ITT: Game mechanics that will NEVER be in a video game. (Sometimes for good reasons.)A MMO where every player's name is hidden by default. If you want to know someone's name to send him a message, invite to party or add him to your friend list, you both need to do the shake hands emote.

A 5 vs 5 MOBA game where one of the players in each team is an imposter and "on the other side's" and will win if the enemy team wins.Players can vote to permanently kill one of their party members every 10 minutes so there's an incentive to stay hidden and not just help the enemy right away.
>>737105826WE'RE!
Team-based shooter like TF2 or Deadlock except each team has an Overseer. The overseer plays in spectator mode, is a floating camera that can go through walls, he can choose to spawn ammo, health pickups wherever he wants, or close/open doors on the level, forcing enemies to go through other zones (unless their own overseer opens the door up, there's a cooldown on world interactions.)
>>737106458Cannot for the life of me remember the name but there was a 1st person MOBA where one player on each side was in a top down RTS mode where they could guide players and actively control minions
A game with admin privileges that encrypts random files on your computer whenever you die.If you want access to them back, you have to beat the game.
>>737106147low-mid ELO ranks would become a complete shitshow, I'd pay to watch the replays.
>>737105826You're only allowed to play the game if you've had sex
>>737107610Nobody here plays games so nothing would happen
>>737107610If you die in the game you get sex in real life.
>>737105826ATB/cooldown based reap time mecha fighting game where you have to set the movements of all of your mecha parts. basically competitive menuing
>>737107813I had an idea once for a game like Toribash except it's a giant robot where every limb is controlled by one different person plus the head, so it's 5 vs 5, but I figured it'd be the most unfun thing imaginable to play.
>>737106519I can only think of Savage, but that wasn't a moba, but it was more like a traditional rts where each player picked a unit except for one player that acted as the strategist, they were responsible for building, upgrading and issuing commands since they had an overview of the map.
>>737106519Battleswarm? Though it was more like Terran team where each player is a marine in FPS and the Zerg team with a single player controlling the swarm in RTS mode.
>>737105905Black souls has a constant general going in vrpg despite there being a no generals rule. Rape stocks are up right now
Counterstrike or any FPS game except it runs in slowmotion. (0.5x speed)So even turning around with the mouse and shooting is slower. Tactics become more important than reaction speed.
>>737105826RPG centered around time travel. At first, the protagonist(s) time machine can only send their present minds back into their past bodies, working as an in-universe justification for save/load mechanics (kind of like in Undertale). Then it gets an upgrade allowing them to go back into the past in their present bodies, enabling them to meet with their past versions and even cause a time paradox if they're not careful. Then an another upgrade lets the time machine go into the past before it was built... and then it turns out that in order to get the golden ending, you need to travel some hundreds of years ago and change some of the established history of the setting. (Yes, I am the Samurai Jack fan currently playing Bravely Default 1 if you cannot tell).
>>737108341That hasn't been a rule for ages now. Well, maybe a year, since they updated the stickies in April last year.

>>737107958Override: Mech City Brawl had this.
>>737105826>this was nearly a decade ago
>>737107261This is just a slightly less cruel version of Lose/Lose.
>>737106458>>737106519would love to have something like that
>>737105826>talk to him only once>he occasionly sends messages and invites you don't respond to>you "forget" his name, but he doesn't forget yours>have to do the awkward name guessing game
>>737106458>team FPS with the RTS bossNatural Selection 2 is just that, neat game.well, more like was, as development and support has ended few years ago
>>737105826Shadow of the Colossus but you're climbing a giant woman and 'attacking' her erogenous zones.
>>737105826This is just Haven and Hearth.
>>737108775Capture The Frag>everyone is constantly shooting>getting hit earns you points>hitting someone redacts them
>>737105826Skateboarding maids. The mechanic is you need to do cool tricks frequently and make the place spotless.
>>737115404>Skateboarding maidsI don't know why but I love this meme.
>>737105826A hero shooter where one character's ability is to eliminate one member of the enemy team for every X minutes gone by.
>>737105826An RPG where choices ACTUALLY matter.
>>737116672The Bitcher 2, shame they fucked up the sequel.
>>737105826>peбятa я дyмaю чтo я нa oбъeктивнoмwhat the fuck is that translation?>i'm near the pointwould be much better gaymer term, which translates to:>я близкo c тoчкoйor, more realistically:>вы гдe хyи пpoeбaлиcь? я oдин, блядь, нa тoчкe дpoчy, a ccaнныe пeдики мнe хyeм пo гyбaм вoдятwhich roughly translates back to:>where the fuck did you dicks get lost? I’m alone, fucking hell, jacking off at the point, while those piss stained faggots are rubbing their dicks on my lips
>>737117537the original english is already retarded. so the translation is actually on point
>>737115047HnH even let's you wear a Bandit Mask to hide from players that can see your name. Cool stuff.

>>737106063san andreas multiplayer has this, some servers have it so you can make them in an area around yourself or only the passengers inside the car you're drivingin general it's a security risk as you could host your own and grab IPs, at least it's disableable if you turn off the radio from the sound settings
>>737120286You clearly didn't play korean F2P online shooters in early 2000s.Those games had almost all of that.
>>737120504The main point is that being competent at the game loses you money. I'm sure some fps tried to implement some if not most of the shit as it is easy money.However, punishing the player for being good would kill any game.
>>737120732Whales would still whale, never underestimate retards with too much money to burn.Game like that would have some sort of hook, grace period to lure new players.After that all you either pull your credit card or fuck off.
Literally just a ship vs ship team pvp game that doesn't die due to dev incompetency. Please I miss it
>>737105826Black Desert had a pay2win outfit that hid your nametag outright and only revealed your name in chat. Now it just anonymizes the wearer since that was retarded and is nowhere near as popular.
>>737120954Fair enough.
>>737105905I remember playing this shovelware RPG where certain enemies could “rape” your party members.The game never explicitly said the ability was rape, but it had a 75% chance to cause nauseated (which prevented you from eating consumables) and insanity (which was basically permanent confusion).
>>737105826Dark Souls style invasion system where one of the joinable covenants is specifically about doing silly shit to make the host laugh, like the purple niggas from DS3 on crack
>>737105826why did you edit the australian to be upright?
>>737105905In the sims 3(?) some sims will only reproduce if raped through hypnosis or dizziness
>>737121593Covenants are such a complete fucking waste of opportunity in those games in general. Purple summons should have been allowed to get a victory by killing reds or blues or whites as well, that was their whole shtick, what's the point of letting them attack everyone if they still need to kill the host for their reward?They could have done so much more with the system. How about a covenant where you spawn in a player's world together with some lizard that goes in hiding, if you find and kill the lizard you get a reward but the host can also kill the lizard or attack you. (If you kill him you lose the lizard). Or like a special boss that allows reds to join the boss and blues to join the player and his gang, and other things. I feel like they completely gave up on experimenting with the summons formula in Elden Ring.
>>737105826can you make all these females?
>>737105826the ping in that match must be through the roof
>>737123410By my quick math, it was around 300ms between the server and the furthest player.
>>737123061Imagine a covenant that leans into the stealth stuff they keep adding to all their games, like if you hide for long enough you can curse the host's world and fuck up their world tendency or smth. Make the host do some prophunt to keep themselves from getting assraped by a million redguys.
>>737123061>Or like a special boss that allows reds to join the boss and blues to join the player and his gangMirror Knight was that, no?
>>737105826guys, i think
>>737123061>Or like a special boss that allows reds to join the boss and blues to join the player and his gang, and other things.Funnily enough, DS2 (ahead of it’s time as usual) had a boss that did almost exactly that.Basically, upon every third of it’s health lost, it would turtle up and summon one of several specialized NPC invaders to assist it mid-fight.However, if there was a white Summon Sign outside the boss door when you attempted the boss, it would summon a clone of the sign placer’s character instead.I forget if the sign placer actually gets to join in on the fight or the clone is simply AI controlled like the preset NPCs, but it’s still a really cool hidden feature that was unfortunately never used again.
>>737127694Yeah and it's stuck in the worst game in the series.
