sc 3 just an idea
« on: May 13, 2003, 02:34:56 am »

this is just an idea
have you ever played ultima online thrid dawn
where you chose what you look like man or women and play online with other players
sc 3 you can chose what race you want to be or be human
you can be a star ship captain and explore the stars and space combat or run a star base set up a colony set up mineing i like the mineing that they have in star control 3 now
just click on the mine icon bring up the ore the space orbit platform and build ships for the real players or build ships for npc players and send them to the stars
there should be new aliens and ship
and this is an idea to bring out the black spath now that the other spath are in there shield
"hey its just an idea i dont care if you use it or not"

I've always wanted to choose another race other than human to play. Although that would make Zelnick and the Mark II become a side story to your quest.
When UQM is a V1.0, has anyone given thought to, instead of making a sequel, make a side quest playable in the same universe, but have it be another charater. Kinda like Opposing Force or Blueshift was to Half-Life?
What quest would you do, and how would you impliment it?

How about the quest of the little lost Pkunk, who grew up with Utwig guidance and must convert all his species to the dar...er...depressed side. ^^

UQM: Opposing Force
You're a Vux Admiral whose ultimate goal is to collect a member of every gender of every species for your intergalactic zoo.  Use your modified Intruder and Precursor Warp Nullifier to lay waste to your foes.  Make landfall on mysterious planets and stun the natives!

This of course would be a tragic computer game where the goal is to lose in the end (but lose spectacularly!).


UQM:  Blueshift
You're the Spathi head of Security.  Don't have a heart attack.  Again, you can't win this game.  Or, maybe your goal is to find the pieces of technology that let you install a slave shield on your planet (then the game should be called redshift).


UQM: Counterstrike
Play a Syreen Captain as you shamelessly coerce a young Human captain into procuring Penetrator starships so that you can wage war against the Mycon. (Okay, it's not like the real counterstrike, but the name fits).


UQM: Day of Defeat
Play the Kohr-AH Primat.  Subdue the Kzer-Za, then use the Sa-Matra to annigilate... I mean annihigate.. damn!  agnigilate... all other races.
Maybe this would be better as Opposing Force, but the name "Day of Defeat" sounds more like the Kohr-Ah.

Heh, UQM:Gotta Catch'em All
And you can win. You're not admiral Zex, just a lackey of his. You return on your last mission to discover that the zoo is destroyed and Zex gone. Shrug. Collect your fee and go.

Hrmm... ideas for quests...

You're floating through deep space, stuck inside a small fragment of space vessel that is badly scorched, and contains a limited amount of breatheable air within. Just before you expire, a starship passes by and then swoops your sizeable space metal fragment up for salvage. Once inside, the ship, you pass out from exhaustion, your thoughts filled with revenge on the damnable species that has enslaved your kind for countless ages, and the traitor to your cause that left you to suffer. When you awake, you are being poked at with a finger and hear alien voices murmuring obscene questions like, "Is it some sort of toad?" or "That's the ugliest looking dog I've ever seen!"

You decide to share the joy of your special psychic powers with them to open their sense to appreciating flowers, and within seconds, their entire vessel understands what it is they must do. Take you do the home planet of the alien traitor that nearly got you killed, so you can once again open his eyes to the joys of flowers as well.

That is a spooky idea. Play as a Dnyarri? good god. That's just... wrong. I mean, I could even see myself playing as the Kohr-Ah, valiant, brave and honourable (albeit a tad misguided), but playing the D-man would seriously freak me out.

UQM: Fungal Growth - You're a Mycon Captain at the head of Birthing fleets and have to implant planets and protect those implanted. Keep the sphere expanding, and soon dominate the entirity of the local grid! Juffo-Wup must be spread! (There'd have to be some way to modify ships, because Podships pretty much just flat out suck.)

UQM: The Trade Wars - Choose to be a Druuge or Melnorme captain that is at war with the other race, both in the trade sector and ship-to-ship! Control trade, control the universe.

UQM: Falayalaralfali under Siege - You are an Arilou that has to deal with the Orz incursion into the Arilou homeplanet, or you are an Orz sent to destroy the Arilou *quick babies*. Other races/things could be included,  depending on what side you take (humans would help Arilou, Orz would have multiple ships besides Nemesis, etc)

Ooh, likey this idea. And it's simple to overcome the ship idea. You can just forcably convince other nons to become Juffo-Wup by killing them and implanting their corpse. (Assimilation, kinda. Maybe that changest the Mycon, I don't know.)

Oh, man. You just mixed star control with resident evil. I don't even want to try to write a game script that would do that storyline justice, but if it could be done successfully, woah.
