Thread: Next chapter idea

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_Brigade

here is a link of one of my favorite unit during the WW2.
I know it's on wiki and there is not always true thing on this but...

I think that Crytek show us that a game engine can make it really nice with snow covered warfare. So I think it would be nice to see that in an incoming chapter for the mod.

If you read well, you will notice that they were a commando unit that was doing guerrila warfare, so I think that would be nice to see a new gametype for multi. As a UT2004 Assault gameplay.

Tell me what you think of that!

Its honestly way to far away for us to plan for such . We have a (beyond) ton more to put into Overlord, including other multiple factions.


Also our gameplay modes for MP will be ones that follow a more realistic premise. Something like Assault is more for an arcade game i.e CoD series or such really.

While I don't make any comments if we will include a certain theatre of operations, we will never know what we end up with, I must say that Guerilla Warfare will not fit into a game. Guerilla is basically a group soldiers patrolling an area and being sneak attacked by some others, then to kill some civilians as revenge.

Personally I think it's basically impossible to create a realistic guerilla battle as the nature of the game means the "regular team" will be expecting it.

Random spawning locations might make some difference but at the end of the day you can't create the true element of surprise which is what guerilla's normally rely heavily on.

That being said I personally like the idea of snow battles partly because CryEngine2 handles that sort of environment so well - I can't comment on what is planned for the future though, so that's just my personal feelings.

I think I've gone too far with my brain!

Right about that, didn't thought about this.

was just speculating some ideas to work for.
Nothing real on paper.

Thank for the replies

I like the idea. We should def include snow levels, as at least 1/3 of the war was fought in snow covered areas. (what..nov--->march)?

And different and unique gametype ideas are always welcome! Keep them coming!

Please don't think we discourage suggestions - we love them
