I'm of the opinion that the FPSC site is in need of some sample games (official). I'd like to suggest TGC have a competition, with prizes of course, to create two sample games that would be adopted as the "official sample games".

One game should be using only the included media. The second can be wide open. Having two would demonstrate what FPSC can do without customization and what it can do using 3rd-party models, textures, and other scripting techniques.

The need I think is obvious. Potential customers can read about FPSC and even see video files of the editor in action. But, they can't 'experience' what the software can do in a real game.

Anyway, just an idea for consideration. Don't "slap" or "ban" me for it.

I'd go for it. Just as long as there are some realistic rules restrictions, nothing too weird.

Maybe like 2-3 month completion time limit. You could posably also have prizes of best graphics, gameplay, use of FPSC features, or story for multilevel games and such.

Now if only I could get this runtime error problem fixed =/

Yes, well the way I see it, if you put your hart into it and don't get sidetracked, then anything is possible. Or as TGC would say, "THe Possibilities Are Endles". Now hmm, that sounds pretty damn farmilier.

I told whoever answers the questions from the website about this. He said they would consider it after V1 is officially released. (22nd)

I think they should wait a bit before having a compo, to let more people buy and get used to FPSC, to make the compo more interesting. Not everyone was an EA buyer (losers ... j/k). Also I think that MP should not be allowed in the compo as it is hard to get enough testers to play at one time and truely judge the games.

A truly great idea. Not at least to see what you guys have been working on... And i agree with Lost in Thought. With MP, there wouldn't be a story(?), no new gameplay, and after all, in my opinion, the story builds the game. Check out Return to Castle Wolfenstein. A lot of story in that FPS, or jsut as much, check out HL2. Reference material is endless on the FPS front...

SP games are fun to create. MP is also fun to create, but sometimes it gets pretty hollow...
