Ideas for dc games?

[Toxin45]

In response to the idea for marvel video game threads which video game ideas would you like in dc games?

[sifighter]

A Suicide Squad themed Strategy game, like an odd type of Xcom style combat. You get to play as Waller’s new second in command, a fill in for Rick Flag, and every mission you get to pick a squad up new and existing villains/characters who you send out to carry out missions.

[BohemiaDrinker]

Wonder Woman God of War game.

LSH Mass Effect Game.

An Atom slasher game where navigation and combat are dependant on changing sizes.

Green Arrow "arkham-like".

[LifeIsILL]

Green Arrow island survival game

Green Lantern space exploration

LOSH space sim real-time strategy

Hawkman air combat adventure space game

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

Wonder Woman God of War game.

Green Lantern space exploration.

I dig those.

I would like:

DCU deckbuilder-tactics hybrid game (ala Duelyst and Faeria)

Wonder Woman WRPG

Doom Patrol or Justice League Dark JRPG (or both... )

Batman, Adam Strange, or Cave Carson Metroidvania (GL would work too, but I'd prefer Adam Strange or Cave Carson! Batman would be great also - Gotham would make for a great map to design and his gadgets fit perfectly w/ the genre. And I'll specify 2D, since the Arkham games can be considered MV's. Blue Beetle maybe, too...lotsa possibilities for the genre)

House of Mystery/Secrets adventure game (maybe something akin to a first-person "walking simulator" or maybe a detective style game like the Sherlock Holmes games, etc)

DCU fighting game made by Arc System Works, French Bread, or Examu/Team Arcana. Or SNK.

DCU hero shooter game? Maybe? Not sure how it'd work w/ all the super powered gods running around, but I think the concept should at least be considered!

[Agent Z]

A Wonder Woman game in the gameplay style of Bayonetta, Darksiders or Devil May Cry.

A Shadowpact Action RPG.

A Static game similar to Infamous.

An action game starring Arsenal, Tigress and Cheshire with focus on weaponry and hand-to-hand combat.

A Cassandra Cain beat em up.

A Global Guardians online, team-based game.

[Vampire Savior]

An Elongated Man detective text adventure done in the vein of Snatcher for Sega CD, and with graphics and sound on par with something done on the PC Engine or Sega CD.



I bet NO ONE would ever make that.

A Suicide Squad themed Strategy game, like an odd type of Xcom style combat. You get to play as Waller’s new second in command, a fill in for Rick Flag, and every mission you get to pick a squad up new and existing villains/characters who you send out to carry out missions.

A Suicide Squad game that is basically a reskinned Jagged Alliance 2. You get to play as Amanda Waller and pick which field agents (Rick Flag, Bronze Tiger, Tom Tressor) you want to send out on missions along with inmates form Belle Reve. More powerful inmates are unlocked as the game goes on etc.

[Agent Z]

An Aquaman action RPG dealing with gathering allies.

An action adventure game starring Zauriel and Linda Danvers as angels fighting the forces of evil.

[Adekis]

Telltale Superman game.

[Tazpocalapse]

A Legion Of Superheroes Explorer/Action Space themed game. The game would start with the forming of the U.P. and the initial formation of the Legion starting with the 3 founders.Conduct Legion tryouts and explore other worlds to recruit new members. Collect artifacts from around the DCU to add to museums.

[Lee Stone]

A Suicide Squad themed Strategy game, like an odd type of Xcom style combat. You get to play as Waller’s new second in command, a fill in for Rick Flag, and every mission you get to pick a squad up new and existing villains/characters who you send out to carry out missions.

That would be a great idea.
Unfortunately, most modern players find squad-based tactics games too complex, too hard and too involved.

I remember being disappointed that Avengers Alliance Tactics couldn't find an audience.
It was the best non-official Heroclix type game that's been on pc so far, IMHO.

I would love a DC game like Avengers Alliance Tactics.
Maybe use the name 'Task Force X' or 'Justice League Task Force' so it could include all of DC's heroes (and some villains).

A John Constantine point and click adventure game in the mold of Telltale, Dontnod etc.

An underwater set Aquaman game involving not just Atlantis but also other places as well. Like Tritonis, home of the merpeople, with appearances by Lori Leramis and her husband Ronal, things like that. Supporting characters should include other than the always ubiquitous Mera and Vulko, the Aqualads and lasses, Garth, Kaldur, Tula, Lorena as well as Dolphin. Enemy units would include Rebel Atlantean troops, Trench monsters, Manta Troopers, various sea monsters, etc. Of course the boss characters would the expected villain heavy hitter for Aquaman: Orm, Black Manta, King Shark and co. Depending on how the underwater controls work and how cleverly Aquaman's marine telepathy powers are used, I think it would do very well.

How about a dragon age/mass effect(the ones people like) type of RPG with morality choices that effect the game based in a Kingdom come type world where you determine who you morally align with a side in an argument which determines who you will end up fighting and how it will impact the outcome of the world. Obviously not exactly Kingdom come because we would know the ending.

1) I agree with those who suggested an Ultimate Alliance type game with DC heroes.... something like an upgraded version of the Justice League Heroes game.

2) How about DC Universe Online 2 ? The current DCUO desperately needs an upgrade.

3) Ok, this one is a board game although there is an online version : Cosmic Encounters ... but with a Legion of Superheroes twist. Instead of playing as one of the game's aliens you play as a member of the LSH, each with its own unique power. The game comes close to capturing the "feel" of an actual superpower.... because the powers allow you to break or modify the rules in some fundamental way. It's not just, "+2 to strength if you have so-and-so card." The Legion is a good fit because of the large cast and the fact that most legionnaires have one -- and only one -- clearly defined power. That last point simplifies the mechanics.

Some of the existing aliens already have counterparts in the Legion : Dream Girl can take over the alien called Oracle who has the "power to foresee." She can view the card an opponent plays before playing her own card. The Macron has the "power of mass." Each of his ship is worth 4 instead of 1. The term "mass" makes me think of Star Boy. The Reincarnator assumes the identity and powers of a randomly determined alien every time he loses an encounter. So basically, he is a shape-shifter like Chameleon Boy.

Other legionnaires might require more thought but that's the general idea. it probably needs additional gameplay mechanics. I'm hoping for a co-op mode and an online version.
