Ninja'd by the OP. Just trying to imagine how it would work now. Looking through your opponents eyes while controlling yourself?migo said:
A lot of games could be more interesting without gravity. Like how a shooter would become similar to the battle practice in Enders Game.
3rd person god game so you can see yourself while you make the earth with your almighty god-hands.
you have clearly never fought physcomantis in MGS1Yagharek said:
i would make a game in which you play as a squirell and you freeroam a city
I applaud you sir. You post a counterpoint to hate-mongering. That, combined with your Kimahri avatar makes you a worthwhile poster.migo said:
On-topic: I would want to bring back unrealistic FPSs. Games where you can charge into the fray, guns blazing as an actual effective strategy.
I think with SPS you'd have to do some sort of horror game. Like I think in Siren: Blood Curse you can see through the eyes of the zombies, it would be rather trippy to only be able to see through the eyes of the nearest enemy, and then to maintain a consistent viewpoint not kill the one that's closest to you while shooting everything else.Yagharek said:
As for no gravity, that's Descent, and boy am I waiting for that series to be revived.
That would be a really interesting take on RTS games too. You're giving everyone orders on the battlefield, as yourself.THEJORRRG said:
Like Ghosts & Goblins? One hit knocks you down to your underwear?comadorcrack said:
I agree with you, although I think it almost doesn't count as Unreal Tournament 3 came out 2 years ago. There's far too little of it otherwise.Ace of Spades said:
My rather insane idea would combine combat racing,car tuning,horror and creature breeding games.
You Breed "biomechanical" monsters and race them against other players online using both speed and the creatures weapons against your opponents.
Like the performance of a car depends on the parts its build from and fuel it uses, the monsters performance depends on the organs inside them and the food you feed them
With the money you make racing you would buy better organs and food or pay your team of mad scientist to come up with ways to upgrade your collection of monsters, like having them vat grow better organs to implant in them.
You could even have an online market to swap or buy monsters or monster parts between players
Monsters could also be bred together to produce offspring combining the strengths of the parents.
Or when a monster gets to old to race you could have your scientists "dismantle" it for parts.
As I said a rather insane idea but I think it could be a lot of fun too

FPS/RTS. One guy commands an army from above, the rest play special units in first person.
Actually... wasn't that done once or twice? Or something like it?

The HDs were the first time I played SS and it was the most fun I had with guns in years. Damn regenerating health and, worst of all, that 'can only carry 3 guns' nonsense.Engarde said:
3-second delay 2nd person fighting game. You can only see yourself through your opponent's PoV, and lag becomes part of the gameplay.
I'd be rich!
I'd be rich!
I'd make a proper SimCity 5, just for starters. Once I'd done that, I'd create a city-builder/trading-sim hybrid that was so esoteric and rich that only about five people on earth would want to play it. Then I'd be best friends for life with the other four.
