first and foremost i have to say english isnt my first language, so sry for my probably bad english..
i have thought and been daydreaming about this "game" for a couple of weeks now, and really think it would be a success! tho it might be quite hard and expensive to create.. so, a guy like me who has no skill of creating games, no contacts or no money etc etc will have a huge "problem" to make this game-idea to become reality.. but, i can at least write my idea down on a forum.. =)
the idea is to take some good stuff from different games and mix them up together, as probobly many ppl have thought about sometimes, and put them in a tv-show theme..
these games is, and what i would use in the "game of my dreams";
Jagged Alliance Back in Action - would use the gameplay (plan and go tactics with guard mode in the line of sight) and move/scout areas
X-Com Enemy Unknown - would use the base building and the researching idea with the send out squads to territory
Dragon Age series - would use the interact(? talk to, talk between) with/between companions and the quest from ppl around the world and the charecter creation
Mass Effect 3 (havnt played ME1 or ME2 sry) - would use the interact with ppl and the idea to scout space around planets and travel by spaceship from planet to planet..
i would put this stuff in a Stargate SG1/Stargate Atlantis/ Terra Nova (tv series) theme..
if you never heard about any game, just youtube its gameplay.. =)
the story;
The Stargate people have found an empty base in a new galaxy they can travel to (example Atlantis, like in Stargate Atlantis) and they want to send an expedition there to see what awesome stuff (tecnology and ****) they can discover in that galaxy. a lot of people want this amazing opportunity to travel across the universe but it has a catch making the choise difficult; the people who join the expedition, mabye cant return to Earth! (from Terra Nova) and they dont know what to expect in the new galaxy, is there any vegetation on the planet so they can gain food and water or will they starv after they have no more supply? will there be enemies or any other living things?
Earth assembly a group of people skilled in a lot of different areas; scientist, engineers, doctors and military (mabye some other useful staff) and then they "call" the new destination and send people through the stargate - boom, they are out in the new galaxy and sees the base in a distance from the stargate... with no resistance they can establish at their new home.. they have also found a note with some marks on it, who might be some gate adresses in this galaxy..
the planet they now live on cant call earth in some way so they are stuck here, and it seems impossible to gather food.. so they have to try these gate adresses to see if they can find a planet who they can get food somehow..
about the game; (info)
The expedition needs to somehow refill their food supplies over time, scout for materials and tecnoligy so they can be able to return to Earth in the future and defend themself if there are enemies around the planet/galaxy.. the game would have a lot of planets with a lot of bases, farms, outposts and towns on each.. some farms/towns will be occupied with people with low level tecnology and you can offer protection from the evil who usually raids them in excange for food, and you can train them to fight for you (from Jagged Alliance).. some outpost will be empty for you to take over and send troops to hold them (with a population cap) and scout for enemies others will be oocupied by an evil enemy race.. troops starts with level 1 and will get XP and improve to a higher level when surviving an attack from enemies and be better to hold your territories (from Jagged Alliance) troops will only be used to defend.. if your squad is resting at a base etc you will have to help defending it..
Enemies will as you might understand now defend and try to retake their bases/outposts/farms across the planets all over the galaxy (from Jagged Alliance) and even try to defeat you at your new HQ when they now of your existens in this galaxy and they will also fight eachother (multiply enemy races) for territory.. you can find "companions" across the galaxy from mixed alien races (some looks like humans, some doesnt) who might fight for you with mixed skill in battle depending on their races (from Dragon Age/Mass Effect and Stargate SG1/Atlantis) when conquered an area or when killing an enemy you will find loot in the area or from loot enemies dropped, loot who might be guns, ammunition and other stuff who you can research and be able to build new stuff in your base like spaceships, new buildings or new weapons/ammunition.. (from X-Com) the spaceship you can scout space for planets with stargate or space bases you can attack or just raid/search for companions to rescue (from Mass Effect) mabye even some space battles?
A squads can be filled with 1-6 people who have different skills; Strength, Agility, Dexterity, and have different skills in weapons/items.. some will have for example; assault rifle - they prefer this gun and get bonus to accuracy others will be experts with assault rifle - higher accuracy bonus (from Jagged Alliance)
the player will be able to create one personel who can join the expedition, who will be availible to join a squad and you will be able to control up to four squads who can attack an area together or on different places/planets, not at the same time tho, you will play as a commander (from Jagged Alliance)
example of enemy races; Wraith (SG A), Goa'uld (SG1), Ori (SG1), Genii (SG A), Replikators (SG1/SG A) mabye some other enemies as well?
well, something like that is what i dream about anyway...
