I was in school today and got bored and things started poping into my mind... What if we made a RPG of PRMM for fun. For example, The US beats MEC on Gulf of Omen and then the story advances to strike of karkand and then so on and so on. But it would be cooler if custom maps were made, its a premature idea, anything think its any good?

RPGs suck, a MMOFPS would be freaking awesome though!

It's already been done. But you gotta pay to play which kinda sucks.

That's not a MMOFPS, it's a bunch of guys who pretend they're actually having a real war, and use existing maps to represent certain areas. I'm talking about truly massive map with thousands of players on at one time, on one server.

No, I think he means like a campaign style.

id love to see something along those lines, although, i dont think i really understand how it would work, it seems like it would be horribly horribly unorganised.

Yah, But if done right would be awesome. We can have some kick butt mappers make some sweet custom maps based on who wins!

We'll have to see how moddable Enemy Territory: Quake Wars will be. Graphically it's tops and looks like it will have a wide range of gameplay.

Well there is "Huxley" that will be a bit in the likes of that (allthought more SF then reality) but not much info is out yet, but it could be promising. (at least by opening the way like UltimaOnline did)

I don't like "levelling up" RPGs like Final Fantasy, but i'm a huge fan of Role Playing, its cool.

Too slow-paced, boring, and lame. Won't fit in well with a war game.

Well, I don't really mind a RPG, but it would have to be designed to combine tactics and action really well. Like maybe have an administration that orchestrates the war, and that would be the RPG part, than have the actual fighting which would be the FPS part.
