Imma use this to share all my bad ideas :)

#

All the maps we already have, except they're all either :

  • full green flat
  • full fallout zone
  • full mountains
#
  • Every maps but either mirrored or upside down
#

(or both :D)

#
  • Randomized structures, like you only have 1 button to build, but who knows what's it gonna be ?
#
  • allow people to increase the SAM radius (not the diameter, only big ovoid shapes
#
  • Invert land and water
#
  • only emoji available is clown emoji
#
  • even worse, you receive clown emoji randomly from other players, even though they didn't send anything

pre-game lobbies should have voice chat

digital scarab
#

swap the alliance betrayal and ask for alliance buttons

#

make the traitor debuff graphic last for a second longer than the debuff is actually active for, so if you betray in the last second you actually get the traitor debuff yourself

#

MIRVs have their gravity inverted, so they land faster from the south

#

if you take an alliance with someone, any transport ships going to their land either retreats or blows up

#

MIRVs start at 95 million and get 15 million cheaper for each one throw, at a minimum of 10

Add microtransactions and pay-to-win features

rain temple
opaque pumice
#

Put impossible mode nations in public lobbies without telling the players (may be the first time we see a nation win a public game)

steady salmon
#

name it "FullSendMePlease", give it a territory skin (like 1v1 me bro) and change its tag to "player" instead of "nation"

#

add voice chat so i can say nice things to my teamate when i lose

Make a special game mode where every 30 seconds the game randomises your inputs. The game might start out with normal controls, but after 30 seconds left click might become betray, right click might become atom bomb, etc.

#

Also a mode similar to the above but simpler where after a random interval, attacking causes you to shrink instead of grow, and there is no way to know when it switches

#

Nukes work like splatoon or similar games, where instead of turning the land in to wasteland it turns it in to your territory.

#

Make a mode where you need to attack every 30 seconds otherwise your entire territory is instantly turned in to wasteland, and your minimum attack is 20%

#

I could come up with millions of these ideas lol

#

Make the game a true battle royale, where every 10 seconds the person with the lowest % territory gets turned in to wasteland.

#

Make a special mode called 1 vs 100, where it is one player vs everyone else in the lobby. The solo player gets some insane buffs while everyone else is just normal.

red summit
#

Make all buildings disappear when captured

#

Warships pick a random route through all the oceans to reach their destination instead of the fastest route

steady salmon
#

give every nation the clown skin and set their difficulty on hard

red summit
#

Make all buildings act like defense posts

steady salmon
#

enable a blind modifier and for the 30 first seconds, no player can see other players (not even for the spawn phase)

  • it's on hiatus since the dev has lost all of it

#

I think it would be good for a fun gamemode. Afterall we have bullshit like "random spawn", I don't see why not fog of war

red summit
#

Make sams single use

subtle wing
steady salmon
#

every bomb price increases with the number of nuke sent

#

Make a mode where your citizens can rebel, and rebel nations can take over part of your territory and be hyper aggressive towards you

#

Make a Europe map where France doesn't exist

Make super nukes that destroy the actual map and turn it into void

#

non-recoverable nuked land

Mothership - a giant warship that can launch nukes

steady salmon
#

ports still possible but only for warships, no more tradeships are allowed and econ has to be factory based only

change the "you won" message for "you died"

steady salmon
#

Rename the server OnlyFans for the day

#
  • change the icon
steady salmon
#

change all mods name and pfp to those of @zealous basin Deadpan

#

im convinced @digital scarab is a genius

#

set everyone's attack ratio to 100% by default

steady salmon
#

Randomize the names in the game, like when you join the lobby, your name is randomly swapped with someone else's

native trail
#

already too late for ts

#

nukes hydrogens would have a 10% chance of spawning a nation instead of radiated land

steady salmon
#

flood game modifier on all maps : mountains become highlands, highlands become plains, and plains turn into the ocean

digital scarab
#

change the water and land colors, nuked terrain turns into even deeper water, but is functionally just nuked terrain

#

make all bots attack a bot that is being attacked by a player, to steal their kill

#

make a boat landing into allied territory (eg: sending a boat into an enemy, but before it lands an ally takes the land) cause a betrayal

#

add a 0.1% chance every second of the betrayal flash to activate even if you're not being betrayed

#

Biblical scenario (the sea levels keep rising)

steady salmon
native trail
#

didnt reas

feral pumice
#

Maybe something like the great flood?

#

Could do well as a full br mode with rising water levels

steady salmon
#

another game modifier could be "all alliances enabled" and the game starts with everyone allied to everyone, and people have to betray in order to attack joe_evil_plan

Rename FFAs to teams of 1 on April fools

mellow holly
#

This past April fools I should have editing the North American map and renamed everything to 'America' theme. Greenlamerica, Canamerica, Mexiericma, Cubamerica. Also would have added Gulf of America nation just for good measure.

You could have typed first

April fools holiday 2027 should at least be from March 28 > April 4. I would prefer a two week window instead of one given that there are no other hoildays.

deft wolf
#

i have a brilliant idea,

coarse iron
deft wolf
#

make it so u can only launch misslies at allies while you are allied to make everyone so afraid of eachother

deft wolf
steady salmon
#

randomized terrain, plains/highlands/mountains/sea are all switched randomly

mellow holly
#

If you nuke hits your ally in a teams game you get marked as a traitor.

mellow holly
#

If a nuke specifcially hits a warship; the warship duplicates.

#

Slow motion nukes the longer your in game.

#

Reduce game speed by 50%. Increase timer speed by 200%.

steady salmon
mellow holly
#

Missle silos will explode if you click to launch nuke and the silo is not ready.

#

Hydrogen bomb blast radius are random shapes and designs.

#

Warships shoot trains over water/bridge.

steady salmon
mellow holly
#

Add a chime that increases in frequency each time a single train of yours passes through a source of revenue. Fine in a small game, but would very quickly become annoying.

#

Add spiral loop too nuke trajectorry so it flies off like a deflating balloon.

#

Add a bot with the same name to every single game with above average stats. Random spawn location. Call him AL, but with the lower case L 'Al'

civic pivot
#

this would be funny to implement tho

#

When you send a transport it slows down by 50% at 50% of its journey. 70% > 70%, ect.. Aka it will never reach its destination.

#

Replace all players clan tags with the same fake clan tag except for the 'player' themselves. But give no way to join this unknown clan. Players will enter games and feel totaly outnumbered.

#

Change loosers instructional video to Rick Roll

#

Add banner stating "find and defeat the double-expert level red-herring bot nation and win X prize", except theres no such bot. Wheres waldo without waldo.

#

Play obnoxious music, but let it begin a 0% volume when the game starts and VERY slowly increase from there.

#

Find out an impossible stat that cant be obtained within 24 hours and make it a challenge with prize.

#

And an in game chat features, but its all AI auto responses demonstrating why we don't have this as a feature.

#

Adjust team colors to be within 1% of each other so you cant tell players apart.

#

Add new structure "the monolith" that does nothing at all and make it cost an stupid amount.

#

Add airports as a structure, but when you want to launch a plane give an error stating "fuel required". This implies another features/step that will not exist.

#

Offer collectable Meals Ready to Eat.

#

Donate to a non-profit that is against war and make a post about how war is wrong, ect..

#

Detail that a OpenFront movie is in the works. What about? Be vague.
