Yes please something new or maybe even anything new. Get creative, it worked with KF.

There will be a KF2, it has been quite heavilly hinted at, and it's not a bad thing by any means, a KF2 would be a pretty much garuenteed pay day for TWI (especially if it's got more gametypes) ;)

But yeah, past the allmost obligatory sequals to Ost and KF, i would love to see them tackle something new.

Aside from KF2, hopefully with RO2 mechanics added (could create flame war though:D). Maybe more on the publisher side for indie games. I am getting more and more fond of indie games, so a nice publisher for them would be awesome.

Also about speculation:
It wouldn't even be too bad if they made an alternative history type of setting. Doesn't even have to be that extreme (West-Germany vs East Germany proxy war or something).
However it would deviate from the 'streamlined realism' when you define it as historical accuracy.

I wanted to suggest a prognotic story (Science fiction sounds extreme) of future wars.
However aside from the deviation I mentioned before, game developers seem to be unable to write (or hire a writer) a plausable story (nice example: Homefront... jeez even Killing Floor is more plausible)

I can't see any reason (aside from time and money issues) that TWI would choose not to make a KF2. They could make such a better game, really - every mistake or bad part of KF1 would probably be nonexistant. It'd be a huge money-grabber, too. After the release of RO2 and the possible publishing of indie titles alike to The Ball and Dwarfs down the road, you'd think TWI would manage to make a worldwide storm with that thing. I mean, KF1 is an indie title with indie funding, and the game alone for what it is appealed to so many people in such a short time, isn't that right? KF2 can only do much, much better, I'd say.

But personally, while I would love a KF2, I'd actually love to see what other sort of gem TWI can possibly come up with.

Probably a new game called "Sleep", possibly followed by "Family vacation with ME there" and add-ons such as "Coders get weekend WITH their family" and "Animators stop sleeping on office couch". If we get REALLY lucky, we might have a go at "Get Test Team to bathe". But that one is a long shot.

So this mean you will release KF2 before starting on above projects? :rolleyes:

RO styled Scifi-Shooter in the not to distant Future.

reason: no realism fags complaining at the forums about unrealistic weapons.
If lasers are visible in the air, or if there's sound in space, I will boycott the game!


This.

I would actually love to see something like a KOTOR or Mass Effect-style game set in the Firefly universe, or a reasonable facsimile thereof. Or, hell, an FPS even.

TWI should try to make a new Battlezone sequel :).

I think they could handle it.

It'd definitely be a change of pace and the BZ series if perfect for the PC. Also I'm desperate for BZ3 ;). Actually replaying BZ1 right now... AGAIN!

Other than that I just want to see loads of content released for HOS+RS. As much as possible :).
