or it fail just as all other projects here at forum

Don't worry. Many of the guys on the forums were sceptical about JNC to, but it didn't fail. It was a great success. It all depends on the participants. As I remember, you're one of them, so, if you think it'll fail, why did you wanna join? I really don't want someone to join if they don't want to give their best to make this project work..

[pauliux2]

When Jimmy is the boss to of crew,nothing can go bad.When TonyCJ is the boss of the crew....You know what...

[Stuntzman]

Um, do you even have a story to start with? Just asking...

Yes Stuntz, there is a story.. Jimmy and I have already thought of a story, and I think he is pming other people about the idea.

 

 

 

The point is to have a simple story and not well developed because multiple designers are creating the whole story with missions.

 

 

 

 

Like I make mission A and make the player go to a store.

 

 

The next person on the list makes Mission B and he can decide what ever happens next, as long as he keeps the main character alive til the end of the series.

 

 

Beta Story:

 

A group of 6 experienced and smart robbers were gathered up by a crime lord to rob a casino vault in Las Venturas with 40 million dollars in it which will be transfered into a City Bank in 3 days. Every member of that robbery crew has a hidden motive to steal the money for himself. Two out of 6 robbers know each other, but no one knows that except them. In the night of the robbery, they decide to run away with the money. They succeed. Now, the rest of the crew, including the crime lord, are after the 2 robbers.

 

20 years later the 2 robbers are in prison facing Death Row.. telling their story of that night and what exactly happened after that night of the robbery.

 

 

 

We have not thought about names yet, and the main Character's skin is Claude skin

Yes, I do understand how it works, I followed the JNC topic back in January.

[Jimmy_Leppard]

i dont want to leave

 

jimmy please dont kick me out

I won't kick you out, man. Just have a little faith in us. You all make great missions. Nothing will go wrong. Trust me.

[Stuntzman]

OK, so does the story start when they are planning the robbery?

[Jimmy_Leppard]

Something about that. You'll see everything on June 4th. But, as Doublepulse wrote, the story will be about planning the robbery, the robbery and afterwards

Offtopic: Sorry, but my brother used my PC and wrote stupid reply's... (I hadn't log out, sorry)

 

anyway, Cool beta version!

I understand the story, although what role has the protagonist exactly? Or should there be more protagonists?

[Jimmy_Leppard]

We discussed the ''multiple protagonists'' option. It's not a great idea cause there are multiple mission designers and it would be very hard to follow the story with every participant jumping from one protagonist to another. So, there will be one protagonist only.

 

The next thing I was going to ask you is:

 

1.) Do you think the protagonist should be one of the 2 criminals that secretly know each other?

2.) Do you think the protagonist should be one of the criminals who doesn't know anyone from the group?

Option one sounds better to me.

[Jimmy_Leppard]

Yea. I would go with that option to. Also, you asked what would be the role of the protagonist. Well, his role, like everyone elses is to help the team of criminals to get into the casino vault and get the money. After that, his role is to run away with all the money, or if you want, to steal the money from other criminals. But, he doesn't know that every member of the group wants the money for himself to.

[guib]

Wich casino is it going to be?

 

If it is the The Four Dragons Casino, we can make Traids to defend it, if it is Caligula's Palace, we can make the mafia to defend it...

[Mati]

I simply love stories like this. A little like my first mission pack, where various different people with different personal goals storm a military base.

 

As for the intro mission, it should be the scene in prison.

[Jimmy_Leppard]

@guib - We don't know yet. But it won't involve gangs, I think. The only people who will defend the casino will be the police and FBI.

 

@mati - The intro mission will be about the 6 criminals and the crime lord and how they travel to a gathering meeting point. But, the beginning of the intro will probably be in prison where our main character is being held in the present day and he'll start retelling the story how he got into prison (the meeting, the robbery etc.)

[guib]

But it won't involve gangs

What?!?

Do you mean that only the casino don't involve gangs, or the whole missionpack?

[Jimmy_Leppard]

The mission pack isn't a ''gang type'' mission pack. It's more of a regular action movie type. We'll see about gangs. But, in general, I think there is a chance that there will be gangs involved. The question is where will the protagonist run and who will he meet in on the run. If a participant decides to involve Mafia or street gangs into the story, then it'll be gangs. Maybe he runs into some Mafia which will want his money..

Ok, i didn't ment that is going to be ''Gangsta!''

 

[Stuntzman]

About the protagonist retelling the story, I'm suggesting a style that some movies use - the entire story is told by the protagonist in third person, if you get my point.

 

If you've seen Sin City you'll understand what I mean.

I don't think that's a great idea. I talked to some of the participants so far and they've chosen the option in which the protagonist in ''present day'' (in the prison) is shown only 2 times - Once on the beginning - Where we see how some inmate wants the protagonist to tell him his story, and once on the end of the mission pack - Just to remind us that the story was being re-told.

 

So, the missions which will be played will be set in the past, but with the cut-scenes and dialogues in the present. The protagonist will talk in first person..I think that will make the story more enjoyable and interesting.

[Stuntzman]

Oh, I thought that he was confessing to the police.

 

I think there should be a part in the middle of the storyline where it's in present day, just to remind the player.

Yea. We can occasionaly put the present day talking about the story.

[General Scrotum]

You can count on me to do video walkthrough of the missions too.

[Stuntzman]

What I meant by third person, is that the present day protagonist talks in the background while the action is in the past. Minimum actual screentime for him.
