Project
Category: Programming / Database Development
Subcategory: Game Programming
Description: Dear sir or madam

The project in question is a sort of MMORPG and sports game (football) called 'Player'. where each user is an individual player on the football (soccer) field within a team of eleven players who will compete with other teams of eleven individual players who also make up an entire team. each player will have their own individual statistics profile which depending on their performance in games will either increase or decrease their value. the players value dictates whether he can move to play for a bigger club after the end of the season.

PLAYER:
each players statistic will be related to a position hence if the players duel increases then his strength as a defender subsequently increases. the statistics change depending on the players performance in the game. the players strength is related to his value so the higher a players strength in a particular position the higher his value.

CLUB:
no one needs to manage the club it is done through set algorithms were club finances are not considered for instance the 'transfer in' of players will be dictated through a rule which states that the team in first place will attempt to transfer in the top 10 players and the team in second place will attempt to transfer in the next 10 players and so on. we understand that the players positions need to be considered otherwise the first team might transfer in 10 strikers so the rule will look at the most frequent formation used and dependent on this will select players it is interested in for instance if it is 442 then it will choose the top four defenders and midfielders and the top 2 strikers. now because each teams must have 10 user controlled players at all times then the team in first place will need to release one of its players inorder to sign up another. in this case the transfer in comes into the 'first team' and the transfer out will be placed onto a 'virtual transfer market' this player will have a rank and dependent on this a team will attempt to sign him up so if he was the 65th best player the the sixth best team would attempt to sign him in which case this team would drop one of its players in the virtual transfer market and this player will be picked up by another team and this trend will continue until the team that originally sold the player (hence has one less player) gets a player into their team.

COMPETITIONS:
the users player will be in a team and teams compete in competitions and cups hence there will be three competitions one league which will be seperated into domestic leagues (english.spanish.italian.german and french) another cup tournament that allows teams from the domestic leagues to compete with one another (similar to the champions league) and one international world cup tournament where each nation is represented by their best 10 players. free places is occupied via modest computer controlled player.

MATCH:
there needs to be two other options one training and one live match. the live match option is not active unless a match is playing and the training is open for the team. in training the 10 players play 5 a side.

Additional Notes: when players are not online during game play then the computer controls their player using their current statistics hence all players do not need to be online for match and training to occur. when a player logs on he can resume control of his or her respective player.

the actual game does not need to be like a pro evolution 2008 game. the gameplay is far more important then the graphics. i have played online games that have no real graphics just a database sort of game and manage to attract thousand of users. im thinking master system graphics or worse but the game play needs to be simple but addictive. simple control options such as move pass and shoot.

i would like to know how much would it cost to develop and what is a realistic time frame for its completion and if possible the running cost of this sort of game?

feedback from other programmers indicated that the project even using the most basic graphics would cost millions and a time frame of 1-3 years and exceptional running cost. the main point is regarding the *server* which cannot take in instructions from 20 users and output the result in realtime and have been advised to opt for a turn based version.

the reason i persist on this project is because i have received allot of positive feedback regarding the idea and cannot wait until servers become more powerfull. i wanted a second opinion on the mater and if it is too difficult or too expensive to set up this sort of game then i am willing to modify the idea so that it is feasible and can be produced at a reasonable cost. moreover could someone please enlighten me and tell me how many users would a typical server be able to handle inorder to allow realtime playability? i look forward to hearing from someone soon.

yours Sincerely
Kibria Gulam

Description: I want to put a PBBG game on my site, something fun where kids can take care of their dragons and move up levels based on things they do and flash games, etc. Understanding of knowledge of PHP, MySQL and web design might be helpful. I would provide much of the art and design as well to save on costs, but I am not able to do the technical aspect myself.

I am on a budget, so I'm looking for something reasonable. If you can do this without charging me a ton I'd be so appreciative!
