holiks Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Day after day I heard so much from (or between) my friends about M4fia Wars. So much was it hyped that I decided to actually try it. Boy did I regret that. I registered, logged in ...and clicked ....and clicked on in disbelief as to how pointless alot of this "clicking" was...and it was driving me nuts. By the way this also applies to most if not ALL of the other browser-based "dealer type" games out there (minus the "hype" part"). We need to have something more engaging...meaningful...realistic...to-the-point. That said, Time Underground is my attempt at a response.....or at least the beginning of it. www.timeunderground.com The site is in "minimum-functionality" stage right now. Have alot of basics done. But development is currently active. Appreciate any input. TIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holiks Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Different?....well more Engaging my friend (and whatever else mentioned before) .......but....if your reply/question was posted based on browsing the site .....well there must be some basic infrastructure ...which is ...like i said...all I've done so far. But any input is greatly appreciated. Potential? .....no potential? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 You're taking thrope's comment way to seriously. It wasn't even directed at you, he was just making a joke. Learn to take a joke dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I guess I should have used a smiley. Except, like rpg's I find them childish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PugJr Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Why do you point out that he is a staff alumni? As far as the hierarchy is concerned, thrope and I and you as well as holiks are in the same boat. (I bet we all find that hard to believe. ) EDIT: This is your entire site. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 3.2 Final//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Index of /</title> </head> <body> <h1>Index of /</h1> <ul></ul> </body></html> I don't blame them for being upset. I'm not exactly impressed either. EDIT: Thrope, if RPGs are childish, what isn't as far as computer games go? RPGs are less childish than lets say Massacre 'em All (FPS), as atleast you don't mindlessly blast your enemies to bits and pieces and plan to some degree.

My name is thorpe and I've never seen the point of games on computers. Do you see the point of board games? Or of any games at all? One is electronic, the other isn't. Its called entertainment and of course I can't decide your opinion whether or not you find games entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixicoding Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Back on topic a bit, the maximum bankroll/cash on hand allowed is restricted to 2147483647. You may want to consider using a different variable type for storing money, or make it harder to get. Otherwise it seems to be coming along fairly well, good job.

JasonLewis Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Sorry, was totally turned off by the layout of the website. I once tried an Text-based RPG, too much reading for a game. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixicoding Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Yup, but the game is still active and I'd assume he has email notifications. He wanted info, the threads not closed, I'm just helping. (the game isn't finished yet, so it is still in beta) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardale Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 It was alright man. Although I'm personally not into browser games nice work though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
