More than likely mentioned before but I am thinking on the ARMA3 scale. Imagine how freaking insane this would be if you had HUGE maps with strategic points that you need to capture, say for example the radio tower to unlock aerospace etc.

I am at work right not so can't unload all the ideas and synergies but it would be NUTS.

It also probably would not work given the way the server/client communication works in this game. It would be awesome though

combined arms battletech would be sweet, but we are quite away from anyone actually doing this.

planetside 2 could come close, but the complexity of a battlemech as we know them, they would not work with the engine, as they would add 11 hitboxes to every armored unit instead of one, (like a tank is in ps2 right now) so not only would server load increase by that margin, it would for the other thousand players in game, then add in fast moving aerotech fighters, and you would need a truely next generation engine with massive, colossal even resource requirements, because battlemechs can hit over 1km and you can have over 100 battlemechs inside that space, and the number of objects to track triple when you start to include the planes.

have you got a 24 core cpu, 1 terrabyte RAM upgrade for your home PC in the works?

i am with you! but i cannot see this happening for another 10 years MINIMUM. *edit* ...at least for a FPS...
