It's TIME! – Project 1B

[Different]

Background Video + Filters

This is the big moment, you've all been waiting for! I promise you, this has never been done before in Pr2 history! In this video, you'll find really cool background ideas, filters, and more.

Believe me, you don't want to skip over any of this, or the reading because you won't understand what's going on.

Now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's talk about some more really cool ideas. You see, I've been thinking about not only proposing new background changes in Pr2, but ways you can obtain them.

You and I both know that with every flash game, pc game, gaming console, etc, has some sort of difficulty attached to them. Well, I thought it'd be a great idea to have you race against AI Bots, to unlock really cool backgrounds for your main lobby.

With this idea, when you click on the options tab in the main menu and select the "change background" option, this is what you can expect to see:

Spoiler

All the backgrounds are locked (including the filter option) because you need to beat a few AI Bots on a certain difficulty level, to unlock these options.

My next idea is giving you the option to load your own custom background, instead of the recommended backgrounds that you see before you. Same rules apply as above, except it would pull up a window allowing you to select a background from your computer files.

Then, there's the filter idea that allows you to apply a color filter to either your custom backgrounds or the unlocked backgrounds. However, you still need to beat a few AI Bots (as described above) to unlock any of these options.

Note: Click on the question mark in the top right-hand corner to view the filter options (if they're unlocked).

Spoiler

Just to clarify: regardless of whether you're selecting your desired background or loading it, you would select your background first, before you pick change the background filter; picking a background automatically switches backgrounds.

Then, once you've selected your background, you can head over to the filter section and start playing around with the background colors.

Here are the options that you would see, to make the magic happen.

Notice how there's an option to add music to the game as well. I know this idea has been pitched before, but I just thought it'd be a great idea to bring it up again in this thread. Really, you should be able to add your own music to the game, just like the background ideas.

AI BOTS

This is what you can expect to see, when you want to know how to challenge AI BOTS:

Now, obviously there's a lot more info that goes into this working mechanic, which will be explained in Project 1C because it's still a working progress. But for now, this is a rough draft explanation of what you can expect in the next project.

AI Personalties

Aggressive, Assassin, Clever, Competitive, Coward, Hasty, Treacherous, and Unpredictable.

AI Difficulty

Spoiler

Noob: The easiest difficulty in this challenge. AI BOTS will take it easy on you and may not bring out aggressive tactics to stop you from winning. It's like putting on training wheels during your first race. This is for players who have ZERO experience. This is also where the Coward personality can take place, here. AI players move pretty slow in this difficulty!

Normal: AI BOTS may step it up just a little bit, by 25% on their personality stats and use some defensive tactics to stop you from outracing them. Their personality stats won't be increased to a high percentage just yet, so you still have nothing to worry about. Though they may start to trip you up a little bit.

Medium: Brace yourself for some competition, as the AI BOTS will start to become more competitive and take things seriously, to beat you in anything. Their personality stats are increased by 50%, which means that it becomes a little more difficult to beat them, this time. They may start to do things like setting traps for you, attacking you more, and moving a little faster. You'll see Aggressive, Competitive, and Clever personalities, here.

HARD: If you think you're really good at any level mode in Pr2, then by all means, face the AI BOTS in HARD mode. This mode isn't designed for the impatient or the inexperienced. This mode is designed for players who know how to handle stats, glitches, and tricks in the game.

AI BOTS will start to bring out the Assassin personality, targeting you first. So, be very careful with this one because they don't like to play fair! They will begin to look for, or even discover glitches to beat you to the finish line, first; this can make your life pretty difficult! There's a 75% increase on their personality stats, and you may get the Treacherous and Unpredictable personalties... yikes!

LEGEND: If you're one of the GOATS, then have a strike at this mode... I dare you! These guys don't play fair, period! Oh, and they're far more intelligent than before. It is completely unknown as to what personality they will bring out, this time... and they're personality stats are increased by 99%; damn! Please don't play this mode if you're somebody who gets frustrated, easily.

Keep a look out for the Clever guy in this one because he's highly capable of finding glitches and shortcuts to the ugly finish! Also, more than likely the AI BOTS may target you more than themselves, so good luck!

If you like all these ideas, help spread the word and make them a reality because I promise you you won't see anything else even remotely close to these ideas, pitched on JV.

Important Note: Any objections you may have, I respect that and will be taken into consideration. But before you state your objections, ask yourself this question: Will I ever see any of these cool features in this game? With all of your support, all this can become a reality; think about it.
