| Summary | 0011356: Idea for AI War sequel (or expansion) | ||||
| Description | I thought it might be interesting to follow through on the strategy push that started with AIWar and now encompasses Skyward Collapse. The idea is a reversal of AIWar, in that the player gets to play the AI. With the multiple 'bots' representing the human federations at the beginning of the initial conflict, ie, before the humans actually lost the war. So somewhere between Exodus of the Machine and AI War. :) My amateurs guess is you keep the same game, just reverse the art and name assets, so what appears as the 'AI' now will become the machine/bot 'human federations' and the player controlled ships and types will be the smaller, hoping to expand AI. If you tone down the 'bots' then you might of course have 4 or more human federations attacking at the same time. I think what might make this unique from how AI War is currently structured, is that the player, playing the AI, can 'ONLY' see the human federations, as they 'trip' the AI Progress meter up above the critical threshold. Giving the player only a 'window' to see where opponents are coming from. Possibly missing adjacent worlds or 'traps' set by the federations to pull the AI in and annihilate them. This 'incomplete' window of vision to see the enemy, as well as some limited kill everything fleets for the AI (perhaps only available if the AI manages to take xx worlds while fending off the human federations) might make an interesting twist to the AI War story. Just my opinion of course, but this whole idea came out of my sudden thought of playing the AI instead of the humans. The rest was an idea to make it different and fun. Anyway, thank you for listening, Sincerely, Teal | ||||
