Boss Spawn by dailydose

[dailydose]

Hello!! I was thinking about ideas for the game since im trying to meet Sora and stuff, and this came to my mind. You guys should make a boss that spawns every once in a while with lets say 30k mass and if somebody kills it in less than 5 minutes they get 5k coins. I hope you like my idea!!

I really like this idea!

Maybe give the boss special abilities, so whereas normally a virus ramming it would cause it to split, the boss simply eats the virus instead, and several seconds later belches out fire back the way the virus came. If that fire touches any player cell, it loses 10 to 20% of it's mass that is 'burned away'.

Also allow it to periodically use it's fire weapon against player cells that are within it's range.

And allow the boss to move 20% faster than a normal cell.

Maybe announce to the server who gets the kill for the boss too, and award a handsome amount of xp.

Nice ideas @dailydose and @Squirrel ! I think some variation of the idea would work well in Infection mode. Already have planned an idea to let a random zombie player become the "Zombie boss" in infection mode. That player then has enhanced abilities than the other zombies. For example faster default movement speed, larger appearance, shoots larger/more shots.

thats quite a good idea actually!
right now humans win like every match, maybe slow down the ability of mulitple shoot so it gets harder for humans to kill the infected.

I cant wait to see this! :0
Agma.io is getting little bit fun but the only thing is that I lag

another idea: face mask gives small advantage

LOL!  This could be the start of a wearables revolution -- wearables that perhaps give innate abilities (and perhaps drawbacks too), that change gameplay!

The only real hurdle I could see to that is that currently, you can play with 'wearable off', that is you don't see what anyone is wearing, and if suddenly the wearables can affect gameplay with bonuses or handicaps, then it becomes more important to know when a foe has them on.

That seems fun

Just remember that ideas are easy to come up with, but not always so easy to implement!

In this case, how do we show the effect of wearables on gameplay to a player who has it set to not display wearables?!

I can tell ya this -- until this question is answered, I don't think the idea is even possible to implement, even if it's nice!

So put your thinking cap on!

I was thinking that you could substitute the wearable for highlighting a relevant part of the outline instead? For example, the Wizard's Hat may make the cell appear somewhere that it isn't (keep things the same, for the sake of simplicity, but give a 5% chance that shooting at the cell misses?)... and to make sure everyone knows he's wearing a hat that changes things, just boldly highlight the top of each cell's arc, where the hat would be. Wearables within the face would appear as a highlighted dot in the middle of the face, and a fully encompassing wearable (ie: the barbed wire) is a thinly dotted line just around the cell.

Yep its pretty hard beacuse I dont even know single thing about it. It will look cool though but sora will have to work hard on it..that will take like 1 month or more but after that agma.io will look awesome
