Wars and Village raids

    Before I even start I really hope this idea hasn't been mentioned already, If it has just tell me and I'll just let the thread die.

    So, I was thinking that there should be side quests when there are two different villages opposite of each other, there is a chance of a war or a raid side quest.

    Let's say on the left of you there is a Hylotl village, and on the right there is a Floran village. Obviously if you have read the lore you know these two races aren't exactly compatible on the same planet. So you talk to one of the guards and he tells you that the Floran Village has declared war on them and they are recruiting and you just accept the quest and go to the designated area to start the war. You also have the choice of siding with either races, Floran or Hylotl. And depending on what sector you are in the amount of waves of enemies changes (alpha sector 2 waves, Beta sector 3 waves, Gamma sector 5 waves, Delta sector 7 waves, X sector 10 waves etc.) And there should be some kind of aesthetic change (if possible) to the opposing village (If hylotl win the Floran village becomes more beautiful, if the Floran win The Hylotl village turns into a prison etc.)

    And Raids have the same requirements (2 different villages etc.) except you go to a guard and lets say, the opposing village has a weapon or a kidnapped local etc. So you go to the guard and you get to pick which AI partner guard joins you (max = 3) all with different weapon combinations. (Partner 1 has a dagger + shield, his alt weapon is a pistol. Partner 2 has a broadsword and alt weapon is a shotgun). And you go to the village and kill everyone in the village, get the objective item and come back to the guard that gave you the quest to get your reward.

    "a war system would be kind of cool (said the commander) but in your post you said you'd round up some npc's and kill everyone in the opposite village. I do think that's a bit brutal. maybe instead you just get rid of the guards and raise your sides flag, and maybe you just put them under village wide house arrest. I just think their should be different task based on the following factors" - CommanderBenny


    "For humans and avian they could be fighting over an artifact the avian want for religious importance and the humans want for research...
    village of avians and a research team of humans" - CountArkas


    "defend villages from other things like bandit attacks" - CommanderBenny

    i'm personaly a fan of this war stuff. if it was in multiplayer... there would be sooo much chaos!
    as a suggestion, there should be npc's that fight in the background kind-of-thing.
    other than that its a really good idea

    Thanks man, I really wanted to have some kind of planet scale war. There are times where there are two villages of different races, and realistically, if one race came first and another one came to the planet right after and they are different races, there would be tension between the two villages.

    I am guessing you are talking about a race on one planet attacking a race on another planet. Well there is gonna be space combat from what I have heard so that MAY be a reality.

    When they say space combat, they mean ships blasting each other apart. What I was talking about was one race invades another race on one of their planets and you get caught in the cross-fire because you were adventuring.

I do think that's a bit brutal. maybe instead you just get rid of the guards and raise your sides flag, and maybe you just put them under village wide house arrest. I just think their should be different task based on the following factors

    1 village race
    2 crime that caused war

    still though, great idea man :up:
    now prepare for my emoticon invasion!

    Commander Benny Phantasmal Quasar

    well I'm no Modder but I am a decent idea man so if you need someone to think of maybe some quests related to this or you need to call on my strategy gaming expertise to know what a more realistic war feeling is, than just call me, and remember to credit me for my stuff;)

    Desolator Pangalactic Porcupine

    Ok. That's good to know
     
  15. Commander Benny

    Commander Benny Phantasmal Quasar

    so how about I just rattle off some ideas as to why villages or even planets would go to war? should I do that?
     
  16. Desolator

    Desolator Pangalactic Porcupine

    probably. we know that florans and hylotl hate each other. we'll start from there. possibly some lore with background information as to why these two races hate each other. (i'm just shooting out ideas here)

    For humans and avian they could be fighting over an artifact the avian want for religious importance and the humans want for research.

    By the way these would probably be a village of avians and a research team of humans.

    A mod would be cool, but I have zero modding experience sadly so I couldn't really help..
