Ok this is for viva la vida and anyone else who would be interested. I got some scoop from DarkShoGun about this map he told me he has been making and I asked him if I could post the details here and ofcoarse he said yes. I posted in the site discussion so this topic can gain more awareness. Well it looks like DarkShoGun has been making a parasite 3 but I wouldn't make it an official announcement because knowing dark he changes his mind a lot. So I took some notes and here are the details...

- It takes place on a moon.
- You can fly in space.
- Humans can combo weapons and armor suits.
- Weapons need ammo to shoot (which is calculated by an item charge) and armor suits use mana to use their abilities.
- The android (formally ai) can use weapons and items like humans can in addition to having 3 special inventory slots that hold android exclusive items for giving it extra abilities. You can get 3 different abilities or concentrate on leveling one specific ability. These special items are interchangeable for constant variety.
- The blood tester can't be destroyed but it needs generators turned on to work.
- No oxygen is more dangerous since humans have only 60.
- Power and oxygen are linked (when power turns off oxygen goes bye bye with it) but to turn off power you need to turn off 3 generators and the more generators turned off means fewer things will work.
- Much more lore in P3... theres alot of things about different factions that exist in the P3 universe like my favorite, The Crown Empire (british fascists of hebrew decent who control earth 0.o).
- You can use a radar (or something) to call for back up from space but theres a chance space pirates or rival factions intercept the call and come instead.
- Aliens don't evolve instead evolution is replaced by a "better" system. Dark didn't say what it is.
- Alien all together has been significantly improved and much more fun says Dark, but once again he didn't go into detail.
- The first release will be light in content but as it updates pre-planned stuff will be added. Dark says he is doing this to speed up P3's release.


Disscuss.

'The blood tester can't be destroyed but it needs generators turned on to work.

These are the only things I disagree with, but zomg...

Thats just stupid, if I understand correctly.
From what I gather, you turn off generators to disable the bt, but anyone can turn them on at any given time, correct? Because if so, that screws up the game considerably... goodbye strategy, sigh.

As for oxygen, I sure hope there's gunna atleast be seperate oxy on ships and the moon, otherwise SS+oxyoff = win...

Lastly, the ammo. Yet another less item to have...

Meh. Dissapointment...

Rolf, zeph here is why blood tesrer is invurable.
Okay, firstly thars 3 gens around the map, making it alot harder to get the blood tester online, Oh you can send peoples off to each of em and camp? Ambush one with your army of minions(Which I'm sure will be able to turn of the gen) They all come to the aid of one? go turn the others off.
Also I think random events will be changed, remember this is NOT Para 2 with new suits, terrian, etc, this will be alot more interesting in group dynamics.
Also, ammo gives you another reason to work as a team, If i would present to you how Earthbound worked, There were no items like healing stim, adernel stim, thermal, emc, etc, you only had a suit, weapon, ammo, and buyable powerups.
To make it short and simple, good players will no longer be those who can solo a para and an army, good players will be those who keep tabs on others and know how to play properly.

So the generators that power the BT aren't the same that keep the power on, and they start out being off?
That's okay then.
As for the gameplay thing, good players in p2 can do both. I'm all for more teamwork, cept they'd have to buff the para, and then there's the problem of newbs/noobs/tkingnoobs/jumptoconclusionscrubs/sadistictkingnoobs/morons/sadistictkingmoronicnoobwhojumpstoconlcusions/rompadomp.

It would make para even less accessible to newbs :(

Yes... but I estimate a good 90% of bnet players (yes, that was an arbitrary number. sue me :P) are either nubs, scrubs, newbs, sadists or generally incompetent.

I'd also say only about half of the competent players are willing to try new things, and only another 2% or so stick with para :(

Eh. My point is, there are very few people on bnet that I'd want as a teammate in para, premades aside.

Then there's another thing about teamwork in para. What do you do if you're the para?
You can hardly get up to mischeif when you are perpetually grouped with humans :(

Also, how often is enough infe members online to make a sizable group? :P
