Player Piano In D3

Brilliant stuff. I'm all for sticking as many instruments in the game as possible. If the guards have whistles to alert others to your presence, Revenants could have some kind of Army of Darkness style Dans Macabre flute made of bone, while the pagan forest imps would play harps and mandolins... This piano should go in the first mansion level of the campaign in my opinion.

That's a cool idea. Guards can run to the next piano and play a coded tune that tells others where the thief is. :)

 

Seriously. I always liked it in T2 when you could even use the instruments. :)

I think in T2, the harp made a discordinant noise 50% of the time and played up some scale 50% of the time.

 

Maybe if you play an instrument really well, the AI that come bursting into the room will recognize true talent, and decide to just beat you senseless instead of kill you.

How about in the campaign, our Thief actually is a musician as well? Like plays the violin or something, like a wrong-side-of-the-law Sherlock Holmes ?

 

Also I've suggested it once already: how about all the cutscenes are in Wagnerian music-drama style? REAL DRAMATIC LIKE.

Know what's fun? Tax evasion.

 

 

In other news,

 

I've written a few musical numbers in there. It depends what NH and his voice team are up for.

 

can we get several guards doing an interpretive dance of "Who Stole The Cookie From The Cookie Jar?"

 

Personally I'd blame the Thief... :ph34r:

At the moment I've just got a leper siging about the loss of his various body parts.

 

Is it all melancholy? What if he never liked his arms? I mean, what with the constant *dangling* and all... Maybe he could bust out into something along the lines of "Singing In The Rain" on account of no longer having to deal with them pesky, unruly extremities, eh?

 

'Cause otherwise he'd pretty much just be like one of 'em fellows I pass on the subway... and those are just more smelly than scary.

 

Interesting Trivia: I was chased down a street by a bunch of teenage lepers in Lusaka. Luckily I had two legs and so could outrun them.

 

1) Lusaka... is that in Detroit?

 

2) You may have been lucky that time since they had no legs to catch you with, but what if they had jetpacks? Hmm? What would you have done then?

 

Legless lepers don't scare me, but put a jetpack on one and watch out... 'cause then you've just got problems is what you've got... flying, legless problems...

It's in Zambia. Mooother Afrrricah!!

 

I'm quite fond on the leper I've created. He's a posh fellow, the Marquis of Fountensooth. He was imprisoned by the Builders for stealing a monacle, poor thing. He didn't need his glasses anymore after his left eye fell out.

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
