What Factions do you miss or want here ? DLC suggestions.


Well lets collect ideas

I miss this.
Can we have an Old School Martian Faction ?

Jeff Wayne's The War of the Worlds (1998 video game)

em guys make links maybe to pictures and suggest what unit that can be ?
I mean this way it more easier for developer :)


OK I do the list: just say if you miss something
-ability to choose and mod in different skins or asthetics for existing factions

-More military theme faction
Soviet, Germany, USA, GLA, Terrorist,
GI JOE and COBRA

-Aliens
Zerg
Martians
Protoss


-Robots
Terminator
The Grey Goo

-Animals
Huge Ants
Dinosaurs

-Mutants

-Fantasy
Lord of Rings/Warhammer like Orcs or Elves


So any more for that list ?

[TRIUMPH]

A korean /asian inspired faction tech faction that does NOT go mecha japanese.

[Compa]

Soviets, Mechs, Martians etc would be cool

[Awkwurdd]

Ofcourse the soviet faction from RA2!

[xysvenxy]

Military:
Sort of GDI (ok, we have that one) + a hit and run style (aka Nod) faction

Ancient:
Romans vs. Greek

SciFy:
Fleet of Stars vs. GROB (read the latter right to left)
Empire vs. Rebellion (could be any empire and any rebellion against it :D)

Fantasy:
Orcs vs Humans

[BroccoliWalkway]

I think a faction based on an ancient civilization would be a good addition to represent AoE or Total War, the medieval fantasy faction we're going to be getting has a Warcraft vibe to it (not a bad thing!) Also, as many here have said previously, a faction that utilizes mechs would be amazing

[Tristanius Spartanius]

Vampires, werwolfes, ghosts, goblins and zombies.
I like the idea of an ancient army, is this sparta?
Pirates?
Vikings?
Rise of the kitchen tools, army of fridges and toasters?

When I think about the game having 6 or more totally different armies which totally don't fit together I have to grin. I'd love to see that!

A Homeworld-style faction built around a central unit that performs the functions of a base while still being mobile.

I could also go for a Hierarchy-style faction with walkers as replacements for buildings or a Goo-style faction with no base building at all.

I think you could also do a MOBA style faction, where you have the option of playing 1 of 5 different heroes. Your base would just be a series of towers, creep producers and a shop. You have no control of creeps, you just protect them. If Petroglyph could actually pull something like this off, where you are playing against a normal RTS faction, then this game will be the ultimate WTF crazy, time sink, light hearted RTS.

This!

It'd be super cool to have an ancient civilization/tribal-like faction. Plus we could then engage in "archer vs. tank" battles, which are infamous in Civilization!

I'm picturing a Hero Line Tower Wars gamemode like in the Warcraft 3 custom games.

But either way, I don't think the devs have any intention of making a hero-type unit, especially one with abilities and an inventory, anytime soon.

I might have been playing too much Grey Goo and Supreme Commander, but wouldn't it be awesome to have epic units in the game? (For those unfamiliar with the term, check the videos below)

I must confess that I have a soft spot for gigantic destructive units (just imagine them walking through the cities and leveling everything in their paths), and I realize it must be very well balanced to work in a game. They can't be too strong so that it's impossible to take them down using a large amount of normal units, but not too weak or expensive so it's not worth building them.
As someone already mentioned, I really like those huge customizable Hierarchy walker units from Universe at War, that would be cool too.


Grey Goo - Epic units

Universe at War - Hierarchy faction

Supreme Commander - Experimental units

So am I crazy here, or would epic units be feasible in this game?

[Genie245]

I would love a faction like the GLA in C&C Genreals

Voxel terrorists, technicals, and tunnel networks FTW!

[TRIUMPH]

CNC already did it.
It could be marketed as the Starcraft for people who hate Starcraft faction. lol Sales will be millions!

Please tell me that someone on staff worked on this back in the day.

[Vorschreibung]

I'd prefer only 1 race but adding different tech-paths players walk down during the game instead of getting the badside of some future matchmake from the start because of race advantages on certain maps.

We have enough of that already in other RTS.

Adding more distinct races will mess with the entry barrier of the game, which is one of its greatest strengths atm.
