Arkanos tries to find any survivors; he heads to a radio broadcast station. He finds out the US has been over flooded by the Russians. He also hears a broadcast of a resistance group located North of Hunson, It’s an Army base. He decides to head there. He needed protection for his journey. He gets all geared up in a nearby Firearms Depot. Just as he leaves the store he gets ambushed by the Russians. He survives. He heads on. Many days later after fighting; he reaches the base. They welcome him. The place is filled of blood and depression that he is terrorized by the site. Commander Samar, informs him of their main goal. Their goal is to head to the core of Russia and locate their Nuclear Facility and sabotage the attack. All 500,000 men agree to risk their lives to save their loved ones.

I have 1 3ds max EDUCATIONAL liscnese that i can give to my modeler.

[frozenfire2]

3ds max educational license is free for all students. I don't think that's a fair offer.

[TheDopefish]

It's nice to see how many people that use my recruitment post as a template!

[xxmiggixx]

I didnt want to make it sound like an offer, i just wanted to let people know becuase what is they are not students or if they dont want to go nasd register for some reason, i just wanted to mak ea statement thats all

[xxmiggixx]

Anyone interested? Please if your interested PM me.

[xxmiggixx]

I love your work i like the atmosphere you have, thats EXCATLY what im looking for. Well its your descision i would like you to be part of my team do you want to?

[Octo]

What about gameplay mechanics? The story means nothing if it isn't fun to play...is it just another fps where you shoot russians?

[xxmiggixx]

In the category of gameplay mechanics its not just shooting russians.For example let say your low on ammo and their is about 50 russians in a mansion, so you can go both ways try to kill them one by one OR use your brain and look up and theres a big chandelier, so what could be the reasonable thing to do is shoot it and drop it on them. I dont want to make a simple "shooting" game i want to make a game that you have to find certain things to advance the level. Not a very hard thinking game but common thinking. As the game comes along we'll know how to organize this. THat was my main thinnking, "not a simple shooting game. THank Octo for bringing that up. And are you interested?

[TheFreeman]

I don't think a chandelier would kill 50 Russians in one go :P

I do get what your saying though, you should play Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, what you have explained of your gameplay sounds a lot like what was used in this game, using the environment against your enemies, was good fun!

[xxmiggixx]

Well it was an example. And yes o enjoyed dark messiah. THanks uhm by any chance are you interested.

[TheFreeman]

Unfotunetely not, I'm heading my own team with our own ideas, as is everyone else on here it seems. :P

[xxmiggixx]

Yes indeed, this isnt easy at all

[xxmiggixx]

Spots still open,anyone is welcome PM me.

Still recruiting, yeah !

[xxmiggixx]

WHat the hell man,why you hijacking our thread.

[aajohnny]

What experience does the leader or even members have?

[xxmiggixx]

They are either in college getting their Bachelor's degree or already graduated.
I have been involved in Games and Game Development for almost a year. I know 3ds Max,Maya, Zbrush,Photoshop. I know basic C++,Unreal Script, and HTML. I sometimes Multi-task, example,somedays i make some meshes,then i make textures,then i would Design Levels.

I know all of those tools too... but that doesnt mean im any good with them or could use them to a acceptable standard

I think you need to provide people with a bit more information on your background and skills.
You've mentioned you know HTML, but your website is a preset template with stock images...
You've also stated your role as the Level Designer and that you can do 3D work, but youve not posted any examples...

one of the First Lines in your post state "This is not one of those half finished projects"...
You cannot pull out a line like this without throwing out some facts about yourself and previous work. Anyone can say "this is not a project that will never happen", so you need to back it up with proof that you actually have finished projects before.

Additionally... the Concept Art you posted is just....awful. and thats me being nice! A 10 year old could put together better art...
i mean... seriously... it must have taken you like 5 minutes to put those together? is that the kind of commitment you have to the project?
And the worst part is that once again stated you know about a tool (photoshop), but completely avoided using it when you need to....
Which only leads me to think that, your knowledge is very minimal in all the "skills" youve stated. And beyond knowing their names and what they are used for, you generally have no idea how to use them.

I probably sound a bit dickish. but its the harsh reality, and im just putting it out there for you (im surprised no one else has bothered making a helpful post).

So my advice:
Learn a Skill. Become very good at either Programming/UnrealScript or 3D Art.

and then You need to
A) put atleast a few hours into each Concept drawing, or
B) hire a concept artist do a small amount of work for you.

Then after a couple of months re-bump this thread with some real good sample images/facts/blabla.

If you genuinly believe in your idea, and that you can pull this project off, Then you should have no doubts in investing a little time or money!

//just my two cents, hope it helps
[edit: re-reading my post, i do come across as a ****. but im just trying to be helpful]

[xxmiggixx]

I put up some concept art,i drew this by hand, and as a result they arent good. The last two were the first ones i made,they look bad. Btw I hope you like them
