Great topic, you put a lot of work in it. And I totally agree with the weekend thing. And what about a girl protag in Bully? That could be nifty.

Yeah a girl protag would be interesting. It would depend on how they did it. If it were just a boy in a girls skin (like they act like a boy and have the same attitude) or if it were uniquely female and had female interests and acted feminine.

Sounds good. It's a lot better than what I had planned I admit. I'd love there to be a riot mode as a cheat or something, like at the end of the original. That was fun.

Yeah like the riot cheat in GTA SA. That would be cool i havent even thought about any cheats, secrets or easter eggs i want to have in the game.

I added some stuff to the Bounty thing. I added that if you are wearing a costume (Santa suit, Halloween costume etc.) your bounty will not go up. So it kind of works like the Bandanna on RDR. I balanced it by making it so if your wearing a costume you cant take missions because otherwise people would just wear a costume throughout the whole game so they never gain any reputation. I also added that if you obtain a written letter from a teacher you can clear you reputation. So it functions like a Letter of pardon on RDR but these are rare and hard to get. Do you like these ideas about the system and can you think of any other ways i can improve it?

It's obvious you put a lot of work into this. That's very good, and it turned out well. Lots of good maps, a few good missions, but the classes seemed to mainly be reused from the original Bully. Good work, this is better than quite a bit of concept threads (albeit I've never seen a Bully one )

Hey do you have any suggestions for classes since you touched on that on your post and i didn't realize it until now. I wanted to change the classes but i couldn't think of any way to do it. So i just slightly changed them but didn't really make any drastic changes. So do you (or anybody for that matter) have any suggestions on it?

[AceRay]

nice ideas for the bounty system, I see you've thought about it a lot. But Sam has been banned so I guess he won't be saying anything.

Maybe have harder detentions if your bounty is harder? Say if you are in detention on tier 1 (easiest), then you have a small task to do, but if you're tier 5, you have a massive list of chores to do and they are harder.
Also, it would be cool if people who saw you commit a crime narked on you DEPENDING ON THE PERSON. For example, a nerd, girl or non-clique is more likely to nark on you than a tougher dude. So, when they see you, they call for the prefects and you have another chase. And if you do a heinous crime like cannibalism or beating the sh*t out of little girls, they'll come after you if they see you or something.

I still think there should be a reputation bar thing I talked about on the last couple of pages.

Oh Why was he banned? And also about the different types of people being more likley to snitch on you is good. So if you beat someone up infront of a Nerd and you let them get away they can go and tell an authority figure. And your reputation will go up or if it's something serious the prefects could come after you on the spot. But even though thats more realistic I could see it getting annoying how you would have to beat up everyone in the area if you don't want you reputation to go up. And your idea about harder detention is good like how on Bully 1. You would start out doing a small lawn and eventually get up to the football field.

They had a similar thing in RDR where if you did a Crime and someone saw you they would go Report it so you would either have to kill them or just start running away.

Yeah i know. The whole fame, honor and bounty system was cool. And thats the base of the current discussion because i definatly want to impliment it. I just want to find a way to make it work effectivly but not annoyingly. I added the system from RDR where if someone sees you committing a crime they can report it. The people who report you are the Nerds, Preps and Non clique students. But once you reach 90% respect with these cliques they will no longer report you. I think it wouldn't be too annoying because if you leave the immediate area and the prefect it was reported to doesn't see you you can get away. But your reputation will still go up.

OK so the main story is finished but the whole concept isn't done yet. I might add a couple more missions to the end of chapter 5 and change some other aspects. But its pretty close to finished.

Now the concept has entered what i call the "Finished" stage. That means that major work is done and there wont be any more major updates. Only small ones that change a few small details but nothing drastic is going to change. I was thinking about adding a character description section but I thought that be a little overkill. But i may add one at a later date. But for the foreseeable future the major work has ended.

don't bump for the sake of bumping.

Anyway, I've been playing Bully some more and I have to say once you finish the game, it gets really boring with everyone liking you. I really want that reputation thing that acts outside missions to be in use I suggested a couple of pages back. It just makes sense.

Don't bump unless you have something to say besides "bump".

Bully 2 will be worth a single playthrough but if they want it to be more memorable they need to expand on the game to keep me with it after the story. As AceRay said, the game dies off rather quickly after the final mission.

Thanks and I will remember that in the future. I agreed with what you said about it dying quickly. The only thing that you could really do after the main missions was hint for collectibles and run errands and some small side missions like bike races. I hope Bully 2 (if it's ever made) has some good multiplayer. That would add some replay value. And maybe better side missions after the game ends.

That's true. Did you finish all the yearbook stuff before the main story? That and buying all the clothing are about the only things you could really do. Not good enough, in my opinion.

I still havent done much of the yearbook actually I only have like half of the picures. When i got RDR i pretty much abandoned Bully. I think i may go back to it in the time before V comes out and do the yearbook pics and whatever i have left.

Taking pictures was really fun actually, it took me about an hour to find the last guy. It was a nice feature, I'd like something like that in GTAV, where we have to take pictures of stuff.

I'd also like for there to be weekends, so I can hang out at the town and wear normal clothes without the fuzz on my ass.

And in all fairness, you did have Go Kart races, Paper Runs and mowing lawns, so its not as if there's nothing to do at all.

Yea that's true. I didn'treally spend much time with those mini games but from whatiplayed they were alright. I've actually spent a lot of time at the carnival also. Pretty cool feature.

A hint here that Bully 2 could be on Rockstar's radar in the not too distant future.

Hopefully some truth in it, as the first one was superb.

Wow I hope so. I would love for a new Bully to come out and hopefully if they do make one it is sooner rather than later.

[GTAvanja]

You know what I really like about Bully? The fighting system. It rocks. Which is why I'm baffled at how fighting sucks in both GTA IV and RDR! Every feature in Bully was 100% awesome and it made sense in the world. They need to keep that in mind if they decide to make Bully 2.
