To make this easier for you, split into two parts (as per usual)
Part A and Part B.  
PostPosted: Sat Dec 11, 2010 12:33 am
I'll start on part B if nobody minds.

Sounds good... I've finished and posted the stuff from Mavdoc.
I can start on part A then.

Are you only posting in here, or will you be taking it to the main zOMG! forum, as well?

I already posted the pics to Cleo's thread, I should probably go post them in the actual Dev Meet thread and put them in my sig like last time. I just thought you guys might want to pare it down to the important stuff (and maybe edit out the cursing I put in while I was shitting myself >.> )

I figured I'd post it here first and then when it was complete, it could be posted in the thread in z!F too.

Here's Part B of Nanenna's screens. I pared it down just slightly when [ JK ] was asking about zombies since it was literally just people saying yes and no.

[ JK ]: yeah, gambino's death needs to be acknowledged.. esp. when we get to gambino island
[ JK ]: it's fairly easy, syko

RafiCat: told you, it was a ploy to get us down to 2.0 for easier killing
SykoCaster: Yeah, chaing NPC text around town would be awesome.
[ JK ]: you see right thru me, rafi xD
[ JK ]: ace.. that's my middle name
[ JK ]: you guys have anymore questions?
[ JK ]: when the epic pants is ready

Thard_Verad: So JK, are any of those old "reject" monsters gonna be introduced in upcoming areas?
[ JK ]: maybe.. verad
[ JK ]: sry.. about that, i need to check something
[ JK ]: has any of you seen kuzuan since he left?
Archaic Tragedy: no
scullylam: >>
Patrick Jiuliani: Not really
SykoCaster: Not at all. D:
[ JK ]: ok
[ JK ]: cos i need to ask him something
[ JK ]: no, i forgot to get his contact info
[ JK ]: btw.. did you guys know that we were planning to revamp barton town?
[ JK ]: yes.. this new coliseum was just a small part of it.. we redesigned the map layout for better flow.. and also added more detail everywhere
[ JK ]: i'll show you guys some concept and the 3d models that we built
[ JK ]: yeah, i'll do that sometime this month
[ JK ]: want to get your feedback
[ JK ]: and we've updated to love building too
[ JK ]: it's a cafe/pastry store now
jzmajor: That Cafe, right?
[ JK ]: well, related to rina's, yes
[ JK ]: syko.. we'd love to do interiors of all these buildings.. we just don't have the resource to do so atm
Sakura_Madison: KILLED THE CL 30.0 FLUFF
[ JK ]: we also have plans to add an airship which will take you from barton town to buccaneer boardwalk
Thard_Verad: Crescento's ferry service?
Ace of Shadows 2: I love you. I seriously love you.
scullylam: cresento's?
[ JK ]: ya
[ JK ]: tho, he may not be piloting it anymore since he's involved with the mainsite's plot atm
[ JK ]: maybe a new ship then
[ JK ]: did anyone beat it with carl?
[ JK ]: what about that vampire ship.. you guys want to ride that ship instead of cresento's?
[ JK ]: what if we introduce a new npc.. a vampire pilot?
[ JK ]: ambiguous vampire pilot
[ JK ]: or a female vampire pilot
[ JK ]: werewolves have their place elsewhere
[ JK ]: what was that?
[ JK ]: is frontier skies still up?
Exiled Poet: No, they took it down and haven't brought it back up yet.
[ JK ]: :O
Exiled Poet: I disliked it. I didn't play it much and I won't play it if they bring it back. xD
[ JK ]: why so much hate?
[ JK ]: i'd like to get some more evnt in zomg actually
Patrick Jiuliana: I thinke w'd all like that too. The mini events and the holiday events are some of my favorite things in the game
Archaic Tragedy: how about more mini games =w=
RafiCat: yes
[ JK ]: we have some great ideas, but we can't focus on them
[ JK ]: but these ideas will blow your mind
[ JK ]: i don't want to spoil it <<
[ JK ]: but some of them involve pvp
[ JK ]: and little green things
[ JK ]: you guys like zombies?

(chorus of responses)

[ JK ]: anyone watched "walking dead?"

(chorus of responses)

[ JK ]: you guys should watch that show
[ JK ]: ya, i like the comic too
Ace of Shadows 2: Is this a clue?
[ JK ]: perhaps, ace.. perhaps
[ JK ]: but it's zombie gore
[ JK ]: zombie gore doesn't count
[ JK ]: you guys watch "ghost adventure?"
[ JK ]: yeah, those guys aren't very smart
[ JK ]: we need giant mechas in zomg, yes?
[ JK ]: i'm really hoping that we cna get to that too
[ JK ]: y'know.. like power rangers
[ JK ]: a crew can pilot the giant robot together
[ JK ]: i'll be the pink ranger
SykoCaster: What exactly was Labtech X hoping to accomplish with an army of Sealabs? They're aquatic. They need water. It's like trying to take over the world with an army of Auqamans.
[ JK ]: skyo.. ever heard of ice-cap?
[ JK ]: syko*
[ JK ]: did you guys see the new transformers 3 trailer?
[ JK ]: the second one failed
[ JK ]: the robot with giant ballz D:
[ JK ]: alright guys, i have time for few more questions and i need to go back to dance central
white exile16: RP TIME!
[ JK ]: hmm.. i get to play doctor?
depends on the subject
[ JK ]: nerf eb? why?
[ JK ]: you guys ever play eb when it was really hard.. with crazy hp regen
[ JK ]: i want that back
[ JK ]: hes too easy now, imo
[ JK ]: well, i'd say leave the easy mode alone, and add higher difficulty for the hard mode
[ JK ]: or another difficulty mode.. yes
[ JK ]: the "legendary" mode
[ JK ]: where legends are borne
[ JK ]: we should stick eb in coliseum too, yah?
[ JK ]: endless bosses?
[ JK ]: we should throw in a boss mode for coli, where you only fight bosses
[ JK ]: how about fighting 3 CL 15 landsharks at once?
[ JK ]: it's do-able
[ JK ]: takes patience and strategy
[ JK ]: should fight kraken in there too
[ JK ]: did you guys know that in ancient times.. they would flood the coliseum and fight on boats?
[ JK ]: so kraken would make sense :3
[ JK ]: did anyone buy it?
[ JK ]: gaia's tenticle
[ JK ]: irl
[ JK ]: we used to sell it
[ JK ]: hmm.. maybe we never made a production run
[ JK ]: it was a tenticle plushie with suction cups attached to it
white_exile16: JK I am planning to make this t-shirt with zOMG stuff on it and wear it to school
[ JK ]: that's great, white
[ JK ]: maybe we'll make a pet dragon, yes?
Nanenna: How long will pets live?
[ JK ]: forever
[ JK ]: it'd be cool if some pets can even heal you.. while other can buff you
[ JK ]: but we'll probably start with passive buffs
[ JK ]: but not initially
[ JK ]: sure, we could have it increase some of your base stats
[ JK ]: they won't have any function, arc.. but we've added somethign really neat
[ JK ]: can't yet
[ JK ]: you'll get a good chuckle
[ JK ]: you guys want pet's to pee and poop?
[ JK ]: it'd be cute if they gnawl'd your legs tho
[ JK ]: eventually coli will have epic loot items, but in the beginning it'll only have badges
[ JK ]: some gold and orbs.. yes
[ JK ]: alright guys.. lady gaga is calling me..
[ JK ]: to play dance central
[ JK ]: we don't have coqui in zomg, tho
[ JK ]: thanks guys for coming.. next time, i'll hold my meat during noon, around lunch time
[ JK ]: good night everyone!
[ JK ]: and never give up.. never surrender! biggrin

lol... looks like rl allowed you to beat me to it! rofl
OK... here's part A (I kept [ JK ]'s 'flavor text' as I think some might get a kick out of it, but I did remove the generalized responses if I felt they didn't contribute to the general flow or weren't asking a question... If anyone thinks I should just keep in everything as it is posted, feel free to let me know.)

And now... on to the show!

[ JK ]: we want to make the sewers high level area... maybe even a CL 11 place
[ JK ]: cos no one uses it
[ JK ]: we were going to add an elevator here, which leads to a secret G-corp underground base
[ JK ]: they escaped
[ JK ]: we want to bring the trainstation back, but it'll be used for travel mainly... and quests
[ JK ]: so, did mavdoc tell you guys that coliseum is close to release?
[ JK ]: yep, hopefully coliseum will get released next week
[ JK ]: as for pets, we're currently working on that. we're planning to release them, early january
~
[ JK ]: well, that failed xD
[ JK ]: sewers can't hold many ppl.. totally forgot about that
[ JK ]: I have some good news
[ JK ]: swarf is almost finished coding pets smile
[ JK ]: and we have one of the pets done... art-wise
[ JK ]: he was able to get a neat feature in with pets.. with some help form halzy smile
[ JK ]: I don't want to spoil it for you guys, but I'm making a new pet from one of the existing zomg monster (new as in new art)
SegaManiac: so like a remix
[ JK ]: suppose you could say that, sega.. but it's totally new, from scratch.. but it's related to an existing mob.. a very powerful mob :>
[ JK ]: also, as mavdoc mentioned earlier, coliseum is very close to release
[ JK ]: we're hoping to release it next week
[ JK ]: think there's like 6 difficulty settings.. were was it 5?
[ JK ]: or*
[ JK ]: okay.. maybe 5
[ JK ]: bron is balancing and fixing bugs for coli atm

[ JK ]: dang.. think i pulled something while playing dance central D:
[ JK ]: kinect is fun... when you're alone
[ JK ]: i wouldn't want to be caught seen playing it tho.. it takes photos of you and you look really bad xD

[ JK ]: 5-6 difficulty setting for each type of game modes, yes.. so total of 15+ levels
[ JK ]: and 12-15 new badges i think.. don't remember
[ JK ]: and i can't spawn vampires atm.. not until it's night time
[ JK ]: they'll sparkle too much atm
[ JK ]: btw, patrick... your stick figure art will be ready soon
[ JK ]: for devs... even drawing stick figures is a challenge
[ JK ]: you guys see that npc.. ellie?
[ JK ]: we want to do a doodle or painting level where you get sucked into that canvas
[ JK ]: i'll bug mavdoc to share some of the backgrounds he drew for that area
[ JK ]: hopefully we can release it
[ JK ]: the mobs will be done in sketchy-style.. maybe we'll even throw in some stick figure npcs in there
[ JK ]: i'm sure if we make a stick figure level.. we can crank it out in couple of day (art-wise)
[ JK ]: but scripting will take the same amount
[ JK ]: pets will be released in the first week of january.. at least that's the plan
[ JK ]: think we're going to charge $5
[ JK ]: no, they don't expire like fishes
[ JK ]: yes, they won't be soulbound
[ JK ]: and they're only going to be available for 2 weeks... maybe even less
[ JK ]: and once they are pulled from the shop, we won't release the same ones ever again... ever
[ JK ]: i'm sure it'll be available in the marketplace after we release it
[ JK ]: we're planning to heavily advertise them on the main site.. yes
[ JK ]: currently you can equip 2 i believe.. i'll need to double check on that tho
[ JK ]: not the same 2.. but we discussed about allowing some to da that.. like chicks
[ JK ]: it'd be cool to have 4 chicks follow you
[ JK ]: we plan on releasing 2 pets per month
[ JK ]: btw, you guys like rock puppy?
suusuus: so JK are they going to affect your stats at all?
(various yes and no in answer to [ JK ] question)
[ JK ]: well, that's why we're releasing 2 at a time..
[ JK ]: can't release that info yet
[ JK ]: did you guys watch the Thor trailer?
[ JK ]: it got released today
[ JK ]: yeah.. y'know that guy with the hammer
Nanenna: Too busy watching Tron trailers
[ JK ]: oh.. tron's going to be really cool
[ JK ]: who like daft punk?
[ JK ]: i got the soundtrack the other day.. it's awesome!
[ JK ]: you know what we need?
[ JK ]: we need "the grid" in zomg
[ JK ]: we should make a tron level too
[ JK ]: we could throw in some techno music in that level biggrin
[ JK ]: come on.. it'll be cool..we have the tech to turn your avatar into tron
avatars.. all glowy and stuff
[ JK ]: i'm not teasing.. i'm serious razz
[ JK ]: i'll suggest it to the guys
[ JK ]: making that level should be very easy too..everything will be in wireframe
[ JK ]: not yet, thard (was corrected in screen)
[ JK ]: but we have a hacky way of achieving that
[ JK ]: we can place a portal under... and warp you across, so there's no z-sort issues
[ JK ]: we actually imployed that trick in undermountain area
[ JK ]: so we can use it for just about anything
[ JK ]: yep
[ JK ]: speaking of undermountain
[ JK ]: mavdoc will resume working on that area soon... within this month
[ JK ]: we plan on releasing that area after BB
[ JK ]: and... i'll be working on a secret level that i can't discuss yet cos some of you may get a heart attack
[ JK ]: i'll start on that level next month
Thard_Verad: I'm strong of heart, tell me!
[ JK ]: i will.. verad
[ JK ]: it's an area which has been discussed before
[ JK ]: but guys.. i can't promise anything, in case zomg fails
[ JK ]: i'm optimistic that it won't, but there's always a chance
[ JK ]: just to clarify.. you guys are aware that zomg will continue even if they cease production, right?
[ JK ]: but gaia will always release new content.. and events
[ JK ]: you guys are also aware that we're partially in this predicament because we failed to integrate zomg more into the main site
[ JK ]: right?
[ JK ]: isolation is a bad thing
[ JK ]: zomg currently feels so separated from the main site

[ JK ]: i think it's both,syko
[ JK ]: we could've done more to tie in with the main site
[ JK ]: at least we tried with the storyline, but that was the extent of it
[ JK ]: if you watch the zomg intro.. i tried very hard to incorporate gaia into zomg
[ JK ]: that was our goal
[ JK ]: well, frank will be back.. at least he's in the new tutorial that we have planned
[ JK ]: but that's low priority atm
[ JK ]: the new tutorial ties everything together tho...
[ JK ]: nope, not the train
[ JK ]: it'll take place in the null
[ JK ]: train will be used for travel quests
[ JK ]: we're going to repurpose that
[ JK ]: once we have aekea and durem... we can use the train for travel
[ JK ]: taylor.. new tutuorial is low priority, so don't worry

Holy Crapple. $5 for a pet!? Totally worth it. cool I better start making some free GC cash with some offers, Pronto! Although I hope to be able to keep up with the two pets a month deal. It'll be like the next RIG or sealed envelopes. I'm personally VERY excited.

Hopefully it would help zOMG's venue problem a bit >.<

just so you know, i might not be able to make it to this weeks dev meet...also bron and mav's birthdays are coming up, so ya  
PostPosted: Fri Dec 17, 2010 11:17 am
Is this thread also going to be for this week's dev meet? JK's is in less than an hour, and I plan to be there. I have to leave for work at 2 though, and they usually last for about 2 hours so I might miss the tail end. Are we all ready for this?

Edit: Bad news, it's 12:30 and still no JK. So either the meet is on a different layer and no one's invited me or JK is late. Either way, I have to leave at 2, whether the meet is still going or not. I hope someone can get the end if I don't. :/
