I like jumping puzzles. Have you ever played Prince of Persia? I wasn't crazy over the combat, but I loved the acrobatics. Lugaru needs supaer extreme acrobatics, and I'll be happy.

In the Temple campaign there's a level called svenfort. The first time I played that level I had fun just by walljumping, flipping, and doing weird stuff.

There had better not be moving, floating platforms in Lugaru 2.

Yeah, maybe not floating platforms, but what you said, like Prince of Persia type puzzles. Prince of Persia rocks! Hmmm... something else to add. Got any more ideas?

Oh yeah, wall running! If there's a gap thats too far and there's a wall, you can use a certain button to run along the wall!

i think that if an anthropomorphic rabbit can't get over a gap, it wasn't made to be jumped over

I sorta liked the floating levels. Although just floating is rather silly. Maybe if they were haning from something or suspended from something it might make them more realistic and cool. Like rope ladders from one high cliff to another. stuff like that.

And if it's suspended chopping the suspension with someothing will make the thing dangle from only 3 things, so if you cut 2 ropes on the same side of something suspended by 4 ropes it will tip on its side, or the weight will make the remaining ropes break. That would be sweet.

Yeah, sounds pretty cool. Like Metal Gear Solid 3. I cut every single supension chord on that damn bridge. But no floating/moving platforms please.

That would be pretty awesome to cut some ropes, Make the platform tip at an angle and watch as the bad bunnies slide over the edge to their death. :J

It could be like that game Black, where you can shoot different things which affects everything around it.

Like say you use your bow and arrow to shoot off a couple of ropes that are holding a rock over a bridge (the baddies never were that smart). It crashes down onto the bridge in front of two bad bunnies, which of course breaks the bridge in half. Then one of them starts to fall off... in his panic, he grabs the other bunny by the leg to stop him from falling off, and after a few seconds of the other bunny fighting to stay on solid ground, they're both pulled down the cliff. Since it was an "accident", you won't be detected... but now how do you get over the bridge to where you needed to go?

That's the kind of gameplay that I like, where everything has a positive and negative consequence.

Yeah, sounds like a pretty nice idea. It'd be difficult to implement things like that into the gameplay, though. Why was the rock there again?

When not murdering and raping innocent rabbit families, the raiders enjoy stone crafting, cooking, and long walks on the beach. (provided there are lots of said families on the beach at the time)

I think that Lugaru 2 should be separate from voice chat. It's a game, not a conference call! Voice chat is what teamspeack is for.

You sound particularly well-informed on this topic. Guys, I think he's a raider scout here to spy on the forums.

Don't listen to Gramps! He's going senile on us! I'm as innocent as anyone else here... I bet HE'S the raider scout, spying on US!

Renegade_Turner · Post by **Renegade_Turner** » Sat Aug 05, 2006 5:26 pm

Hey, you can't go senile at sixteen. It's just like a raider scout to try to turn the blame back on the other person!

Psh. Alright Gramps. You "got me". Now go on over to the bathroom and make sure to take your barbiturates this time.
