I just had this brilliant idea on how GPG could make SC good again.

I'll start with the races,

The Illuminate just randomly got whiped out, and the Cybran and UEF merged into an alliance.
but some years a bloody civil war started that seperated the Cybran (now called Eroc) and the UEF (now called Mra).

Now the units,

In this game there will be alot more units, every unit will have there own importent role,
you will also have 3 Tiers of units.
after the third one you will get a special kind on hero unit.

(I'm still thinking about how they should look but i think the old TA style would do the trick)

Now the maps,

The maps will be huge, but there will also be small 1v1 maps,
some of the maps will also alow you to build these mass collecters everywhere you want. (even underwater).

The music will also be done by jeremy soule, and will have that old TA style.


Tell me if I forgot something and i'll add it.

So, basically, you want to destroy the iconic factions of the game. For the rest you dont really know except you want 3 tiers which is the worst flaw in the game.

If this is actually a serious attempt, try harder.

Teams named Mra and Eroc, and you think he is serious?

Backwards my friend.

Damn didnt see that troll...

Well I was gonna post a "**** you troll" but then thought I'd try to be considerate this time... Bit me in the *** yet again. Back to Elitist Neph I guess.

No... Just...No...

And that's when I knew.

Im not surprised by terrible spelling anymore. This is the internet after all. Most people unfortunately dont bother with spelling.

Looking at you, Reddev

Oh I hear ya. Especially grammar. But when it comes to major points of the game, such as faction names, I don't think a true fan would make that mistake.

Believe me Ive seen worse ideas that are actually serious. You dont read the suggestions section much do you? It really makes me giggle sometimes.

Option 3: [x]

What if they could add an FPS mode, this would double the sales.
And also make it somewhat more easier for us casual gamers.

That would also quadruple the cost. All in all, not worth it. FPS players won't flock to an RTS/FPS hybrid, RTS players would complain about development resources wasted on an FPS mode, and an FPS mode would be mediocre unless extreme amounts of money and time were spent on it. Economically, adding an FPS mode would simply not make sense even if it was done well.

Thats why there is Natural Selection 2.

YES! NS2!

If you haven't heard of it go to unknownworlds.org/ns2

A great in developement indie game based off the very popular Half-Life mod of the same name, and from the same team leaders. Good mix of RTS/FPS hybrid, though they are focused more on the FPS side for now.

They are saying summer release, but I would wager they will release on their 11th anniversary on Hallowe'en night.

Purchase at their store, download thru Steam, pre-purchasing the game gives you immediate acces to the beta (though you need a beast of a computer to play the beta well).

how about more short options, perhaps where you start suddenly at a generated multiplayer or not map etc, and then play a bit and swap for points more faster too
