time is right,Use your superjump ability to fly through the air, Shocking (literally)any survivor that dares to set foot in your path!
The Spewer! Spew out deadly naucious acid wherever that are any survivalists, to instantly melt them in to a quivering pulp!
The Pulveriser: VERY strong zombie with massive arms, can easily kill a survivor within a hit or two (very rare to get as a special infected)
The Ram! Use your monumentally big arm to charge at survivors 5x the speed of any other zombie! IF used correctly, this attack can squish your victim's stuffing out
The Phsyco! Crazier than most zombies, you are able to run VERY fast, and can kill survivors and break through doors twice as fast!If you see a survivor, quicly run up to them and pull them into any death inducing threat possible! (speed while dragging is halfed, as if it was a normal zombie)
Now that all THATS over with, i can get down to buisness! Implying that i can randomly emit different controll seats and zombies with a death indicator, and possibly a repawn delay, the randomized effect of the 2VS2 is very well possible, however the whole multiplayer 2vs2 thing, all depends if thier is somehow a way that a can get eachplayer to have their own camera.
And almost all of the following playable infected's are a possiblity (that i know of)
Pouncer, using some altered AI on the sackbot to make the superjump, along with any nesssary logic needed to execute the pounce, along with A healthbar HUD, and electrified hands to give the pouncing illusion
Spewer: If i can make sackbots emit things, then ill be able to make the spitter use its spit ability when R1 is pressed.
Gutbuster (working name) Will be able to work, if i can emit the acid, (horrible gas or electricity, and some bombs, carefully hidden on the Sackbot.
The Ram And Pulverizer: The guys will work if i can electrfy the limbs on the Pulverizer's fists, and resize limb sizes. And if i can record a custom animation on the SACKBOT ai with the arms on him, for the attack.
The pshyco is perfectly fine, as long as i can electrify certain parts of the limbs (hands, in this case) and make the AI sackbot tweaked to run faster. Give me ANY feedback, and if possible, some proof if some of my ideas wont be possible so far! :)
Thanks!
P.s: Yes, this is based on Left 4 dead 2, i have an XBOX 360, sue me! :rolleyes: ANd i wouldnt be logical to accept any other project contributers at this point, but when it gets closer to release date (maybe augest-ish?) I will start accepting any willing members! A very big thanks to any future contributor!
