Actually, if he makes it multiplayer only, and has each region as a different server, then it is quite possible

Thats a horrible way to handle a MMO though. Source is built for high detail, closed space environments. maps have limits, entities have limits, textures have limits, everything is limited to fit Valves' specification, Source will NOT handle a MMO as it cannot procedurally generate a map, it loads the map, and that's it, even if you can bypass the limits (hint: no), Source will be trying to run the entire things at once, which it does not like at all.
Unless your mod is about MS Paint charts you're not going to get anywhere. You do what you can [i]then[/i] ask for help, right now you have an idea and nothing else not to mention your idea is rather ambitious for a team that has yet to show any kind of modding ability whatsoever.
[QUOTE=gta-man12345;19998085]but at least make a map and show some pics[/QUOTE]
Well since we got no custom textures, models or something else made for the mod yet, i might as well show you a map of C_17
Ok, we will try to make a map, but it will be in DEV for the moment.
If you decide to give up on this project.
You can join my idea which i will start as soon as I learn to map & model stuff.
Mod Idea Guys. Gotta love them.
Avatar was not a good movie, and the game they based off of it sucked.
And an MMO? [B]Fuck no[/B].
Moderator, please close this thread. I will make a new thread when we´ve got some "Progress". I will make another thread just for recruitment and ideas.
Look for "War of Pandora - Recruitment and Ideas" in this "Valve Games and Mods", later.

You don't learn to make maps/models in a day.
To be good at it you need to train for a long time...

You won't give up the project, that's what everyone said, I give this two weeks.
You guys should stop being such assholes towards him. He has an idea and even though I might be sceptical myself towards this idea. It is still going to be better than what you are doing. He is still showing some sort of creativity unlike most of you. You just sit there and bash everything you can. Let him have his ideas and let him try. Who cares if it never gets released or if the idea is too big. He will get experience and carry it onto his future projects.
Unlike you who will still be in the same spot, bashing people.
I say go for it and who cares if you fail. You will still be above most of the people here.

He's showing creativity by leeching ideas off a copyrighted film release :raise:
Son, what have you been smoking.

That is not what I meant. What I'm saying is. Stop stepping on peoples ideas. Even if it's based on a movie.

Problem is, this isn't even feasible in Source. The "team" doesn't seem to know how to develop a single aspect of this, and they don't have anything to show, giving us the "idea guy" scenario again.
If they were to use a different engine and a couple of people in the team knew how to make something half decent, I'd say go for it, but right now we need to try and stop them trying to do this in Source, it will fail catastrophically.
And they may receive a Cease and Desist from the movie publishers if they aren't careful.

Maybe so but I still do not like how people treat people who come with ideas. Rather than acting in a nice way and support/encourage them they just bash them right into the ground. In this case it's a bit diffirent since you simply can't do mmo's in source. But in other cases with people who have some fairly good ideas get instantly run over by people. Now some people are nice enough to also give a reason behind their opinion rather than saying "Oh it's another idea guy, I'll give this two weeks." etc.
I'm saying, stop it. Let them do what they want to and if you are so damn sure that they will fail. Then let them learn from their mistakes as they move onto other projects.

A good example is the poster above me.
This thread is now about who is right or wrong.
This is suck a dumb idea, why can't it be something other than avatar based.
Hey, guess what? [b]THERE'S ALREADY AN AVATAR GAME.[/b]

I'm sick of these fucking threads where it's always one guy with ideas and makes everyone else work
I now hate these threads.

Wait, what???
I suppose this guy obviously knows nothing about mods, or games, or even simple ideas for that matter.
Games/Mods based on movies don't work out very well. Or was that movies on games.. Hmm
