    Fix it.




    you beat me to it, but nice to see others like the idea as well, old west meets sci-fi but at least its influence is seen in many games

    Firefly goes without saying.

    Angel: Because the spinoff of Buffy was better than the original, but really anything in the "buffyverse" would work.

    Nakita: Really any spy show like Chuck woudl also work, but in general the game is designed so that you have multiple roles and you have to work as a team to complete missions and in pvp fights try to counter the enemies tactics.

    Farscape: OMG why hasnt some one done this already. ship combat, a vast amount of unique races, endless planets you can create. Ground and ship exploration.

    Heroes/Misfits: Realistic superhero game with sandbox elements.

    Lost Girl / Once Upon a Time / Fabels: Twisted versions of modern day fairy tales with Fae like creatures...

    Supernatural / Hunter the Reckoning: Sorta like Secret World, only without a bunch of people giving you  orders. You just have to survive and Hunt.

    2 Things!

    1. Master of the universe was a movie not a tv show! 

    2. Top five would be:

    Firefly

    Angel

    Space above and Beyond

    Sliders (tho I have no idea how you could do it)

    2 guys a girl and a pizza place....Endless possibiilities!

    A Western MMO...  ::Nerdgasm::

     

    Been saying it for years on the forums.  My wish is for one based on the Deadlands RPG (more of a "Weird West" setting than straight Western), but my prayers have not been answered yet.  :(  Bonus alternate history component of my dreams -- biplanes.  Getting into steampunk territory, but sprinkle a little of that in too, what the heck.  ::Swoon::

    Stuff like masters of univerfse or even freaking muppets in there but NO FIREFLY?

     

    What a heresy.

    Masters of the Universe was a tv show.  A beloved Cartoon tv show, not that joke of a movie :(

    2. Top five would be:

    Firefly

    Angel

    Space above and Beyond

    Sliders (tho I have no idea how you could do it)

    Firefly gets my vote for # 1. But I would love to see someone make a Bionic Woman/6 million dollar man mmo. Two of my favorite shows growing up.  Voltron, Megaman, Godzilla :P Land of the Lost.  To be honest though, I don't really care about the IP I just wish someone would make a  game that will give this tired genre the kick in the pants it needs.

    Am I being trolled? Why would any rational person want firefly to be an MMO?

  • someforumguysomeforumguy Member RarePosts: 4,088

    Both Firefly and The Walking Dead lack substance for a MMO. I loved Firefly series, but you dont get to learn a lot about the background of that galaxy. Not like in Babylon 5 or Stargate for example. Probably also because Firefly got killed after 1 season :(

    As for a zombie MMO, I rather see zombies as part of a larger setting, like in a post apocalyptic setting as in Fallen Earth. But then a better executed Fallen Earth please. Preferable also with a better physics engine so when you whack a zombie, itll look good.

    Actually, Masters of the Universe originally was a toy franchise in the 80's that spawned 2 TV shows, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and She-Ra Princess of Power. Both shows were basically set in the same universe (He-Man was based on planet Eternia, She-Ra on one of its moons) and characters from one would frequently guest star in the other.

    There's also the Masters of the Universe movie with Dolph Lungren as He-Man, and the 2002 He-Man TV series remake that was on cartoon network for 2 seasons.

    BTW, a masters of the universe MMO would be the only one that I'd play in the spanish version as long as they include the original song (it has lyrics in spanish, and I doubt you could find anyone here in Venezuela over the age of 30 that can't sing it by heart)... :)

    What can men do against such reckless hate?

    how could I forget this? THIS IS FANTASTIC IDEA.

    Set mmo in the the timeline after "Chosen" (that is comic book Season 8/9 setting). The whole S8 finale would be an epic "cataclysm" (no pun intended) update that shakes up everything in the game.

    Get whedon to write an entire lore for mmo = problem solved.

    Supernatural would be perfect for an MMO.

    Sorry, the picture they provided was of the crap movie...and since the movie was called Masters of the Universe (and the picture was from it too) and the show was called He-man AND the Masters of the Universe I assumed (I know wrong of me) that they meant the movie...

    Sorry
