Crytek's next series.

Post » Mon Sep 07, 2009 7:54 pm

Just a topic to input your ideas of what Crytek could do for their next series.

Please state your idea then give an example of a level.

So, I will go first.

[removed by tom - this is a nice thread idea but please, think through your ideas for a german games developer before posting them here.]

So what are your guy's ideas?

Not tryin to be ignorant or a jerk or anything but you just have to get over that. It happened. Its a part of history. As a Catholic, I get attacked with statements like"oh you raqe children" or "oh thanks a lot for the crusades" I don't enjoy it but I do ignore it because I know that most Catholics are not like that and that what has happened happened. I know that Germans are not Nazis. I know that you guys regret WWII and are in reality a very nice country. I also know that most Germans in WWII didn't even want to be a part of the Nazi dictatorship but couldn't speak out because of fear. In fact, Germany is very close allies with the U.S. now and they are bailing out other European countries in massive debt. I respect you guys.

But I also love history and wont just forget about WWII. I mean, it was a very interesting war which everyone in the world was a part of. It was a classic story of evil(Hitler) vs. good. There was also a massive amount of progress in the field of technology and manufacturing.

Perhaps a Crytek version of Mass Effect kinda thing? One of the best games ever with the best developer ever? I could only see good results :)

I personally want to play this game:

I guess the quickest way to get an idea of what I mean is Rampage meets Darksiders maybe with a dash of Predator hunt game mode from AVP thrown in for fun.

it would be 3rd person fantasy fighting game with multiple players. I like the idea of having all or most of the characters as beasts rather than classically humanoid. But I do not know if I am keen on magical area effect or projectile attacks . These superhuman beasts and maybe 1 or two classical super humanoids would facilitate environmental destruction as a result of attacks throws, slams etc. I also like the idea that maybe the level is falling apart already as you fight making it much more of dynamic rather than a static environment.

You might have 1 game mode where a team of smaller beasts or humanoids team up to take on 1 larger more powerful beast. But it would need to be innovative in how that would work. Would it work you know like a real situation where you might see 3 or 4 police teaming up to pin down a suspect (1 guy does the hard work to initiate a hold and then a scrum is formed)? Or would it need to be something else or perhaps a myriad of different approaches?

I especially love this dynamic because this is basically hunting as a team which it's what our species evolved to do and so there must be alot of scope for people to really enjoy such a game, if it could be done. Visually of course a fantasy art style would just allow Crytek to go nuts and just create some crazy visuals.

Then maybe whoever has the most points at that time the 1st is defeated then becomes the Big Beast which is how Predator hunt works in AVP.

Yeah I agree with the idea (still like mine better lol) the 0G levels in Crysis were cool but they don't need the rights to descent so why bother getting interplay involved. They could just make a floaty shooter of their own. And whats the one Furmark did in 0G that was also cool.

If Crytek are up for another FPS, which I'm not really sure of, then I think the survival horror genre is good for them because it's still such a young genre, due to technology previously prohibiting computer games from actually being scary. So it's FPS but not FPS anybody is tired of.

But IMO, assuming it can be done, you still can't beat Rampage meets Darksiders meets AVP Predator hunt lol.

I'm speaking as an Englishman here not a German, not that I think this affects the strength of my argument at all I just wanted our German friends to know they are not the only ones who are sick of shooting Nazi's. If an interest in history is the reason for so many modern films and games are currently featuring Nazi's what about zombie Nazi's, Nazi's returning from a secret space station on the moon, Nazi Ghosts, and Space Nazi's?

I postulate that the reason for all these nazi's is nothing to do with history and everything to do with creative stagnation.

Well I actually hate those stupid nazi zombie and all that stuff just to make a buck off of a previous "enemy" in history. But my idea was to take something that Hitler actually had plans for and to do a "what if" situation. I guess its sorta like killzone but not really at the same time.

Why don't you make up a game idea for yourself which is the point of this topic instead of telling me my idea is terrible. Honestly, its something I wanna see cus a I like history and "what if" situations.
