The Firefight Project: A Gameplay Experiment in Source
Project Goals:
The primary goal of this project is, natrually, to produce a game where firefights are the prominent gameplay dynamic. That is, create a mod where player's reflexes are not so importaint as manuvering and using tactics to eliminate opposing players. This project is dedicated to creating sustained fights (a real battle; an exchange between opposing players) that are exciting and tense. The best moments in games are when you don't die right away, and have to struggle to both survive and eliminate. That sort of dynamic/situation is at the heart of this project.
Theory:
As was stated in "Project Goals" above, this project is focused on producing a game where players struggle to survive and eliminate opposing players. We intend to do so by designing everything in the game around the following core dynamics:
- Usefullness of Cover
Cover must be both a usefull and integral part of the game.
- Manuvering/Tactics
To eliminate an opposing player, the player must use manuvering and tactics. Shooting is only half of the battle.
- Suppression
This tactic must be possible in the game design in a way that is both fair to the shooter and the victim.
- Lasting Fight
In line with the concept of a struggle, the design must not allow that the fight be ended too quickly. (i.e. no "one-click kill" solutions)
- Originality
Although not exactly a "dynamic" in the conventional sense, all dynamics in this game must retain a certain originality in either its conception or its excecution.
