I had a cool idea for a game awhile ago (right after I read about the Huxley videogame, which possibly inspired me). Here it is...
Earth. Post-apocolyptic period after the bombs. In the early 22nd century, tension arose concerning Earth's remaining resources. Europe and North America fought for control over precious oil and water. Cargo ships were intercepted, their crews either killed on contact or taken hostage. Soon the entire world was facing a famine, without the proper resources to survive. A nuclear war eventually broke out and continued for a short period of time, until the world was wiped clean of life. Except for us. The survivors. Some may say we now have a chance to start fresh, and new. In my opinion, at least for now, all we can do is survive. And to survive we must stand together.
The game would be a great MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). You would have the option to join, choose a "continent" in which to spawn, then find a group as quickly as you can and stick with them. If you don't join quickly, they're more likely to kill you and take your equipment. So you join a group (which consists of all human players), and, just like it said in the description, try to "start anew". Remake the Earth. In the beginning, the whole area everyone plays in is ruined (possibly some ruined cities, i.e. deserted scyscapers to make a base in, etc.). I think it'd be cool if the sky was constantly orange. Just a dull, far-away look. And of course the moon. Now, when you have a big enough group, or, if you're skilled enough, city, you can try to move into other towns and take them over from other players. You can steal their vehicles, which can be obtained by, say, searching old wrecked military complexes for Hummers, etc., and can salvage other things, such as weapons. And of course design your base to be safer, such as being walled in with crenellations for AA guns to shoot through, etc., with the main living quarters inside the base. The group could be mostly military, but you could get a gunsmith to obtain metals to create guns with, etc. And when you become advanced enough, you could get into projects such as planes and jetpacks and such. You could have a medical tent, etc...design different armor...and you could keep communication by radio if you've conquered more than one town.
Sounds good eh? Just don't copy it.
