One day I hope to make the ultimate game. But either way, I wanted to assemble a wishlist of what everyone wants in a computer game.

I've read various Freelancer wishlists and they were very helpful. But I wanted more, more, more. Please voice your opinions here. At the very least, gaming companies in search of ideas could use my wishlist site as a reference.

By the way, if anyone has any links to anything like this, please do tell.

Thanks in advance.

you need to create a specific wishlist!! There is no such thing as a generic 'ultamate game'. It is simply impossible! What you need to do is say the wishlist for the ultamate ___________ game (insert genre or sommat else in blank space).

What if you were to incorporate several game engines into one that could satiate the desires for everyone... Well, you could just put what you'd like in various different genres...

Can't do what in a game?

[Carl]

yes you can!

you can have a rpg/action/fps/space sim/flight sim/rts/driving/adventure/ game all in one! you just need to let the player be able to do all of them!

[Carl]

you also need 5 years to develope it, 10 gigs of hard drive space, a bank roll the size of detroit, and 6 different software companies.

Not to mention a new networking system an upgrade in computer technology and an extra 5 years on top of the already stated 5 years... But it can be done!

Your kidding... right? that better be sarcasm or a joke or something....

Force Commander's camera ruined the game (homeworld had the best camera control with a mouse-wheel IMO), X-wing series had poor-ass graphics, Tiberium Sun was the same god damn thing as every last C&C game.... and I have no knoledge of ST games...



o wait... that was a joke... hahaha

 I'm glad you found it vads, didn't want to have to say anything i'd regret.

Every particle in the Ultimate Game™ should be rendered and interact with all other particle according the laws of physics. It should have support for direct neural interfacing with the character control engine and should be easily upgradeable to support advances in temporal, quantum and astro physics as well as a redundant engine to handle any simulations of subspace or hyperspace physics.

Bah, all that matters is graphics and realism!!!!!!!!!!!11112

[aldo_14]

I just want a fully realistic footie game - player voices & expressions,  realisitc mud on pitch & strips, dynamic lighting, full lip synch, being able to give a half-time bollocking to yer dodgy centre half, multiple motion captures for random animations (more realistic movement), realistic hair effects & reflections (i.e. off the back of Franck Lebouef's head as he slips and falls, gfting a goal), names on back of the shirt, small boys in the park, goalposts for jerseys....sorry, where was I?

Oh well, you get the idea

[Dark_4ce]

This is my idea of the ULTIMATE game... Its intially an FPS with puzzle and RPG elements. You basically create you're character into what you want him to be. So he can be practically anything, a cop, a soldier, a drug addict, a normal joe, anything. And theres this WHOLE Galaxy for you to explore in GLORIOUS 3D! So when you rise up in the game, get promoted, get cash, you buy cars, and even space vehicles! So now its more like a space simulator with all this action happening in space AND the atmosphere! but it doesen't end there, you could gain even more rank, run for president and even begin to build you're own colonies on other planets, so it turns into a sim city/civilaztion game with real time politics ala Node War style, however all the battles that take place are done by other online players who can control large ships like Homeworld/IG 3 or singular fighters like Freespace. Then if there battles on the ground, its back to the FPS aspect again when you're a soldier. Then players who are generals, play it as a tactical game with tactical readouts, however the soldiers he's sending to war are REAL players too!

But thats all for the action oriented. You could be normal Joe owning a hot dog stand or even a night club as players go there to chat with other players and basically hang out. Or you could be a detective solving a case of murder! All sotry lines and plots that take place on a planet and in a city could be moderated by some sort of dungeon master, while the more galactic scale conflicts are not in a sence controlled, other than the waring/politicising factions.

Think about it... you're a top assassin and the president of you're nation hires you to kill the general of the enemy. So you take you're fighter, fly to the enemy base. Gather information from clubs, sneak into the base, take out a few guards, then assasinate the general! It would be a whole other world! A microcosm!

However this would require ****LOADS of people to play and even more for NPCs. Not to mention the computing power and bandwidth... But its out there... This game will come one day... Oh yes.. It will come!

RTS mit active weather mit infantry und armored mix, ultrarealistic properties such as effect of morale on troop, lots and lots of cool weapons, near-unlimited modding properties. Oh, and 3D non-linear with a plot that doesn't suck.
