Dream Game?
Well here is my dream concept:
Calling it Total Warfare: A MMO-RTS/FPS.
...
Damn bro get out of my head! I had a similar idea as well, but each mode could be switched to at any time, so you have varying levels of control and experience at each level.
Top Level: Turned Based Stategy (TBS):
-Based off Civ and other turned based games
-High level actions such as tech trees and upgrades which you would carefully choose based on how well you are achieving your objectives
-Make choices on what moves to play, which immensely alter your objectives
Medium Level: RTS
-Assign objectives which were generated by moves made on TBS mode.
-Units are human players and bots.
-Assign objectives to human players and assign bots to human players to control or be part of a team
-Control bots just like you would in a RTS like units to help the human players complete their objective
Low Level: FPS
-Complete objectives assigned on RTS mode.
-Take control of any bot and play that char. At any time when you die, you switch back to RTS where to can pick another bot to take control of (obviously there is a cooldown so you can keep going to FPS mode frequently).
My idea was less of a MMO and more single player/co-op oriented. You had a main commander who could switch to any of the Genres/Levels and buddies on the frontline (FPS) helping you achieve your objective. I think your MMO/buffs bit makes it even more interesting to play on the low level.
