SWARMER Posted February 13, 2003 Posted February 13, 2003 I guess what i was trying to say is that Turn based is more of a my turn your turn, no actions at the same time thing... The Force is one and all

ricepr2001 Posted February 13, 2003 Posted February 13, 2003 rebellion is kind of two sided turn based, it is a turn based game where both teams objects move and actions happen at the same time its turn based without the wait for the other person Why are people afraid to die? It is a natural part of life. Life and Death. They go together. Some people are just willing to speed up that process.

SWARMER Posted February 13, 2003 Posted February 13, 2003 i see the delima... The Force is one and all
vakundok Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 Sorry I am just tired. Turn based has two subcategory: Conventional (my turn- your turn) and simultaneous (all players give orders at the same time and after that the orders are executed at the same time).Rebellion has a hibrid strategic game (it is based on a simultaneous turn- based game but a hibrid because the planetary bombardments and assaults) and a real time tactical game. And yes it hasn't got an "End turn" button since it is automated. (Personally I would prefer an "End day" button besides this full automatization.) I think conventional turn-based is somewhat outdated for a space strategy, so simultaneous turn-based like basicly Rebellion or real time like Imperium Galactica II? I think turn based (with an end turn button) could cause a faster gameplay (the players can easily run through periods when there is nothing to react to) but with preconfigured speed changes a real time game can nearly do the same and is more ... I dunno ... REAL.
ricepr2001 Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 Yea, What he said, I agree completely. Why are people afraid to die? It is a natural part of life. Life and Death. They go together. Some people are just willing to speed up that process.
ElvisMiggell Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 I'm afraid i have to disagree. If you make it simultaneous turn based then it just wouldn't work. One player would finish their day and not be able to react to the actions of the other later in that same day. I say keep it the way it already is, but provide options to speed time up even more so that you can zip through a week or slow it right down to almost minute for minute. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
SWARMER Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 a agree with Elvis, i like the system how it is The Force is one and all

SWARMER Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 THat is my opnion as well, don't fix what isn't broken The Force is one and all
vakundok Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 ElvisMiggel: There is nothing to react to on that day since all the opponent's orders are only executed when turning to the next day. It does not matter if the opponents needs more time to give orders because they have no result before the next day. It is how Rebelion basicly works.
Knightcrawler Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 Yeah, they were describing how Rebellion worked, not changes to make in Rebellion 2. And the only thing that can happen "mid-day" is bombardments. Hello
vakundok Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 The clearest hing would be to ask Greg whether if you want GPA to be just as Rebellion which one to vote for ...
Knightcrawler Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 I hope that GPA will have many ways of playing, or at least the editor will allow you to make games that play differently. Hello
ricepr2001 Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 the thing i see a problem with is that this will be a massively modded game where possably is mp only not sure but the game will need t eiher have a load settings from host button or the peple will have to have the same mods Why are people afraid to die? It is a natural part of life. Life and Death. They go together. Some people are just willing to speed up that process.
ricepr2001 Posted February 14, 2003 Posted February 14, 2003 now that i think about it we need to have a load setings botton in the game because if everyone didnt have the same settings it would be messed up. or just an auto part of the game loading in mp, and most definately have a status bar for everyone so we could see how long fo other people to be done not just the comp your at. Why are people afraid to die? It is a natural part of life. Life and Death. They go together. Some people are just willing to speed up that process.
SWARMER Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 mabye the host game would spawn settings for the joining computer...That could remove most of the different settings The Force is one and all
ElvisMiggell Posted February 17, 2003 Posted February 17, 2003 I'm still not convinced that it's turn based, i thought that if you told a fleet to move then it goes straight away, also the same for building things. Basically, i can't see any way to make it any better. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
SWARMER Posted February 17, 2003 Posted February 17, 2003 that what i was saying, it's not turn based, it has a counter that helps you paln for the future. That is where i think that most people get confused. The Force is one and all
ElvisMiggell Posted February 21, 2003 Posted February 21, 2003 I think that Rebellion is essentially unique in its time management and should be left how it is. In terms of managing a galaxy i think it works very nicely. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
Knightcrawler Posted February 22, 2003 Posted February 22, 2003 If everything happened as soon as you told it to, all the day's events wouldn't happen as soon as the clock turned a new day; some stuff would happen in the middle of the days. Hello
ElvisMiggell Posted February 24, 2003 Posted February 24, 2003 Well where does one draw the line, the hur that you order, the minute, the second? All they are is units. In a game paced like Rebellion, i'd say having your events happens everyday is fine. What is it called, i dunnpo, how about, Simultaneous Automatic Turn Based, you and the pc both do your thing at the same time, and the end of each time unit is automatic, though you can control the length of the time unit.

SWARMER Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 that could be true, but Reb is in the Grey Aeria... The Force is one and all
