Burricks - Should We Make More?

[Darkness_Falls]

I found this post over at ISA (http://forums.ionstorm.com/index.php?showt...ndpost&p=342075). Are there any desires here in DarkMod to make multiple versions of Burricks?

 

I liked burricks so much I had to make several different types:

 

Frost Burricks (breath freezing ice clouds)

Huge Frost Burricks (Very big Frost Burricks)

Fat Frost Burricks (Very fat Frost Burricks)

Giant Frost Burricks (Dinasour sized)

Lava Burricks (Glowing hot, and spits lava blobs)

Shadow Burricks (Black Burricks with white eyes that breath dark energy)

Swamp Chompers (The green Burricks really bite!)

Skeletonal Burricks (The undead kind)

Actually I would prefer different types of animals. We already talked about this. Dogs, sheep, cows, etc.

[Darkness_Falls]

Right, I remember those discussions regarding other animals. Which I agree to. But I wasn't sure if there was a desire for different breeds of burricks, or not.

I guess we can do more later. For now it's enough if we have one type and we agreed to make different sized ones.

Hmmm, I wouldn't be too keen on frost burricks or lava burricks. I'm quite happy with the standard Burrick/ Belcher myself.

[Springheel]

I don't see any need for different burricks. One is enough.

Awww, look everyone, it's a frost belcher.

 

 

 

[New Horizon]

:lol:

[Darkness_Falls]

Aww, cute!

 

Yeah, I don't need more belchers, but thought I'd bring it up for discussion anyways.

[Domarius]

This is a good a place to ask this as any.

 

For little desicions like this, is it worth me making it "official" in the desicions board, or should we just rely on people using the search feature of the forum?

[god_is_my_goldfish]

I dunno, we should probably have a sticky that covers all decisions made.

[Domarius]

We do, it's called the desicions board.

 

I'm just asking if even the littlest desicions need to go in there.

[Springheel]

I don't think we need to put every little thing in there. Just the more significant decisions.

[god_is_my_goldfish]

Sorry, never realised that was sitting there.

[sparhawk]

Are you talking about the decision board or the design board? ALL decisions should go into the design board. That's the point of it.

[Domarius]

(What a weird place to have this discussion )

 

Well I've only been updating the Desicions board.

 

Perhaps some desicion needs to be made on what makes a desicion and what makes it design.

I wonder why eveybody is opposed to using the design section. People complain that postings are to long and blablabla and now THIS is better???

 

Everything not even in one single thread but in one single posting!

[Domarius]

Just tell me how it should be done guys, and it shall be done. I started that post with a paragraph saying so.

There are already documents in the design section. But since it is to much work to read them I wonder what's the point of it anyway.

[Domarius]

(Go the burricks thread!)

 

Desicions made, with summaries of the discussion, are different than design documents, which have explicit instructions on how things are done, right?

 

What I'll do for now, is seperate each idea into posts. That'll make way more sense.

I can't edit Springs and do the same with his, so unless I re-post his, I'll have to let him do it himself.

I created a sticky just for that. You should attach your postings there, because the design section is for agreed and approved ideas, while the idea thread is just a collection of loose ideas we shouldn't forget.

[Domarius]

Would it be easier for a mod to move them? For me it involves editing each post, copying the contents, making a new post, and pasting the contents in, and submitting, for each one. Not fast on a 56k.

 

I was just following Springs "grand desicion thread". Have you had a look? It's not the "idea's thread" that you made earlier. It's for concluded discussions.

[Springheel]

I was just trying to get all our major decisions down in one place. Your posts go into much more detail, Domarius, and kind of make mine redundant anyway, I think.

Actually most of the stuff you posted in there is not decided yet, it just has been discussed, but no final decision has been reached. As for moving. I think you can't move postings. You just can move an entire thread. So I would suggest that you continue with the ideas thread, where appropriate and leave this one as it is.

 

As people already complained about having to read long postings, I guess nobody will read it either way. Except me it seems.
