If another 40k FPS comes out, I think it would be best if it was from a Dark Angels perspective in an epic battle against Nids.
-Genre: FPS combined with aspects of heroic horror. (Heroic horror games such as RE4 encourage combat with characters who are quite competent in battle yet are against some horrifying monsters instead of being incompetent in combat like most survival horror games.) With the proper graphics engine, it would be possible to make Nid units look absolutely terrifying, (combined with traditional horror game scare tactics) especially some of the more powerful monsters that would act as boss battles.
-Gameplay: Your character is allowed to use one basic weapon, one special/heavy weapon, one close combat weapon, and (unrealistic but designed for gameplay purposes with Halo inspired rules). Heavy weapons are powerful but you can't move when attacking with them. With each kill, you get experience. When you level up, you can upgrade yourself in a whole bunch of ways, such as getting more max ammo for a particular weapon, better accuracy (targeting reticule system from Rainbow Six would be in play), more health, better attack power in melee, or even at high levels, upgrade to Terminator armor which gives you access to weapons such as the assault cannon. |
