We are making a StarWars game for BYOND, and well, decided to ask the community what they want in it, because you all will be the ones that will be playing it. Your suggestions will be considered greatly. Anything from story, character creation to gameplay mechanics would be appreciated. Hope you all help and we look forward to making it!

P.S. It is multi-tiled so maybe that will help in suggestions as well.

[EDIT]

We have a name for the game now.
Maybe use "the force" to slash ppl with your saber multiple tiles away..0_0

You shouldn't focus on just the force. Make it so people can be bounty hunters, or pilots. Have a whole range of possibilities. But to become jedi or sith make it so they have to learn to use a lightsaber and such, instead of just ' You get a lightsaber! You now know force push!'. And maybe you could customize your lightsaber. Like you can have the different crystals, red, green, blue, and purple (Note: Yellow is not actually a lightsaber colour! George Lucas himself said that yellow wasn't a colour until after episode 6. Even then there was only one of them.). Also for training in the force make them have to meditate and study. Make it hard to become a jedi so that people aren't always owning everyone else. I have plenty more but that would take forever to type.

[Edit] More!
For the timeline I think you should put it right after episode 3 where the jedi purge just happened so there aren't very many jedis. And it makes it hard for people to train.


[Off Topic]Ummm... Aren't you guys working on Canton Regions? Or that other tactical game or something? Or did you just give up on those and now your starting a starwars game?

Thanks for asking. No, we have not given up on them. We are still working on Canton Regions. We were originally going to open it recently, but we really want to make it good so we are taking our time with it instead of rushing. We have other side projects, but this and Canton are our main priorities at the moment. Yes, we have about one-two games that we could actually allow the community to play right now, but we are not sure if we would want to do that at this moment. We might be able to soon if everyone wants us too (=P). Plus we will need a host for them as well.

No yellow is a lightsaber color It's in all the KOTOR games.

Make it good and as origianl as a fan-based game can be.

Ya but they just did that to add another colour. George Lucas wasn't near the production of those games so he didnt relly have a say.

lol First off.. My last iconer decided to put that yellow and force crystals in there.. And second if you feel as though you can spend countless hours coding other stuff liek bounty hunters. then be my guest. And furthermore how did you know what was in the game? I do not have a link for you to dwnld it.
If you were to make a fan-game, it would be more appreciated if you created it in the setting of the Star Wars universe. You could still refer the player to some of the movie/book characters, but it would be more interesting if there was another plot, instead of the one which exists as we know it.

That probably won't take countless hours, up to an hour at most.
Star Wars fangames are as bad as DBZ fangames.

Um, what're you going on about? I don't see in any of the games where someone said anything about your game?

And please stick to the topic, he asked what do you want to see in a Star Wars game? He didn't ask what you thought about them, so if you don't like them, then please just keep comments like this to yourself.

Sorry you feel this way. If you would like to post in this topic then at least post something productive; if you cannot then please do not post at all. Thank you.

They're not unwanted or unneeded, the topic creator asked for opinions, he got opinions. No matter how biased or stupid they may seem, they're still opinions.
In response to Ol' Yeller
He asked for opinions as for what to put in the game. I'm sure he doesn't want the player to login and the first things he says are bold letters saying, 'Star Wars fan games are as bad a DBZ fangames'. :P
