Game Intro: Methanoids

[pbhuh]

Yet another faction that could be very fun to play.

The Methanoids are a prosperios race with many colonies, but a new threat has a risen. A faction of the Mantis Race, lead by Queen Dydrana, has claimed several planets and star systems. But not all methanoids are united, several politics want to see if they can go with diplomatics instead of war. Will the methanoids be able to overcome their political problems and raise as one against the Mantis?

Tau Ceti

You start in Tau Ceti, home system of the methanoids.

Planets:

Tau Ceti 1
Tau Ceti 2
Tau Ceti 3
Asteroid Field
Stargate
Tau Ceti 4

You start on Tau Ceti 3, it's a green planet with many plants also seen on Gazica. Here are some "Political Enemies" that are destroying the plants, and there are also mantis drones etc. The enemy ranks varies from rank 2 - 6

Then you go to Tau Ceti 4. Tau Ceti 4 is a industrial, but also technological planet. You will see a lot of cool stuff. The biggest enemy you will encounter here are the Political Enemies. They are trying to attack your faction headquater, there are almost no mantis. The Enemy ranks varies from rank 7-12.

After you solve problems on Tau Ceti 4, you go to Tau Ceti 1. Tau Ceti 1 is a strange planet with strange ruines, the mantis seem to have interest in this. This will be a real battleground planet, you will see many NPC's that will help you, but also once again Political enemies. The Mantis and Political enemies will work together at the end, then you will have to kill their leader, he drops a chip to draconis, but first you have to help your people. Enemy ranks varies from rank 13-18

Draconis

When you reach Draconis, you will be in a total differant time, the methanoids have just establised a colony on valkion and your Methanoid mothership is defending it against Mantis Hive. This will be Draconis Fase 1, and it's totally differant. Woe fields doesnt excist because the methanoid mothership isn't destroyed. This will be the hangar, but also a planet.

Planets:

Valkion
- Methanoid Mothership
Gazica
Stargate
???

Methanoid Mothership will be the first planet, it is a giant space battle between mantis hive and Methanoid Mothership. You will be flying in space between debris from other small ships. You will have to fight here. After you have prooven your loyalty you will go to Valkion. Enemy ranks varies from rank 20 - 24.

Valkion will not look destroyed, but will be a mining planet with Mantis Technology. The methanoids managed to take Valkion and are now mining here. But their are still mantis that are fighting against you. You will win from the mantis, but the mantis won't give up, they destroy valkion... Enemy ranks varies from 25-29, after destruction it will be a CQ.

Then you and your people will colonize Gazica. You will have to deliver stuff and escort a lot. When Gazica is build up you will see many buildings, they plant many plants like on gazica of now. But once again the mantis attack, and not only draconis. They attack Tau Ceti and destroy many plants that gave the Methanoids their brain. Everything is lost, or is it? Enemy ranks varies from rank 30-34

<<<This could be a choise>>>

Or you play the role of Mehoth and try to find a way to get the methanoids smart again, until the humans come.

Or you play the role of Morbod and go to the sol system and play your way their, until you have to flee because you have liberated vicius.

<<<Wapens>>>

All methanoids use zero point, atleast i think they should, but because it's already taken, i want to take a less expensive version of zero point, Sub-Zero Point.

You start with a rank 1 basic.

Then on rank 8 you will already be able to choose what type of ship you want.

You will be able to get all types of ships. But only the 1-6 weapons.

On Rank 16 you will be able to buy another ship,then only the 1-7 weapons.

On Rank 25 you will get your last ship, this one has 1-8 weapons.

 

[ridoi]

pbhuh, first rethink about ranks of the thing, why do u all was give them low ranks and not high? what's wrong with maybe r 120 or something like that.

this game intro is playable for noobs, this 2 systems are basicly the first three.

But i do agree that maybe they should be called Meth Rank, instead of normal rank, when the humans come you will be intergrated in Normal rank as a Rank 68.

And the humans will not be able to play this if they dont remake an accaunt.

you do not make the 9th system a noob system, simple.

 

[pbhuh]

the 9th? you mean the 8th, btw, i don't make it a noob system, i make it a Fase System.

Fase 1 is noob, Fase 2 is dangerous, maybe the same buildings as in Fase 1 but totally destroyed.

As i told in the suggestion, its a differant time,

as methanoid when you finished tau ceti, you come to draconis in a time where the methanoids were winning. But later on they got attacked, and you took the role of morbod/mehoth.

still, do not make the big system, so everyone can get to ^^

 

[pbhuh]

i came up with this idea to Recycle systems, where they have more uses then only for one storyline, like by my imperial intro where you re use mizar and sol.

but still, do not come with these stupid idea's about ranks that are so small

 

[pbhuh]

ranks are so small? what do you want? A noob that is in the beginning already rank 80?!

 

[selkath]

Methanoid Mothership will be the first planet, it is a giant space battle between mantis hive and Methanoid Mothership. You will be flying in space between debris from other small ships. You will have to fight here. After you have prooven your loyalty you will go to Valkion. Enemy ranks varies from rank 20 - 24.

Me likey this, pirate galaxy needs more space levels.

 

[ridoi]

ranks are so small? what do you want? A noob that is in the beginning already rank 80?!

why do u all was talk and start with low ranks, example I am draconis pilot and I am r 75 the ships would then be r 80 or 85 and not 12, 30 etc.

 

[pbhuh]

in the beginning of the game you can choose to play a methanoid, a imperial a colonial or a smuggler,

if you choose methanoid you start in Tau Ceti Fase 1, you have a differant rank then others and you will have another storyline.

But when you follow the human storyline you will never pass Tau Ceti Fase 1 and will go to Tau Ceti Fase 2, thats totally destroyed, you will get much more advanced ships then the beginner tau ceti ships.

u know that it was the old game version forget about your mad ideas xD

 

[pbhuh]

I have remade it, and listened to ridoi's advice.

The Methanoids originate from Tau Ceti 4, but the Methanoids couldn't stay long one race, they seperated, some factions left to other colonies, others stayed in Tau Ceti, but some are fighting about grounds. And thats not everything, An aggresive alien race called the Mantis have attacked the Methanoids. They are claiming several planets and systems. If the methanoids won't reunite, then this war is already lost...


When you start as a Methanoid, you start differantly, you will have another rank, Methanoid Rank, the color of the rank has a differant color. If possible, then maybe the gold should be changed to silver.

If this comes then i would like that SS takes my image, or takes the colors.

Starting Zone Tau Ceti (Fase 1)

Tau Ceti is the first system where new methanoid pilots start. It covers basicly Vega and a little part of Antares.

But to make clear, there is a Fase 2, hardcore Tau Ceti.

Planets:

Tau Ceti 1 - (M-Rank 13-18)
Tau Ceti 2 (CQ)
Tau Ceti 3 - (2-6)
Asteroid Field (CQ)
Stargate
Tau Ceti 4 (7-12)

You start on Tau Ceti 3, it's a green planet with many plants also seen on Gazica. Here are some "Political Enemies" that are destroying the plants, and there are also mantis drones etc. The enemy ranks varies from rank 2 - 6

Then you go to Tau Ceti 4. Tau Ceti 4 is a industrial, but also technological planet. You will see a lot of cool stuff. The biggest enemy you will encounter here are the Political Enemies. They are trying to attack your faction headquater, there are almost no mantis. The Enemy ranks varies from rank 7-12.

After you solve problems on Tau Ceti 4, you go to Tau Ceti 1. Tau Ceti 1 is a strange planet with strange ruines, the mantis seem to have interest in this. This will be a real battleground planet, you will see many NPC's that will help you, but also once again Political enemies. The Mantis and Political enemies will work together at the end, then you will have to kill their leader, he drops a chip to draconis, but first you have to help your people. Enemy ranks varies from rank 13-18

Draconis (Fase 1)

Draconis (F1) is the second system for methanoids, it basicly covers The Rest of Antares and Gemini and makes a little begin of Mizar.

When you reach Draconis as a methanoid it will be Fase 1, it will be a colony of another faction of the methanoids and they are in war with the Mantis. You start on the Methanoid Mothership.

What is changed with Human Draconis (Fase 3)? Or Fase 2 Draconis? Woe Fields does not exist. Methanoid Mothership surves as a Hangar and Valkion and Gazica will look differant. Mantis Hive will be orbitting Methanoid Mothership.

Planets:

Valkion (F1 25-30) - (F2 CQ)
- Methanoid Mothership or Space Battle (20-25)
Gazica (31-36)
Stargate
??? (CQ)

Methanoid Mothership or Space Battle will be a giant space battle between Mantis hive and Methanoid Mothership. If you go hangar you fly to Methanoid Mothership. This will be the first planet and it will also have a nice storyline how you will sabotage mantis hive. Enemy ranks varies from rank 20 - 25.

Valkion will be a Methanoid Mining Planet, it is not destroyed yet and has many small villages like on Gazica. The Methanoids are having trouble fighting of the mantis in the villages and in one big city in the up-right corner of the map. After you have victory here, the mantis blow up Valkion. Before destruction mantis ranks will varies from 25-30. After destruction it will be a Conquest.

Then you and your people will colonize Gazica. You will have to deliver stuff and escort a lot. When Gazica is build up you will see many buildings, they plant many plants like on gazica of now. But once again the mantis attack, and not only draconis. They attack Tau Ceti and destroy many plants that gave the Methanoids their brain. You loose contact with Tau Ceti that is now turned in Fase 2. Enemy ranks varies from rank 31-36

Draconis (Fase 2)

Instead of having a choise, I changed it to having a bigger storyline with basicly another system. This System covers the rest of mizar and a part of sol.

Draconis Fase 2 is a methanoid fase after the mantis destroy a lot of things, this part includes how the methanoids get stupid and how the mantis use the beam on gazica. You try to help your people, but then you relieze that the answer is in Sol, you kill a mantis and get his chip to Sol.

Draconis Fase 2 will have:

Planets:

Valkion (CQ)
Gazica (37-42)
Mantis Hive (42-47)
Woe Fields (Hangar)
Stargate
??? (CQ)

Meth Sol

Methanoid Sol will be your journey as Morbod, you will have to trade with the Imperials and you try to find here a way to make your people smart again. Methanoid Sol covers Sol. At the end you free Vicius and flee to Draconis, but things have changed.

Draconis (Fase 3)

The final Fase, this is the fase where humans will come draconis in. But only your storyline will be differant.

<<<Weapons>>>

All methanoids use zero point, atleast i think they should, but because it's already taken, i want to take a less expensive version of zero point, Sub-Zero Point.

[selkath]

As a Meth, can you go to the other systems like Gemini?
