I want to play a game which doesn't exist

[onewheeled]

Competetive multiplayer zombie game:

- human survivers play in the typical FPS style as seem in Left 4 Dead
- People controlling the zombies have an RTS view like Total War.

Maybe it does exist but I havn't seen it yet.

Check out the Half-Life 2 mod Zombie Master [http://www.zombiemaster.org/]. Players have to work together to complete objectives and survive a zombie onslaught, which is controlled RTS-style by a player that's randomly selected from the group before each game.

I want to play a space-sim game that has seamless transitions between planets and space with no loading screens, boarders, or anything like that. A space sim that lets you walk around in your ship, stock your ship with a crew, interact with that crew, lets you trick your enemies, lets you capture other ships to use, lets you hack into other people's ships, and just has a wide variety of ways to play both in space and on planets.

Wait, what's that, it exists [http://www.elliptic-games.com/index.shtml]? My dream game exists?! IT IS A REAL THING THAT IS HAPPENING?!?!?!

If you'll all excuse me, I'll be over here, tending to my massive erection.

I want an open-world game where the objective of the entire game is to find the person that harmed you or killed your family and kill him. The twist is that you actually have to WORK at finding him. You have notes on all your friends and a cell phone and you can call them up if you think they know something. Doing that will give you another clue as to where the person is. The game at no point directly tells you where to go or what to do. Imagine GTA with the story of crank with no quest log, no linear pathways, and no missions. your only clues on what to do are the notes you have on people and the conversations you record with them. Does anything like this exist?

Is their a game that you keep you see in your head vividly, however when you try to find it you can only find games that are only vaguely similar to the game you have in your head? This is the case with me.

I want to play a space colony mmo. Basically a game where you start off on a large colony ship from earth and you choose the type of planet you land on in the galaxy. You begin with a small area around the grounded colony ship eventually building it up larger and larger until you can build in another area on the planet. Eventually you can build satellites then space stations and on other planets and moons within the solar system. This is all occurring within a larger galactic society though. You can then build trade alliances with other players withing your local group of solar systems. Which eventually can be built into protective alliances against other groups. Other players would be able to conquer you and if they do so you lose everything and have to start over again from a colony ship. However you can surrender and live under the conquered players rule as a governor of your colony.

Atm I don't think we have the tech necessary for this game to exist but that should be remedied in at least half a decade. So how about you what game is out there that you want to play?

You're in luck. Endless Space came out today.

Still not the game I am picturing

Yeah I know about Infinity. But it's been in development for quite a while already and doesn't let me walk around on planets or in my ship.

Still, it looks amazing and I've been keeping my eye on it.

So how about you what game is out there that you want to play?

Quite a number, so rather than sit around wishing it to be, I'll just roll my sleeves up and make the game myself.

Well that's the end plan for me, I figure if no one else is going to make this game I guess it falls to me.
