Medieval Dynasty RP?

[Malakai030]

Hi all. This question goes both to the Devs and the community.

Do you see a possibility of turning MD into a full fledge Roleplaying game in the style of GTA Roleplay or Red Dead Redemption Roleplay?

I'm a huge fan of those types of RP and I love the MD setting and all its content, so I wondered if one could make a playable RP world out of it, be it the developers or some passionate players from the community.

My initial idea was to quadruple the map size, get rid of most NPCs and leave an empty map to be played on so the players can populate it, taking jobs as hunters, smithes, farmers and stuff and so create a completely unique RP experience in a pretty fresh setting. Of course their would need to be a lot of changes to balancing, difficulty and overall resource gain to make it realistically playable, but just in general:

What do you think?

So you want to take away the base of the game which revolves around city management and turn it into some sort of mmo?

MD isn't built for that, so would have to be recreated pretty much from the ground up. Something like this would be better for a new game, not to adapt an existing game not designed for it.

How do people make these post in any type of seriousness? I assume they have never had a job before.

What you want is Life is Feudal.

I agree with Morri. Just because MD has amazing graphics and an open world which you can interact with as a player, it doesn't mean it's an RPG. It is basically a village building and management game with some quests here and there. And that's what I like about it.

@Morri, it doesn't have to take away on what MD is.
New players would spawn in villager camps and do nothing but wait until someone picks them up, assigns them a house, a job, ...
They do what they are told aso.

The idea is fascinating, but I don't see it fit in the current code in any low-effort way. (Which most RP's start out with, low effort and grow as the community for RP in the game does)

As a RP fan you can still do this, but it wont be massive rollplaying in active player numbers.
You can only connect with 4 people at the time, but people could take over when one logs out either in their own or the (now free) position of the player whom disconnected.
You'll have less of the laughs and run-ins with that 1 guy you remember for months, but, if you work the idea out within the current limitations you could make it work and the community for it will grow.

I'd suggest making a post (with atleast a semi worked out idea) here

While we are at it, can't we turn tetris into a game were we build giant space-stations and manage them? I mean its already putting blocks together into a wall, so it can't be that different.
