Sorrry READ THIS INSTEAD
the other had TONS of typos.

Medieval Knights (Does a game already have this name?)

The game takes place during the 1300''s to late 1400''s in Europe. You are a knight fighting in battles. The game is for any PC and can be played in single player for those without internet or slow internet. In multiplayer someone creates a server. Players can come in and play online battles. Battles can be historical or just battles. If a player dies they switch to another character into the war. Battles can take place during a siege of a castle, in the forest or fields, or in a town. In single and multiplayer there are different classes and ranks. When you first start out you are the lowest rank. But the more you kill and more battles you win the higher your rank goes. Basic classes now are Archers, Foot Soldiers, Heavy Calvary, etc. In single player before a battle there are short cut scenes. The swords range from light weight, to medium; to heavy (This also applies for the axe and other bladed weapons). Siege weapons are usable but take some time to reload. For multiplayer and single there are fun modes like capture the flag and kill spree and much more. In a siege to win the battle the attacking team must break into the castle kill everyone while trying to get the the castle flag. The attackers must grad a torch and light the wooden flag pole.

Your idea is good, but i think you played a little to much diablo 2, cause you idea is olmost the same when i think of it. But still good idea !

Thanks. I have only played Diablo 2 once and that was for 3 minutes. But i didn''t really mean for it to seam as if i took it from Diablo 2 I just wanted diversity in the weapons to make the game a bit better.

Btw this is an First Person game just so you didn''t know.

I''m sorry, did I miss something? That sounds nothing like Diablo2.

The game is nothing like Diablo 2. The only thing like it is the weapons(kinda).

here´s a few problems:

-AI
-engine (massive outdoor scenes with many actors)
-control (fps close combat?)


you might wanna have a look at Planetside.

ya its fps close combat. planetside?
anyone play battlefield 1942? It would be like that just with swords. Big open area(not real big).
