hey, me and my friend eric are making a game based on the air fights of halo/halo2. We were guna make the title UNSC basic or if you have n e sick ideas send um to us or post, basicaly the game is about building and designing your own ships from sumthing small. you start off as anything you want to be in the ranks(ie: captain, crewman,marine,first mate) or w/e the ships use. you then get a certain amount of money (which is quite large) to make a ship of your choice, while making the ship you decise wat guns you want, who you want on your ship, how big the slip space generators are excetra. you can chose to make a battle ship a command ship n e thing. but so far thats all we have and if you have any ideas telll us. ttyl

Hi lol, Pre-Order, we are currently workin on a 10 min demo. we just started. Its not like Longswords and stuff like that. Its like Frigates, and Cruisers, Destroyers, Carriers, Cradles and so on. like deep space Naval Warfare.

:::: These are our ideas so Far:

UNSC Basic

:::: ***Bungie - please help !?***

- Make your own ship with limited money

- Hire/train a crew

- pick a rank

- Select ship purpose

- Create a Unique name for ship

- Fight enemy ships to earn $

- Earn new parts/weapons by killing enemy ships

- if your ship is hit below half health you must get it fixed

- you can create a small task force for your ship

- if you have enough $ you can build more ships

- Later on in you ‘Career’ you can command a fleet

- Ships Get old so they need maintenance!

- 2 types of game play – Free Flight, Missions

- Free flight is flying and attacking covenant for fun

- Missions is main game with levels and missions to perform

:::: Our Crew is

Eric= Driector/Project Lead
Nick= Director/Project Lead
Jordan= Artist
Tyler= Demo 3D Modeler
Alex= Helper/Organization

Some help from bungie is always appreciated...

here is what we have so far - a new Crew member gave us the main idea:: check it out::


**UNSC Basic**

::::****Bungie help??****

- Make your own ship with limited money

- Hire/train a crew

- pick a rank

- Select ship purpose

- Create a Unique name for ship

- Fight enemy ships to earn $

- Earn new parts/weapons by killing enemy ships

- if your ship is hit below half health you must get it fixed

- you can create a small task force for your ship

- if you have enough $ you can build more ships

- Later on in you ‘Career’ you can command a fleet

- Ships Get old so they need maintenance!

- 2 types of game play – Free Flight, Missions

- Free flight is flying and attacking covenant for fun

- Missions is main game with levels and missions to perform


** MAIN IDEA** (so far)

We will let the humans have the super plasma turrets if they overtake a covenant ship if they have a shipbaord AI cause of cortana when she made them more efficent. If you have read the books.

We will make sure they have Super mac guns.

Make heavy and light mac rounds for ship to ship combat.

The ships will be able to have archer pods A-Z with i believe 26 rouns in each totaling to ALOT of millisles.

Each UNSC vessel have i believe its Shura ( I think ) 3 nuclear warheads.

The ships will have protocols take into affect such as you cant jump directly to earth you must destroy shipboard AI is destruction is immient.

Have at least 1 spartan on board just for boarding action.

We will Kind of include actual halo in it.

We will have deployable Longsword pilots/Small tactical forces.

**Levels/Missions**

Level one- War is Imminent – Build your ship and hire your crew. Train them. You get use to the feel of the game, and you learn the views. There will be 2 views: Outside and Captains Seat. Outside will be rear view/side views of flying. Captains seat is like the real thing: There are lots of buttons with many different purposes, here are some of them: Pressurize Cabins, General Alarm, Cole Protocol ALPHA and OMEGA etc…

Level two- still workin on it

See I had an idea just like that a while ago but I had a MMORPG in mind where you can get bounties on you ship for doing wrong things and you could hunt down people who have bounties on their ships and get the bounty money and you can buy different stations for your ship where you can pick bewteen crewmembers and security where security has a first person view and crew do important things around the ship it would be like morrowind in space with ships and guns. sorry for the spelling i was in a hurry

ours is mainly based on Deep Space Naval Warfare

You do know that if bungie actually thought this was a good idea they'd pop one out, and it would be 100 times as good as yours, and I'm not saying this to offend you. I just doubt that Bungie could be of much help to you.

Nonono. Each archer missle pod contains one Archer missle. 26 missles, 26 letter? See?

How about a mission from when the UNSC was battling pirates and rebels. Also, is the game going to let you control/build covenant ships? In this game how large will the levels be, for example would it just be around one planet or an entire solar system?

Are you using an existing game engine or are you doing everything from scratch?
