What kind of area/scene would you like to see?

What sort of areas have you guys always wanted to see in a mod? Or what is some of your favorite area's? Elevators? Moving Vehicle stages? City Street stages? Do you like the Darker area's with darker sounding music, or the sunny beaches and up beat music? Any crazy idea's that you've always wanted to see some potentially insane mod maker try to pull off?

I'd like to see a beach scene on a sunny day, we have a few night time beach scenes in mods already. I'd like to see something like the beach in Real Bout Fatal Fury Special with upbeat music.

You've never seen this classic battle between tux and teeth?

Haha, wow that would be pretty cool. I love those sort of "elevator" style stages, where the player is supsended on a single platform with a moving background, and a few rounds of swarming enemies. A tram would definitely be doable.

I like the idea of a beach scene. Except, the SOR2 beach scene in SORR has probably scared me for life with the Troll Ninja's and Kickboxers, lol.

From the finished mods, the roof top from Way of the Warrior gets my attention the most. I think I like a scene which has many elements.
I always prefer replaying a mod which has a good begining, like H.U.N.T.E.R, the first scenes from all episodes are nice.

This. Two phases, first inside and then outside the cable car, with a nice background. Would kick ass.

A few random ideas :
- sewers ;
- inside a library ;
- rock concert - either among the audience, on the stage, or both ;
- space-themed environments : rocket launching site, Moonraker-like space station, ... ;
- an ice-rink ;
- at the casino (Goldies and Electras everywhere).

Eww, Sewers? Really? Why sewers? Such a bland setting. SO many beat'em ups do it, and they're never a highlight.

Library? That's a bit sadistic. That's a place of peace and quiet enlightenment, and you want to punch punks in the face? LOVE IT.

Space-Themed- I actually kicked around an idea for a space mod. COuld be really cheesy...but yea, it could be neat. To bad there was no low gravity setting lol.

There are some pretty sweet mods with casino's, no? but yeah, it's always a fun setting. Lots of people, gambling, money; just seems like a good scenario for a fight.

Ice rink- That's a new one...hmm...I actually like that idea. SORR even has the "slippery" setting for it.

I'll forever be done with SOR if there is ever a damn "Volcano/Lava" level. I hate those in video games more than anything. Hate all the red, and stale lava flowing backgrounds. They're painful.

More trains

GAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA~! You're gonna luv what I did in DLC2 in a sewer segment! Definitely not seen before!

I used a whole casino concept in the Vegas mission of H.U.N.T.E.R, to be honest that was my dream and I made it true. I used all: exteriors, gambling hall, rooftop with cool signs, the fancy restaurant, even the boxing arena! Casinos are awesome indeed!

As for me, I have some ideas that have in mind (and that most likely would put 'em to use).

- Inside a strip club. I made a design already of it, keeping it as a wild card for a future mod.
- A resort beachfront. I went to one place like that and got the basic idea. Might be something never done before.
- A Hippodrome. Yeah, horse racing area. There's baseball and American football stadiums in mods but why not a hippodrome?
- A golf club. One of the most boring sports yet one of the nicest and rich places. Could be good usage of great natural backgrounds.
- A Barrio. Yup, too many Chinatowns already (myself guilty as charged), so why not a place with a latino, Mexican flava? yeah, low riders, religious graffiti (Virgen de Guadalupe, Mi Vida Loca) and Mexican food joints. Plus it needs vatos locos as enemies!
- A Koreantown. Yes, the same. It has never been used and there's tons in the world. This can be home of the Korean mob.

I like a good moving scene, like train stages.

There was a good train stage in the Turtles in Time mod IIRC.

Or a football pitch with an animated crowd, plenty of those on Neo Geo, SNES and Megadrive.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. I mean, it's not like it doesn't have possibilities; Mucking through sewer water, a few green drainage waterfalls....it's just gross....

I'd agree about the trains...or anything moving. It's a fun change. A beat 'em up isn't a beat 'em up without an elevator stage, though. lol. It's not possible to do a multi-directional elevator like the Expander elevator, is there?

Nope, although that would have been a cool feature.

School
Prison
Hospital
Asylum

Not related to this topic, but mods based on another centuries (from the past or the future) would definitely be great.

A police station with lots of Mr.X and SOR3 handgunners with blue or jumpsuit style palletes as makeshift police enemies.

A Mexican drug cartel base with Mr.X and SOR3 gunmen with green jumpsuit style palletes.

On top of a moving air plane with lots of jetpack guys(like in the air plane level of Contra Force).

A meat factory with Galsia constantly armed with knives and axe wielding jugglers(both of which being people that work there).

An oil rig.

A small elevator car to the top of a water tower(for a boss fight).

An alien spaceship with NeoX robots as the aliens and SOR3 P1's as combat bots.

An african american getto with all african-american enemies.


PS:The Barrio idea Vecta recommended is certianly something thats way over due. I recall the game Shank and figure someone could edit the first few levels from that for a mod.

There's been a lot of areas types that have been explored.

I guess I still love to see new streets stages with plenty of neons in the SoR fashion way.
There's also beach stages (busy with sunset would be wonderful).

Or some kind of stages that don't belong to the SoR universe in funny mods (which SoR Resurrection will probably do)

I'd like to see more urban areas myself.

I always like seeing really detailed and beautiful scenary. One of my passions though is horror and I'd love to see a mod that is based in a horror-styled scenary. Has anybody ever played the OpenBOR game Jennifer? That is probably that best example I can think of in terms of something with amazing horror-ish feel in a sprited game. It might not really be the most logical setting for the SoRR universe though I'd love a Zelda: Ocarina of Time styled setting too. I'm thinking in particular of the different elemental temples. I adored the forest temple.

Yeah, I like way out stuff x)

Maybe a submarine battleship with SOR 3 handgunners using a navy blue jumpsuit pallete(white out their tie). Same goes for Mr.X.

well i did have some ideas thai i like to see:

a kindergarden

a school or highschool with cafeteria and everything (teachers and students)

in the space, a colony space station or something.

the jungle with wild animals, lions, tigers, etc.

the antartic.

themes like jurassic park or cadillacs and dinosaurs or lost words.

I love streets area with shops, arcades and all but i think a very good challenge for modders is this:
D&D Shadow over Mystara Tower Area.

You know that one with a scrolling background as we walk stairs and animated layers that announce incoming mooks!
I'm pretty sure it's doable with sormaker.

I tried that. It's too difficult to make. Best thing you can do is a big circular area like a plaza in a mall but not diagonal.

Sounds nice too! I hope you bring this in one of your mods
