The annoying thing is, the world is so incredibly stupid and like to look for every single bit of controversy in any video games. It'd be like, "Guns....school.... must be influenced by Columbine High School massacre, could cause more shootings!" As innocent as the game may be, there will almost certainly be people like that. No disrespect to your idea or the Columbine High School massacre, just the people that look for controversy.

This sounds good. I would play it, but it might be better as a downloadable, short game than a full sized $50 one. Although, I don't know where the shooter would come in. Last I checked most schools don't have an abundance of guns, and many high school students aren't proficient in assault weapons you might steal from the soldiers.
Too bad they aren't chest high then it could use Gears of War type game play.2012 Wont Happen said:

Sounds cool but.....A highschool? Highschools have halls and classrooms. Not alot of oportunity for stealth. except mabye in the closet of a classroom. But then it becomes an "Intruder drill" simulualton. Bt a drill is a simulation. I confused myself.
Small town vs. militia. Cool. Make it the whole town and make the highschool an accesible area.
Would the bosses have metal gear-esque powers and names like Insectoid Sniper for a Hall moniter that fight like Speed Buster from No More Heroes. The insectoid part comes from the fact that the hall moniter was nerd about bugs. The lunch lady Could be Tray Play because she wears lunch tray armor and wields giant tongs to grab you and throw you around. You have to kill her in a chase sequence ( like the Shagohod) and make her trip into the boiler. She escapes but loses her armor than you fight her.
If i was you i would rather make the setting of the game at a university instead of a high school the game would be a lot bigger and more open
A highschool setting for a shooter game? Especially a modern day shooting game? I can't imagine the game developer that would put their hands on it, that just screams "bad influence for kids".
And to be honest, this is one time where I might agree with them. Agreed a Highschool setting might be interesting, but you have to consider the types of people who might put their hands on the game. If you break down the game to the basics, you've got guns + high school + kids dying. That's not quite the formula for success.

that's true. although, the close quarters labarynthian setup of most highschool was sort of what I was thinking of when I pictured the gameKrackleJack said:
I was thinking of possibly learning how to develop this sort of thing myself so I wouldn't have to pitch ideas to reluctant developers. I don't think location would have much to do with the sort of person dying. I think the people who buy this would be the same people who bought Freedom Fighters or Red FactionIrishhoodlum said:
That depends on your definition of stealth. I would say Assassin's Creed, and what I've seen of the new Splinter Cell: Conviction, are definately "stealth" games, but not about not being seen. Stealth can simply be blending in to a crowd, or just being out of the attention of bad people (and isn't that what highschool is all about?).wrecker77 said:
