so yes, TGM, you can blame me for saying "on top of", when "in front of" would have been clearer :P
i thought you actually meant that "wow, that's amazing!" after sending you the logo, and hoped i was going in the right direction with it. :P

TGM, ADOS certainly could have been more tactful with what he said, but he was only stating an opinion. If you can't handle a little bit of criticism, submitting creative work to be judged on the internet is definitely not a good idea.
i can't handle criticism, true, but that has nothing to do with ADoS' attempts looking horrid (and i'm only stating an opinion, here), now does it?

The crown still seems a bit insignificant in comparison to the sun, though, as others have stated.
blame aran for that, you guys.

I still can't quite agree with TGM's, although the second new one is the best of the lot. Avernum shouldn't be wearing the Empire, the Empire shouldn't be smaller, and the Empire shouldn't be silver. Making both gold would make things worse, not better.
funnily, all of the modifications are done based on either aran's opinions, or on the opinions of you guys. so you really can't blame me for not trying my best to please you. :)

Now with shadow, since that apparently makes it more "professional".
i'd like to think it's because of the overall smoothness, but hey.

I still think the crown should be pointy on the top, otherwise it looks too much like the Budweiser crown. Same goes for TGM's logo.
i'll try that tomorrow.

The sun is wearing the crown? What the heck does that mean? I know I'm reading too much into them, but if you're going to consciously include symbols you may as well be conscious about how you use them.
ask aran, it was his idea (you know, he's the guy that *owns* the website for which we're designing logos).

No access to that camp for you, I'm afraid. The outpost in question only serves as an infinite experience pool for the player. :-)

Heh, thanks, I guess. :-)

Anyways, I am afraid I still lack a solution to the unbalancing effect this kind of a system would have to the rest of the game. Because seriously, a heavily beefed up and well equipped a warrior ally could wreck the game pretty badly. :-/

I might understand you wrongly, but isn't the inventory-system of Geneforge 3 just like that?

Anyway, here's an examplary image describing my idea, since, judging by the lack of responses, my earlier writing was incomprehensible or something. :-F

I were reading through the "Changes in GF4"-thread, and came up with a, in my opinion, at least, pretty neat idea. I didn't wish to derail that topic anymore, however, and decided to create a new one. Acceptable, I hope. :-/

So, ahem, people were talking about the NPCs that can join your party, but will act on their own, instead of being controlled by the player.

This idea of mine does not apply to this kind of allies only, but to normal creations and such as well, which means that no, I have not come up with a way of fixing the AI (Just looking at code and scripts and such almost brings tears to my eyes, so I perhaps am not the correct person to even try and do so. :-F). No, I have come up with a rather unoriginal and surely before-mentioned way of buffing your creations and allies up.

Since the allies usually can not be controlled in battle like creations, they tend to attempt foolish things, like attacking a spawner and a bunch of clawbugs all by themselves. And then they just die.

But here's an idea; Mr. Vogel could implement a system like in, for example, Heroes of Might and Magic, in the Wake of Gods (the unofficial expansion to the HoMM series), where the heroes can equip their troops with artifacts and other useful (or unuseful) objects.

In Geneforge, this could be done the almost exact same way, by giving all of the creations/allies inventory-windows of their own, with restricions, depending on the creature.

Say, a Fyora could (in theory, at least), wear a ring or a necklace, to add to it's resistances, while a thad/human ally could also be equipped with armor, weapons, and so on. You get the idea. :-/

So, while the AI controlled creations and allies would still be rather dumb, at least the player could equip them and his own creations properly, so that it would take more that one hit to bring them down.

Not being a code-wiz myself, I have no idea whether this would take too much time to implement, and whether it would be worth it, or not. But hey, one has always got to try! ;-)

The movie adaption of the Hitchiker's Guide to Galaxy was even less hilarious than the book, in my honest opinion. Guess I am just special in a way, or something. :/

But still, teaching shaping, magic and/or fighting to a previously traitorous servile, or an outside human... That would be just insane. I am, anyhow, curious as to how exactly Mr. Vogel will make this game turn out, since I honestly think the previous chapters all were exceptionally good. :)

Geneforge: The Gene-Manipulation Menace (Every Saga Has a Beginning)
Geneforge 2: The Section Wars
Geneforge 3: Revenge of the Reptiles

The screenshots for Geneforge 4: Rebellion, even though they are pretty early ones are promising. I just hope that Mr. Vogel adds some realism to the game. By this I mean, that I hope the Shapers will not tolerate me to learn to shape... anything, and would, instead of laughing at my face, like, try and punish me for my rebellious thoughts. ;)

(If i decide to try and win their trust by switching sides, that is.)
