Title: What should BG&E2 have?
G.A.Pster - January 5, 2006 01:42 AM (GMT)
What changes/additions do you think BG&E2 should have?
Here are the ones I can think of for now what do you think of my ideas?
It should have Larger environments.
……..
It should have an improved combat system, the same as BG&E but with blocking, separate fast or powerful attacks as well as the old charge attack and a roll as well as the old dodge.
……….
You should be able to use your camera’s flash to temporally blind some cave or nocturnal animals.
…..
There should be more shops and items to buy or unlock like night vision and Xray camera lenses, and animal calls to attract elusive creatures you need to take a pictures of, maybe some kind of code breaker and more upgrades for your hovercraft/spaceship.
…………
I think it would be cool if you could get an upgrade so you could use the hovercraft like a submarine (I think one of you might have thought of this already) and Explore underwater in the sub and take pictures of undersea animals or you could collect lost treasure, enter caves only accessible from underwater or sunken ships (with air pockets) and then explore them as jade.
…………………..
A few more mini games (just a few).
………………….
I think it should give you the option of having a different language subtitle options, like play it in French with English subtitles, BG&E gives you the options of subtitles but only in the same language.
……………..

I think,that the only thing BG&E2 should have is less stealths and more action...I like,when I fight and exterminate quickly,without no "hide & seek" stuff...
...And game should be longer :D

I thought we already had a topic where we discussed this, I'll try to find it :)
Edit: I found the topic I meant:
If you were to remake BGEI know it isn't the same topic, but the ideas which were discussed there are definitely things I want to see in a sequel ;)

I thought it was well balanced, Jade’s not a killing machine like say Blood Rayne, I think there should be a fair amount of stealth.
Denden666Piek - January 8, 2006 10:12 PM (GMT)
Yeah, Reaper. But I say we start again. Fresh start, new ideas, maybe?
Hmmm, I just thought the options of the camera might be expanded. Like, what kind of flash do you use? Night-flash or for a large view? Several flash options should be available and affect the way you make your pictures. If you do not adjust your flash to the enviornment your in, your pistures become either too dark, too light or just unfocused and they'll not be accepted. Also, it would be cool to have the possibility to make use of a darkroom and have some mini-game where you can develop pictures for your own private collection(like family pictures and nice pictures of nature). And like G.A.Pster said, different camera lenses.
Not only larger environments, but also other locations. Michel Ancel wanted BG&E to contain several planets. BG&E2 should have several planets to visit, like the ones we read in fanfics like those of Jericho and Sev. That would be awesome.
More interaction with the environment. I really liked kicking doors open and everything, but if I'd be able to move more objects in a room or environment it would be so cool. And like discussed before in the other topic, police-chases. I want GTA-like police chases in the air, on the land, on the sea and maybe even under the sea. It doesn't have to be the police, it can also be awesome DomZ-creatures or the Alpha's. I want more chase-sequences and I want them to be spectacular.
More flying, way more flying. And flying combat too. I want to see one epic space-battle near the end too, that puts Starfox and Star Wars Rogue Squadron to shame.
More ideas will come, I'm sure. I'm not going to take a look in the old topic. I still remember some things, but I want this topic to make a fresh start. As fresh as possible, at least.
G.A.Pster - January 9, 2006 12:13 AM (GMT)
I think the flash options wouldn’t be any fun it’d just make it like a photography sim.
it would be cool if you could upload your pictures onto a PC, but if you could upload your pictures onto a PC I’d want to be able to adjust the exposure time so you could have pictures of like the stars moving.
And I’d like the day/night cycle to be slower.
Space battles would be good, and definitely other planets would be sweet.

the music should again be from christophe heral, with the LA symphonic orchestra, problably best game music ever.
Denden666Piek - January 10, 2006 12:51 PM (GMT)
I want to hear the old themes, only redone so it stays fresh. And of course new songs in the same multi-cultural style as in the original. Talking about multi-cultural, I want to see more animal-people, and they all should have some sort of culture connected with a culture from earth. I really enjoyed the Jamaican Rhinos, for example.

I thought there were too many animal people in BG&E a few less would’ve been better, I don’t think BG&E-II should have any more.
And I never really figured out what was up about the animal guys are they from other planets or what?
:blink:
Ralexand - January 11, 2006 07:30 AM (GMT)
They are hillians, the human too :P
In BG&E2 i want a Golf Minigame! And of course different lenses ( like a wide angle lens ) for the camera. Flashbulb would be great :).
The_Evil_Reaper - January 11, 2006 11:04 AM (GMT)
Like discussed in the other topic, Side quests... I'd like to some chores for the local people, or for the Rhinos :D... Anywayz the only "side"-quests you got in BGE were the Looter Chases and the caverns.... which weren't that much....
ssj4_Gogeta - January 11, 2006 01:32 PM (GMT)
It should have a story(well, the title didn't read:
what should BG&E 2 have, what BG&E doen't have?) .
and of course: horny b*tchezzzzz
Denden666Piek - January 11, 2006 02:01 PM (GMT)
I want karaoke in the Akuda Bar! :D That would be fun. Trying to sing along with the gibberish from the BG&E songs. I'd love it!
Multiplayer, with all the minigames, hovercraft races and space battles. And the Looter's Caverns have fun multiplayer possibilities. Co-op would be nice too. Just add another partner for Jade, Pey'j and Double H and then you can play with four people. The game should be made a LOT harder in that case.

I think it’s the song that plays at the akuda bar is in a real language.
not sure though.

I don't think so. It was discussed in the forums a long time ago, and I think although it had influences from certain languages(We're also talking about that Spanish sounding Hovercraft-song here), it's not a real language that is sung.

So the hovercraft race one isn’t in a real language I’m surprised, I thought it was in Spanish.

The submarine idea is very good, G A Pster. Michael Ancel has said that Beyond good and evil has a Jules Verne feel, and this would have a '20,000 leagues under the sea' feel.
I'd like to see a game (whether Beyond good and evil 2 or not) that bases a level around a theme park ride. It was partly done in Curse of Monkey Island (though in 2D) and Max Payne 2 featured a fun house, but I can't think of a 3D adventure game not including theme park creators that aren't adventures) that features a level on a MOVING theme park ride- one in which you would also move behind the scenes, under the track etc. ( Resident Evil 4 featured a mine cart ride like Indiana Jones and the temple of doom but it wasn't in a theme park.
G.A.Pster - February 23, 2006 11:16 PM (GMT)
About the underwater idea, there’s actually some BG&E concept artwork I found at the Italian BG&E page with a submarine.
linkumsand anyone that’s interested in other unavailable artwork check the Italian site! I’ve got like 4 or 5 pics I haven’t seen on the French, UK, US, Germany, or Spanish pages. :handjeklap:
Denden666Piek - February 24, 2006 12:52 AM (GMT)
I've seen quite a few pictures that indicate that Michel Ancel intended BG&E to be more epic than it was, or maybe it's an indication of what he has in store for the sequels. Great find, G.A.Pster. :welldone:
G.A.Pster - February 24, 2006 07:40 AM (GMT)
and there’s more pics than just in the concept art section.
the one above it has 2 other ones.

GUNS SEX BLOOD RAP DEATH VIOLENCE WAR UGLINESS!!
daidalos - February 24, 2006 02:15 PM (GMT)
It were perfectly fine when the game would be longer, let's say no less than 20 hours. BG&E was just too short. :(
I thought of a multiplayer version either, nothing big (maybe hovercraft races or a spacer-shooter and maybe an obstacle course - would be funny) but then again, I've never seen a ubi-game with a good netcode.

Nah, that isn't necessary.
Although I think they should add some Rap... Oh and Hiphop too. You know, a 50 Cent theme song or something, that would be so cool B)
*this remark was a deliberate intend to annoy the hell out of Ugly Phil :P
Ralexand - February 24, 2006 08:50 PM (GMT)
I want in BG&E2:
- Photon torpedoes
- Quantum torpedoes
- Transphasic torpedoes
- Phaser
- A Hillyan M*A*S*H
- The Borg
- A huge magical barrier
- etc
Alexa - February 24, 2006 08:52 PM (GMT)
Ralexand - February 24, 2006 08:58 PM (GMT)
YES!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!
And I want a MG42!
The_Evil_Reaper - February 24, 2006 09:23 PM (GMT)
And the lord said: "....No"
I want different levels of diffeculty, because it's pretty easy right now. A hard mode would be nice, especially for replaying the game(I play every game at normal, to begin with)
Denden666Piek - February 24, 2006 10:47 PM (GMT)
Well, if I got some really personal wishes in like Ralexand does, then the Hillyans would all live in ignorance in The Matrix, the DomZ are just another system of control, Hahn is really Morpheus, Jade would be Trinity except Jade's prettier and I would be Neo only I would kick Agent Smith's ass and live with Jade happily ever after.
But I won't say that I really want all that in the game, because even I admit it would be rubbish...for anyone else but me.
The_Evil_Reaper - February 24, 2006 10:49 PM (GMT)
But where did the hell did Pey'j and Double H go.... And where did Agent Smith come from? AND WHY IS MACHINE CITY NOT ON THE MAP!?!?
I'm confused :wacko:
Ralexand - February 24, 2006 10:51 PM (GMT)
If there is a M*A*S*H in BG&E2, I would be the helicotper pilot :wub:
Denden666Piek - February 24, 2006 11:30 PM (GMT)
If there's M*A*S*H in BG&E2, I would kill myself. Sorry, but M*A*S*H isn't quite worthy of an appearance in BG&E. It's funny, but not brilliant.

That's the thing, I hope we won't. :D
Haha, just kidding man. But as much as I would like to see the hovercraft Nebuchadnezzar from The Matrix in BG&E, even I have to admit that it wouldn't fit. M*A*S*H wouldn't fit in BG&E as well. It's just the things that we personally love, but others would hate it. We have to live with it. :)
Ralexand - February 24, 2006 11:42 PM (GMT)

and i would kill myself if MASH was in BG&E! and so, the cycle is complete :) :P

You want to annoy me, isn't it? ISN'T IT???? BUT MY REVENGE WILL BE TERRIBLE!!!!!
btw: 1000 Posts!!!!!11 OMG!!!!! ARGH!!!
Denden666Piek - February 24, 2006 11:49 PM (GMT)
The Matrix and M*A*S*H should stay far away from BG&E, for the good of the general community. Yeah that's right, it's for the greater good! And at least we won't have people commit suicide.
Ugly Duck - February 24, 2006 11:52 PM (GMT)
yeah, true. and lets face, it, YOU NEED ME!
...ok, i gotta know, how many of you laughed at that??? c'mon, don't hide it! :lol:
Ralexand - February 24, 2006 11:52 PM (GMT)
Okay, okay, you think Matrix is brilliant and I think M*A*S*H is brilliant. And we say, the both should not be in BG&E2. But in my fantasy (M*A*S*H of course :P) :)
