Games "If they made this" wishlist
Posted: Tue Sep 24, 2019 4:18 pm
Games I wish they'd make:
Voyager: Elite Force II (retcon the TNG-focused EF2 out of existence), fully-realized internals for all decks that are all seamlessly built on the same 'map', using code that lets the computer load on-the-fly, which some MAPPERS actually did manage to do without having to modify Elite Force II. However, load-delays on hardware always made this noticable.
We'd play the role, once more, of Alex Munro, of male or female gender, have a Love Interest in the form of Telsia (for M or F Munro), And fully go 'Alternate Timeline' by showing Harry getting promoted, while still in the Delta Quadrant. the big Plot of the game could actually be around the idea that they avoided the fate of the crew in Season 7's Workforce, so their adventures are running parallel - even perhaps in the opening act, set up that because Hazard Team weren't on the ship, but dealing with something else...
Deep Space Nine: Dominion Wars remake... but in that it's... Star Trek Deep Space Nine: Bridge Commander II.
Storyline: You play as JADZIA DAX, during her stint in command of the Defiant before DS9 was retaken. You have command of the Defiant, and basically add in some management stuff, but otherwise its limited FPS stuff, but Bridge Commander otherwise. Sisko is the one who gives the mission briefings, and you have the "fleet management" of requisitioning additional ships from a limited pool, but taking too many could mean "offscreen" missions fail and those ships aren't available afterwards... so limiting your own forces is better on the long run, but makes each mission harder, but not as much as getting to a late-game mission with only a ship or two left from the pool... If the Defiant is too damaged, you can transfer to one of the other ships in your fleet (sort of like how I kind of remember the TMP era Starfleet Command game?)
Playable classes in Single Player include Defiant, Akira, Excelsior and Nebula. Also, Klingon ships sometimes available in the pool, all three classes playable: B'rel, K'Tinga, Vorcha. Non-playable that appear: Miranda, Sovereign, Negh'var.
In Multiplayer, we'd have Multiple Bridges, some that vary themselves based on your selected ship (Kind of like how the TNG Ent-D Battle Bridge was adapted for loads of other ships etc), some ship-specific like the Defiant, Intrepid and Sovereign bridges being Defiant, Intrepid and Sovereign classes-only. Much wider selection of ships to control. (ALL kitbashes of the Dom war included)
Battles aren't 1 versus 3 or 4, more like 10 to 20 versus 50 plus. (my PC at the time used to struggle at this level... when Bridge Commander was relatively new. On current 4-core-and-up computers? hell, AMD high-core-count could shine here!)
Armada III. Set in the 25th Century, and the Dominion are coming back. NO. BORG.
An 'Adventure' game for TNG that's basically mostly a new cast on the Ent-E, no 'big stakes', explory and stuff. PIcard is retired, Riker and troi are still happy on the Titan. the captain? Mr Reading Rainbow, GEORDI LAFORGE.
And a little "five minute mobile" game called "Kill the JJVERSE".
... wait sorry I-... Damn I can't delete that, sorry about that, my biasses are showing.
