Spar Ghost!

Hey I came up with a great idea, how about we make a spar ghost of ourselves sparring, maybe a separate program that records our sparring techniques and after 100 spars it take everything you did and randomizes each spar way and mix and matches them so this way you can see how you have improved and have the ability to practice until you think you are good enough to spar with the better players.


(Remember these ideas are just ideas and are not meant to offend anyone, if it is a bad idea, tell me so I don't post ideas like this again)

and you can remake your ghost when you get better

also we could make it so you can give your ghost to your friends and so they can practice on you it could jumble this game with some spice :o

Reminds me of Mario Kart

It reminded me of Mario Kart too lol

It also remind me of Mario Kart lol lmfao

After Ace mentions mario kart, everyone mentions it. Hm.
Anyway, I feel like spar ghost would be a little too "advanced" for a game like era.

Some devs here have the talent to do this and I hope this could be implemented, it sounds like a great idea for new sparrers or people looking to improve their technique.

I feel like your right Jazzy to some point but the programming would not be too difficult and is not out of reach for Era.
Now, since Era has the capabilities of selling dolls of characters, and you can connect your xbox remote to Era to play, I do believe Era would have no trouble adding a spar ghost to Era.

Yeah, it seems like a nice challenge and a great way to show that Era is better than the others.

I don't know...

I like this idea :P

But what is Mario Kart?

Atm, there's bigger projects to where the scripters need to be focused on, They're not working on anything that's big like a spar ghost after they release the projects that they're currently working on

This project doesn't have to be instantly implanted as long as it being a good idea, the idea can wait a year or more just something that should end up being implemented.
What projects are your referring to though Ace?

Midway reading the original post had a Mario Kart flashback lol.

Isn't this on PC?:confused:

Wow nice idea! I totally want to see this in game and practice with my pro ghost xd

or you can just spar a friend and get on the spot advice and cc, that is what the practice spar is primarily for after all.

I love your idea dude but 1 problem... ita easier said than done

It's not the same experience. Whoever you friend may be will always have less or more experience in skill.

people can go easy on purpose you know.

Racing games have ghosts, action games have AI.

On the other hand, It would be really cool if there was a quest in the future or something that had a boss with actual movement and shooting patterns that we'd have to figure out how to react. It could be from a realistic-iEra level or just go all out bullet hell levels of spray patterns. Then to make the quest hard enough, actually remove healing and have a limited number of lives.

So it'd be something like a ghost but it's not made from player movement, but pre-programmed instead.

Can they go easy enough to make it close enough to a tie?

I think this idea is out of the question, this would just create more lag and the developer that would be able to do this got fired for "inappropriate symbols and racism".

How is it inappropriate : o

This idea was just a thought lol maybe Era could make a small program and turn it into an app so it wouldn't have lag. Not too hard to condense a program into an app. I'm not sure. Sparring against a friend is not the same as a ghost, the point of ghost spar is to better yourself in ways only you could, its a way to beat yourself over and over and over. The benefits are endless I have many other ideas regarding this palette of information but this is just one.

Vacci's idea is ok but the problem with that is that its basically the exact same as sparring another person.

sorry, late reading this haven't been on forums had to focus on grades, thanks red ranger means lots>=o
Once countryside is done this idea is definitely coming into play, it must for my sake>=]

btw can someone move this thread to future improvements so it isn't ignored as much, nobody looks here *~*

Mario Kart haha.

isnt this 'NPC' since its era? o.o

non playing computer? NA I think you mean pc for playing computer lol logic

The AI would take a long time for devs to make X.X
Good idea though!

Lol.

I like this idea as well but im just saying (correct me if im wrong) but it seems like they would have to run a very advanced program for the game to record our techniques. and the techniques may not be consistent because just a month ago, I was wall hugging and now I spar full blown orthodox style. Plus, it probably would DESTROY the crappy hardware era runs on....no offense, we need a serious upgrade
