My Ideas (SPARTA)

Hello all, yes another server which has been in the works for sometime is again here! I know there are tons and I am not gonna sit here and say ours is the best because it doesnt have the best GFX, it doesnt have the best scripting(pretty good though)

One thing I offer with Sparta is UNIQUE ideas and some other things which I have only seen on one other server(doomsday)

My first idea is(not unique but I like it) 3 overworlds.. At the beginning you choose between

Gunroth - A regular/Standard continent with a few islands surrounding it.

Kojima - The chinese continent which was created by the Fire God Kojimae, (Kojima means Fire in chinese)

Guild - In Sparta, guilds and people have the ability to buy islands on a seperate overworld. Players will be given the files for that specific island and they can build up their island and invite people to them. (We check the islands to make sure they are not cheap)

No, I do not have many screen shots and I am not going to beg for you to join the staff as we dont need any... But Here are some more ideas

Baddies/Quests - Most servers only have a few quests and these are for things such as hearts. You see people with 20 hearts who go around and pk newbies. In Sparta, the quests will be longer and more involved. Quests will include things such as greedy lords who want a specific item but are to afraid to get it on their own.... (made that off the top of my head so they will be better)

Alright I will tell you more on request but please dont ask to be staff I guess I will include the UNBUILT maps...

HAHA here is the guilds overworld....

Just so no one flames me about this...

At the beginning the player does not know about the other continents(well he does but like the map)

In a quest you can receive the complete world map and in another quest you will be able to help a man make a boat that can cross the deep waters...

Each island on the GUILD is about 3 levels-6 levels and thats because people can buy them and put up their own quests... Which I also beileve will reduce servers because then people can just make their own little island instead of making a 10 level server like I see all over


If you read all the text.. I explain why there is 3 maps

um... I dont know what to say about that either.. The skull thing in the 2nd map is kinda neat, and one of a kind, but 3 maps?!?! That player world would take atleast 3 - 6 years with 4 - 6 people working on it.

LOL true... but as I said

Guild Map will be built by the players...

The skull is going to be part of a quest...


Well here we go... I will explain how we are going to build it...

To start out A large city in Kojima and Gunroth will be available... these will be the "Capital" cities and will have around 5 quests each... We have a very dedicated team so we will probably update like 4 times a week(or more)

I understand that not many servers get up I just hope this one can... We are very ambitious but I am pretty sure with our dedication we can make it...

(Im not saying we will)
Anyway I will update on our progress we have a team of staff for Kojima and Gunroth and might start looking for GR(Guild Reviewers)

Kojima Screens

Hey Guys,

This is already in the Level Editing but this also has to do with the playerworld and I would like to see if yall think Kojima would look good etc,

I would of course smooth out the roof etc but hey! Oh well I will later!

from the looks of it and what i've read about your server.....it sounds like a good idea.....cause on most servers staff are stingy and won't let you do much with npcs and such.....keep at it...i support ya in you and your friends in making it....good luck

Thanks dude,

Here are some updates


Gunroth is going up pretty fast......

Player Islands will be around 5,000G for an average island, you will then be taxed by the amount of houses you have... and how big they are... However, money will be quite easy to get but not super easy...

For instance, each baddies will drop probably 10G or less but there is a lot of them... The quests you can get from 10G-5000G

The worlds will expand as needed for the ammount of users we have

Kojima is at a halt construction while we think about how to make everything... We will be starting in a few days.

Guild Island has it's first island, it's the smallest one Ill show you a ss

I pesonally think that sounds like crap
No offense but i dont like servers where i have that much money it makes things boring!
And btw the only way teh review for your PW will have the word pass on it is if you can actually but these "ideas"
to graal itself =\
And levels all we have seen is a generated map with a lot of islands
one of them with a couple of houses on them so you better get working instead of telling us your "brilliant ideas"

Uhhhh We are working, like I said we had a whole world done but decided to make it bigger... Generated Maps speed up your work so you can have better quality levels and not worry about making the structure and linking them...

The overworld for Gunroth should be DONE in about 2 weeks or maybe a month at max...

And, the money is a lot yes but stuff doesnt cost lke 50g only, we havent exactly decided but Baddies will give away G it wont be stupid and impossible to get money unless you work for 500 hours pressing B... Money WILL be hard to get as the NPC's will be pretty hard...

Don't use generator, it's practicly an automatic playerworld failure.

so might as well make all those levels by hand

Generator is Shitty. Go ahead and use it if you want, you will just be using precious time and wasting your life away, you stubborn freak.

Do you have any idea what Sparta is like, to name your PW after it?
I don't think the idea of three seperate overworlds is too ingenious :/
You'll need a lot of custom GFXes and stuff, to make three continents with special themes.
