Well, I seem to have remembered one of my old game ideas (from 4th grade,) I will lay out what I remember now.

The game is pretty simple, a first person shooter like half life (exact same controls.) In place of humans & aliens, you have giant robots (like gundams) called Guards.

The setting for this game, is post apocolyptic, with almost every city in ruins, & only about 1 million people surviving the nuclear war.

2 sides have formed, the NOF & the HMMG. The NOF are similar to the Zeon in Gundam, & the HMMG similar to the EFF. (I know, sounds like a gundam clone thus far x-d.)

Both sides are fighting for control of the remaining earths surface (not much remains anymore due to global warming from the nuclear war.) the NOF controls Europe, Africa, half of Asia, & the middle east, while the HMMG control both america's, Austrailia, the other half of Asia, & most of the islands.

You start out at the bottom rank, & must work your way up to the top rank (either Supreme Commander (NOF) or General (HMMG)) by doing missions & winning at the neutral arena to get armor, weapons, & other items for your side.

The Guards themselves may not look much different than mobile suite, but they will have conversion parts. Most conversion parts will have an elemental attribute. Each doing 2x the normal damage or .5 the normal damage to the target/health.

Each item will have different rarities, with Dark & light being some of the rarest. Different weapons would be availible, if you find them, if its a ballistic, the ammo would be the elemental property (Ice would shoot out ice shards while fire would shoot out magma pellets,) & if its an energy weapon, it will do elemental damage plus the energy beam (an ice weapon would have a chance of freezing the enemy.)

The story line that I was working out for it, is too long to post online, so I wont post it until I get the site up, depending on the response I get here. I was orriginaly planning to make this a live action TV show (with 3d models for the Guards.)

Anyway, for those who havnt seen gundam, a Guard would be a 4 story tall humanoid robot, that can walk & move like a human. The Guard pilots chamber, would be similar to that on G Gundam (if the player punches, the guard would punch, kind of like VR.)

I was planning for events to lead up to the NOF to try & start a second nuclear war, while the HMMG try to prevent it.

What do you all think, would this make a pretty good FPS? I wanted to include location based damage & a targetting system, that would turn off if the head was shot. I also wanted to have it so that if the limb was hit, the arm/leg/head would fall off & if there is a weapon attached to it, it would fall too, until you move your crosshairs over your fallen arm, hold down the E button until a bar finishes, then the gun will appear in the other arm, while the player drops the shield.

I do plan to not use a targetting system for limbs, so it takes more skill to hit one, than it would an armor part, as it can have devistating effects.

Thanks for the oppinnions, no team at this time, I will post in the Team Requests section if its in high demand,

hi, i think your game is a mix from mechwarrior and front mission, if you develop the 3d grfx with interchangeable parts, internal and external view, decent ai for enemy, sure your project will be an intresting work.
I think your tatget is a bit harder, maybe you shold start with a "study" of your game making a small one, more easiest and with less spec.
Then you can reuse what you've learned to make one bigger and more intresting.

Yes, I had planned to start with basic movement, a player, a camera, a set of armor attached as a limb, & some codes that will allow for normal elemental settings & build up from there.

I think I can do the elemental armor pretty easily, but its the way you equip it thats the problem. I would need a complexe system of menu's to allow the player to equip it.

Now that I think about it, its more of a mix between half life, mechwarrior, & front mission.

Well, I gtg to surgery now, I may bbl, depending on how tired I am, & how much pain im in. I will be very tired for this as my mother (who isnt to bright,) gave me an extra does of all of my medication. She thought yesterday was wensday, & today was thursday (as only she would,) & now im groggy.

Well, next time she hovers over me to take my pills, im going to tell her to buzz off. She has a nack for being very anoying about this, & she has another nack to be stupid 24/7.

Thanks for the oppinion,

? sorry, if i've understand, you have to go to surgery, and you take pills, are you seriusly ill???

lol, nah, im not seriously ill. The Surgery is some Teeth removal that they have to cut down pretty far into my jaw (4 wisdom teeth.) The pills are for my disability, I have high funtioning autism, the pills keep me sane.

Well, like I said, its only 30 min until my surgery, so I gtg.

Later,

This game sounds pretty similar to one I am currently working on. Only the conflict is between an all-powerful empire known as the Corporation and a revolutionary force called the Amoc Brotherhood.

Nice idea, but its a huge project. This is the type of thing I expect *real* game companies to take up. Anyways, good luck.

Thanks, I just got back from surgery, & im in no pain.

I do want to try & make something like this with DBPro, & it seems a few people would want to see this type of game made with DB.

@ Helix

That sounds similar to the game Chaser that will be released in the US around the end of August.

@ Everyone

If you want to see this game made, & think it would be pretty cool, I may just have to start a team for it. I have a concept artist (my best friend) who is working on designing the Guards, weapons, conversion parts, & upgrade parts for the game, with full schematics, & a possible modeler.

I guess this game would be in pretty high demand, with the possibility for 7 or 8 expansions in total (one for each continent, & one for space surrounding the earth.)

Ill go post in the team request board for this in just a sec, if you want to help, please do. Since this would be a learning process for me, I probably either wont pay much, or wont pay at all, but if the game is every finished & is sellable, whoever joins will get their share from the total profits.

Thanks for the oppinions all,

i hope now your wisdom teeth going out, your ability to code still remaing at good level!! x-d
