      I'm sorry if this has already been asked but I do not remember ever reading about it. Will Coldstone allow for multiple endings. I ask this because in the game I am planning on making will allow the player to take different paths to get to the same ending. I would make it multiple endings but then it is harder to make the beginning of a sequel if I make one. Anyway, sorry for wasting your time and I would appreciate any answer any of you could provide. Thanks. :frown:

      It should be quite easy to make multiple endings, all you need to do is create an event that shuts off the other plotline. I'm planning on having multiple endings in my game too.

      multiple endings are great and all, but it leaves a lot open for discussion. 2 veteran characters that have each beaten the game through 1 ending would have trouble talking to each other and comparing strategies. But, since Coldstone won't allow networks this shouldn't be a problem. If you played Starcraft and made levels with that it was fairly easy to have multiple endings(which I did, quite often) so I think with CS it shouldn't be hard at all.

      I can see no concievable reason why Coldstone wouldn't allow multiple endings. It really doesn't know what the ending is, and if it didn't allow for multiple endings that would pretty much mean that you could not change anything that happens. If you talked to an inn owner, you would HAVE to rest. (For all Coldstone knows the resting would be the end of the game). Depending on where the split(s) occur though, engineering the multiple endings could be tough. One easy way might have the game base the endings on karma, which apparantly will probably exist.

      Thank you all for your advice. I can't wait for Coldstone to come out. I'm thinking about starting my own webpage for the game I'm doing. I haven't decied yet and I need to find the time so don't hold anything against me if I don't. Cheers. 🙂

      Not really, I live in California. I was trying not to be repetitive. Like any of this really matters though. Au revoir mon amis. For those of you that don't speak french it means Good-bye my friends. 😄
