    • Shouldnt there be evo with multiplayer capabilities??


      ONce i had a great idea for evo. It would be like blizzards battle.net except for when you log on your account you start thew game right away. You play with everyin else whos online. You could fight eachother or make a ransom for not killing them, etc. You could be a bounty hunter and get missions to kill people who are just killing every one else if u have any great ideas for an EVO multiplayer please reply..........

      No. There never will be an EVMP. Ambrosia has said so MANY, MANY, MANY times.

      You're not the first one to think of this either. About 2000 or so had the same idea before you. Its not gonna happen.

      Like Walnut, said sounds like a great idea! I'll go download the source code for EV, add a few modifications, dedicate my mainframe as a server and release EVMP in about a week or so.

    • Here read this thread: (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum9/HTML/001127.html#")http://www.AmbrosiaS...ML/001127.html#(/url) On that topic I made a list of the many many things that would have to be done to normal EVO in order to get an EV/O multiplayer.

    • EVO is not built to be a multiplayer game... It will be hellish to try and change it.

      But if you insist on trying, knock yourself dead, which you'll probably do.

      I'm always making the mods mad doing something or another, but I'll never learn! I'll never turn! Look at my karma!

    • You're absolutely right. The point of my starting that topic on which I listed all the things that would have to be done was to show everyone that trying to make EV or EVO a multi-player game is completely impossible.

    • I completely agree with OctoberFost. Whilst fun, it would be impossible.

    • Closest you'll get are EV RPGs or my Darkstream Project. It's for an EV-style Planetarion. Check out my discussion thread here:

      It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.

    • An EVO PA would be cool.

      I have some time this weekend, so once I finish writing the 5,000 missions, plus rendering each of the 1200 ships, I might have time to add multiplayer.

    • Thanks, Buba!

    • No there will NEVER be an EVMP!

      (sarcasm)Don't forget to make it all in 3D!!! We can't live without 3D EV MP. Ooo, ooo, how are you getting around the time issue and how are you going to handle landing and stuff without people becoming too strong?(/sarcasm)

      Let's continue the pattern.

      This topic is pretty much pointless, big deal...
