You know what would rock? A free-roaming (in the vein of GTA, Saints Row, Red Dead Redemption, ect.) mech game with mech customization on par (or better than) Armored Core.

If only. 

I cant imagine in a thousand years how a sand box, none linear Armor Core would work. That's just super bizarre.

[Niveras]

Maybe not so much GTA, but Just Cause. Plenty of opportunity for over-the-shoulder rampant destruction, not so much for commandeering other vehicles. You could maybe get away with having enemy mechs you could climb aboard and beat up and throw out the other pilot, but that somewhat negates the purpose of customization (although a robust customization system would allow for a large variety of enemy mechs to fight).

I've never played Armor Core per se, just a couple different installments of Mechwarrior, but I can imagine a mech game with customization in a large, destructable sandbox environment. Possibly in multiple locations - instead of just one island, with its myriad environments, as in JC2, multiple planets/systems/warzones, each with their mix of environments.

Of course, it is also kind of hard to imagine in what universe would a clandestine - as opposed to mercenary - mech pilot operate (as opposed to a clandestine human operative).

I want to play a game where you design your own weapons or vehicles in some way that actually allows innovation, rather than just "+1 attack, -1 accuracy". Are there any out there other than Aurora?

[Blizzlord]

Unless you count Borderlands, no.

I want minecraft with giant mechs. And moar Dakka.

Hey guys, remember this? The whole reason I found out about DF? Well, I want that, but I want it to be so immersive that I feel like a shell is going to drop at anytime, and I'm going to have to scoop someone's guts back into their belly, all the while they're screaming their lungs out, only to realize that it's hopeless. I want to wallow around in a blood drenched, corpse laden trench, watching as my comrades are torn to bits by a bayonet charge. I want to slowly go insane and die of Typhus in a trench. I want Attrition Warfare: The Game basically. Perhaps incorporated with this:

I'd like a game where you play as an infantryman, and you don't have much control over where you go.  You can sign up in different parts of the military ( Commando, Marine, Special Ops, etc ) but that's it.  You'll be deployed, and fight, and hopefully not die.  Perma-death for a character is essential.

Would be cool if this is set in space, like Starship Troopers.  Fucking WW1 man.

Spreadsheets:The Game
Seriously, I need something SO spreadsheet based that I start to realise them. I just see them as a regular graphical interface. Nothing strange with them, so I never get it when people complain.
With Aurora say, it took me about 5 hours playtime to realise why people were complaining about spreadsheets. Until then, I didn't even notice anything spreadsheety about it, just numbers that I needed to know.

So, more spreadsheets, less pictures.

...WTF did I just read?

[Matz05]

Seconded. What the heck?

[SalmonGod]

From now on, whenever I think a game is lacking in brutal, horrific realism... the proper appeal is "I want to slowly go insane and die of Typhus in a trench."  Shortening it to "I want to die of Typhus in a trench" might be a bit catchier.

Not enough games these days allow you to die from disease. Actually, I can't think of any offhand other than Oregon Trail.

[Svarte Troner]

Heh heh. I was watching some Saving Private Ryan clips on youtube, got me a little hyped up there. 

[Conor5677]

I've always wished there was a multiplayer space game that was pretty much like space build in garry's mod, but much larger.

Unreal World.

[Guardian G.I.]

I wish there was a cyberpunk GTA-style game.
