Your a guy that has to deliver newspapers to houses. But you have to advoid the dogs cause they knock you off your bike.
Hmm...maybe a big Flight Sim with real terrain, cities and vegetation on the ground.
Also, i always had the idea of a game where you are some Airforce Pilot or something who crashes behind enemy lines and have to get back to safety by crossing a huge valley, filled with dense forests, small towns, bases and everything. Since i would like to have a consistent Gameworld without any linear paths, loading times or artificial fog that is ALSO so big that it would take five or six hours to cross even if you could sprint all the way through it in a straight line without interruption, at least one or two terabyte would seem appropriate for that kind of game

I'd steal the hard drive and sell it for a bottle of Jack and a trigger-happy tranny named Kinky Renee.
Either that or I'd leave it blank and leave a whole bunch of tools at the players disposal. Ideally, it would be an online game where dozens of denizens of the world would have to decide what to do with the place. [Irony] It would be interesting to see what people would do with it[/Irony]

Trench warfare on a real size battleground, you have o decide wether you fight, run supplies, dig the trenches,but you have to sleep and stuff, so if yor ot careful you get attackedwhile your to tired to fight back, so youd have to manage your aquad propperly to protect it all the time!!!
that or a 72 mile by 72 mile game of online snake!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets take that further. Not only do you have to avoid the dogs, as you do more papers your endurance and speed slowly raise (in a morrowindistic fashion). But at the same time, the dogs become more powerful the more you get away.PurpleRain said:

But, for my own Idea. Pulling from what the fellow above me said abotu a giant snake game. I would think something more like an epicly huge FP/TP Pong game using beach ball sized ball and everyone has giant paddles on their heads. I guess 4 players per team and differing positions. Occasionally wind would come and blow some people away for a period of time!
Basically just create a huge world with realistic levels of detail and varied environments (desert/forest/plains/mountains) around any of the standard genres. Incorporating realtime day/night cycles, weather, and life necessities of your character (eating/pooping/shelter/appropriate clothing/etc) would be cool too.
No. You just deliver papers. There's about four levels. And in each levels there are more dogs. Not too many but. Let's keep it simple people.ChrisP.Lettuce said:
Sweet. But what time period I wonder? If they ever tried a sequel to SW Galaxies, trying to correct all the mistakes of it's predecessor, I would reccomend immediate post-Return of the Jedi as a 'starting time'. Like, Palpatine just now died, that fact has just now been broadcast. Suddenly like a dozen high-profile Imperials become rogue Warlords with their own little realms. There's rioting on Coruscant's streets, celebrating and anarchism on quite a few others. What will THIS character (your character) decide to do with the rest of their life after becoming aware of this huge fact? And NO, the answer is not fashion a bunch of clothes or dance half-naked in a Cantina.Anarchemitis said:
Seeing as how I should post my own idea, not just expand on Anarchemitis', how about one of the more popular Mecha Anime worlds fully rendered online? Or, to avoid copyright hassles, just create a realistic-looking one similar to a majority of them with a lot more variation for said mechas.
A million player global warfare simulator with a real-sized replica of Earth.It would be a mix of RTS/FPS/RPG. As you grow in ranks, you'd have control over more and more players.A noob would be some random soldier.As he progressed he'd use better weapons, take control of vehicles and others.When he was experienced enough, he'd get to command his own group of players.Obviously he'd still get orders from people above him, yet he'd be able to use special abilities to aid his platoon.Imagine being a leader and killing half a million players with a nuke.
Spy sappin' mah drawin' board! Sounds like Mercenaries HD to me.TheNecroswanson said:
If the world that we build can include information about NPC's, have a game that's set in a sizeable town, but still only a few miles square. Now give every NPC the interactivity, personality and creativity of a human, populate the town with them, and make give every building and indoors environments, with seamless loading. And no copying and pasting buildings or their indoors into other places, you cheapskates. All as individual as real homes.
I'd play that.
Like this, but completely complex. Go from the original infestation when you get confused news stories, keep going as more and more appear the Government trying to calm things down, the army deployed etc etc. Eventually it turns into a full blown outbreak.LordOmnit said:
Include some system that either forces players to be zombies if they're infected or have a limited number of playable characters so that you can't constantly reroll everytime you die.
