[QUOTE=georgeface;42154650]Question: Is this a "fan game" or near enough a clone of it?
Also how can anyone be the "ideas man" if you are making a zombie survival game. The fact you said "Zombie Survival" and "CoD Zombies" means you came up with like 0 idea and used it from elsewhere.
adding maps and textures aren't ideas. That's content[/QUOTE]
*Facepalm*
This game only has the similarities of:
Power Ups after zombies die.
A random mystery box that gives you weapons
Survival/Round based gameplay
Wall weapons
Point system.
None of the above will work in the same way as they do in CoD. Well except the point system. How about instead of playing 21 questions you just wait? until I have released a video of gameplay or something of the game that shows you what it is like.

you say they "won't work in the same way as they do in cod" yet they're all features from cod. you haven't come up with anything new, you've just tweaked things from other successful games (and even then you might change nothing and claim it's "not like how it is in cod". nobody will wait for a video of gameplay because it's gameplay everyone has seen before.

Oh my god... how many times do I have to say it? I will add new stuff, gameplay styles etc.
Like I said I don't want to tell you guys everything!
that's stupid. you keep secrets if your game is actually anticipated. nobody really wants this because it's literally just a cod clone ("its a 100% cod ripoff right now but its gonna have new stuff that i havent come up with yet!!!"). either you explain why, exactly, your game isn't a complete copy of cod, or nobody will ever be interested.

Exactly, present ideas when they are actually in a presentable state.
EDIT: I mean even if its in progress present something present it once it reaches a certain state to build feedback
this is game dev and general not suck 101 jesus

How on Earth will you get a mystery box to work differently? Aswell as powerups?
If you are serious about making this then your biggest thing through it's development should be "Why should people play this and not CoD on PC with mods?"

Just wait and see. I really don't give a fuck on what you guys think of this game. Reason why I fucking came here in the first place is to ask for help... since there was only 2 of us at the time, I wanted more people so I could reach my goal quicker and get more done. That is one of the reasons why I can't show much now, since I do not have a lot of people.
I really don't give a shit about my attitude. I think I speak for the entire team when I say...go fuck yourselves. I do NOT have to justify myself to any of you... so please fuck off and have a nice day.
If you really think my attitude is horrific then well it's your own fault.
I am never like this, most of you have been huge wankers. & good bye. :)
I don't care about your attitude, where did I mention it?
If you really want to tell people who might of given your game a chance to fuck themselves so be it, I can play the real CoD zombies if I wanted, I posted
[QUOTE]"If you are serious about making this then your biggest thing through it's development should be "Why should people play this and not CoD on PC with mods?"[/QUOTE]
to try and help. If you don't want it, then don't ask for help. Good luck with your clone.
Just wait and see heh, might as well shoot yourself in the feet

I'm sorry, you call this help? HAHA! You just made my day. :)
I'd say it was, if I was making this I would consider it help, how isn't it?
Urm... "Might aswell say that literally everything is the same" "you say they "won't work in the same way as they do in cod" yet they're all features from cod. you haven't come up with anything new, you've just tweaked things from other successful games (and even then you might change nothing and claim it's "not like how it is in cod". nobody will wait for a video of gameplay because it's gameplay everyone has seen before."
You get the idea? That shit? ^^^ is not help... none of this is. Help would actually be saying something like, "Yeah sure, I would like to help you" Or "I'm sorry to say this but I think this game is a bad idea" Instead of fucking saying, This game is a clone over and over!
Well no, I said that you should keep "How can I make this different enough so that people actually care about it" in mind so that you actually have an audience to play the game. If you make the same game exactly as CoD:Z then why wouldn't people play that?
My point being you need to add shit so that it's interesting otherwise no one will care

Ah yes I understand that, like I have said, I am adding "shit" to it.
No, no not just you, other people here too.
I wish you the best of luck, but I think you are seriously underestimating the amount of effort required to make a game, and I simply cannot expect this to get anywhere near release.
I mean, if it does shape out okay, Activision are going to hit you with a C&D. Rebrand it if you want any chance of release.
I'm not underestimating it. I know how hard it is.

"i'm a terrible dev that thinks insulting potential players of my unoriginal stolen game is a good idea"
seriously you're just being dumb
[editline]11th September 2013[/editline]
you don't deserve help. you can say "its not a clone!!!!!" all you want. you literally call it a "fan game", use all the same features and expect people to take you seriously. and on top of that you act like we're somehow wrong, that we're all awful people because we tried to tell you that what you're doing is silly.
Will this game cost as much as the Call of Duty Games that came out awhile ago but don't budge in price? Or will you not be copying the price from the game you're copying ( fan gaming )?

B-but... My parents won't let me use their c-credit card... *sniffles*
Look, guys I DO KNOW what I am doing, I know it takes dedication to make a decent game. I know I need to work my ass off, I am doing that. DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER!
if you knew what it takes to make a game you would knew the base of any game is an GDD and a proper presentation
I have and am thinking of ways to differentiate this game with CoD Zombies as well as it be familiar at the same time.

No offense, but I do not see a proper presentation. You have an idea and are trying to find players, but in the OP you could have posted some images, designs and such of what you have already to add to the table as well as give people an idea of what you're looking at. Even a trailer works.
I did not come here looking for people to play it, I came here to look for people who know how to model high poly, low poly, texture, script etc. I do know some of those things, but I would like some more experienced people on the team.

And in order to find the quality people you seem to want then you need to cough up some progress.
For example, even if you draw a design that works. Such as a map idea and such.
Okay then, I shall do some concept art or something, I will draw out a level and post it.
[editline]11th September 2013[/editline]
I don't understand why it says there are 4 pages when I can only access 3. D:
i was actually going to post here and being a colossal faggot like the rest of the people here but instead of all the other idea guys you posted progress, heres what would make your game better.
a) new name, current one is cow dick
b) the idea your going towards is very very much alike cod, and seriously make it creative instead of "ur a dude and u r tots rad and u r have backsotry plane in midel of noware and kill zombo"'
c) stop acting like your 50 game devs combined
"I'm not going to be a massive faggot, [B]like these guys[/B]"
You then go on to call the name straight up bad, it's actually not terrible
you then moan that the "cod zombies [I]fan[/I] game is like cod, even though he said he was going to add his own ideas
then you call him out on his attitude.
"[B]Here's(*) what would make it better[/B]" Kind of hypocritical considering you basically bitched at him for acting like he knows everything
