So me and my friend (yobo89) are thinking of some ideas for our next game. We cannot decide whether this idea will go down well. Please reply and say if this is ideas is good/bad.

There are two teams. Each has a "Skyship", a large aircraft with several cannons and deployable craft. Each team has 20 players (too many/too few?), 10 to be crew and man the guns, and 10 to be deployed on troop transports, fighters etc.

In a good game, there would be intense duels in the sky, large turret battles between motherships and instense PvP combat as one team board's the other's ship. You will be able to take down the enemy ship from the inside, and it would be faster and more effective than just bombarding them.

Please critique. I have not given all the details of the game away.

So almost like Galleons, that old classic that was ship vs ship? If so, I'd be up for that. Remember when building to build in parts of anchored, or find a way to make it so CSG can somehow break the ship... idk lol.

Also, maybe only have a few pilots, maybe have some smaller spaceships inside the big one people can drive in to attack the other teams ship.

Yes, we were considering having it like "sky galleons" and that there are deployable ships that the players can take off and fly toward the enemy mothership.

Sounds like an interesting game. Instead of rocks to hide behind for cover would there be planets or meteors?

It's not a space game, the ships use helicopter blades like a hovercraft.

Think the hovership ship from "Avatar".

There would be mountains to hide behind, and you would not be able to fly above a certain height.

that would be fun, but combat on roblox has always felt like a grind, like you are just killing them, they come back like 5 seconds later and maby with some luck you will not die, if the combat was nice i could see it being a fun game

We have not yet decided how respawning will work.

As for combat, I think the damage would be realistic, e.g. a shot to the leg may not kill you, but a shot to the head will have a 98% chance of instakill or something along those lines.

A game with the exact idea has already been made--I can't remember what it's called but I know that it's popular. You have your own ship in the game and you can fly around and attack others.

it may or may not be hard to implement this, depending on how you go about it, but tracers would be nice so lets say the ships are right beside eachother everyone is ready to swing across and board eachother, i would popup with my scatter gun and just fire in the direction of them and see the tracers, it would be sweet
