when the full version of FPS is released with the multiplayer feature and some bugs fixed, I would like to create an online FPS game for anyone to play for free.

So i don't have to do to all the work I was wondering if anyone would like to help me. Simply, everyone would work on their own level (any theme) and then once a week we would combine these levels and keep making our own levels bigger and bigger.

i reckon the site would get fair popular, and if we're allowed to under the freeware licence, put the game on a CD and charge people for postage + the cost of the CD so people don't have to spend hours downloadin the large file.

and also, everyone who helped out would get a split of the profits from ads/donations.

You know, this sounds like a great idea. Not sure how you'd work the mechanics but maybe theres some way to achieve some sort of level selection by scripting.

Pencil me down for a level.

cool, i didn't think the idea would be so popular. i don't have much to say, i've found a good domain name to buy, i've designed a template. i can host the site. but we really need to wait for the full release of FPSC so we can see how multiplayer is set up

And if we can't do the multiplayer how we'd like it, I don't reckon it'd be too bad if it's just a normal FPS game which is updated weekly, it'd still be fun.

Here is the jobs I need filled:

2 3d Modeller's
4 Level Editors
2 Scripters (to make the game more unique)

Of course, i'll gladly take on more workers than I've stated, they're just the minimum I would need

And IMO this will become a very profitable site. Loads of people like games, and loads of people like shooting stuff, and we can offer people both !!

Also, once the commercial licence comes out we can all pitch in, and then start selling upgraded versions of the game

And here is a preview of the design I've made:

I may not be able to do maps, unless I can do them in DarkBASIC Pro.

sweet

I'm so excited.

I just thought I'd let everyone know what the jobs would specifically require.

Level Editor - Designing the levels...placing the objects, segments, enemies etc

3d Modeller - Makes 3d Models to be imported into FPSC

Scripter - Makes occassional unique scripts to be used in FPSC

Manager - Organises when the updates will take place, and collects all maps each week and builds the entire game, then uploads it to the server. There only needs to be 1 or 2 of these.

And everyone is expected to advertise the site/game. Just by posting it in forums, submitting it to search engines, and telling all your friends about it

I can do the manager thing, and maybe after this we can all make a game out of this (I mean one that we sell, of course in DB or DBP).

And by a game, I actually don't mean a GAME and mean like the first season of maps with some AI added in.
