Test Mmo Shooter

[Rustygames]

Hi chaps,

This time I'm sure it will work as planned :P

Wait a minute for the game to fully load, then click quick play

Arrow keys move, mouse to shoot
Hold ctrl to view scores (if someone comes up as undefined, it means they quit)
Press enter to chat, type your message, then enter again to send

This is obviously just a beta, so there is some weird stuff (such as undefined people as mentioned above), also note the game never ends

Please let me know what sort of ping (top left corner) you're getting and also what you think of the game :)

Your other thread is still on the front page. And there still aren't enough people playing. BOO.

* Sound (obviously)
* I would be nice if i could crouch :P
* Rather than just saying xxx got pwned maybe change it to 'xxx got pwned by yyy'
* More guns

I'm sure you know about a lot of these as it still seems in the early stages of development :P
Has potential though, just a bit boring at the moment :P

Ping 50 if theres a lot going on, 115 if not much going on.

That's very nice. I was the only player in my group who was playing so it was quite boring.

Still doesn't work. Flash player 10 :P

"3/4 players found" - all I see when I click Quick Play.

Does anyone else think the view is too close?

Someone was saying that they think the whole thing should be zoomed out a bit so you can see more of the battlefield at once.

This is more of a test to see if the real time shooter excited people, if it's successful then I'll be doing more weapons, maps and features.

Thanks for the input so far guys, I'll leave this online until tommorow night, so it's gonna be about for 24 hours of testing goodness :)

Thanks again

I think you should back the view up a little.
Couldn't see anything.

Ah ok, I thought it was a game developer :)

I'll see what popular opinion says, but I think it's fine since it is the original idea of the game

If you go to quickplay, rightclick and hit play, then hit quickplay, it connects you twice.

Do it 4 times and you can play, but all the people do the exact same moves you do.

Ha ha nice bug :)
I'll disable right click in the final game

Reminds me of Ben 10 Alien Force: Bounty Hunters.

That looks more similar to unreal flash than this, although it does have similarities. The close up view definitely makes it different, I'm not sure if its good or not though.

I'm not fond of the close-up view, personally. It makes it really hard to aim because you practically have to be right next to people to be able to shoot them. I was lucky enough to get in with a group of 4 actual people and the combat was very difficult because of how zoomed-in everything was.

Where can i find a server for my games to run on? If you can tell me where to find one i can finish my game rock online.

[Wolfears2]

I'll make a movie, if there are any spaces and if it's ok.

[liam]

Uh, ok, i kinda got it to work but there were 2 of everyone :o anyway, the controls are a bit stale, the animation too.. should be much more fluid.

Just make Unreal Flash online multiplayer.

[Wolfears2]

Yep, wrong thread. My apologies. =/

[Rustygames]

Thanks for all your feedback chaps
