stuffradio Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I'm making something that is supposed to be easy to make any type of browser based game. What I want to do is speed development of a game, including making it have a template based system as well. Do I need to make an MVC for this? Any suggestions? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenk Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 MVC is a pattern. Why oh why does everyone think it is something that can be "built"? where the hell do people get this information? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbo Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I dunno, but I sure am tired of reading about MVC. I keep reading all these discussions thinking I'm missing something! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuffradio Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 I think it's the way some people describe it. That's the only reason why I'd be thinking of it as something to build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Fire Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Well in a way you do have to "build" it. I mean you can't implement MVC without some soft of model, view, and controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuffradio Posted December 12, 2007 Author Share Posted December 12, 2007 Ok, maybe this is a better question to ask. I'm trying to design a system to ease the development of a web browser game. If you don't know what one is... look at http://www.tribalwars.net for an example of an rpg browser game. What design pattern should I use. I want to make it so people don't need to do that much development in order to make a decent game. They can though, hack the code to their own benefits if they want to. Suggestions?

You build an application, you don't build patterns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You build an application, you don't build patterns. You still have to build that parts of the MVC pattern to use them(or use what someone else built.

Jenk Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 No, you build an application that satisfies the pattern, should the pattern be applicable to your needs. You do not build a pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquid Fire Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I guess you could implement MVC functionality without "building" controllers, models, or views but than you really are not using MVC IMO(at least a version that would be worth using).

Jenk Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Your application may have a Model component, a View component and a Controller component, but is not a "ModelViewController" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would anyone like to answer stuffradio's question instead of bickering about particularities. You might save yourselves some time one day.

Liquid Fire Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I would suggest using MVC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 You certainly don't have to, but it would be a good idea to use a Model-View-Controller approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
