To make ROTT 2?

What o you think?Do you think they should make a rott@?My answer is Yes.

Of course they should make a sequel, that game was too good to be left that way, unfortunatly they are not going to do anything about that game one way or another.

I think we are aiming too high, how about 3dR will re-pack ROTT, returning the removed enemies, adding EROTT, and the rejected levels?

That would require reprogramming the game - that won't ever happen.

Joe's probably really bored with reading about people wanting to bring ROTT back to life. But, look at the load of people who do want something to happen with ROTT.

Crosma, you're right. However, I am the ONLY person here who gives a crap about ROTT anymore. There is just no interest from management on doing anything with the game ever again.

If there's anything to come, it will have to be the form of levels/art/other stuff from the user community.

I've started working on another level - but it's a very low priority.

I myself would settle for a new set of quality levels.

Hey Joe, any chance of us bribing you into making one?

I'm remaking Blake Stone E1L1 (Inspired by Joe's Wolf3D level)...but I haven't touched it in a long while (I only had the first main room really finished

[PsychoGoatee]

This won't happen, but a ROTT total-conversion for any newer game like Quake3 or UT would kick major-ass!

On the question of ROTT2 (which would be a community project) would you guys favour an engine along the style of the original i.e. 90 degree walls or something more advanced like Doom or Quake?

It would have to be unreal. Writing mods for QuakeIII is too damn hard.

[Draco]

You cant do a ROTT mod, unless you changed the names and properties of anything. Use any textures, pictures, hell, even the title, and 3drealms will come down on yer ass.

So? Upcoming of the Triangular Shaped Object isn't such a bad title, is it?

Oh, wait. It is.

Re: the legal issues. I'm pretty sure a new ROTT could be done in a way to keep 3DR happy.

The feedback I'm getting from people is that the new ROTT game would have enhancements over the original, but still be easy to create new levels for. The essential thing is to retain ROTT's original charm for those fans that still exist.

Delphi Dude said he would like new *quality* levels for the original ROTT. Are there any groups still creating these? Any URLS?

Tony

I agree. I've played that game so many times over modem and ipx it isn't funny! A Rott2 made with Unreal would kick major ass, but how would any of us be able to do it?
