You're still wrong... Huge 2d maps are not simple. Online play will involve co-ordinates of potential hundreds of people being received, that will mean play will get very slow for old computers and/or slow connections.Did you even read my last post? I said that because 2D maps are very simple to load and even easier to display.
Large 2D maps aren't simple, but loading and displaying them are. Online is the only thing that should make this game have problems.You're still wrong... Huge 2d maps are not simple.

I was wondering... Since in the games you usually have a mother who can save money for you. Since the region(s) aren't that large a ground to cover it's ok if you want to withdraw money every once in a while. Now this game is much larger, which means that if you're mother stays in one place (which would make sense because it's her home) you will have to travel much further if you are in need of money. That made me wonder if the Captain is going to be using this system or if he is going to implement something else that will allow you to save your money.
I can't remember this question or something similar being asked before, so I hope I'm not repeating things...
I just checked, but I can't find anything... :SCheck the first post, I think he said something about banks
You will not be able to hold more, but there are banks in the game, which can hold almost infinite amounts of money for you. In Viridian City, the building with the black limo in front of it and bulliton board next to it is the Viridian City Bank.
Have you heard of a game called dragon destiny by a guy called Rast? It was an rm2k game that needed at least a 1ghz processor, because it had huge maps. However simple the processes involved are, when you have a huge map with 100+ people walking around on it (NPCs), it's going to be slow on an old computer, because even when they're not on screen the computer has to keep track of all of those people.Large 2D maps aren't simple, but loading and displaying them are.

Yeah, join the club (><)Wow I feel kinda of stupid.
Look, can you just accept that I know what I'm talking about. I've been using sphere for over 4 years. In fact, I made the Mac version of sphere. When I say something about sphere, I am normally right...It doesn't really matter the size of the map itself (unless your playing a sims game, they suck), it's the amount of data in the map. For example IF there is a map with no people on it, but is very big, the time it takes to load could be shorter than the time it takes for a rather small map with many items or people. Also, most pokemon games have an uber fast loading time
