New Coliseum game, by Achys and Valtiros
It’s been a very long time since we started to play lockdown, and, as many of you, we want change !
Our goal, is to create a new Player Versus Player based the most possible on “skill”.
As a matter of fact, we noticed several source of complaining in lockdown, such as Auto-aim, Uvs, trinkets . As a nutshell, everything that is linked to inherent unbalancing or unskill-basing.
We also noticed that Blast network, which is skill-based equal in equipement was never a source of frustration as lockdown is.
Nevertheless, blast network is less close to spiral knights than lockdown and we could more identify it to “bomberman “than to spiral knights and that s why, in part I think it is less successful.
What’s more, the current lockdown system can’t change I think because too many people are used to it and draw their benefits from this. Also, the equipement system ( Uvs or else) brings money to OOO and we can t remove it from them.
Thus, we think that creating a new game is the best idea.
You will say that will divide the coliseum community and as a consequence, there will be less players in each coliseum game.
Nevertheless, I met a loooot of people who quit the lockdown game out of rage because of its frustrating aspects that I mentioned above. That’s why, we are convinced that this new game, divested will appeal all those people who are fed up with the current lockdown game and who don‘t even dare to step in it now.
We also bet on the parameter : “ innovation”. Indeed novelty will appeal people into playing the game, considering that some people are tired of lockdown.
Well! Now the Idea.
We don’t have a precise idea of game completely done yet but only some loose ideas.
The purpose of this threat is to make you propose ideas and rules for the game in order for us to make together a game everyone will enjoy. Then, we will put it into “suggestions when it is ready”
First of all, let’s begin with our own proposals:
- A deathmatch, in which you have to kill your opponents to get points. The first team to get a certain amount of point wins. We ll have to take into account the number of players and the size of the map for each match to determine the number of points necessary to win ( like in lockdown).When you die, you respawn after a while ( don t know the time exactly)
- A brawl game, in which You have to kill all the players to win. The last person alive is the winner.
-A class system, in which you could choose between for instance a gunner stuff, a striker stuff a bomber stuff that would be the same for everybody so that it is fair.
- in a class system, all the tiers would be grouped and so it won’t divide the players again.
We also seek an idea to make some money for OOO without unbalancing the game.
So, Please! Criticize and mostly propose Your own ideas !! :p
PS : I apologize for my english who is very likely to be not perfect. Waiting for your answers! :p
