I AM DRUNK AND THINK I HAVE REALLY GOOD IDEAS ABOUT VIDEO GAMES AND HOW TO FIX BAD VIDEO GAMES

TELL ME YOUR IDEAS ON VIDEO GAMES SO I CAN TELL YOU WHY THEY'RE BAD

Cool story, Chad.

In my own home, mind you

With wine

just one bottle because I am a lightweight

nice try, nodev, you're not getting us to do your work for free.

What if they pay in hotpockets?

Nodev? I'm genuinely curious, I've not been as active in these woods or /agd/ for a while. Is it like pic related where they constantly spam the same retarded shit?

Okay mail me a small amount to begin with so I know you're legit. I live at 13 Khanokh St,
Tel Aviv-Yafo.

Then just lurk the /agdg/ thread, nigger.

A deathmatch-style game where it drops you in a town or city, and you have to fucking kill each other with whatever you can find. Every match has a few hundred people, and everybody gets only one life. You beat each other to death with rocks and shit, and can also destruct objects to use as weapons (like breaking apart a chair to use the pieces as weapons). You can enter every building, and buildings are also completely destructible (you could cause explosions with gas leaks and such).
Occasionally, somebody might find a gun stashed away somewhere, in which case everybody will have to watch out for them or try to get the drop on them, because real-life gun rules apply, and you can die from very few shots (and a shot to the heart, neck, etc, are instant death; a shot to a major artery will make you bleed out without applying a tourniquet or bandage, which won't necessarily fix the wound, but will slow death down).

Essentially, it's a deathmatch shooter game where "look out, he's got a gun!" is an honest phrase and not a joke.

I'VE BEEN FOUND OUT


Sounds like a good idea

BUT WHERE IS THE VIDEO GAME

If you form your idea from the perspective of "well this is what happens and this is the setting, and…" then it's still not an interesting GAME. Might be cool as a setting itself (Old America is really not used in media ever, I can only think of VVitch), but as a game it might as well be a walking simulator with traces of ideas but no real mechanics behind them.

How does the player interact in this world?

What abilities can the player character have?

What ways can players investigate? Will it be "shiny object you have to search for", and therefore turn into a "Where's Waldo" hunt for shiny objects a-la lazy indie walking simulators, or will you go through tons of mundane objects and find something that DOESN'T FUCKING SHINE but reasonably shouldn't be there?

an actual game about taking pantyshots, camo index and all that shit, you get points for the amount of panty in the shot, its not easy at all since girls have different patterns and react to stuff around. But you can also distract them and manipulate the enviroment to reveal their underwear.
Havent thought about a story or game progression, maybe aliens threatened to destroy earth unless you provide them with increasing amounts of upskirt pics

A capture-the-flag style game, but where you play as squirrels. You have full squirrel range-of-motion, and have to protect your nuts from the other squirrels while trying to steal their nuts.
You can also move your own nuts, to try to hide them or make them harder to get to. Knocking other squirrels out of trees is great fun.

Mite b cool

SO IT'S EVERY MULTIPLAYER VIDEO GAME C CONGRATULATIONS

Sounds good BUT YOU NEED A GOOD ENGINE TO DO THIS THIS IS NOT EASY

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE DO YOU JUST SPECTATE UNTIL THE 10 HOUR LONG MATCH IS DONE BECAUSE SOME FAGGOT CAMPS IN ONE SPOT WHILE 3 OTHER FAGGOTS BAND TOGETHER TO FIND THE MYSTICAL HIDING FAGGOT

Even more engine specific. Environment destruction is not as easy as you think, especially if you don't want it to be that shitty jurassic park

I like the idea of literally being able to use ANYTHING in the environment, fucking annoying when you're in a huge city and all you have to use is what the game SPECIFICALLY provides for you (IE: guns), beating niggers with chairs should be A Thing in vidya

SEE ABOVE
Sounds good, but you need the engine to do it

VOXELS ARE GOOD

SOUNDS GOOD IN THEORY

but balance would become an issue

yes, exact same loadouts is shit and boring, but guns vs sticks and stones is like Armyguy vs Space Death Laser you stupid fuck, that's not fun unless you can REALLY, REALLY even the odds through methods you'd have to use IRL if you were literally disarmed (using poop-infused spikes to disease people a-la vietcong).

Here is my idea

it is fun to play

A game like this is only as good as its immersion

You need to be able to fully simulate seemingly irrelevent factors like traffic, onlookers, schedules, etc

It's why Skyrim modding is so popular- despite it being dogshit as a game, it's porn mod heaven due to fuckloads of baked-in features that are at least 1/128ths more immersive than shitty hentai flash games

SEE: CARMACK ON STORY IN VIDYA

ESPECIALLY APLICABLE IN VIDYA PORN

Thjis is just stupid enough to work, though

WhaT the FUCK is werong with you

I'm ideaguying, you faggot. I didn't think this shit out, it's the first thing that came to my head. I'm not saying any of this is easy, and I don't know shit about engines.

You join another match because you're dead and that match isn't for you anymore. Good game, you died, now fuck off. Or watch the rest of the match if you give a shit, but you still died.

Not "guns vs sticks and stones", more like "1 guy has a gun with maybe 6 bullets and the other hundred guys have sticks and stones". guns are rare enough there may only be one or two in every map, and it's not guaranteed that anybody will even find the ones that are there. Guns are powerful, but rare, and being a gun makes you an easy target for anybody who wants to try to kill you from behind (or in an ad-hoc gang) and get that gun.

Nigger you asked about an idea of a game, not an entire fleshed out project.

The point is to push you to refine your ideas, you faggotry fondue

That makes sense. Hopefully entire playerbase isn't in one match, though, otherwise it becomes lawbreakers 2.0

This would be a sincerely interesting social experiment, because I feel too often people let one single person with a gun take over and hijack planes and shit when they could easily overpower some dumb faggot if they put their mind to it

I like the idea of unintented yet moderately predicted gameplay like gangs forming, especially anti-gun gangs or the like. Imagine a gang that kills gun users just so they can trash the gun or safeguard it so no one else can use it.

Even better if it's set in Japan and said gang is the literal Yakuza with funky pompadours and shit

AND I SAID I'D TELL YOU WHY THEY'RE BAD

Though see previous post, you should always refine your ideas until you have a true game on your hands

OK
I'LL GIVE YOU 20

this man understands the Noosphere

What if you spawned players in small-ish groups, randomized of course. Would it make gangs more likely to form?

This was never tried, you absolute madman.

Here's an idea if you're after them Twitch streamers: the game detects if you're running recording software simultaneously with the game and adjusts certain items' drop rates accordingly. Now that would be next-gen streamer bait.

No.
WOT IF MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA WUZ MOAR LIKE STARSHIP TROOPERS

Your idea is already an entire genre, kiddo.

you better figure out some way to properly randomize that shit, else you're gonna have some serious spawn-camping

Let's get rid of the steaming pile of shit that are video games. That's the only fix they need.

RPG adventure game in a modern-age Lovecraftian universe. All the actual action happens in dreams and nightmares, where the MC is forced to explore the Sunken City of R'lyeh, fighting off nightmarish creatures and abominations like the Deep Ones.

The game actively fucks with you, a la Eternal Darkness-style lapses in sanity that become progressively worse and more common as the game continues. The MC is an artist or an art student predisposed to bouts of neuroses and anxiety. She ecause women are more prone to non-violent neurosis begins having these recurring nightmares and hallucinations after beginning research into an 'occult relic' for a gallery project, deciding to use Cthulhu-inspired imagery as inspiration, and the entire game revolves around her slow, inevitable descent into insanity that alienates her from friends, isolated her from society, and results in either suicide or commitment to an asylum.

Combat mechanics are based around runes and symbols hidden throughout the dreamscape, taken directly from the Necronomicon. Many are filled or only required for puzzles, but a number will directly be used for combat against the nightmares.

Also a grill because the Deep Ones are rapey, which is more nightmare fuel if you lose all your health against one of them than just being killed.

Sage for doubleposting.

Skyrim wouldn't be better if it was like Morrowind. Skyrim would be better if it was like Oblivion and Morrowind. And it dropped the shitty setting and just rolled with something completely generic, specifically Forgotten Realms.

OP, if you're still here and still conscious, I have way too many ideas than I know what to do with. Since some of them I feel like I actually have a chance at making, I figure I'll start with the one that I probably won't make in my lifetime.

It's a multiplayer FPS, with options for either regular or team deathmatch, capture the flag, classic Quake/Halo stuff. No classes or anything, everyone starts with the same loadout and there's different weapons scattered around the map.
The main draw of the game is that there's some kind of Lovecrafty cosmic horror inside all the maps, and a basic sanity meter attached to every player. You lose some san from killing other players, a little more from seeing or hearing spooky stuff, and the most from seeing actual monsters. Now, your sanity is tiered, and as it drops to each tier, you lose some max health in exchange for a different power. First tiers are shit like being able to see hidden enemies, hold more guns at once, walk on other surfaces, and eventually you start getting actual horror powers like tentacle arms and blood lasers - when san hits rock bottom, you turn into a big ol' monster. When you die, you respawn with max sanity, and then the cycle continues.


How… how many people are this? Is it one person at Digipen and one person at U of Cali? Why do I want to punch all of them in the throat? Why do I want to punch them in the throat for reasons other than the fact that they went to game design school?

Fuck off, normal. Don't you have a straight edge christian music concern to go to?

This is a Christian board, so Christian values apply. Sorry that you're so empty and devoid of substance that you have to drink in order to be able to talk to people. Sad!

nice try akmed , back to your goat fucking and dreaming about destroying the west while your wife sucks kafir dick to make ends meet for the family
