What would Splash Damage do next?


(watsyurdeal) #1

So, let’s for fun, theorize here.

Let’s say, heaven forbid, Dirty Bomb fails and dies out, but from the ashes Splash Damage makes a whole new game from scratch. What do you think it will be like? Class based or Loadout based? What features?

Just go nuts, I’ll have something to post later on.

It’ll be dead.

It will probably be another class based shooter.
Many people like this stuff.

Triple A development type is outdated anyway, “this” kind of development is the future. The development where its free to play and still beta.

sure not many good games came out of that kind of development, but if a game came out from that kind of development, it came out real shiny like Warthunder.

(hell, warthunder content update is probably one of the best, the put out more than 1 new maps for every new version, adding more vehicle each new patch to the already good gameplay.)

If SD want to be really really successful, i say make battlefield copy but with Dirty bomb kind of gameplay (like planetside, but Dirty Bomb)

I really want Dirty Bomb with whole london as the playable area like division.

It would be really cool.

Stop using UE3 and maybe try idTech4?

Obviously, whatever the next project, it’ll either be ET:Wolfenstein or Battlefield styled gameplay. Now what kind of setting? How about Cold War or Vietnam?

EDIT:

Now this can be a VERY BIASED suggestion, which you don’t have to take my advice for it…

Since there’s been a recent trend, of coming back to historical shooters. WWI BF1 from EA and upcoming CoD WWII from Activision…

Maybe SD could make an Old West game?
It could have the weapon variety from Fistful of Frags! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jnpL3Y7tyY
And Movement speed from Smoking Guns! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2z3SQJzyTCA

Again, my personal biased suggestion.

Vietnam is super under-utilised, but Korea is even less. (Is there even a Korean War game?) A modern day ET set in either wouldn’t be too bad I think.

Or SD can go full Blood Dragon esque and ‘remake’ Dirty Bomb but this time in Vietnam War Two or something. Thematically easier to implement some crazy mechanics this way.

Must have been really niche D:

Make Tempo as a single-player game for console and PC but improved gameplay l

basically include every war before-during-and alittle after cold war.

pretty nice, the game also offers countries like Israel

Another remake of ET style gameplay with a different theme. It’s tried and true and they have a good hold on the niche. Never got to play Quake Wars so maybe a new version of that would be nice. Or Unreal Wars, with Skaarj and/or Necris factions.
