first off i have been dreaming of an airsoft video game for forever now, so I have come up with a bunch of ideas for one. Also, these are all just ideas so don't be too negative if u don't particularly like some of them...
- FPS, i just don't see this type of game as a 3PS - Ultimate Customization, one of my favorite parts about airsoft is knowing i can change my rig, loadout, camo, gun, attachments and even spray paint or color fill etc. to get a better look - Addons/upgrades, U absolutely need to include an upgrade part of the game and feature different gears, wirings, mosfets, pistons, springs, gearbox shells, batteries, ris, new stocks and fore grips/pistol grips, inner barrel, hop up, hop up bucking + nub, etc. - then you need to make the game realistic, but not realistic. what I mean is as you upgrade your guns they get better and better but they can never be OP, same as when a stock gun is being used it cannot be ridiculously under powered either - a good way (IMO) to use these features would be to incorporate some sort of currency or point system where you could cash in your earned points to upgrade your gear and buy customizations and addons. - also (example for realism) if you can incorporate something like buying pouches for your vest, and only holding gear with the pouches you bought and being able to use different helmets, goggles, masks and half masks. - and finally it HAS to have an online multiplayer mode (obviously). these are most of my ideas and i will let you know if i think of any more

Theres no way id have enough money to do that.

I need money to even get this started again.. money I don't have right now.

Just make sure it's better than all those crappy paintball games that have been made. then again, just the fact that it's an AIRSOFT game rather than a paintball game should make it better. But anyways, here are some things that I think should be included:

-Maybe a REAL military ranking system (like Army or Marines rank system)
-LOTS of attatchment options (scopes, sights, grips, different magazines, lazers, flashlights)
-Choose ammo type (.12, .20, .25, etc.)
-Players being formed into squads and fireteams, with squad and fireteam leaders, so players aren't just moving randomly on their own, and there is startegy involved.
-different map environments - some forest, some desert, some urban, and maybe even some arctic.

Maybe what I'm requesting is TOO mil-sim-ish to be considered but i think it would be fun!

8.start a field
9.customize and buy equipments live nvg ,mags ,stuff for vests and bbs
10. Get a weekly income that u can spend on stuff
11.able to play online with others with the equipments u bought

I also think you should be able to change your name. Not every one would like the name "U".

What if the game had a currency system? You earn cash sums by winning tournaments which you can buy guns, upgrades, or attachments for the real life price. What if you took every product airs plat has and put it in the game for whatever the price airs plat sells it for? What if it had a store system of many different real stores such as airsoft gi, airs plat, and evike where everyday they have different guns on sale?

Also i think there should be two types of battles. One were new crappy players can have backyard battles as sort of a tutorial and then organized games as advanced.

Whatever you do: DO NOT TRY TO MAKE IT LIKE CALL OF DUTY in that you can run through 20 bullets without dying. I would make it like 2 hits for guns and one hit for snipers. If it were one hit for every gun you could just spray and kill everyone.

What if you could design your own forts or maps and other teams could come in an challenge you and if they win they get your map and you lose it?

There is a site where you can ask the public for donations, but I've forgotten the name.

Edit: Ah, yes that's the one. Thanks for the link!
