Look at modern cinema, a movie like Blade Runner 2049 didn’t fare nearly as well as it should have because modern audiences crave Michael Bay explosions and sexed up women. But of course, that could also be an overgeneralization on moviegoers. Blade Runner is a bit of a strange film, even when already acknowledging its slower pace. However, the point remains that there is not as much of an appreciation today for a well thought out plot or gameplay that isn’t in your face with filler QTE’s and other gimmicks.

@@harrysarso Sure, but you have to assume this; if everyone goes in doubting the commander, then they just do what they want, whether or not the commander is good. This typically leads to a situation where the team will most likely lose since they aren't working together on objectives. There are exceptions to every situation of course, but commanders typically have a lot more information about the overall state of the game and therefor are better equipped to tell the grunts what they should be working on. It is for precisely this reason that in the real military, if you are given a lawful order you are expected to carry it out and disregarding the order can lead to a reduction in rank at best and even field execution at worst.

I have loved this genre since Battle Zone in the 90s. I have always wanted one that took place in space on carriers and battleships. Some players act as the bridge crew, with the captain controlling the overall battle strategy, and other players acting as infantry doing boarding actions or landing on planet surfaces and others piloting fighters and bombers. I imagined that all the units would be AI controlled, but players could queue up basically to play a fighter or a soldier and would then drop in to control one in an active game as they were available. So sometimes your units would be player controlled, and if they died, they'd take control of another unit nearby. I always thought it would be cool. Like Star Wars clone wars vibes with these ships showing up to planets and just fighting over the surface as well as duking it out in space. Having to deal with resupplying and reinforcing units on the ground while also doing space battles at the same time.

A game like this can be an interesting comepetitive game if theres more meat to it. Think of it like Starcraft where you have to get resources to build up your base and army. The commander can build up the base while the other players are the army guys. The army guys go out to find resources to build up the base from scratch like blueprints for weapons, tanks, new buildings, etc. While at the same time finding resources along the way and killing enemies. The opposing team can do the same thing, but they're the crabs and building up a hive cluster base. The game can end with either team destroy each other's base and then switch sides after the match ends.

Dude, Jack. This game looks phenomenal. Very impressed with the developer, the ideas he/they have for a game like this. I'm just a bit older than you and I was a huge fan and still am of command and conquer national selection and if you ever played Dystopia on steam that's another one that really gained my attention around the same time of natural selection. Thank You so much for finding such great titles of up and coming games.

Very cool RTS cross FPS Mech shooter vs aliens! It's looking like it's going to be reaaal cool!! The whole genre just brings back Battlezone vibes!

OK this definitely brings me back to the Battlezone 2 days, CnC Renegade etc. Still some underground scenes modding Battlezone 2 alongside the Renegade X project today. I hope this gains traction. It would be immense to see some more physics based destruction in something like this. This genre is underrated for the possibilities.

Don't forget about WARSHIFT, which was very similar to this as well being a FPS/RTS. Another one that seems to really be the "test bed" for this one was called Nuclear Dawn, which really had good, solid, mechanics setup for both the commander and the rest of the players. Overall the issue with RTS/FPS is the two don't really combine well together, even with a player dedicated to the RTS side, you still need the rest of the players to follow along what the commander is doing. Thing is, most other players are going to do....whatever....and if it happens to be in the same direction as killing the enemy, great. So RTS/FPS really dies when it comes to pugs, because as the commander its like herding cats. Worse still is if the commander is a troll themselves, and does nothing or wastes resources.

Similar concept to Battlezone (2 for me specifically) back in the day. That one, you built the base and such from a first person perspective which has a nice charm (until you built an uplink) That was an outstanding game, but, games that straddle two genres together can struggle (commercially) because people who are hardcore into one, often don't like the other. I hope this fares well!
