Barihawk Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 wouldnt boat wars make melee fighters useless? and how exacly would a boat give a fishing advantage, unless its the same as trawling, which we already have... Have ropes on the boats, so warriors can swing to the enemy's boat and kill people :P. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliisgood Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 well, it could be a good idea, but do we really need it? The real main problem that I see with this it that if you could use your boat anywhere, Jagex would have to make a lot of maps and that would cause quite a bit of lag.

Toxicologist Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Erm you put me on the support list... I said it sounds good, but will cause major lag, so no. For fishing we already have, as someone stated before, a fishing trawler... and I don't see why you would want sea battles, as it seems to extend the Wilderness to all the seas... For transport, we already have transport ships... Unless you want piracy? But then we can just teleport... Good idea, but impractical in terms of use and lag. Why do you resist? My experiments are only helping humanity push the boundaries of the Art of Toxicology... you should be proud to be one of my victims. ~Toxicologist~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12bigo12 Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 oh ok sorryi ill bring every thing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12bigo12 Posted December 2, 2005 Author Share Posted December 2, 2005 I was thinking about it. It sounded cool so i wanted to post it here. Well first of all you need to do a certain quest have certain carpentry (yes itÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s when carpentry and POHs come out) and also a certain fishing. Different logs depend on what type and how big the boat will be. Well tell me if ya like it or hate it. Boats will be like for better fishing chances and faster fishing. Also the boat CAN sink. Once the boat sinks you lose your catch that you got that time. It's like the mini game but different. Also if Jagex can, they can make new things to fish. Boats are fishing only. For you who donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t know the Romans used to flood the coliseum and have boat wars, so if lets say 3 days out of the 7 days castle wars changed to where there were like 2 boats and people shoot cannon and arrows at each other ( no guns!) you guys can feed off this thought. (gotsol idea). I told my friend about this and he told me some great stuff (glitch z13) I also did some new up-dates. In the boat wars the mages can attack the people on the boat and they can attack the boat itself. So say if they use fire strike it has a chance to light the boat on fire( 25% for fire wave then starts to decrese), but of course it can be distinguished. The warriors will set planks if other boats get close enough and then raid the other peoples boat and try to get the flag, (yes the flag is in the boat, first team to capture 3 flags win). The planks can be burned, the higher your firmaking the faster itÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ll burn (firemaking aint that useless now is it?) Is anyone is one the plank when it is burning they will fall in the water, be suspended for 10-15 seconds then appear back in the bottom of the boat where the flag is. The boat can also sink so people will need to repair it. Now onto the rangers! They will be able to range people (no arrows wonÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t sink the boat and no there will not be fire arrows) on other boats, but thatÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s not all rangers can also use cannons to sink the boat. There are other ways for people to get on the boat like adding a new thing to smithing where you can make grapples so they can swing to one bat to another. If boats sink during battle the opposing force can get their flag because it will be suspended on the water for 30 seconds. I donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t have the boat controlling down just right. I was thinking about one person chosen in the beginning that controls the ship (they cant be harmed, only when boat sinks). I think I covered everything, if I didnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t plz tell me. If there are any questions plz ask. Thank you.

lpinkus Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I like the boat wars idea, but not if it replaces castle wars part of the time. It should be it's own thing in it's own watery arena. Neat idea. lpinkus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
