Hey guys, As we all know, D: OS is going to have four main zones. I'm proposing an idea for adding a new zone to the D: OS game. I can't really say how large I want it to be, since we don't know how large the game's zones are going to be, but I'm eventually looking at around 10 hours of content. I want the zone to have a "Main Quest"(It'll actually be a side-quest in the game..  ), which lasts throughout the zone. It'll begin as a simple quest a little after the zone starts, but will soon progress through many twists and turns to become something else, entirely. I want it to incorporate a lot of choice and consequence, utilizing both the co-op dialogue system as well as your choices during the quest to influence the quest ending. I'm aiming for around 7 hours of the zone quest and around 3 hours of the side quests. And yeah, I want to add a zombie town or an undead town where the residents are all zombies or undead(even the animals) and have them neutral towards the player and he can get quests from them too. Some of the zone quest story should also take place here, ideally. What do you think? |

I'm liking the sound of that, especially the non-hostile undead. The perfect place for the wise cracking ghost or zombie of the zone. I'm sure that gives the story group enough to work with for getting quests and such done also.

That's great! What kind of modding are you looking to do, actually? I have the high level idea in place, and I can add a few side-quest ideas, but we'll need someone who has experience being a DM in order to create the main quest.
My primary work is going to be level design and scripting.

That sounds good. The setting is nice, and maybe there would be a way to tie it in to either a side quest from one of the other zones, or make it a tie in in some way to the 'main' quest from D:OS.

regnox, Of course.. We should make it an unofficial rule that every Story Based or Quest Based mod made by a weresheep member must have some weresheep lore/secret/easter egg included.. :-) @toravah..  @stormiv, Yeah.. That's what I thought too.. Maybe add new triggers for some of the quests from the other zones.. EDIT: Corrected a little mistake thanks to garod.

I don't think it should be a rule, besides if it's an armor mode or terrain mode then it's simply not easy to do that

A lot of potential here.....this could even be something similar to full blown expansions though small areas can be created too. I won't be thinking of creating full areas for a while....I need to learn the editor and I'll start by trying to create some characters and seeing if I can get some small quests and dialogues going initially before I start thinking big things.
If I can really learn the editor well then I'll look at creating areas and so on.

I've always loved to try modding, only problem always seems to be that I don't have an artistic bone in my body. I did try my hand at writing short stories a long time ago.
Will be interesting to see how this will all work =)

@darth, Yeah, I guess actual work on this mod won't get started until we have a month or so with the editor under our belts.. :-D.. What I'm aiming for is kind of like an expansion "mini"-pack.. garod, Yeah.. I tried my hand at writing fanfiction a while back.. It was pretty well received, but I never could go more than a few chapters when real life intervened.. I still want to continue it though.. I had some pretty cool ideas planned for it.. |
