crap ton of suggestions

[huehuehue]

Heard of this?

flagshipgame.com/

It's basically an RTS in space, but you are inside of the command ship, and it has a fully explorable interior.

(it's also in development)

My question(/idea) is: Will we be able to walk around in the big spaceships in the teasers in Dev Blog 2?

...

also, since i have a wild mind, here are some unit ideas:
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Confuser: confuses enemies into shooting each other.
Guardian: there is only 2 per station and are the ultimate in CEO defense. where mechanoids don't cut it, these guys do.
Goliath: remember the Gigantilator? imagine that, but 10x larger and in SPAAAAAAAAAAACE!(attacks starships and comes out of a massive "bay" in the station)
X-B10 Maruader: a starship that pilots itself. good for swarming.
Y-WRT5 Mortem: gunship designed for AA combat(would this make it an AAA gunship?)
Y-P50 Derringer: troop transport shaped like a manta ray.
X-B10α Sirius: advanced prototype of the Maruader.
Q-RTY Megalodon: HUEG starship made from shipyards.
140-EBY Hunter: wraithlike troop designed to infiltrate bases.
TDX-10 Swarmer: mechanical bugs that launch from the base and do what these buggers do(http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Pistoeka_sabotage_droid)
S.E.D.(Strange-matter Emitter Device): Emits a deadly radiation stream of particles that utterly devastates armies.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Below are suggestions which can be added into EA1 if not EA2.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Planetary Combat

Imagine the original executive assault, but updated and even better.(i.e. ecosystems with wildlife(more on that later), bases similar to Cortex Command's(the building-anywhere-including-underground-and-letting it-form-as it-comes part), air support from large capital ships in orbit(or in the atmosphere or in the battlefield itself), etc.  (feel free to put all this in a later update)
(you can build outposts(and then bases) here too) (space units can help here too)
Units:

9-P30 Hawk: jet fighter that turns into a mech
IX10 Drop Pod: sends crap from orbit
330-P Ragnarok: high level tank
230-RTY Megalodon: Scaled down prototype of the megalodon
RTX Great White: submarine with buttloads of missiles.
RTZ Shark: Battleship with enough firepower to decimate bases.
RTH Terrorizer: Gigantic mech just slightly smaller that the Gigantilator.
Z-AC230 Gunship: An AI gunship designed for surface combat.
ATX Omega: game ending mech about 5x bigger than a Gigantilator.
R.E.D(gRavitational dEstabilizing Device): doomsday weapon that destabilizes gravity on the planet
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Base Destruction
In the past, with EA1, we could destroy doors, turrets, etc.
What if we were able to destroy the base itself?(aside from the headquarters, that'd be overkill)
And not in a simple explosion and then some rubble.
i'm talking something like what you would see in Space Engineers.
for example, 

(this could apply to large spaceships, too)
(does not have to be that detailed)
________________________________________________________________________________________
Ecosystems
These are what i was talking about when i was ranting on Planetary Combat.
Since i'm bored right now, i'll just post some rules for people to make their own biomes for a planet called Sirius:
There MUST BE a glacier(frozen) biome, a volcanic biome, a jungle biome, a "bad" biome(don't know what yet), a cave biome and a swarm biome.
Each biome must have AT LEAST 10-20 creatures for biodiversity.
There MUST BE at least some predators.
The swarm biome MUST BE ALL INSECTS.
Each biomes creatures should be themed with their habitat(i.e. glacier/frozen creatures are white and/or with icy crystals, volcanic creatures should be rocky and/or with lava skin(or something like that), etc.)
I would also prefer if they are large. Not Starcraft 2 large, Supreme Commander (forged alliance) large.
________________________________________________________________________________________
Welp, that's all I've got for now! Feel free to add your own ideas in the comments!(i will post crap about different factions in the game sometime)
Bai!   (added suggestions will be in green like this)

rob? admin? anyone?
why has no one replied yet?

[theDemolisher13]

sometimes it's a bit hard to get people to reply. If you want I can give you some input on what I think about some of your ideas here.

that'd be nice, yeah.
(btw congrats on being the first other person to reply)

[theDemolisher13]

Thanks I was also the 9th person to make a account here. Now the first thing I see going on here is your trying to name everything. Which I guess can work but generally when it comes to ideas you usually just want to get the concept out there and let the game deves worry about all of the little tiny details. I mean this is how they give the game their own style to it. But in this case it allows me to dive straight to what you are talking about so lets get going.

Unites
Confuser: I feel like a good hack bot can do this if they get into the enemy control station
Guardian: I feel like Rob already talked about adding huge security bots for stations in fact give me a sec alright I'm back he did makes such a bot the (Mechanoid) Assembled to protect the CEO and armed to the teeth, the massive robots are designed to repel even the most heavy armed assault forces.
Goliath: So you want a massive Robot in space hmm how is it going to move or did you mean like a massive star ship? If so then you can probably count on Rob adding something of the sort into the game.
X-B10 Maruader: Hmm what do you mean by pilot its self?
Y-WRT5 Mortem: No it does not count as a AA it would count more as AF Anti-Fighter or AS Anti-Spacecraft hmm perhaps I can't say if this is a good or bad idea without knowing more about the game.
Y-P50 Derringer: Hmm no I don't like insects but we will for sure have troop transports of some kind is my guess.
X-B10α Sirius: Yea I just don't know here.
Q-RTY Megalodon: then whats the point goliath?
140-EBY Hunter: Oh like a hacker bot but with armor and guns yea I could see that
TDX-10 Swarmer: Either we would have to make these guys super weak or they could be a tad bit on the over power side
S.E.D.(Strange-matter Emitter Device): You know we're talking about Robot armies here right?

Planetary Combat
I so far from what I seen we're not going to see a lot of that if at all in this game so I'll just move onto the next area. But if Rob confirms it I'll come back and review these ideas.

Base Destruction
Now I could see damaging a base and taking facilities offline and even destroying them but I wouldn't expect it to be anywhere near as pretty as what space engineers can do due to a couple problems. 1. the game is simply to big to go into huge details like that for most computers to handle. 2. that's a lot of development there. Also being able to damage or even destroy parts of a spaceship could be fun I mean homeworld does that and it comes in handy at times.

Ecosystems
True this plays a huge role in the game but since we lack more basic knowledge of the game I can't really give any input here.

The guardians are meant to be a bigger, badder version of the mechanoids. I'll change "automatons" to "mechanoids".
Goliath: So you want a massive Robot in space hmm how is it going to move or did you mean like a massive star ship? If so then you can probably count on Rob adding something of the sort into the game. I was thinking of it moving with a giant jetpack of some sort, though it could move around by spacewalking somehow.
X-B10 Maruader: Hmm what do you mean by pilot its self? As in you can take control of it as a CEO, but there is no room for a robot, also it is smart.
Y-WRT5 Mortem: No it does not count as a AA it would count more as AF Anti-Fighter or AS Anti-Spacecraft hmm perhaps I can't say if this is a good or bad idea without knowing more about the game. The AAA part was a joke.
Y-P50 Derringer: Hmm no I don't like insects but we will for sure have troop transports of some kind is my guess. Manta rays aren't insects.
X-B10α Sirius: Yea I just don't know here. 'Tis an upgrade of the Maruader.
Q-RTY Megalodon: then whats the point goliath? Eh, spaceships are cool. Besides, Goliath is physical attack and costs less than this.
140-EBY Hunter: Oh like a hacker bot but with armor and guns yea I could see that Hacker bots don't have cloaking abilities, but i could make a unit out of what you said.
TDX-10 Swarmer: Either we would have to make these guys super weak or they could be a tad bit on the over power side They wouldn't really do that much damage.
S.E.D.(Strange-matter Emitter Device): You know we're talking about Robot armies here right? Just to add some pizzaz. I mean, we already have the Monolith, which can destroy entire solar systems. The "radiation" i was talking about would be some sort of matter which disintegrates things, making it a "careful-where-you-point-this" scenario.

Planetary Combat
I so far from what I seen we're not going to see a lot of that if at all in this game so I'll just move onto the next area. But if Rob confirms it I'll come back and review these ideas. Understandable.

Tru, tru, but i wasn't trying to say he should put in that much detail.
Ecosystems
True this plays a huge role in the game but since we lack more basic knowledge of the game I can't really give any input here. Also understandable.

my replies to your replies are in green.
btw what do you think of the "walking all around the big ships" part?

[theDemolisher13]

So walking around a large space ship sounds like a fun little detail that could add some gameplay to the game by allowing us to add boarding parties that try and take over enemy ships.

Y-P50 Derringer: Hmm no I don't like insects but we will for sure have troop transports of some kind is my guess. Manta rays aren't insects.
Oh I missed read that as mantis like in Prey mantis. My bad.

[huehuehue]

ok, so 1 person has replied multiple times....

can we get another persons opinion on this?

[huehuehue]

waah-heey, this is the most viewed post on this subforum!
(not bragging, just didn't know that)

[mechslayerone]

All cool ideas but keep the scale of the game in mind, like i doubt we can actually go into the atmosphere of other planets, but ay, Rob will build the game he sees fit

[hayden]

Your idea of making base building the Cortex Command is awesome and would make the game a lot more fun, and making outposts around the map would be a nice touch. but I don't think you can g into planets for EA2 as for EA1 maybe he could add that in the next update.
