Pathways into Darkness 2?... community game projects?

I found a link to this gme being made called Pathways into Darkness 2. It is supposed to be a "real game" but what is weird is Bungie still ons the IP to Pathways into Darkness. What is strange about this is it seems to be made by fans. I am curious, is Bungie okay with people making products/games using their names/copyrights or do people have to write and get consent to make a game? [url=http://recon-2.weebly.com/community.html] Link to dev page[/url] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehE6KU0My-M] Their trailer[/url] I do not know if they are charging for the game. I do think it is super cool that people are expanding on games. (I wasn;t sure if I should put this in the games forum,the point of this thread was more towards using Bungie copyrighted content to make things). [Edited on 03.13.2012 7:11 PM PDT]

  • I'm using gamemaker. I started the project from scratch, and this is as far as we got. I would like some music and props. I now have everything I need to complete the game. I am still in school, but I work on it everyday and on weekends. I would like your support, I'd lik everyones support because now its a community involvement. If someone could, id lik for them to make a multiplayer version. Ill give you the sprites used in the game. If u collaborate, you'll receive credit in producing the game.

  • Some criticism. The reason you probably got a lot of dislikes is because the game looks old. So far to me I see a modded version of the original. I give you props for adding in music and new weapons and such but most people consider a sequel released to be new and too par with today's graphics. Essentially it appears you took a 19 year old game re-skinned the levels and HUD, and added different dialog. I define that as a mod as have enjoyed similar mods for games like the Elder Scrolls series. Now taking into consideration that you have very limited resources, experience, and time (I would assume you still are in school), I have to say not bad at all. Its a great contribution to the community and I wish you well with the rest of the project. Note: I'm giving some constructive criticism. I think it is freaking awesome what you guess are attempting and you have my full support in making it happen. [Edited on 03.25.2012 1:54 PM PDT]

It's too evil to discuss! Anyway, nice! Do you guys need some assistance? Edited- As for the suggestion - can community like us make ourselves some community made maps for the other to play? Think of this as a file share map variant on Halo 3, but instead of using the same map over and over again. [Edited on 03.25.2012 1:36 PM PDT]

  • Id love a multiplayer mode, but I haven't figured out a way to program a multiplayer mode. There will be a zombies mode

  • Not sure if you already mentioned it but will there be a multiplayer gamemode? If so then how will it operate? Will there be public servers or will we have to host our own? Of course all of these questions are assuming there will be a multiplayer so if there wont be one then please disregard them all.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] baile045 Does anyone know how to talk to Bungie personally because I contacted the webmaster and it just sent a automated message [/quote]I think the best way for you to contact Bungie at this point is through [url=http://www.bungie.net/account/profile.aspx?uid=127592&page=PostMsg]DeeJ[/url]. While it may be unconventional, he [i]is[/is] pretty interested in anything the Community puts together. I would send him a PM with links to your videos and your dev page. Good luck!

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] baile045 You know what, I'll finish the game, criticism or not. But in my opinion, its kick-ass, and when you play it, you'll think again[/quote] Not to sound harsh, but you've suddenly taken up this defensive stance to posts that have not even criticized or mentioned the game, or your work on it. I understand the internet is unforgiving but you need to relax a little. EDIT: Reading again, it seems you're taking the criticisms of gamemaker as criticisms of your game. Still, relax a little.

  • Im pretty sure that nobody said your game would suck nor did they flame you for making a non-canonical game.

  • Pretty cool, good for them. They look pretty young though.. could do with a spell check too, a bit like the OP. Anyway, hope they do well.
