Some ideas for a gamemode - Garry's Mod

Well i'm looking for a gamemode to code but i'm having a bit of trouble thinking of ideas.So far i'm thinking of making it like a survival rp. So Post any ideas you would like to see included. I'm doing this partly cause i'm having issues thinking of some and i figure if i can get the game mode how the people playing it want it then i have a better chance to have some success. Features planed Level and XP system Store and Inventories First OR 3rd Person Attribute points to effect Speed, Hp, Armor, ect Factions Multiple Character Saves Trading With Players

Most people who plan to make a RP gamemode usually fail though (unless they go around stealing code there and there), because it's actually not as easy as it looks. Hey, how about you think about something different for a change? Just because all the cool kids make RP gamemodes doesn't mean you have to do the same.

He was asking for ways to make it better then just those. I think having a crafting system like in Stranded would be nice. Maybe not as drawn out or have it save what you have built.

RP, survival or not, is old and overused.

A mission based co-op flight mod? That would be great.

That would be interesting. I think that it has some real potential.

[QUOTE=Sunday_Roast;27260210]A mission based co-op flight mod? That would be great.[/QUOTE] This is relevant to my interests.

I agree with killburn here but if you changed it a fair bit I think it would be fun. IM very good with ideas and im not tooo unrealistic for making them work too (im pretty sure). If you do an RP why not do something sort of like minecraft but without the blocks and gmod style with maybe some more features? Like at night there are lots of monsters and stuff and you have to try and survive and build a house or a fort or something then go collect resources to craft different things. That idea sounds really bad to me now but if you dont just make it some really crap lua script and have something that separates it from most lua script gamemodes then it could be fun. Also alot of people dont realize how many different games you could have in gmod and they dont have to all be big and complicated. It could be as simple as a top down view or side scrolling game where you solve puzzles with other people. 2D games can be way more fun that 3d games sometimes! I think a really simple and kind of funny warioware touched style game (what garryware is copied from) would do really well. Garryware gets boring and if you actually play warioware touched it is pretty fun. It would also be pretty easy to do too! Liek if you had individual people do there own games on a server and chill out and talk with people and have fun and then you can go and do multi player games together and stuff just look at lots of classic little games and go play warioware touched to have a look! (you can get an emulator if you want to have a look) I would enjoy a tron gamemode but that would be hard... maybe just a 2d version of the racing and the disc throwing in a a gamemode like I suggested above.

I was actually thinking of implementing a day/night cycle survival kind of thing. Been wanting to do it since i played Gmod Stranded and the admin would do zombie waves.

How about a survival gamemode that requires you to do more than just killing zombies and antlions? I've been thinking about finding some people, to see what they thought about creating a gamemode that focuses in on trying to simulate sustainable technologies (Solar, Wind, Water) as well as food harvesting (Fishing, Hunting, gardening)... I was thinking that it would be fun to set it up so that during the day, no zombies/antlions/menace... You start building with things you find around on the map, maybe have a "home-base" set up, but as you advance (gathering supplies, upgrading established systems), your "fort" gains bonuses like an electric fence (assuming you've got your mode of electricity generating), security cameras, things you can set on fire (for protection, of course ;^), etc. You could even make it fort-warsish by having more than one "home-base", separating into teams, and allowing teams to raid each other.... Oh yeah, and when night falls, it's on... Creatures target systems built/repaired by the player(s), and the players try to defend themselves and their resources until the next day..... OK, there a start, have fun...lol (if you use it, don't bother giving me credit, just let me know so I can play too!)

Make an epic sweet RP gamemode that has: Character Creation Required RP Name Temporary stats (like hunger) Permanent Stats (like endurance) A Permanent Inventory that can hold everything except the map Keys Ownable doors (with options like doorgroups, allow certain people access and title) Client Creatable Organizations Guns other than CSS and Realistic Effects Serious RP Chat with OOC, PM, Yell, Whisper, LOOC, Adverts, Broadcasts, /me and Radio Randomly Happening Events (like like zombie outbreak, earthquake and meteor shower) Donator, Respected, Moderator, Admin, Super Admin and Creator Admin Ranks (that don't replace your job) Sweet Derma Menus Realistic Playermodels (No more combine cops, blue jumpsuit citizens and futuristic gangsters) Realistic Damage and Accuracy Gun Licenses No NPC Stores (RP is player driven) Hunger Sleep Growable Drugs An NPC Buyer who Buys your Drugs Typeable Animation (/animsit) Trading Menu (randomplayer want to trade with you. Press f2 to trade.)

Things ive tried playing like that noobs just always ruin it and its never organised when that happens. Not a bad idea just doesnt seem exciting to me

Double post oops

I just want someone to make that so I can make a bunch of different schemas for it and use it on my server. (And I don't want to pay 150 euros for it *cough* kuro sucks *cough*)

Western roleplay.

dont make a roleplay try to come up with something new, or maybe a commercial game which could be ported to garrysmod

comeup with something new like a roleplay mod with different classes like: citizen, cop, gangster, mobboss, chef... oh wait..
