[QUOTE=thecuntsman;35621377]I don't think so at all. Who wants to make another sticky bomb launcher? hey. let's make yet another shotgun! It's all been done before and it's getting older by the day. This is not to detract from some of the great work people do! it's just a shame they are re-making a pistol replacement, rather than designing their own characters and stories.
The characters original weapons were so well designed, and so well thought out, that expanding upon them feels so forced. yes, there are a lot of really nice items that have been made, but its all still visual clutter. This isn't be being a grump, I just really feel it's all been done now. If valve were to make TF2 now, intended for it to have cosmetics, they probably would have designed each character differently. Imagine if they were to bring out a new game now, with the intention of cosmetic, I wonder how they would approach that.
Yes.[/QUOTE]
I think I know where you're coming from, pretty much the unique idea well has dried up and we're kinda forced to make the same type of gun over and over without variation like the rifle/huntsman.
Which is why I'm hoping the robot update brings some new, fresh things into the game.
Think the ability to make & submit your own robots would be really cool.

I think instead everyone from the emporium should make a new game.
With blackjack.
And hookers.

I can see Demoman's crown-jewels. [IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6525472/Bilder/Smileys/hurr.gif[/IMG]
It looks really good. I like it. Though it reminds me of the crown Mister Royzo made for his Fancy vs Nasty update.

Yeh that is understandable. But the way you say it, i think, is not "building-up" creativity on aspiring artists/designers. All of what you said has valid points, not denying that and infact i support many of them. But keep in mind, these are not professional artists and designers we're talking to here in these forums. Of course we are bound to hit a wall of reharshes cuz valve polished the design cues very well. But it's been well documented that even great modders and designers have been driven away from this craft because of tactless speech of their peers, how much more for newcomers? I'm not saying that we sugar coat every comment we give but the way you comment has a very serious tone all the time and its very very easy for anyone to take that harshly even though you have the best intentions in the world.

But keep going! Just because something similar has been made doesn't mean you should stop.

I'm not here to pat everyone on the head and tell them how nice their new clothes are. If someones naked, I'm going to tell them.
People deserve positive reinforcement when they do good work. And when I see it, I'm all over them with praise.
EDIT: I also try to always tell them were to find some clothes.

It would actually be pretty cool to see the facepunch modeling community work together on an original game.

You know what? Forget the blackjack! And the game!
To the guy complaining about rehashes. Everything I make has never been done before.
But no one notices Toten ; -;

In an ocean of artists, the coder is the most valued commodity. I've wanted to work on a game for a while now, and I've only just recently found a coder who has the time.

but we'd need like.
coders.
and mappers.
and an idea.
[QUOTE=Constructor;35621944]yeah fuck this set[/QUOTE]
Going to the sauna made me realize how stupid this sounded.
Anyway, i'm just too tired to continue with this idea [U]today.[/U]
Maybe tomorrow i will have motivation again :v:

>idea
Players are robots built by a weapons development company for live-fire testing.
No set classes, but players customize their robot with different weapons and addons and things, aswell as one of a few chassis bases that define core traits (speed, hp etc)
Gamemodes would include pvp matches with your usual deathmatch and ctf kind of things, including one where weapons etc are cycled during the match ("Okay, now we need to test this one!")
They would also have team vs npc combat, which got increasingly difficult as waves progressed (similar to games like KF). Maps for this would be dynamic, with new pathways and areas opening and closing as the game progressed to prevent camping in one spot.
robots and shit, whee
inb4 ideas guy... oh wait.
[QUOTE=Pie_Tony;35621984]but we'd need like.

and we'd need to be organized...
and we'd have to get along...
I can't even begin to imagine the drama of the Emporium trying to work together on a game.
Well it's already pretty hard just to work on models together, evidenced by the Mod Comps, sooooooo :v:
