   Help me please!
  Hey,I'm only 14 years old..... (yeah I know Noobie right)(and by the way you are right)(a matter of fact I dont even know how to make a MMORPG :( ) (I will stop with the parentheses....) <--last one!Well Call me crazy but I have an Awesome Idea for an MMORPG!!! and was wondering if someone could help me by making it for me.....I know you might not like the idea of making SOMEONE elses game..... but if you do then I'm always making those great ideas of mine.......And if you have any suggestions, i'll Back you up 100%............. My idea is to create MANY different Races (like Dofus kind of)<-- sorry,   and each person the logs in and creates a file gets a complete race to themselves....... I know it sounds impossible but I think limiting the server until new races come and having many people creating those races the game would run smoothly!! By the way each race would have individual spells and skills!! Please write back....   
  Are you saying something similar to the upcoming game, Spore?   ;  I haven't really checked into Spore........But If it is Similar would it matter since I have different Races and most likely different gameplay???Are you interested by any chance?   ;  Hm, I'm gonna reply here to quench any grumpy flamers hanging around before they vent their wrath on you.Making an MMO game of any kind is a massive undertaking -- we're talking hundreds of man-hours and then not insignificant costs to maintain the system once it's up.I would advise you to read the FAQ for the 'For Beginners' forum -- it will give you an idea of how you might phrase requests for help in the future, and whether or not such requests are appropriate.  Asking highly skilled people to simply make something for you when you cannot promise them any recompense for time spent...is a pipe dream.  If you really want help making something, come up with some convincing material to encourage people to help you out: i.e. Design documents, art etc.Furthermore, as has been said a million times -- everyone has ideas.  They don't make themselves, so if you -really- want to create an MMO, you're gonna have to do more than think of ideas.  Finally, if you're -still- set on your course of action, there are systems available for generating MMOs that take some of the pain out of it -- but you'd still have to learn how to use them in order to make anything worthwhile.Start small, buddy -- work up from there!~Shiny.   ;  Hi, You want to make MMORGP[cool]. I am also studing and have soon realized that making games and making something even close to commercial games is a mountain to climb[tears].I just want to make a 2D game in six months, that's my aim! I always wanted to make a good racing sim and action adventure games but atm I am light years away from it[bawling].The best thing you can do is make short goals and achieve it. Try to find mates like you who are intrested in making games and work with them(this is what even I wanted to do) If others know more than you it will help you and after some expereince and knowledge you can improve. You can also try gamemaker software to make some games. I haven't tried it because I want to make my own game and it is not advisible to use it either. Just for fun you can try it.Making games involves lot of people, lot of programmers, one lead programmer. artist, designer and so on.. also game tester[grin]. But we can make games of our own but there is no chance that we can make those commercial games.You have ideas and are creative that's really good, you need some guys to help you and make games. It is very difficult but not impossible[wink]. But it will take lot of time and we have to start from scratch. Because we are noobs[embarrass]   ;  uh starting with MMORPG!i  started with tetris...you want to be a designer or programmer?if second,start with simple games and then go up and up.thats my noob hint   ;  If you are asking for help to make a MMORPG with little reward or direction then it simply not going to happen (they are called "Massive" Multiplayer for a reason). They take an extremely long time to develop fully. If you are still undeterred, then start very small. Think of a smaller 'world/game' which can be expanded to be fit your current idea which is feasible to make within a short amount of time. It doesn't even have to be graphical, a text based games would simplify some of the mechanics.   ;  Isn't the Help Wanted forum better suited for this? If you do create a new post, make sure to use the Template or else you'll probably be yelled at.And you may just want to check out some of the links at the bottom of the Help Wanted FAQ (link in the template) which might give you some idea of what you're trying to do.   ;  Nah, he'll just get flamed in the Help Wanted forum...To the OP: what I suggest you do is learn a programming language. That's pretty common advice around here. Some will say that you don't need to if you want to be a designer, but a) I'm not sure you want to be a designer or a programmer, you haven't really stated that very clearly and b) It's always good for a designer to know about the different parts of making a game, including programming, art, music, etc. so that they can relate to the other members of the team and manage them better and understand what is feasible and what is not.;Quote:Original post by Oberon_CommandNah, he'll just get flamed in the Help Wanted forum...Too bad that is so true.
