The Extremis Project.

[Zerotimex]

Hello everyone Zero here, you may have seen a while back a project going around called Extremis but it never got put into major work. I'm here to kick it up and get it going this time, I have gotten permission from Proxes the creator of it to use his concept and build upon it, since I'm the one he handed over his projects and work to. After some time of thinking and going over I decided to get this in the making one of the main reasons why I want to get this in to action is as a player I feel private servers need a brighter direction to go to. Most servers now for example 255 servers just use the old infinity gaming release, most pvp realms now are instant 80 with a certain set and work your way up to s8. There are some nice servers out there I just feel its lacking and I want to change that. Warning lots of text below, you can scroll down till where it says how exactly it will work if you don't want to read the lore.

The Lore

Long long ago, there was a beast so powerful it could only be defeated by the legendary gods themselves thor, thanos, vulcun and galactius. These four gods sensing the great power of the beast and after sitting by watching the destruction caused by the beast went to take the fight to the beast. They confronted the ancient and beast and engaged in battle, it was a long exhausting fight between them. The beast was so powerful the gods themselves were having trouble and had to rely on using trinity. Trinity was considered to be nearly impossible to be done, but the gods did it at the cost of sacrificing their own lives to perform trinity. Successfully executing trinity, the beast appeared to be frozen in place but it actually was suspended animation. The gods which assumed to be dead were laying there with the smallest life possible in them, with all the power they could draw from themselves they blocked off the temple opening with a unbreakable wall which so happens to be a wall made from the gods themselves. The gods in order for them to survive they made themselves into this wall which was actually also a suspended animation until they where ready to wake up and be fully recovered.

500 years later

A temple was discovered by a gnome scientist, this gnome formed a party of various skilled scientist, engineers, miners, magicians, shamans and warriors. With the use of modern technology they where able to break the wall blocking the temple entrance. After successfully entering the temple the group went in and explored the temple and were amazed at the architecture of it, and all the amazing artifacts. As they proceeded further and further they finally reached the top of the temple and noticed a big figure frozen in place. The shamans decided to strike this figure with a powerful lighting bolt, but what happens next is something they did not expect. They had brought the ancient beast out of suspended animation and then the beast once rose again. The beast analyzed the party and immediately annihilated them except for 1 once. The beast was able to sense the most intelligent being from the group which was the leader gnome scientist. The gnome made a pact with the beast in order for him to keep his life, and from their became the beast's assistant. Performing various experiments on the beast giving him new powers and abilities so he could once again resume its goal for total world domination.

250 years later

After the beast felt it was ready to leave his temple with having the right power and abilities to conquer the world at ease, it went out into the world demolishing areas and causing mayhem everywhere it went. The beast was confronted by a group of fighters, the fighters weakened the beast almost near killing him ;the beast uses one his new abilities and summons two powerful demons. In order to save themselves the fighters began to fight the demons not knowing the beast was using them as a diversion. Once the demons where defeated the beast was no where to be found, the beast fled back to his temple. The beast furious by this defeat and confronted his assistant and demanded him to bring him 4 of the most powerful demons out there and for the scientist to use this spell on them. The spell turned the demons into servants of the beast but not just that, the scientist performed various experiments on them similar to the beast in order to give them even more power and become the beast's defenders. The four demons where spread out, to do the beast work in conquering the world.

250 years later

Now you as the player must start your journey and stop the 4 demons in there tracks, and defeat them before they spread to different areas then the ones they are conquering already. Not only must you defeat them you must find out information on what is going on, where is the beast hiding and what he is up to. But you are not alone, the four gods thor, thanos, vulcan and galactus finally awoken from there suspended animation. Being there old age and feeling they are no longer the strongest being they once were are here to aid you the player in destroying the masters and defeating the ancient beast.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now how exactly it will work

You will start off at level 80 and immediately purchase free custom starter gear. You will be greeted by the four old age gods themselves and they will start you off with a chain quest leading to the first zone being taken over by one the beast demon masters. Each zone will be different, and I will or at least try to make the quest different from zone to zone and not having the same quest just different zone, I want it to be unique and engaging. After completing the quest from one zone you then do one final quest for the zone which is to confront the demon of that area either just there or via a dungeon. (All is still be decided since it is a quest line and once players arrive there won't be much people to group with to complete it.) In the dungeon or quest you get upgrades to your old gear. Each zone will be harder and tougher then the last, and by the final zone you'll unlock a instance where you get the proper gear to start the quest to get into the temple and stop the beast. After defeating the beast you are free to re-raid the instance to get all the custom items you need from there. Once obtaining the best gear you can possibly obtain, you can just chill around, pvp and enjoy yourselves until are next content is released.

You maybe thinking so after you beat the story line there's nothing to do but pvp like any other server, you see the thing is I will be doing my best to make it different and unique. I will possibly be doing custom battleground and arenas. There will be custom php zones with pvp orientated quest and obtainable gear. What I will try to be implementing is a unique kill streak system, now I don't mean unique as in as every other server when all they have is a killstreak system that announces a streak your on and your name, I mean something much more than that. I don't want to go into much detail now but trust me if it comes out as planned it will fit the word unique. Upon starting I may allow a item that will allow you to get to the pvp area so lets say when your on and there are plenty of players and you want to pvp you can or if there isn't so many players on you can use the stone to teleport you back to the PvE area where you left off. Doing this allows you to make your own decision and not be enforced to do what you may not what.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Information:

Plenty of custom items
Custom quest and lore
Custom instances
Custom bg's and arenas(possibly)
possibly custom areas or re done areas, what this means is areas that where remade or deleting creatures from the zone and using custom game objects etc..
Unique custom killstreak.
Custom tiers obtainable thru quest, pvp and pve and beginner gear given by the beginner vendor.
Custom instances/raid well scripted and fun!
Unique lore
PvP and PvE oriented supports both so you can't get bored!
New starting area's
hang out areas, malls, duel area etc.
Vip/donor area, commands
world chat scripts also many other scripts.
event areas possibly
possibly going to redo my dual class/spec still working on this idea and how I'd build upon it.
possibly converting trinity's all class/race combo patch and sql over onto ArcEmu

Another question that some of you maybe wondering will I be doing this alone? Yes, I will be done on my own. I may accept help with some scripting that needs to be done or helping me brush up my skills and what not but no access at all the actual server. It will be ran locally on a old dell desktop of mine where I will be doing the work and then using my laptop to test it via in game. Maybe in the future I will accept in-game help, but I'm not sure. I am capable of this, I've been around private servers for a while now and have been a game master/ admin/ developer on a number of servers I do have the skills I believe to pull it off. Not only was a staff member on different servers I was also a player so I know what elements to include which is why I have both pvp and pve elements in this. I just need to brush up on my scripting in both lua and learn more about c++ since its been such a long time. This will be a side project to keep me busy at times, this will not be a main priority and I will not be rushing at all. I will post updates from time to time and when ready previews.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Future plans:

Of course more content, now I don't mean just randomness It will tie in with the lore, the story and what has took place but It won't be overdone with just complete nonsense I won't beat it with a stick don't worry.
A 255 realm, not using the old infinity gaming release. It will be completely done by scratch by me so you won't know whats in stored. This will come after I'm completely finished with the first realm and its as good as its going to get.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


The entire lore and concept still has work to be done fixing up, holes and knots that need be worked, this is simply a rough draft. Feel free to add me on msn [email protected] to give me any ideas, suggestions, even help with brushing up my skill set or just to talk.

A friend of mine and myself have been working on a complete custom wow using noggit3 and other editors.

We have the following:
no level cap
start from lvl 1
we have over 2500 quests so far
5 races to chose from
6 major classes with 2 "specs" for each class creating a special class
25 professions all with no skill cap
2 custom classes made from scratch with 5 custom spells for each class (these are hero classes)
over 50 zones so far to lvl in
5 instaces as of righ now for levels 20+ and 1 instance for lvls 110+
as of right now in our closed "beta" sort ot say were it just myself and the friends that help work on the project test, we have zones for 1-120 right now.

We are ever expanding. This has been a work in progress for over 2 years now. It is ALOT of work let me tell you, so just be prepaired for EVERYTHING to go wrong when you raise a level cap above the games "intended" level cap.

Impressive I must admit but only if its actually true, I've seen a lot of people talk a lot of talk saying this and that and in the end nothing. For example bloodfire wow promised so much and it didn't even kick into production, there were big people on it to but it didn't go through. If its possible via msn could I see a preview of all this? I'm not trying to attack you or call you a liar.

Also I'm aware of the work that will be up ahead of me and for things to go wrong. I'm ready to tweak, modify and optimize what will be needed to when the errors pops up. At level 100 I'm not sure if its less buggier then being 255 I've never tested to see the differences. If being at level 100 causes to much I'll have to go to source of whats causing or trying my best to and correcting it, editing what may need to be or using a work around. Most likely what will go wrong would be the core and the level and then client side issues. I've been around plenty of 255 and testing above level 80 and so far it seems pretty safe. But thank you for your concern.

Bump, update Spent a couple hours last night searching for areas for the four demons to take over, their names, their id's and the final demons spells.

The four demons are:
Stratos the demonic (Illidans display)
Protes (Archimonde display)
Zuran the dark (Zuramat the oliterartor)
Cytrax ( Mal'Ganis display)

The final demon you face will be Stratos, being the most powerful and final of the four it will require a 5 man group to take him down. He's going to be casting 5 different spells through out the fight but will be repeating all 5 and you will know by the phrases he will speak before each. They are not the same or similar spells, you must be prepared as for 1 or 2 of them will take down your health noticeably. Once Stratos is close to defeat he will cast a spell which will damage the tanks by 80% of his health and then will cast buff on himself increasing his attack speed by 100%. Will get into more detail once its complete or near it.

So far I have two pages full in my notebook from writing the locations, recalls, names, what fighting or spell types the demons will be using and then Stratos's spells. I would of continued last night but it was 2 am and I had a final this morning.
