[spoiler=Units]
A unit can carry: two items, and two ranged weapons, with a combat knife. Each unit can increase their skill with any weapon they have equipped. By increasing the units weapon skill, it will take slightly more damage. The more kills a unit gets, the more experience they recieve. By gaining more experience the unit will recieve a small increase to their Maximum Health. Units die often, so you can send in more units by dropship for a price.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Fireteams]
Fireteams are a group that consists of up to 5 units. You can give them orders on the map or give them quick orders while taking control over the fireteam.[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Headquarters]
HQ is a place where your main base of operations is. It allows you to build and upgrade many things for your team. By using your Credits(money) you can recruit new marines or purchase items. Any HQ can be captured by a team when only their units are inside the HQ area. Slowly the HQ will be taken over by that team, giving other teams a chance to stop you from taking over the HQ. Whoever has no HQ's left, wins the sector.[/spoiler]

This looks quite neat. I've never seen an FPS in RMXP before. Downloading now.

[Sophist]

Jesus christ almighty this is going into the project section.

[GilgameshRO]

I fuckin' love this game. I am floored by what you have accomplished. Keep up the good work.

[DeathLock~]

As I told you before B, this game is godly among the projects. =D

At first I'm like "What....FPS/RTS in RPG Maker? you've got to be joking"...and then I saw the screenshots and I was blown away.
It's amazing what you've done!  The RTS element(s) sound sweet and very in depth. I'm familiar with a script that makes the viewpoint First Person, but the screenshots of it in use never *ever* looked this well done; the hud, everything. \
Reminds me a little bit of Starcraft and Doom.
You're the type of person with a mind-set that will eventually flip the industry on it's side, even if whatever that is isn't successful, trial and error generally *always* leads to great stuff. Kudos brah, you're amazing, to you and your project.

Also, not to be a kill joy, but you could get in a lot of trouble with some of your resources...openly admitting and all...

Only if he tries to make money off of it. Otherwise it's just plagiarism, which is only ethically wrong.

Anyways, this looks amazing. I'll have to download it soon and give it a try.

No, it's copyright infringement; taking someone's copyrighted material and using it without their permission is illegal regardless of whether he or she tries to make a profit from it. He's not claiming it as his or her own, so it's not plagiarism. And it's a little more than ethically wrong, but hey, I'm no one to speak on ethics. Most people here don't credit Big N for their Pokemon sprites, which is arguably smarter than giving credit since there is a "chance" that you made your "own", although it'd probably be ruled that you copied protected material without permission.

Ageed Rain, too tired to play games but tomorrow gonna give this a go!    And sorry Behemoth, I didn't mean to go off subject.
Have to say it again, this game still impresses me just as much as it did last ngiht.

[GilgameshRO]

Well, it's not entirely illegal, vis-à-vis fair use. However, fair use more or less only covers news, satire, and school. So that doesn't exactly apply to this. Still, worst case scenario he has to take down the game. He won't really "get in trouble" for it. His project is more or less harmless.

True, I've really only ever heard of fan remakes getting hit with C&D orders.

[Grafikal]

Plagiarism is not illegal. It is not even legal term. Only way that it is illegal is if he plagiarizes something that's been copywritten and therefore it is instead a breach of copywrite. I don't care what resources he's using as long as he's got the credits and I don't care if they're copywritten. Discussion over. Stick to the game topic please.

The game looks pretty amazing. 3D isn't extremely new to XP but definitely never used. Good luck on finishing everything up. I'm looking forward to the complete game.

Truddles. If you can get an up and running direct connect multiplayer mode, that would be beyond amazing.
