Suit Up! |
| Posted By: War @ Aug 22 2008, 02:34 AM |
Marine ExoSuits
The marines have developed a new type of technology. The ExoSuit.
This bulking piece of robotics acts as a one man vehicle for the marines. The human can crawl up into it and move about using advanced hyrdolics.
The ExoSuit can provide the marine with great armor if the crafter is skilled enough. More armor than any chestplate could provide.
The Marine working the new suit will not be able to get into it wearing the armor they already have on. So the marine must remove all current armor in order to fit into the ExoSuit.
The Marine also can not carry any weapons with them when entering the suit. There just is no room for it.
----------------
The Marine however, WILL find that the ExoSuit is not just a hulking shield for them, but it also comes equipped with an ExoSuit Cannon! When the Marine enters the suit, they will have access to this powerful gun.
This gun runs on energy provided by the suit so it does not need any ammunition.
The Suit may provide the Marine with good armor and firepower, however the marine will not be able to enter the HQ of their home base. The Suit can only be parked in garages.
This means if the Marine wishes to take cover back at home base, they will need to leave the suit.
Also while the Marine is in the suit, they will lose some adrenaline and posts over time. The amount is not great but prolonged residence in an ExoSuit wreaks havoc on the human mind.
--------------------------------
Rumors within the Marine HQ are spreading that the developers in the plants have started mass production on some powerful types of multi-person vehicles. Soon Marines may not have to walk to hive entrances in order to exterminate the hordes of bugs. |

New Marine Updates |
| Posted By: War @ Aug 20 2008, 06:00 PM |
Humans have always been a striving industrial species. They have now improved the production of supplies to USCM troops around the galaxy.
Crafters now can make pistols using the pistol blueprints:
Pistols are weaker than pulse rifles, but have a much greater chance of not breaking. Crafting them is also much easier.
----------
Marine crafters can now also recycle any item in their inventory and turn them into resources!
Using the Resource Extractor:
Marines can now use this item and recycle any object. Most crafted items retain some mineral base to them, when run through this machine, they are able to be extracted. The resources are then distributed evenly between all types of resources for balanced building.
Crafted items may yield more resources than standard items such as clan papers and clone lab tools.
------------
Marine crafters have also had a reduction in prices of the blueprints used to create items. Thus moving their industrial ways even moreso into the future.
Soldiers and the like will now see more weapons and armor being made through production than ever before as the assembly lines heat up for the Humans. |

Window Based Front End Is Here |
| Posted By: War @ Aug 10 2008, 09:02 PM |
In order to make the game function more fluidly with the forums, I have made a windows based front end.
What this does is lets you have a central HUB for the site. Having multiple areas and information from the site at your fingertips on one screen.
Using advanced technology known as "a window", you can now move around, resize, minimize or customize the windows to your own liking.
The windows given are windows for your basic stats. This appears on the top left.
The news window appears at the top middle and will always show the most recent news article.
On the top right are the time window, and a snapshot of every item in your inventory.
In the middle you will see the main forum window so you can continue to use the forums as well as a window for the chat, Letting you chat while using the site at the exact same time!
You can of course close, minimize and move the windows around to your liking if you want.
Also, if you close some windows you will see a background AVPVM image in red. This is the default background image. You can however change this to whatever you like.
In your profile area, you can link to a new image if you like:
Simply input the URL to the image and save your profile. Keep in mind you may want the image to be roughly the same size as your screen resolution. If your monitor is set to 1024x768, get an image roughly that size. Only you will see it, so it wont be an eyesore for anyone else.
Over time, there may be more additions or tweaks to the interface area. Such as other windows added.
As usual if you really do not like the, you can always keep the same URL to the site and use that instead: http://www.avpvm.com/forums/
However this will enable people to multitask on one screen. |

Welcome to AvPvM.com!
This is a web MMO based on the Aliens vs Predator universe. That includes by default, humans who are the marines.
This is mainly a message forum. However it has incredable RPG game technology built into it and lets you play out a real AvP RPG through your browser!
What you see here is the main news page. Updates to the game will be displayed on this front news area. From here you can log in or register. We will now visit the registration area and you can create your character!
You can move forward in this tour by clicking on the arrows in the upper left of this box.
Here, you can register a new account. The first area is basic forum information, a name, password email etc. The later part is where you create your character.
Choose from:
- Aliens - Can regenerate blood, turn other members into aliens with facehuggers, and heal by using headbites
- Predators - Have very powerfull weapons. Can carry the most weight. Have a self nuke weapon
- Marines - Get bonus to money, have higher intelect so they can craft easier, more variety in weapons.
Each species can then select a profession.
- Soldiers - Soldiers get bonuses to attacking other members, and can even get looted items off of killing other members of the game.
- NPC Hunters - These guys have the ability to hunt NPC units. NPC's stand for NON PLAYER CHARACTERS. They are created from NPC Crafters. Hunters get items and exp from killing these computer enemies. They very little from from killing other members.
- Crafters - Crafters CRAFT! They use tools bought in the store area to create weapons, armor and items. They then can sell those items in their very own user shops!
- Pet Owners - These people get a pet that can fight with them and grow with them. Each species gets a type of pet. Aliens get eggs which then turn into facehuggers and then aliens. Marines get synthetic robots, and Predators get Initiate warriors to train. Pets generate CPU's that are used as fuel for clans to attack with. Pets also generate money and gain exp along with their owners.
And of course. Each profession has a sub-profession, such as offensive/defensive attackers, or NPC crafters, or specializing in pets that heal you.
Once you are set, fill out the rest of the forms and submit.
This is the main forum area. There are lots of forums to post in. Posting gives you many things such as:
- Posts
- Money
- Exp for your pets
- Resources for crafters
There are even forums just for each species. You can even buy your own forum area, or your clan can buy their own forum area. That way your clan has their own forum to post in and no one else can see it.
The same goes with the species forums. Only aliens can see in and post in the aliens forum.
Keeping active ensures a powerful life.
Since you have not registered an account yet. You do not see an inventory. However you can get an idea of the store areas here.
This is the main HUB of the game. On the left you can see the many store links available to you as well as character links on the top left. Click off of this tutorial and hover your mouse over each button to see where they go!
This is the User Shop area.
Crafters can purchase their own stores here, and then put any item up for sale. They can determine the price of an item and how many to put up for sale. They can also ban people from using their shop.
This is the area you would go to find weapons, armor, and special items such as weapon upgrades, or medical supplies.
This is the Clan area of the game.
Members can either join a clan or create their own clan. They can then enter this area to manage it.
A clan is a group of people under 1 banner. Each clan has many things they can do:
- Attack other clans using CPU's
- Store items in the clan bank
- Build clan structures to boost the clan defense and damage
Clan leaders can designate co-leaders as well. Clan leaders and co-leaders can attack other clans, and form ranks among members.
Each rank allows the member more and more access to the clan system. A rank 1 can only view clan things. A rank 5 can do just about anything with the clan.
There are even Help Files for the game.
It is a seperate system from the game running at wetpaint.com. It is user generated so you can even create an account here and add/edit to the help files. It works just like wikipedia does.
If you have any questions you can probably find the answer here. To get to the Help Files you just click on the big
link under the main navigation back on the site...
Now you can register your own account.
Click on the REGISTER link in the upper left and sign up!
