Re: A game I would like...

In Response To: A game I would like... (bluerunner)


: Did you ever play Ground Control ? It was a real time tactical instead of a
: RTS. You had limited number of units and reinforcements and there was no
: base building or economy. The two factions in it are very similar to the
: UNSC and Covenant. One side had tanks and vehicles that looked like UNSC
: vehicles, and even had suped up armored infantry. The other side had
: hovering tanks that fired plasma weapons and were religiously motivated.
: The single player focused on the two sides fighting over ancient
: technology from a mysterious alien race (sound familiar?).

: The cool thing with it was that the camera could fly anywhere. You could fly
: way up over the battlefield (some of which were huge), or you could fly
: down to eye level with your infantry. You only saw enemy units that were
: within line of sight of your units. Units that held high ground got a
: bonus over units below them. Tanks were armored better in front than in
: back, which gave incentives for flanking the enemy. Infantry got stealth
: bonuses and could sneak through trees and bushes to set up ambushes. It
: was really fun.

: If you google it, it's been put online for free by the publisher.

: Anyway, I would love to see a Halo strategy game like that. Something that's
: all about the fighting and doesn't have much to do with base building,
: tech trees, or economy.

I haven't played it yet but that does sound kinda like what I was imagining. A Halo + Myth combo might be sweet, too.
