So Christie will be the type "underneath the many layers of a rich bitchy bimbo lies a nice girl".
Nikki is more of a "
I can fix her".
Carla is "
have hots for you but will take time to open up".
Fiona is "
totally into you and vice versa".
Emily is "
flirting with you to falling for you".

Of course Rex is the
Tybalt of Domino beach and hopefully will have the same fate. Get his ass kicked and have his crush Olivia taken by MC.....his mother and sister haven't been introduced so far so who knows.

Thank you for a few enjoyable evenings! :coffee:
I was really sad when a picture appeared with the inscription that that’s all for now!

Cool project, awesome images, night renders are very atmospheric - just "Fire"!

I have a couple of questions:
- how often updates come out?
- and the dev, do you share the assets of the base models?
I know many of them, mso, anagord and ect. Did you change their appearance or is this a base?

hm, maybe i did, but i always redownload the game everytime i update, i did however use my old save, so it is probably cause of that, imma try to check
You have to redownload a new mod for each update. Mod for Ep 1 will block Episode 2 from working.

You have to make sure you have the same mod version that matches the game version. :)

Carla and Christine are going to be the super endgame grind girls for sure. Carla is basically going to be the BARS version of Jane aka the tough nut to crack except you don't have your "wingman" (sister) to help you this time. :ROFLMAO:

hello,
I've got a bad crc error/warning message while extracting the archive:
inflating: DominoBeach-pc/game/images.rpa bad CRC 31aaaf80 (should be 2f96b044)
is that expected?

Edit: didn't find any missing image, though I'm sure I haven't completely explored those two huge chapters!

I'm only a little ways into the second episode, just after the teenage drama catfight between the girls. Is this the direction the story is going? Twenty-year olds acting like they're still in high school. "Stay out of our turf, man." Like, seriously, grow up, all of you.

I was invested in the idea of a young guy who moved to the big smoke and is trying to find his way in life by becoming a lifeguard. But if the story is going to revolve around the conflicts between a bunch of obnoxious fuck-knuckles with surfboards then not even the high quality art can save this game.

Young adults figuring out what it means to be an adult is interesting. Shallow young adults acting like they're still sixteen is not. High school drama is inherently boring because the solution to every problem is for the participants to just stop behaving like children. The underlying issue in an argument gets forgotten the moment people start throwing tantrums.

This is a mistake I see writers make all the time. They've heard that good stories have conflict in them, but they don't understand what that really entails. So they settle on let's have everyone be unreasonably angry at each other. Because if people are fighting, that's conflict, right?

It's disappointing because you had the setup right for a while. Guy is down on his luck. Rescues someone from drowning because he's a good guy. Gets offered a job as a lifeguard. He really needs the money if he's going to stay in town and pursue his dream.

But for personal reasons XYZ he doesn't think being a lifeguard is for him, or would conflict with some other values he has, or some life circumstance. In this version the MC reluctantly takes the offer because he needs money and doesn't want to go back to his hometown in defeat. Then faces challenges during the exam that repeatedly push him to the brink of quitting. Something happens that changes his perspective. Yadda yadda yadda he become a proud lifeguard and runs down the beach to the theme of Baywatch. And yeah, you have side plots with other characters, including rival surf gangs, but they don't devolve into high school drama. The core conflict is a character arc where the MC's current values and beliefs are challenged by the reality of his situation and the differing values/beliefs of the people around him, and so he learns to make compromises, or changes his values completely. This is a much more compelling way to write drama than just having characters be salty dicks.

Maybe the writing will get better as it goes on, but I've got my doubts. The story is already veering away from "MC becomes a lifeguard" to "MC works in a cafe and listens to endless gossip about losers who hang around the beach too much". BARS had the same problem. That game was supposed to be about the MC becoming a rock star, but was mostly just him fucking around and about with his friends. Dev, if you're gonna make your game about a particular premise, maybe you wanna commit to it.

Yeah this.
I don't want to have anything to do with the childish fight these 2 groups have...seriously, grow up you morons.
The 2 most pathetic characters are Rex and his father. Like man, does Rex need his father with money and political influence to go against the MC cause he was mean to him...does his old man has nothing better to do than to get involved into this nonsense :rolleyes:
