    Drakwolf:

    I think the biggest problem will be getting someone on the same time you are. If they need help for something they probally will need it asap. Like said in an above post you should have one of the search functions time based on when people are most likley online.

    Keep this thread undated as you continue work on this and when I get Xbox live I'll sign up, it sounds pretty cool.

     

    One of the ideas I did think of was, if players can see other non-friends list players, as orbs, we'll allocate a Headquarters or Hang Out or something, where players can idle while looking for a job.

    For example if it was a pub you could go in and drink and stuff and if someone needed a hand they'd go to that pub and ask for an on the spot contract.

    CoolBaboon:
    This sounds like an awesome idea.

    Im in: GT CoolBaboonz

    Could RichBlake and Kit split the website into two factions: one for G o o d [Good] mercs and the other for E v i l [Evil] mercs. The two different sections could have their own theme, either E v i l [Evil] or G o o d [Good]. The E v i l [Evil] having dark, reddy colours and the G o o d [Good] department having light colours.

    As Richs name Blackthorn lends itself nicely to the E v i l [Evil] alignment, you could manage that section. And maybe Kit could develop the section for G o o d [Good] mercs and a come up with a G o o d [Good] name.

    This would also help clients to find a mercenary who is right for them.

    Just an idea...    Smily [:)]

    Blackthorn is a parody of Blackwater, and even though the name sounds slightly E v i l [Evil] that's because it is slightly E v i l [Evil]. The idea that you place gold above morality isn't a G o o d [Good] idea necessarily Stick out tongue [:P]

    The name itself isn't set in stone though, my only rule is that the name MUST be fitting for the company and Fable 2.

    As for different sections that a no. If players like hiring G o o d [Good] players then G o o d [Good] players will be at the top of the list. If they prefer E v i l [Evil] ones then they will be at the top, same for neutral. There will be a search function hopefully though so if you want E v i l [Evil] and most people don't you can still find someone E v i l [Evil].



    I wasn't suggesting that gold should be placed above morality... in fact I'm not even sure I understand what you mean by that.

    I think you may have got the wrong idea when I said "themes", this was simply suggesting colour schemes for the two different sections of the site.

    Sorry if you missinterpretated (spl?) my post, I'm not very G o o d [Good] at describing my ideas. Tongue Tied [:S]

    What about Whitestem or Whitethorn?

    Black isn't an inherently E v i l [Evil] colour you know, plenty of "G o o d [Good]" people where black (vicars and nuns for example?).

    The company is called Blackthorn, no sub divisions Stick out tongue [:P]

    Re: Getting in there first: Blackthorn Ltd.

    We could advertise (somewhere). That way not only the people active on the forums would know about this. We could ask lionhead to help also, being as this will help the gamers around the world.

    Check one of my posts back on page 2. Hopefully that'd work.

    Some kind of test/tryout/recruitment process.

    Also, would just like to re-state that this is in very early development and you guys probably won't hear from us for awhile, but rest assured you will! Also, you can add an account, GT is Blackthorn LTD It'll keep you up to date with what's going on with the details and whatnot, though I have to ask you not to send it messages asking... just be patient and you'll get a message from someone at somepoint regarding future plans. I just ask that you all sit tight and be patient. We're working stuff out Crazy [:crazy:]

    Re: Getting in there first: Blackthorn Ltd.

    A G o o d [Good] way of getting the best person for the job is to write a review after the person does the job. Only members of the site can get help from the club and you'll know there G o o d [Good] because of there reviews.

    What will come out first Fable or spore??
