A 'sickness' hazard!

Archive: 28 posts


There should be a hazard that once touched or walked through (if its a gas) kills you slowly, so you have a chance to reach the next checkpoint. To show that 'sackboy' is infected and how much time he has left, his symtons could get significantly worse, as to say; When he first gets infected he begins to go pale (Regardless of what 'skin' he/she has on, also any glowing parts to the 'costume should slowly dim, sackboy, could then begin to go green and could start to sneeze, then cough, soon sackboy could have sweat coming off himaand he then eventually dies. The amount of time that sackboy takes to die could also be tweakable. And anyway no ones saying sackboy has to die, it could activate an input when he is at his/her sickest point as to say you could have him/her turn into a zombie.
Anyway cheers to any feedback and thankyou to any other suggestions, looking forward to them.

This is probably possible through the game already, but it would be nice to have some sort of pre-made device. This would get kind of annoying in game however.2010-12-16 02:30:00

True, but is also very cool. If someone made this with the game's tools, I would give them several monies.

Maybe I'll make it...... the AI GET ZE MONIES!

It would be good tho, say u entered a sewer pipe and you had a certain amount of time to make it all the way threwbefore the disease kills u and theres a cure to the disease at the end, and if u dnt make it 2 the cure u die but u leave a body behind and yuor body turns into a zomnbie, which u hav 2 fight, when u nxt see it, as 2 say if u died 5 times you would hav 5 zombies to defeat, meaning the more u die the harder it gets, this woul add a great feel to games such as this and you could make an insane i am legend lvl with that sorta stuff.2010-12-16 04:37:00

Something that would be cool with this is tweaking the "death time", making it longer or shorter. This would be great! I like it, but I think it should be cuter, less coughing and more sneezing.2010-12-16 19:41:00

^ Yeah, I like the idea. Namely because i thought of it on *checks own threads date* 9-15-10.


Here it is! (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=35873-Tweak-able-potency-gas)

But calling it sickness is a little...... :I

Or scarier, how bout we take it up a notch? Lets have some vommiting! (I have a twisted fiendish mind) And even coughing up blood? Arms fall of sackboy one at a time? Eyes fall out of his head? Who knows but lets make it groesque lol.2010-12-16 19:58:00

Hahah, buuuut imagine if we got the rating up? Huh. Wouldn't that be insane? With a higher rating means MM can put in all the things that we older kids want, and it also means we won't get bad lvls rated highly by little kids.2010-12-16 20:07:00

I actually like the limbs falling off idea haha, no blood or vomiting though, thats unrealistic for this game.2010-12-16 20:12:00

I think this would work best if the stakes were high, with one death = level over, so you could genuinely feel the panic of your dying sack as he frantically searches for a vaccine.2010-12-16 20:18:00

I can't see this being too hard to implement, they've already got most of it working with the drowning.

Vomiting stuffing might work.

Higher ratings = Mm looses potential costumers, and yunger kids miss out on LBP.

You really wanna take away the majority of LBPers, and cost Mm potential costumer, just so one idea that can already be implementd with logic, be made as a tool?
Yeah....no, I'll say nay on this.

Hahah, but by losing the little kids and making the game more apealing to older kids they gain potential costumers and older kids are thes who own the ps3's most young kids are probably on wii, so it would be a great financial move to make, the game would only have to be upped to PG, so they'd still get some younger kids playing.2010-12-16 20:58:00

Just make gas tweak able 0-4 strength, with 0 having mo effect and 4 instant death.

But, why does it have to be ... So grim?


This society is going the way of the Romans with their "games". Fact.



....I do want a non-physical laser hazard, though.


*cough*

You sound like you think your someone or something. O.o

Look buddy, if you want this garbage (did I mention it would take up MM's tine they could use for better stuff?!) then go play those grotesque levels that have this stuff simulated in it. And if you really need more, then go buy resistance 2 or something. This game isn't changing it's feel for you obserd generation of people.

that's my opinion, it's not changing, and it is harsh.

I mean I do like SOME gore in SOME games, but half the reason I love LBP is because it has no gore

You quite clearly don't know me very well, well you wouldn't cos we've neva talked but anyway I HATE FPS's there stupid and require no imagination what so ever and anyway no one said this was even a good idea 4 lbp i'm jus adding in some elements of gameplay that could be good for some lvls, like a horror or a medical lvl, where a disease hits, if you've read: The Passage, you'd be like, holy **** that would make a mean lvl, so no. I am not going 2 go play an FPS cos they aren't creative wat so eva, they in fact suk, and i don't want 'sickness' becos of the gore i want it because of the new types of gameplay it adds, and i guesss nobody caught my sarcasm when i mentioned limbs and eyes falling off and coufghing up blood and vommiting, that wouldn't even work! So b4 u comment or critisize make sure wat ur saying is FAIR!2010-12-16 22:00:00

Sickness? Yes.

Bleeding, vomiting, and falling apart? No.

Stick to sneezing out stuffing, and this could be a neat idea.

No I do not. It's quie hard to *read* sarcasm. <_<

I had said resistance 2, because that's not even what goes by my definition of a playable FPS. More like a gore fest.
I never implied there was something wrong with all FPS's - I play FPS's that deal with teamwork and such.

Sickness of this sort would not add gameplay. That gameplay can already be done.

yup a few silly costumes and stickers though the way I see it this can already be made in the game and presents no new gameplay feature other than trying to beat the clock, which is already a make-able scenario. Also ide have to side with people who label this as grim. The game already pushes it with death by gas, slow painful death by disease would put it a little over the top. A little silly considering sackboy is a little bundle of cloth and not a biological being 2010-12-17 00:05:00

Everybody on this green earth is somebody. Way to put somebody down for having an opinion. Maybe your the one being "obserd", lol.

EDIT- Also, think of limbs falling off more as unraveling. Like his arms falls off and its dragging beind you on a string, and once you get out of the gas it zips back up onto your arm. Not grotesque at all. Im not saying it should be added, just that it sounded like a cool idea.

Then how can he drown?
Anyone played worms? When they go sick, they get green and sneeze. That would work. And when the time goes out, the sackboy would just explode. Exploding is the solution for everything.

Anyone played worms? This was where i got the idea from, like when the place gets nuked they slowly die, they turn green and begin to sneeze that would be fine, that was what i was originally aiming at, i wasn't being serious about limbs falling off, or vomit or the eyes coming out or the blood.2010-12-17 00:38:00

I reckon could be pretty easily done with the tools on LBP2 at the moment. You'd probably need to use a sackbot - so when they get "infected", it starts a timer in their circuit board. As the timer reaches certain points, you could probably change the expressions on thier faces, make them move slower etc using movers. Then, when times up, you could make a cute little animation that occurs before they explode. Simples!

EDIT: I'll see if I can pull it off in the beta. If I can - I'll post a vid here


2nd EDIT: Ok, I've kind of pulled it off - not got a video yet. Basically, as you cross the line, your health starts to deteriorate slowly. As you get more "sick" your expressions become unhappy, and you get much slower in terms of movement. When all health is gone = Boom!

That the kind of thing you wanted?
