I like it more It sexes my head.

QFT

Would DeiselPunk be something similar to the art style of Last Exile?

I like the idea though, very grimy and gritty.

Diesel Punk? That actually looks supper cool....

Also more locations would be super sexy too.

Diesel Punk = more bad ass steam punk

I like it!

ok so was playing with 3 more environments for a diesel punk themed map. inspired mainly by Craig Mullins one of my favorite artists


1. a domed city like Big O, or the spirits within

2. Maybe a lava like society, uses lava to power some of their tech or maybe the culture grew up on a lava planet (thinking star wars that lava planet in the latest movie)

3. Maybe an ice world or perhaps up in the mountains someplace. could also be barren or is a craggy place like thousand needles in WOW

Shouldn't this have been decided upon yesterday?

This should have been decided last week but I am keeping it open wee bit longer...

Diesel Punk Paris?

(just throwing down an idea, meant to post ages ago)

Diesel punk sounds awesome.

@Eltrex06: Lava punk?

well more of a location than a style...just throwing out ideas

and hay lava punk... its unique isn't it?!?

Diesel punk looks awesome. I also like the idea of combining it with lava, or maybe a boiler/furnace room. Would allow some nice lighting.

Another vote for lava punk then ;)

I'm finding it hard to imagine a lava setting- I just keep thinking of the end of Star Wars epIII!

lol Starwars episode 3, and t2 Judgment day were what i was thinking. also was kinda thinking of Riddick, the prison planet crematoria. just a very unforgiving dark nasty place you would avoid at all costs

i would imagine a lot of factories, foundries, geothermal plants, cat walks above the lava. could even go as far as the entire city/level is inside a mountain suspended above the lava....(hate to say it but something like Blackrock Mountain in wow, but full of technology)

edit: ohh had another thought. (going back to the steam punk) We could have a steam punk shinny wood copper look above. Floating in the sky in giant blimps or floating levels (like suggested before) and then down below we have the harsh lava world unforgiving ect.

could even go as far as having one of the blimps chained to a mountain or something allowing people to play in both worlds

Your first idea reminds of the level in the Transformers game on the PS2 made by ATARI where you fight megatron. That game was AMAZING!

I also love the blimp idea .

I gotta go with DieselPunk. I think of it like expanding on WWII-Vietnam era technology. All the mass-produced, stamped, riveted, early electronics. It's all cool.

havnt posted in this thread before but thought i would submit an idea.
A Diesel punk factory that has been overgrown by a jungle?
just a thought

What's going on? Where are you MiNTO? You're kind of the de facto leader at this point. In my opinion you should get the old threads locked, and start a new thread specifically stating that it's a Diesel Punk style Deathmatch map, ask that people only post if they're committed to working on that specific project, and get everyone to do up moodboards so we can come to a consensus on graphical elements, as well as a location.

This gent speaks truth!

Holidays are over, new year is here, and i'm ready to get working!

also did we decide on diesel punk or is that still being thrown around?

I think its was being thrown around. It seems people want everyone to fall in line with their ideas but until a admin or the person who is running this holds a vote or makes the final decision we are throwing stuff around.

We had a vote already, it came back steampunk, and then we tried to decide on a location for it, and the suggestion of making it Diesel Punk came up, and as you can see from this thread it was pretty much unanimously decided to flip it to Diesel Punk.

FYI there is no admin in charge of this, It's just us, Minto65 is the de facto leader since he started the ball rolling. Right now it's a matter of getting the other leadership infrastructure in place.

ok thnx for the correct I didnt see the vote thread so assumed it didnt take place yet.

i'de offer myself up in a leadership position but i've never done anything like this before. Just graduated so don't have any studio experience.

on the plus side i'm OCD so keeping things clean, neat and on a time line is what i excel at.
