Technolust: Usenet (world within world) Idea
Hey forum, i want to create the most popular technolust "world within a world" which i call "usenet" technolust world assets: -there would be a series of high class party venues in the techno...
Forum Discussion
no ideas? hmmm
to summarize:
-I set this world within a world up as the most closely guarded world ran and managed by anonymous hackers (gamers)
-gaining access to this world would be like completing a quest
i have committed to the idea that the Usenet world would be the VR equivalent of a social forum or chat.
it will have a futuristic campus setting
why campus?
a campus setting is the perfect setting to facilitate seamless voice chat from one to many without having to include some third party social network system....
4 key components to how this will work;
-campus
-podium
-desks
-rooms
each campus could be its own forum (i.e technolust campus, oculus campus et all). and each campus could have its own unique design. the class rooms inside these campuses would essentially be the VR equivalent of threads. who ever is at the podium is broadcasting their voice to the entire room (similar to karaoke night demo). when you sit down at a desk there will be a virtual interactive screen on it. you can use this screen to input votes and/or generate emoticons or otherwise communicate with the room or speaker. if you dont like what the person is saying just get up and leave the room.
as you are wandering around the campus you will be hearing speakers talking to groups when you pass by their room.
if you like to host your own discussions the goal would be to find a room with an open podium. podiums are first come first serve? so you will have to claim it as your own and essentially from then on you are free to host a VR talk show.
telepads all over the place; use pad to switch to different campuses
done and done :)
