Ideas for new systems

[Anonymous]

As some of you may have read on the forum about Draconis and the other systems that have been thought up, some of the GM's thought it would be a good idea for you pilots on the game to come up with new and exciting concepts which any of you might like the idea of seeing in these systems.

So if you can think of anything exciting and imaginitive then list them here

So get those creative idea's coming.

well you have missed the asteroid belt in sol, could be fun to add a ring of asteroids in a system that has always same distance to travel.

ooh... an interesting thread... wait till tommorrow when i can spend time on a post, i have LOADS of ideas for this

Well as a T-GM i have had pilots come to me on both the GM-Support chat as well as private chat about things they would like to see, even just the thought of something new, so we thought it be a good idea to have some input from you guys and gals who play the game

Ok, here are some map ideas,

in pirate galaxy the most maps are always the same, now they have added hight in sol. but still they are a bit the same.

Maybe you could make a really big map, 4 timesthe normal size, you could have sight in a circel that fits in the side panel and that the map changes if you flew across it.

Obstacels could be fun, and that you could shoot it but only if you were strong enough, because the obstacel you were shooting repaired himself what made it impossible to damage, unless you have high firepower.
This could create 2 sides of the map, 1 that you have to fight for and one that is accesseble for everyone, players that already have shot it down can't help others with it.

Also i would like tunnels and brigdes, were you could cross another flypath so you don't have a limitted map.

ok, end of my map ideas.

Another idea:

Maybe a split faction, you can only help your own faction, like the smugglers and the colonials, but now on same rank,
maybe the Nationalists and the Revolutionaries. Both have another line of missions. You can always go for the other faction but then you have to do all missions again and can't use the weapons from this faction, so you have to destroy them or sell them.

I will keep this brief....

Scenery which hurts you:

For example, if you made a planet really close to the sun and 1 really far away then you could have areas of the planet which slowly sap your health and then safe spots. Could be linked to engine performance, ie: engine overheats and your ship blows up, engine gets to cold and your ship blows up.

You could even have an engine temperature bar...

Underwater planet: self explanitory

I would like to see the icey and firey planets again, vega was really the only system that had them as story planets...

Or, a system that orbits a black hole or a star that is going to go supernova, or a neutron star... that would be cool.

or an entirely artificial planet, that has no natural features....

just a few of many ^^

you mean a cooler and dynamic background?

ok, let's count what planets are what:

Icey planets: Aurora, Iga (Earth?)
Alien Plants planets: Lyris, Goya (baumar?)
Vulcanic Planets: Axiom, Dante, Remo, Venus
Imagination Planets: Lustra, Draconis 1
Asteroids: Junkyard, Technatoria, Old Battlefield (draconis)
City planets: CC and Ob
Old Civilitation: Desai, Cosmo
Factory/Mining Planets: Molikar, Mars (lustra)
Gas-giants: Collosus, Saturn, Jupiter, (Uranus, Neptune)
Left-over: Terasa, The Moon, Mercury

Kalabesh?

Kalabesh?

lol, mining/desert

Just remember that Draconis has been planned a long time, and is under construction/creation, so I doubt there will be any ideas implemented in such a late state as now.

But maybe there might be some openings to introduce still, if idea is superb, and easy to implement, and what doesn't request any new big codings nor changes to what has already been introduced and is under creation.

but is it true that PG is planned from the beginning till draconis? Cause if it's true that i have suggested to add sirius this year then they couldn't also made a story for that, what would make it open for idea's.

Ok,
1, lets take things to the next notch, Factions(as mentioned before), a non-dominant mantis, fraction ship appearence differences (it would be lame for all the ships in every fraction to look the same) and maybe possible minor weaknesses and strenths(such as 5% more damage but 10% less armor, that kinda thing). A post-draconis system should be mainly PvP with NPC's becoming a minority.

The fraction Idea can be as simple or complec as wanted. You can go all the way with being able to buy "harvesters" to gather the resources of the planet and watch towers. Or as simple as just having fractions (which would not be that fun).

New Generation Mantis

Ok, the mantis are a bit old and ugly if you ask me. Most mantis look like eachother etc.

Maybe it would be cool to make a totally new generation mantis that look better and have new weapons or changed weapons. The avenger/assasins for example have blaster bp and aim scramber in 4 systems. the harvesters are even from vega (ofcourse sol is differant).

It could be fun to make a ressurector that drops the materializer and blaster. :mrorange:

Aye, wouldnt it be cool to have harvesters with Attack Drones with Sniper Blasters for Intercepters :mrorange:

yes, that would be cool

Definitely think new mantis designs would be a good thing

how about a new mantis storm commander (or any ship type for that reason)...we steal their tech and adapt it for our needs....why would they not capture ship types and warp them and the pilots to their dastardly ways ship design could be a warped design of our ship types; ship equipment would be the same as ours....but better still they are randomly generated much in the way that cry or bp drops are....

imagine taking on a r90 pyro swarm and one dies and regenerates as a storm commander...rockets,perf,thermo and blaster ready to spoil your mission and your paintwork...worse still...a bunch of detos who're stubborn enough already and one spawns a warp tank

Bad

edit: run away!!!!

Haha yea but still, mantis are getting old in my opinion, we need to move on to uncharted waters. PvP FvF CvC etc.

I can imagine a post-dominate Mantis world with 5 Fractions(1 for each system? xD) battling for control of the Human worlds, the Mantis as a Minority remain in Draconis in their vast fortresses hiding and waiting for a chance for revenge...

Ok, problem is what i think that there are only gonna be mantis untill Lagrange Singularity. I have read on the wiki that there is gonna be a race, the methanoids, these have lived on Tau Ceti IV now occupied by mantis ....

Ok then they run and hide in a different system
