Create A Character?

[Bully Boy 2011]

Why does everyone seem to believe that Bully 2 will have Jimmy Hopkins as the protagonist again? You all talk about "Jimmy In College this" and "Gary Returning to take revenge on Jimmy that" BORING!!

Why does nobody think that creating your own character will be a better option?

Something like Saints Row 2 where YOU create absolutely everything about YOUR main character. From his voice to his face and body size and even play online with him.

Now wouldn't you prefer that option instead of boring old Jimmy Hopkins again?

^ Actually, I'm the one that has been saying all along that if there ever is a Bully 2 there will be all different characters in an all different setting.  It would be foolish to just carbon-copy the game and try to market it again....That was already done with Bully SE.

I wouldn't mind having a create your own character. You sure ain't going to play as Jimmy, Rockstar has never did this. And I don't see why they'd start with this one.

Well, uh... I first was disappointed to see you couldn't create your own character in Bully, but playing for a while with Jimmy Hopkins made me love him. I want to see him in Bully 2, but not as a protagonist, more some passive person for the people who played Bully to find. If Rockstar creates another character that is so cool like Jimmy, I don't mind not having to create him.

And a list of about 20 pre selected names for your character would be good.
Each name obviously would have been recorded with all the characters saying it throughout the game
So all you do is select one and your ready to go

[Mercury]

^ Good idea, true that. Just like the wrestling games. Each name would have a connotation...

Laurent Loiselle
Tony Calderone
Armando Garcia

Can recognize where they're from ? See.

I honestly could care less about most of this, I'd rather have 3 or 4 different endings to the game.

[Bully Boy 2011]

I just think Bully 2 should be so much more customizable than bully 1 which was a very restrictive game.

Also i think online play should be heavily worked on as it seems more people play online than single player these days.

[Crazy Snake]

Online would be ok I'd play it, but FPS games are what dominate the online right now. They'd have to make it fun and addicting. Like with GTA I felt they could of did more stuff with the online than they did.

Something like Saints Row2 Co-op mode online would be most ideal.
But since its Rockstar it will probably be like RDR online which is very fun aswell
GTA4 online let me down though. I hope Bully 2 online wont be anything like that

[Crazy Snake]

Yea having a coop mode would defiantly put a lot of fun in the online portion. And your right Rockstar hit gold with how good RDR was online.

Laurent Loiselle
Tony Calderone

Are these the names of our NES characters ?

[Bully Boy 2011]

What is NES?

[Mercury]

Chuck, actually, their names were taken of the NES. I came up with Calderone in a book I'm reading about the Corleone Mafia Family. Calderone was a big guy back then. For Loiselle, I remember reading it in a Tom Clancy's thing. It's made for the reader to know immediately that this guy is french.

The NES is an acronym for Never Ending Story. The NES is a story I started written together by many members of the board, found under the Community Stories section.

I read some of Tom Clancy. Isn't Loiselle from Rainbow Six?
