Poll: Idea for a stealth type shooter

[2012 Wont Happen]

I had an idea for a good stealthish game. It's like a Red Dawn-ish scenario where a foreign country invades and there's a small resistence. The difference would be that this game would be set at a high school and the students and faculty would be the resisters ambushing soldiers in the hallways. I don't know why the soldiers would be in a high school but the layouts of highschools are so interesting and the gameplay would be so cool I don't think it would matter. Your thoughts?

 

[NOT WILL]

if it is done right then it would be very cool. the high school that i am at is small though

 

[martin's a madman]

Anything is possible, setup with a nice story and an actual reason to be in the school and it shouldn't be half bad.

mine is big and it has this courtyard in the middle with your standard waist high brick walls so there could be just a straight action segment too that wasn't stealth if it was used as a base for the game. I think most schools have something like that though

What if the new country invaded and took over, and schools were set up to "re-educate" the youth population of America to the invading people's way of life. This would be a pretty good setting for a good game. I think it should be like a cross between Bully, Assassin's Creed, and Grand theft Auto. You're like the "teen rebel" character that starts a group against the school leaders.

What do you think?

Here's some more for you, the attackers are terrorists, a group of a bunch of them taking you all hostage. Your the students and use the knolage of the school to your advantage to take down the terrorists, you know something like that.

Although this game seems like it would be very short so i don't know.

that's a good idea

as to the other- if a whole game can be based in a mall, I bet school would work

I think it is a very interesting idea. The School could almost be the initiation into the game. From there you could grow up, form a resistance etc . . . One of the requirements for a stealth shooter is the fact you have to be outclassed, out numbered, and out gunned at every angle. If you could pull that off, without changing into a COD knockoff action shooter or making the missions repetitive then I think it could be a very good game.

Could work, but leave out cutscenes unless there important unlike MGS. One time when I was Raiden I found Olga on the stairs and they made me watch her escape. It did nothing to advance the story. You also need to have booby-traps like Home Alone. Stealth kills are also nessecary along with interigation.

@Supreme Unleaded

Why always terrorists? Thats already a lame idea...

@2012WontHappen:

Why not a nonlinear game, as a resistance group? but NOT a SCiFi scenario, more nowadays, in towns looking like those from "S.T.A.L.K.E.R.", i mean a bit post-apocalyptic....

and open world game....

 

[TimeLord]

I thought this was the idea of MGS4....................

The whole stealth shooter thing I mean

 

[snaaaake]

Like a new student council composed of glowing-eyed childern with tele-kinesis that you fight as a boss. You would fight in cafetria, so they could throw food, tables and chairs.

What if the new country invaded and took over, and schools were set up to "re-educate" the youth population of America to the invading people's way of life.

What do you think?

 

[Infallible Fail]

The high school idea is very interesting. I for one frequently dream of stealth-shooting in my school. The layouts of most schools are completely suited to stealth gameplay. Include the hardened war veteran turned teacher? ;P

 

[Xyphon]

I'm interested..... as long as I could use the vents to move around in and surprise strangle people.

 

[Snowalker]

I think this sums my opinion up.

 

[Shamgarr]

bosses include:
lunch ladies
hall monitors
the princepal
PE coaches

and potential allies/enemies include:
goths
athletes
preps
nerds
etc

 

[LockHeart]

If they could pull off the Assassin's Creed style thing of blending in with the crowds and having to conduct actual guerilla warfare, then I think there could be something in this idea. At least, I'd take a shot at playing it.

 

[The Madman]

It would be a pretty short game after the invading nation just bombs the school from afar.

Game over man, game over!

 

[adledog]

i actually had this same idea a while ago and i do think with a good layout it could be pretty good

 

[quack35]

You thought of this while walking between classes at your high school, didn't you?
