After viewing the video of Shootmania (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBoPQIY1 ... re=related) Witch i never will buy . Its also maybe time to created something new
:yes: BOATMANIA :yes:
Races on water with boats
For example
Hoover-kraft driving races on water and land (know in the USA)
F1 boat-race on ocean parts of the world
Sailing race
And many more
With the editor possibility , Creation of maps will by endless
Later on you can link it to SHOOTMANIA Boatwars

And yes it exist already from Nadeo http://www.nadeo.com/ so combine it in a new world

The Nadeo's been a game of sailing boats, but it was a simulator, did not have the same features of TrackMania (like the track editor).
The game was called Virtual Skipper.

Maniaplanet is about the biggest gaming genres, boat simulation is not one of them :thumbsup:

Look at what Crusard did in his track: The Trump Card II

OffShore is a better example in my opinion. :P

To be honest, as much of a fan as I am for Nadeo's products.... I don't think I'd buy a boating game if they made a new one. I just have very little interest in it, even if it was jetskis and speedboats on narrow courses.

This topic somehow reminded me of this video though.

LOL I think this is gonna take off...I've been gone for a while (again, sorry :-? ) But I come back and see that Maniaplanet is growing, which I like. If they can fulfill this vision of 3 Mania-games, why stop there?

Good point. I have a feeling that Nadeo wont stop at MP if it is very successful :thumbsup: There is immense potential to develop in other genres, although I think for the next... 5 years at least TM2 SM and QM will keep nadeo busy!
