I was woundering if anyone would be interisted in taking the tank out of winbolo and redisgine winbolo. For example, have a frogger winbolo. We would be frogs, boats would be lilly pads, bases would be whatever frogs live in (please tell me) and pills will be flies. If anyone is interested in this, please tell me what you would like to see. I am only doing this the majority of the vote is OVER 50%
I'm not to sure about having frogs and flies in WinBolo but it would be interesting to see other vehicles available in the next version of WinBolo. Don't know how plausable this would be for Elvis but I'msure somebody will have an idea. I like tanks but imagine the possibilities if there were other vehicles available to, such as jeeps with more seed and less armour, heavy tanks which would be slower but have better armour or artillery tanks that could shoot long distance but would be poor with most other things.
If frogs n'flies are your thing though then I'm sure when the new versionof WinBolo comes out you will be able to creat a skin that will change the tanks n'stuff that you have so obviously become bored with :shock:
Ess-K (up and thinking)
I was realy planning to have a final fantasy theme to it. But, i thought it wasen't worth it untell i get some feedback.
this is gay....Don't change WinBolo!!! If you change it, it won't be WinBolo anymore!!! You will defile the sacred game!
for once in your miserable life, stfu mm. i think its a great idea to have a mod of winbolo, and I wish you all the luck in your task
Yes it would be sweet to have the option of using different graphics!! I love using the different sounds I got from sheeps and Sticks soundpack (I combine different sounds together from their pack).
MM: I think Divine Knight is talking about making mods - mods only affect the graphic of the person using it - even if I might use the frog thingy, you'd still see only tanks/etc.
Ok, i will not be playing for a while and i will go and make so themes. I will make frogger, and final fantasy 9.
I think you'd be an excellent telemarketer, Madd Maxx. You seem unaffected by constant rejection and ridicule. :D :D :D
I ACTUALLY agree with madd maxx on this.. :oops:
Bolo is like baseball, the game should not be tampered with! I think it's fine the way it is. It doesn't need any more bells and whistles. We don't need more types of vehicles and crap.
If skins are added that changes how the game LOOKS, rather than how the game is PLAYED, that might be ok. As long as the game itself is the same. Then I wouldn't care if you wanted to have your screen be frogs fighting other frogs on their lily pads with flies, or even teddy bears fighting other teddy bears on their dollhouses with chrysanthemums. Just as long as I get to have tanks fighting other tanks on their bases with pillboxes on my screen, and the game of bolo will be what it is now and what it was 10 years ago. :oops:
I want I want ehhh I want new noises and I want my lgm to speak to me and say things like
"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"
"please no not again; not over there"
and when it is shot or blown up to mutter darkly
"you dirty cretin; go fix your own pill boxes"
and I want sheeps lgm to say
"baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
"please no not now"
If I ever manage to hit it
and I want extra noises when I hit a tank like vomiting and dull muffled
thuds and sharp kerrrangs and I want to see BLOOD and GUTS and
MUCOUS and and and ehhhh and I want to have dramatic WWII movie
background music whenever I take a pill box and and and if I arrive back to find all my bases taken and spiked I want to have an old-timer lying up against a smoking wreck of a base staring into the distance and I want
weapons of mass destruction that can only be used once a week but which will destroy every pixel on every bolo window (no destroy the chips and motherboards and hard drives as well), including mine if I get frustrated and I want submarines and and and
I WANT EVERYEFFINGTHING and I want it NOW.
Did you get all that Elvis?
Desmo
Desmo, that's what happens when you eat 4 bags of Skittles in 15 minutes....... :D :D :D
i think skins are good, but im not so sure abt the other vehicles crap... :? :?
btw, how do u get the soundpak on stick's website to work?
I'm all for change, but I'd also like to see a vsn. of winbolo that is a truly faithful clone of bolo gameplay. Winbolo "classic", or "WB Tournament", if you will. I've often wondered, though, what it would be like to have the scope of bolo gameplay expanded, such that the areas fought over, and the numbers of players fighting at once, can be significantly larger than what the current game allows.
The idea would be bolo "campaign": Bolo on a big island (or some larger collection of islands), maybe four times as big as the biggest area the game can currently accomodate, with a commensurate increase in player number. Individual territories could be established and controlled. Teams could start on a penninsula or island and try to take over the "world" from that "homeland".
I think the only fundamental change to the gameplay that might have to be made (besides increasing dimensions and max. player numbers) would be the ability to build bases and pillboxes. There would be some pre-existing number of bases and pills, of course; but with a large number of trees (or maybe they'd have to be trees of a special kind, and more rare than conventional trees) one could build the needed bases and pills to provide resources to expand the territory, as well as defend the areas between the "homelands" of each team. These, of course, would be rape-able and stealable, just like regular bases and pills. It would introduce a fun and mutable strategic experience, because games played on the same map could be radically different from one another, not only because of wall-building and exacvating with mines, but also because the placement of some bases could vary completely. No moving the bases, though! Once in place, they stay, making their placement an important judgement call.
Otherwise it would be shoot the pill, kill the lgm, farm the tree, rape the base, just like in winbolo "clasic".
Well...a guy can dream...
I was acually thinkin about sumthing like this. i was thinking that there would be like 70 pills and like as many bases as ya want, and you can have HUGE strongholds that are hard to take, mass attacking ppl will be FUN.! and certAin groups can have their own bases in FROEVER LASTING Games.... THAT WOULD KICK ASS! then there would be like mini armies in different areas and it would be cool and i rwally want it to happen and it would rock and wed have fun and wed love it!!!!!!1111111111 1
TAHTS what happens when you drink 5 cans of coke in 3 minutes.
WE CAN DREAM ON---
even though thisd be cool.
U know what I like to see.................Winter environments. That will me cool. I getting sick of the battlewars that take place on an island. and the ablity to shape the map when making it. For those who dunno what I mean.............adjust the width and length of the map. There could be small bush maps with a brigde or other things we could come up with. It still stays on 2d and the same graphics but a little difference.........And no the game of bolo should stay the same............Jak
