Raathas Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 hey guys, it's come to my attention, that there is ALOT of unused underwater space in Oblivion, and i recently purchased Bioshock 1&2, and LOVED THEM.I thought it would be a good Idea to combine the issues of unused space, and the idea of an underwater utopia. Making Atlantis would also be a great idea, placed directly underneath cyrodiil. Pointers:Splicers don't have to be created - they could be substituted for animals, or thugs or something along them lines.Big Daddies could just be ogres or something.Rapture should stay authentic and should still be bright with lights - however an adaptation of oblivion combined with rapture would probably look really nice aesthetically. THERE WILL BE NO GUNS - but weapons could be specifically made, like a harpoon or wrench of some sort.Spells that are similar to Bioshock's could be created - for example insect swarm, telekineses (I know that oblivion has some spells similar to what bioshock already has).The animation of how you cast could be similar too. Other Idea: You could make the Bioshock Mod POST-destruction, meaning, Have it bursting with life and people before the war/splicers took over. Either way, you could go for the new landscape style or the creepy deserted and haunted place. Atlantis Idea:Obviously, there are no real pictures of atlantis, so the scenario will have to be created from imagination. When i write stories and such, I tend to look at sci-fi landscapes on deviant art. The atlantis idea can be however you wish to make it! Also, if you remember back to your sega dreamcast days, Do you remember "skies of Arcadia" ? You could make the complete opposite to underwater, and make a full landscape above the clouds and the only way to get there is on a Zepplin that runs through Bravil once every 3 days. God knows, ive just had a massive epiphany, and thought I'd share ideas. I would make it myself, but im an utter delinquent when it comes to programming et cetera... Anyway, I'll post some links below incase you have no idea what Bioshock looks like, and I hope you designers and editors can find away to incorporate these ideas into oblivion. http://www.wired.com/images/article/wide/2007/08/pl_games_w.jpghttp://martianchronicles.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/bioshock-rapture-image-bioshock-523402_1024_551.jpghttp://img408.imageshack.us/i/screencaplx7.png/http://firsthour.net/screenshots/bioshock/bioshock-no-gods-or-kings-only-man.jpghttp://www.nostalgiaforinfinity.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/shock01.jpghttp://guide2games.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/bioshock-2.jpg Hope this gets concidered guys, ill be posting a poll on Skies of Arcadia, Atlantis or Bioshock Mod.Or its down to whatever the hell you guys want to create! Thanks, Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slawter500 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I do like the rapture/oblivion combo idea. Problem is, this is quite a bit of work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genzel Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I would picture an Oblivion Atlantis as a sort of underwater Ayleid ruin. Almost the entire city could be underwater interiors, but lit up and not clouded up to increase visibility. Maybe a new helmet that allows water breathing.

Raathas Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Thanks for the replies guys,And yeah, either which way - both would fit in nicely with the oblivion style.And as for the helmet, we could just create some all in one diving suite that we can equip. You know the OLD fashioned ones with the fishbowl as the head piece?! :PThe alyied ruin would be nice, ive got beautiful imagery for walls that are lined with glowing blue runes - very similar to the style of the The Lost Spires. If this project was going to be made - it would have to be made to perfection and if so, we would need a good team - I would be VERY happy to set up a skype conference call of some description and have some sort of meeting about aesthetics, ideas, things to include, talk about production times, job rolls et cetera.Im quite happy to participate in this project - and if this project succeeds, then we can focus on adding further add-ons to the oblivion landscape! Im quite enthusiastic about this, so I would like to see it get past the production stage, and on the #1 endorsed file! We could try include Qarl and many of the other oblivion landscape artists to team up and make a stunningly, hi-defenition, landscape for us all to enjoy.This also poses opportunity to an alternative storyline, with additional races, quests and weaponary. Thanks for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raathas Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 Hey guys, I found this on TESNEXUS. Its a similar concept, however I have Higher hopes for the final product. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11717 We could possibly team up with the creator and use his as a base/template? I would like to see this, as i stated above..so c'mon guys! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raathas Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 *Sorry for spamming the replies* I don't own the shivering island expansion, nor the knights of the nine, and this mod that i posted above uses Shivering isle as the location for this "Aqua City". I just imagine it as a portal, or swim to a specific location UNDERNEATH oblivion standard map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
