The topic is probably to filter out the worst suggestions. No I won't send request to add second mouse button scroll option.... But how come Mac only supports only one mouse button? Isn't it a lot more convinient to have four mouse buttons plus a wheel? Come to think of it, I would like to have two wheels and three buttons... Posts: 17 | Registered: Friday, June 3 2005 07:00 |

There IS a mac-mouse with several buttons, but it is old, clumsy and does not work with todays computers. -------------------- "..The seventh wave of Thrall stumbled and climbed over the slippery, piled dead and Mazzarin saw The Watcher with them and at last knew the number of his days."

I want to see: -Dialogue/banter interaction with companions, and possibly romance ;) -Ability to set gender, and have people actually call you by name, instead of "Shaper" -Support for higher resolutions -More creations. Not necessarily more powerful, but more variety. Posts: 51 | Registered: Friday, October 31 2003 08:00 |

No Mac users wants Jeff to mess with right-clicking; it would be a pain. I might have to go out and buy a two-button mouse just to play a game. :mad: -------------------- Whatever happens, happens.

Ah, romance in Geneforge IV. Two young creations meet in the steaming swamps and fall in love. The cruel Shapers who control them forbid their union, on the senseless grounds that a mating of Submission Vlish and Rabid Roamer could bring no good. Plot complications build, alarums and excursions, and in the fifth act everybody gets re-absorbed.

Bravo! Cmon, we are deciding the direction the world will take in the near future in G2 and G3. Probably the same in G4. A Shaper (with capital letter), the Chosen One understands, controls and directs his feelings. Posts: 17 | Registered: Friday, June 3 2005 07:00 |

1-No minotaurs, please {it's a sci-fi game; not mid-evil} and no more plot ideas; jeff probably already has his mind made up for the next 2 already; you remember in G2, if you play a shaper, shanti teaches you how to make an artila. there is actually hand gestures and movements to it. how about, if you have to do, like a keyboard combo start- 1 2gh yif -end; and if you do it wrong you have a retard on your hands and make the sex for the classes interchangeable? the only thing i hate is only making 4 different creations and you can only wear one ring- i read many people complain about it, but the magic only works if you wear one, they'll cancel each other out. and the graphics are fine, i can't have the graphics to great or the game will be all choppy. even G3 is a little choppy. maybe have the stuff you wear actually visible? i dont know. and creating serviles would be cool :D -------------------- Nothing beats Star Wars Posts: 17 | Registered: Thursday, June 9 2005 07:00 |

quote:hmm... I've seen this sort of thing stated before (saw it as a 3 somewhere). I'm able to have 5 different creations with my shaper (or 4 + alwan). Does this have to do with intelligence of the character or the level, or are people just miscounting when they post? Posts: 107 | Registered: Tuesday, April 19 2005 07:00 |

You are allowed to have six different creatures in your group, including you and Greta/Alwan. You can either have four different creations and take Alwan or Greta, or you can have five different creations and not take Alwan or Greta.

Well the translation of what I wrote: When you have made too many different types of creations the game says “You can only have at most six types of creations in your group.” The game counts you as one of your creations. Alwan and Greta are each a creation, and each will fill a slot. So, if you do not have Alwan or Greta, you can make up too five different types (you can of course have multiples of the same) If you have one of the two (Alwan or Greta) you can make five different types of creations. If you have both Alwan and Greta you can make up to four different types of creations.

I want the central question of the game to be something other than "How should Shapers treat their retarded midget servants?" Because I don't ****ing care. Posts: 2 | Registered: Friday, June 10 2005 07:00 |

Serviles with the ability to shape would be cool. I could imagine rebels using the geneforge to change serviles to give them that ability and the abilty to use canisters. The player could also possibly be a hybrid offspring of a servile/human/shaper (one pair of the 3) that fell in love and had a child. New creations once you get your skill in the creature up to 5 are a must. I want my battle gamma! Instead of GIFTS there can be a hidden dungeon full of talking ornks! Or an insane servant mind that wishes to take over the world! or can at least leave its tray and walk around some, able to eat stuff other than the protien goop that they normaly eat.

Perhaps less madness? Someone with the abillity to shape that actually realizes that if they continue to alter themsleves and the world then the **** will hit the fan, as it obviously allready has. -------------------- "..The seventh wave of Thrall stumbled and climbed over the slippery, piled dead and Mazzarin saw The Watcher with them and at last knew the number of his days."

-Dual wielding. -Two handed weapons like halberds and maybe a thorn bazooka. -A new magic craft skill, which lets you build different types of golems. A skill that should be availible to all three characters and easier to acquire than shaping but golems should be expensive to build, costing gold and resources, they would be unable to gain levels but you can upgrade them by investing more resources and they can't heal on their own unless they have been upgraded with that function but can be repaired with living tools. -Shaper/guardian/agent only items. -Pack mules. -An apprentice of your own. -New Agent graphics. -Changes in your appearance based on your actions, for example you should get an insignia on your clothes based on the faction you join and you begin to glow if you use lots of canisters.

In G3 Akari said that ghaldring sent out more drakons than just himself to make geneforges. Couldn't another drakon get that close to making a GF. [ Sunday, June 12, 2005 07:38: Message edited by: Ghaldrings_doom ] Posts: 626 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

In G1 a servile named heustess said that shapers attacked his kind. That means that Shapers didn't discover how to make serviles but enslaved them and studied them so they could make more. Posts: 626 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |
