But there is no storyline.

 

Also, amount/variety of classes effects your gameplay and progression.

Actually there is, this takes place during the time when Equestria was newly founded (Hearth's Warming Eve for reference), but a little different because not all species hate each other.

I think it would be a good idea to keep wars a bit more organized than your usual kill-em-dead Minecraft massacre. Say for instance issuing a thread to request a war and having it over a specific timeline (like a certain month or given date), while only those who actually registered to partake in it can be in.

Oh, then there could be a point system for every kill, but that should be figured out later I guess. :P

Maybe, for those who don't want PVP, we could also see which species earns the most money or xp on average during the time (of course to compete you'd have to say that you will. We don't want inactive players mucking with the scores.)

My original idea was to post a thread with a date and a rooster for each side. Location and objectives will be discussed. A simple method like CTF or deathmatch system cqn be used. We could use a timer to speed it up. Ideas are not finalized and with college up and coming, might be delayed to a weekend only event.

Well the simplest idea is just to say a date and just go nuts. But thats chaotic and wont give us a clear winner. Rosters help because it helps us know who is coming and gives others and obligation to show up. Point systems could work.

I guess for the Darcque we could nerf them a bit, i like the idea, but dont have much suggestions for it.

 

Perhaps make them more connected to wolves instead of powerful magic.

 

Like;

Wolf summoning for a short time, or skills for the wolves.

 

As far as i can tell, they are a kind of 'evil' class of ponies.

They are a bit Dark, but not inherently evil. They are just extremely arrogant, yet reclusive.
I'd like avoid pushing to much into wolves as I wanted their power revolve around dark magic and disabling.

For Nerfing I would suggest only Long cool downs, High mana cost, and Reasonable range/duration.

Again If I wanted to push into wolves more, I'd would have pushed into Zebra or Earth Pony. I decisively chose unicorn as a racial baseplate for a dark magic as opposed to any other form of pony.

Another note they are supposed to be ground alternatives for the Bat Pony, power-wise not lore-wise.

I suppose, but I'd need to write new lore to explain their existence. They can't just appear out of thin air as intelligent Timberwolves who know advanced dark magic. And Timberwolves we already know are not the brightest group of creatures to exist being that they are made of magic filled wood marking them more like Golems really.

With my current Town Plans I could develop a Lore from that I suppose.

Just keep in mind I'm aiming for A Negative-Crystal, Anti-Air (specifically Anti Bat) type, Race and Lore come after all the Powers are worked out.

Okay. They are an elite devision of golems crafted long before peace was known by the Queen of unicorns herself to battle the pegasi. However, after the events of the first hearths warming eve, the Queen ordered them disbanded and destroyed. But, she had crafted their internal spell matrixes a little to well, for they had little trouvle comprehending and evading their demise, even against the Earthbound. The fled through the mountains and into the new land and took refuge in the forest Ever Free from the ponies control. Years later, hundreds and hundreds, their spell matrixes would break down, turning them into little more than wild dogs. But for now, they are intelligent, they are powerful, and they are feared.

I have an idea for something us players of colonization could do; some kind of Death Games challenge. I don't think it really needs to be implemted in with plugins, but that might make it easier. If you aren't familiar with what the Death Games are, then check this out: http://mindcrack.alt...iki/Death_Games

Participation in this is entirely optional, and there doesn't need to be any prize from the victim for getting killed, so I think this might be a way to spice things up on the colonization a bit and make things interesting. This can be an entirely community-based game if there are enough people that want this to happen.

the skill would be to be able to create (with a special recipe) or spawn in (with bonemeal or something else) the rare flowers that are decreasing in numbers, due to ponies eating them.

 

These rarer flowers are not able to be reproduced, unlike IRL or even in the show- they multiply, and this is a earthpony thing to do

According to a minecraft wiki:

http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Flowers

According to that chart you only need plains, swamp and flower forrest biomes to satisfy all flower growth requirements. I think the only region we are missing at current is flower forrest. (when I find a suitable location, that will not be an issue anymore)

It'd be silly to have a hybrid species in col, you're supposed to choose a class and having a mix of whichever two classes defeats that. I'd rather have very few very exclusive classes than a wide range of ones with shared skills. I mean, this isn't ability draft.

We should have more threads in the roleplay section! Only reason I haven't started some myself is because nobody really posts there since it is so new... I guess I'm a bit nervous to. I do have a few good ideas for threads there though. Just as long as I can be sure that there'll be activity in that forum instead of only having about 3 or 4 posts.


Also, we really, really, really should make a video trailer for Colonizations. I'm already working out a script, because, ya know, fan freakouts and stuff.

Pretty sure we've already got a story for col, don't we? You know, this one:

 

Equestria: Colonizations is a roleplay survival world. You are a pioneer that has come south from the frozen ancestral pony lands to colonize this new land of Equestria. Choose between one of five races and make your way out into the world. Make your home in a town or on your own, explore dungeons, fight monsters, unlock new abilities. This new land is yours to conquer!

 

It could definitely do with some fleshing out, though. Maybe in the trailer we could also have explanations about the different towns and merge them into the story. So, that'd be an explanation of why certain towns have been set up in certain places, etc.

Anyone up for trailer making? Someone with a good computer and Fraps should probably volunteer for graphics shots with shaders and such. We'll probably figure it out later, it just has to be a good trailer. :P

Either ways, I was wondering, what if there were more enemies to Colonizations? Like wolves (renamed to timberwolves, obviously.) If we could add in more special uncommon enemies/neutral/friendly plugin-based mobs, things would get pretty interesting for this gamemode. What do you guys think?

Also, I think there should be a team to go out and create lore-based locations around the world so that we can develop a nice story. We also still need that main antagonist...

new suggestion

 

In the market channel, either make a new announcement system, or make an available list listing all of the available offers/trades that anypony has, to advertise their business. This should also be available when they are offline, as long as they officially have a shop open with the item in it. The price can be specials, like, up-front trading with the person when they are online, special deals only then, and then the shops can do the same price or different.

Or, the offer must be made in a shop, and mus have a nice supply (which the admins or mods can check on before they allow the offer), and the offer cannot move from the said place. The offer must be in a market area of a town, to limit multiple offers in one area, which is just inconvenient.

 

So, obviously, we would need to figure out a way to establish a set location for a specific offer. We also need to figure out how to make the list more 'live', with some control like - deletion, price changes, etc. But we also don't want anything inappropriate to pop up in our chats, if say, someone were to change/create an offer that was only just swearing, etc.

To solve that part, we would need to make a deposit, where we can leave information about our offers on the forums/in-game, so that moderators or admins can look them over and add them in.

 

Most likely not worth the bothering, but it would be nice to have a 'permanent' list of what offers there are for stuff on Col.

 

 

This will be advertisement for towns too. How does one know where a special item for a town is sold? How does one know if a town is selling anything anyways?

anyways, if you did create another hive, it would be deserted as there are barely enoigh players to go around

So like, not enough ponies for anything right now unless you bring in more or something... :/

my idea was more along the lines of, if people liked the idea my character (the first of the new hive) could simply be a scout looking for new land for the hive to move to or something.

 

 

We actually use an altered implementation of that, however, keep in mind that Carnifex made it for present EQ, and we're in the colonizing era so far.

yes I know they are. I was thinking of maybe Nekropolis Hive when Calliphora was younger and more inexperienced, since as far as I know there's no set age limit for changelings, and Nekropolis' setup is one that could easily survive long periods in hiding.

 

Edit: seems there's no interest in the idea. *shrugs*

Might want to stop Zombies from Picking up eggs, or prevent Baby Zombies from riding chickens. I found and cleared three pits full of 8~12 Zombies holding eggs.

The mechanism that prevents mobs from despawning when they are holding items means that Zombies will form hordes and clusters underground around chickens.

Right, so I don't know how to post a photo, but floating islands in Equestria is canon! In The Return of Harmony, Discord removes houses from the ground and  sends them floating into the air, but, not just as they are, but floating upon tiny Islands!

They probably only are considering plugins, because you don't have to install anything client-side to see effects. I believe we do have an npc plugin in the server though.

Red, what are you trying to imply with the floating island thing? I don't really get you...

Red, even though it might be canon, that was chaos at work. It wasn't natural, in other words. And if there ever were to be, they would have to be really nice floating islands that are good quality

I'm not fuming. Dash mcstarly said that if I could show him floating islands within canon mlp it'd okay to build them. This may be a little on the wire, but wouldn't the untamed wild of the newly discovered equestria be a little chaotic? Barring even that, floating islands fit right in to the environment of magic ponies. But, mcstarly asked for canon. And Discord is canon.

This timeline might not be suited for that. This world is set in a time right after the event showed during the Hearth's Warming Eve. ((I could be wrong.)) I am not sure where discord came to play but if he was around, He would have effected all of the world since he was the ruler of all equestria during his reign

I think Discord was a few decades after Heath's Warming, since Celestia and Luna seemed to be grown mares in their fight against Discord during Twi's flashbacks, and there was no mention of the two in the Hearth's Warming story. just my 2 cents

I've realized I no longer care. My only vindication was that mcstarly said to 'show us a canon floating land-mass and this will be a non-issue.'. It might seem like my example doesn't count, but that's what (s)he said.

Just because we do not reply to the thread does not mean we are not looking at it, the purpose of this thread is like an open suggestions box. We basically see the suggestions and if we think they are beneficial to the colonizations server, then we go about trying to make them happen in some form.

What if we do story driven events such as maybe small story arcs with their own villians etc?

Example
Tirek and his brother first come to equestria, its a good example for a past event that happened in the show that could be expanded apon

seasons does sound nice too. except the frozen north would have to be still frozen due to how much snow is there, event wise it would be a long like arc,
for the better effect of having something like Tirek or other main story characters we'd likely have to use the sentry plugin

I like the idea. There would be more roleplay. I suggest someone starts with animals going frenzy in the forests. There are a lot of ponytales of myths like The pony of Shadows, The headless Horse, and there could be much, much more.

-Enable pvp in colonizations
-Add this plugin or something similar for all classes. http://sethbling.com/BlingPickpocket
-Implement these rules as a requirement for Col:


No kill on sight (KOS) rule

Killing another player must always be justified by the role playing and the actions specified in this rule; there are several situations where you can kill another player:

You have to make contact with the target before initiating a hostile action against it. You must make your hostile intention clear and unambiguous and state each demand before you can harm the victim(s) for non-compliance.

You can take revenge for a hostile action taken against you for 2 hours from the time hostile action was taken, as long as it does not conflict with the other rules.

You may only share KoS rights when you meet both of the following conditions:

You are within viewing distance of the hostile situation at the time of occurrence.
You were recently a part of the involved parties group.

Those who control the freedom of their victim(s) must do everything in their power to keep their victim(s) alive and in relatively good health, unless they have good in character reason to execute their victim(s). Otherwise the victim(s) may only be executed by their captor if they do not comply with demands or if they pose a direct threat to them.


New Life Rule (NLR)

When you die you lose memories surrounding the event that led to your death - that means running back to the area after dying is forbidden. However, you keep the knowledge about your group, friends, enemies and other people that you've met before that event.

I have pros and cons for these. Let me state them:

 

Pros:

 

People would have a better reason to even make threats, much less attack. I was attacked 4 times, and each time it had nothing to do with RP at all. The first two was just plain stupid, the third was stupid and random, and the third was stupid, random, not even my fault, and very, very confusing, which cost me a lot of resources to rebuild.

 

The prisoner idea actually sounds great, its more only who would actually follow it, rather than just killing whoever instantly.

 

Cons:

 

These rules remind me a lot of DarkRP, which is a game mode in the popular sandbox game Garry's Mod. I actually played many many hours of this before I was on Brohoof, and I'll just say, the experience was more "Oh gosh guys, follow the rules or else the admins will ban us" than actually RPing, since they were very restricted.

 

Colonizations is apply-to-get-in, and adding more restriction stuff isn't really going to make the experience as much fun as it would seem. And there aren't that many people who are on col anyway. Probably about only 15 people are still active and play at least 2 or 3 times per week. If we could somehow get more people to get on, or just have another way to let outsiders apply to get into col, it could be enough for these rules to even make sense.

 

 

Don't judge me on what I think, its only my opinion and my outside experience. Greeb, what you're saying is great, its only a matter on if it will actually work. Its like Communism. When people came up with it on paper, seemed like the best idea in the world. Look what happened to the countries that were communist.

You do realize this is for all classes, so that when it comes to playing the highwayman/bandit/thief, you can do it more realistically. The plugin itself is balanced as well, showing only for a moment one particular item before moving to the next, meaning the thief has to act quick to steal the items. Back to the first rule, hostility has its limits and the victim has to be left in a survivable state. All the information was there for you yet you simply ignored it. What is it with people doing that?

I think they would not necessarily be enforced rules as such. More like necessary guidelines to be read through before people put their application through. This could be how it is presented to them.

(Seth, wai you no documentation?)

 

PVP is always on.

 

Unlike Col1, there is no roleplay purpose behind Col2. It is simply an option. To bind roleplay to PVP rules would also by extension see them bound to Vehicle and Raid rules.

 

Oh God, the drama and paranoia of Captor/Victim. Even unarmed, most classes can pose a threat to those near; executions could be quite common.

 

New Life Rule is completely impossible to enforce.

 

Always assume that people don't read anything more than required to achieve what they seek. If they are only guidelines (i.e. not enforced unless self-imposed, and again, assuming they read them), always assume that people will choose the easiest or most convenient solution presented to them that accomplishes their goals.

this one had wither, fireball, pulled you towards it, and seemed to have a general AOE damage attack... weak or not that's ridiculous, especially against new players.
