New Pq idea Soccer

I was wondering if you guys be interested in this: A soccer party quest. Lets make is similar to monster carnival in that you receive an invite every 30 or so minutes and the game breaks you up into teams, say 6 vs. 6. Unlike regular MS the surface of play is that of your screen {you can move up down left right, but no jump}. The game proceeds for 8 min, and it is up to the team to work together to determine positions. Unlike regular soccer, in this version, you can attack the other players. Players don't die when they the run out of hit points they just go on a time out for 15 seconds, while the rest of the game continues. This of course, makes it unreasonable for a low level person to play with a high lvl person, so as monster carnival does, players of a given level will be playing with players at a similar level. The ball will be 1cm in diameter with the goal being 3cm in length. The team with the most points at the end wins. Each player on the winner team receives 1 soccer pq coin and 5% exp of their current level. The coins can be trading in for interesting equips, while 200 coins are required for the grand prize, a shoe equip, that when equipped shows a small soccer ball in front of your character that rolls along with you as you walk.

[quote=estella1212]what @nightlordz said .. just another version of capture the flag xD[/quote]

In this you don't hold the flag, you kick the ball, this is top down, while capture the flag is side scrolling. You can kick the ball to your team mates, as in a real soccer game (you've watched one right?). You have positions, granted maybe difficult to get people to stay in them. I will admit there are similarities, but it was not the intent on making another version of capture the flag.

They should just have it on the normal 2d map and "kicking" the ball can be done with normal attacks ir attack skills. I feel like that would be easiet

[quote=NightLordz]So basically pvp flag capture?[/quote]

Well sorta, but no jail, and you don't hold the ball. However as ox0Shad0w0xo said we could have an arcade with multiple games, and pvp capture the flag could be there

Edit: Sorry I thought he meant capture the flag, (the real life version).

This soccer idea is really broken. How about that 9 second stun from dragon roar? Lol.

[quote=ox0Shad0w0xo]I'm not a huge fan of soccer, but the concept could be fun. The way I understand what you're saying is that it would be played with a top down view? I wouldn't mind maybe adding this and a few other games into like a "maple arcade" (give people a reason to go into the game place in henesys), where there's different mini games like this where players can compete and get mini-game coins that can be traded in for various scrolls and equips. All of the mini games should feature our characters, or at least a character that we can change the look of. Maybe a top-down soccer game like you described, but with each character having a specific special move for their class(think mario style sports), maybe a tetris/puyo pop type of game where you can compete against multiple others at the same time. There's plenty of things they could do with this. It would give maplers something different.[/quote]

Ah yes, top down view that was the word I couldn't think of, and having it in a "maple arcade" would also be a fine. I would hope that the each of the grand prize would be somehow related to the game. If people weren't interested in a little soccer ball, then maybe each game's grant prize would be a chair. I.e. a soccer ball chair, and an L shaped block chair for tetris

[quote=Wush]this would just completely ruin the atmosphere and seem like something random just put into the game i would understand if it was some event like the world cup or something like that[/quote]

Reasonable comment, then lets make it only for the world cup.

[quote=MikeVit]Well, I acknowledge that it would take a bit of programming to get it to work, but thats not your problem that's Nexons [/quote]

It'll be a problem for everyone if there are multiple longer maintenance updates just to fix this. Also, how do you expect to have a soccer game added into a 2D game?
If you can't jump, like you clearly said we wouldn't be able to, then there's absolutely no point. You can jump in real soccer, so why take away that aspect? "determine positions" Like, front, middle, back? No.
EDIT: I also don't understand how we would be able to attack one another if we see our characters as if we're above them?
Lastly, I'm almost 100% positive there would be something wrong with the goalie. Like, depending on which class it is covering the goal, they would have major advantages. This game would just be too uneven. Unless, of course, Nexon was to incorporate skills that are custom for the PQ, which take place of normal skills. Still, I don't see it working.

My character is too fat and would die of a heart attack.
Realistically, I don't really like the idea. I can imagine how broken it would be when it first comes out, and how much maintenance it would require in order to work properly.
