Bah, T-Rex is a highly overrated predator. The Allosaurus can kick its ass in terms of big and mean, and raptors are much better hunters. No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. |

A few weeks ago someone suggested an insect world MMO. Same idea. Sounds interesting and might be a lot of fun. But you would run into the same problems as the insect one. How would your character advance, it you had advancement? What about equipment? Could you have any for an animal MMO. And then character customization. How could you make it so each dinosaur had its own look? But it might call for a radical overhaul that had other characteristics than your typical MMORPG to make it fun to play. I would probably play a pterodactyl so I could fly. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tK6YIAX1jg |

Have we forgotten the flying dinos and the underwater ones? Would those be put into the idea? BTW for a previous post speaking about gear advancement etc. You make a valid point but since the idea isnt what we may call normal...neither should the approach. I am sure there are many fresh concepts to go along with games like these. But its too freaking late and im tired maybe ill post some in the morning. |

Why not twist the evolutionary timetable, make it an alternate Earth scenario. Only this time, mammals/humans came into being during the reign of dinosaurs. You could also have a third class, answering the question of "What if humans evolved from the dinosaurs, instead of apes/mammals?". So you would have dinosaurs/cro-magnaur/dinomen on one side of the evolutionary scale, and primates/cro-magnon/human on the other. That's 6 seperate factions that could work for or against each other. And there could be technology on both sides, making the dinomen and human factions the crafters/engineers/strategist, the cro's would be the artillery units: smart enough to learn to use the weapons and follow orders, and the primates/dinosaurs would be the brunt force units.
Edit: this post is copyrighted 07/02/2007, as it's crazy enough to work. I may see how this would translate through a MUD for starters. |

I'm surprised a Dinotopia MMORPG hasn't been mentioned yet. |
