dueal: first draft for d mercenary goat.

Jivi: Here is a new game story idea. I think it can be improved upon. However, let me know what you think. We can mix in Nigerian elements
into the game like language etc.

Goat’s Revolt
Goats have been oppressed by men for years. They have been slaughtered for food.
General Goaty, the protagonist will take this injustice no more. Goats have a life too. On Xmas eve. the goats led by General Goaty assisted by the Big-Eyed Goat, General OverSeer went on riot against man. They form an alliance with other Xmas – eatable animals such as Cow, Chicken, Turkey etc. Together, they go offensive against man fighting for their fundamental Animal Rights. They acquired all sorts of machine guns and assault rifles and waged a war on man.
Eventually, after several dangerous mission which almost led to the end of the world. They defeated man and they celebrated their victory.
As they were celebrating, General Goaty woke up from his dreams in the abattoir and next thing he knows, a knife goes for his neck.
In other words, the entire Game is General Goaty’s dream on Xmas eve.

The mission is to defeat men.
The language is pidgin English with interpretation for other languages.
The game is first person shooter and/or third person shooter.
the goats can walk on two legs (It does not have to be realistic)
What do you think?

Elvisten10: thats more like you. Welcome back, good bye to the b***t.

Djtm:

Elvisten10: i just dey observe am.

Kennyinusa:

and what d heck are u sayin.
Its people like you that leads people astray, first of all u were saying that OP could do it, get it done and prove to hater that a goal is a goal no matter how outrageous they might sound. Now u re saying that OP could pick himself off when he fails right, and they he can always learn on the job...
Why must you confuse people like that, u are trying to protect the integrity of the OP, we understand but u shouldn't lead him astray while doing that.
@OP, if u read between the post of ur biggest fan, u might want to label him an hater but i wouldn't do that if i were u.

According to what @PhenomenonVFX's said earlier, i think that u re just trying to impress but you do not need that to prove anything to urself or to anybody.
Lets even say that you have completed the engine, i doubt it that you have the money to make it commercial, i even thought that it would go outside of the shores of Nairaland.com because you don't seems to have the money ($100k for a pretty mini startup).

I personally ain't waiting for u to fail because as a matter of fact u can't, u have too much vibe, too much of energy and commitment that wouldn't let that happen but its really a long shot with the kind of goal that you have in front of it especially when its for the wrong reason.

This is just what i think and anybody that think otherwise could eat ma poo or taste assorted blood for desert.

God bless OP, PhenomenonVFX's, CodeEater, Javanian, Me, myself and I.

jjk24: I can 0nly laff my guy u nt hlpin dis guy e fit learn yes !! Buh in d hard way ni he will s00n realize dah all his bein learnin is jst a bit 0f wah he nids buh I dnt wanna talk 2much 4 here since na u b d smart 1 we r d pessimist wh0 want his dwnfall !! Dey enc0urage am g0 .

CODE-EATER:


If I should open my mouth and lay a course on u and ur generation unborn, not even t.b j would be able to erase it....


DID I TALK TO U?

DID I INSULT ANY BODY HERE SINCE?

I ONLY SAID WHAT THE THREAD OWNER WANTS TO DO IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE...

Y R NIGERIANS SO AFRAID OF ACCEPTING THE TRUTH.... LOOK MR MAN WETHR U LIKE IT OR NOT WEDA U INSULT ME OR NOT I WON'T STOP SAYING THE TRUTH...


WHAT U WANT TO DO IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

M not saying it's impossible, m just saying the likely hood of success is low...

I mean u r trying to create another 3D max here, have u been able to master the available 3d engines?.. am not saying am a pro, m not saying I even know how to create a 3d image but to pull of something like that u'l need more than just an idea n advanced programmers... OK let's say u do succeed n create a cool app, ask your self do u really think people would leave d likes of Maya,3d max,blender and unity that have been tested and trusted to come and use an app made by a group of geeky Nigerians?

I think not....

Look,am just saying, it might end being a waste of time...

Fine, I accept, u r gud innovator but just don't over dream...


And as 4 the foolish fool that insulted me 4 no reason, u r lucky am in a gud mood today.. u 4 carry curse follow body go house

CODE-EATER:
I don't know image manipulation and this binary crap...I don't know a lot in physics even though am working on it...I don't know how to make a game...

Am the kinda guy that likes to think the unimaginable, I like creating ideas that can be either just brilliant or sound outrageously stupid,seriously u need to see the kinda stuff I can come up with...but when I saw this,. I Took a sec to imagine wat it'l be like,doz brief 10seconds felt good,but den I came back to reality...


My guy,this is NOT impossible... but its not GOING TO HAPPEN...

ok fine, u know ur way around a computer, understand how the thing really works,great 4 u,I envy that Cuz I don't have dat installed in my brain, but

PhenomenonVFX:

You are wrong Javanian. Most of those guys there arent actually doing anything. Most of them cant model to save a life. I am not talking about mugs and kitchens. And the number of programmers in Nigeria is actually much more than 3D modellers. Some of them shamlessly steal readymade models from the internet and render them just for bragging rights. Sad, isnt it?
Furthermore, it takes more than 3D modeling and programming to make a good game. U also have to know animation, physics, level design, game design, story-telling, etc.....Even very good mathematics.
Personally, I think the only thing hindering game development in Nigeria is lack of skilled teams. Most Nigerians are used to working alone. We arent able to organise ourselves into formidable teams. That can be attributed to lack of funds though.
Dont start preaching to me about greatness and sacrificing today for 2moro. A lot of guys think that is enough to motivate people. And they start telling u the story of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. It isnt enough. Even if u start, u might get burned out easily. I have shown a lot of people my models and they have asked me to join their crew. And when I ask them of their aims, knowledge and their plans, all I see from their response is that they are just a bunch of fanboys dreaming. They have no inkling about what such a project entails. I just stay smart and decline. And I have never regretted it till this day. In Enugu, in Asaba, in Ibadan, in Lagos, in Benin, in Akure. The story is mostly the same. Till this day, they are yet to reach any milestone.
To really do something relevant, one needs to be skilled at it, spend time on it and have a way of paying his bills and while in the process. Any thing besides that is most likely a pipe dream.

thinka2:

What I meant is do u develop web for ppl if they need ur services

Olive64:
Wow! Oh my..... Just what i needed.... Thanks alot for the links you provided.... I am grateful

thinka2: Good morn @worldbest. Want to ask if u are a web developer...thk u

GraphicsPlus: Not true sir. If u know me, u will know that i am even more willing to teach newbie than u ar willing to do same. But i dont always pamper people. sorry. u hav to accept it like that. The op has an idea, which is good. But he failed to ask the appropriate question. And to correct him, i hav to flog him first. It's afta flogging him that i can now draw him closer, wipe his tears and teach him.

GraphicsPlus: ^^ Dont be sentimental. There are different ways of advising someone. Dont expect me to always follow one way. Good day.

kingsilly: Stupid developer..if u knw u wont finish it y start it then..msheww..CRETIN...pretenderz
