Aspies For Freedom

Ever wondered how the perfect PC game would be? Maybe you've thought that the PC game should give just a little bit more and the game would be perfect. I have alot of ideas but I am not very interested in becoming a game designer, and you can't get money if you just have some few ideas and no experience with selling them.

Ideas of different aspects of a game like storyline, controls, strategy and setting would be interesting, but you don't have to have ideas about all of them.

Here's a simlar thread on another site which have alot of ideas of a sequel to a space simulator game.

For me it would be a starwars game, much like america's army you'd be an Imperial trooper, pilot, or officer..and you'd train from recruit through to officer.

It would have good graphics of course, 1st or 3rd person shooter, with most of the Imperial vehicles AT-AT, AT-ST, AT-PT, Tie Crawler  and the capital ships such as Star Destroyers :p and of course my favorite, the TIE series of fighters.

that game would be the sex

My Game Idea

I like the thought of something in between a spaceship simulator game and a strategy game(a bit like Age of Empires). You can choose to focus more on one of those two as well something in between.

The universe should be vast aswell as very interactive. It could seem impossible to do both as you would like to have alot of details to planets etc which would take up alot of memory if you want them to be interactive. The solution I had in mind was that planets were made up by "planet brick 3d models" which would appear multiple times throughout the universe. This instead of making unique planet models for every single planet. 10 unique bricks take up ten times more memory than one brick used at ten different places.

The bricks will be chosen to a planet dependent of what kind of planet it is (liquid sea/vulcano/desert/alien forest/mountains etc.) aswell of which area of the planet the brick is.

The strategy side of the game is about developing throughout space and defeat or ally other factions. It seems like there already is alot of ideas about how this is done already which have been set into PC games. One idea which think have not been used yet is that settlers of a planet could bring (alien)animal DNA. From the DNA they will make creatures which could survive and reproduce on the planet dependent of the planet's environments.

I have alot of other ideas, but that will be enough for now.

^ was also thinking about having a first/third person side of his game idea.

Something to add to my game-idea is that in addition to the strategy you play a character with super-abilities. Your character's body will be enhanced with technology of different kinds(nano, biological, mechanical, alien-transplants etc.). The character can be specced in many ways.

You will use the character in mainly a 3rd shooter game. You will use your character in battle, the benefits of good prestation in fight are numerous. You will be more likely to have won the fight by how much you helped and you might inspire your soldiers and increase the morale.

I am not sure if there should still be a spaceship-sim part of the game, rather third person shooter in space maybe still with spaceship allies and enemies.

I think it would be cool if people could make new models for the game with new alien playable aswell as NPC races + terrain and asteroid models.

Instead of a whole planet to be generated with a collection of ready-made models I think there should only be generated random area models which with random values and ready-made models will appear differently each time. The areas are used in fights where you use your super-character aswell as some other things.

I guess I got my own thread! I guess I actually have some ideas, maybe I should become a game designer after all. Anyway, I had fun making a list of what I imagined so that I could add whenever I wanted, I'd still enjoy hearing other's ideas.

The perfect game I've been dreaming of for years is sorta like the sims except way more awsome. No bounderies, do whatever you want(like real life), you can be a fugitive or criminal.

Or what I just thought of is a dinosaur game. You play as a dinosaur of your choice and you go out to kill and eat things.

Or a hospital game (they might have this out already), but that'd be sweet.

GTA: San Andreas wasn't far off that, 3CL

Damn thats given me an idea for, what is known in the industry as, a killer app

Think about it..you create a world, people, anything..then control it directly

It's an old concept, but I don't think its ever been done in such detail.

What about just a sexy kind of game, e.g. one with some scantily clad females (not actual adult content, tho) ?

Are there any games like that, out there?

Sure, Need for Speed U2, car-racing game.

As for my idea, I think there should be a spaceship simulator aspect of the game after all. Aswell, as as some other battle aspects of the game like commanding and controlling land vehicles. You could also be able to fly in air. Vehicles and spaceships could also get super-spec-abilities just as your character's body. The strategy part of the game might have to smaller as there are so many aspects of battlefield side of the game.

You still here? -.o

It sound like a great idea (I love AOE), but what exactly will it be, a strategy game, a FPS/TPS, or a city builder? Cramming too many things together isn't always the best thing to do, although if you sort it out right it could be innovative.

I have an idea for a fighting game with with strategy elements, and fighters with slightly customisable stats (increasing the number of scenarios).

Shinra strategy game ;p

all with modelled pollution, "real" shinra units and stuff

Of course you'd also be able to play as Avalanche, no doubt the FF7 Before Crisis one which was more like an army.
