Title: [CLOSED] [POLL] What to play next?
Post by: Meridian on September 04, 2015, 05:02:44 pm
Hi folks!

The Final Mod Pack LP is (probably) coming to an end in 5-15 episodes.
So I'd like to ask what (and if) would you like to see next?

1. The first option is X-PirateZ by Dioxine... if I don't get any feedback I will play this by default. Ivan Dogovich has set a high standard, hopefully I can continue in his footsteps... and add some unique flavour.

2. Second option is Hardmode Expansion by Hellrazor. There's no LP yet for this expansion AFAIK.

3. Then there's UFO Redux by Hobbes. There is already an LP by NeptunesNook, but Hobbes has made a lot of changes in the meantime and more are coming so I am quite eager to give it a try.

4. Is there any other (big enough) expansion or total conversion, which I've missed? Btw. I'm waiting for Robin's total conversion too, but that will probably still take some time...

5. OpenTFTD without mods?

(or reply to this post)

Thanks,
Meridian

When are you planning to start your series?

I'm flexible (FMP can be played a lot longer if necessary), but I would like to start recording a new LP by the end of October, give or take.

Ah, that's cool since the next version of Redux should be ready by next week or something. :)

I would appreciate a playthrough :)
But to be honest i wanna implement some stuff first, even thou you can try the beta Version 0.93b,
most serious bugs are gone, but i am already putting in new stuff and new missions.
So better wait.

With all the new stuff added since Ivan's run, Piratez could be a pretty interesting playthrough.

I'd like to see something differet, so voted for hellrazor's! I'd wait for the 0.94 though. And please, in the neme of the video, along with mod name, may you imdicate its version? Eg. Let's play hardmode expansion 0.94. :)

Also, a serie of a first tc for openTFTD would be appreciated,  but wait first for openxcom 2.0 to be relased. ;)

My vote is Piratez, because it sounds like an amazing mod, but I'm fusionballs deep in a TFTD play through right now and don't like to have too many games on the go at once; Don't Starve, Binding of Isaac, FF14 all on the go. Could do with a time machine maybe.

It'd be interesting to see how the game plays, that's what LP's are all about for me.

It was a tough fight, but X-PirateZ won over hellrazor's expansion by 5 votes (29:24).

Buckle up guys(gals?), it's gonna be a rough ride!

Preliminary start of the LP is November 2015, I will be taking soldier requests... but don't apply just yet, there will be a separate thread for it.

Pre-reserved are two slots:
1. Dioxine
2. Ivan Dogovich

Since resources are scarce, we'll be having only about 16-20 soldiers at a time and a waiting list.
Soldiers will *not* be automatically resurrected.

What a shame :-/
Maybe you can consider it for your next attempt.
