District 9

[Rogue Element]

[ProfessorCrow]

Excellent short film and I'm highly looking forward to the film.

Scenarios may be a bit difficult based on it , however.

...Aliens and such.

bringing a new meaning to illegal aliens but this does look like a good movie and might give ideas about loadouts

This movie looks like it will be excellent (even if it only provides a political commentary - if you think about it you'll get it eventually).

I really like the viral advertising they have going on, especially.

As for scenarios, I could see a scenario game based off of it, but it would involve makeup artists and such. Also, remember that the game would essentially be a variation of a king of the hill scenario (basically, there is a designated person that 3-4 seperate factions are fighting to capture and hold for the rest of the day). The SFX makeup would come into play with the NPC alien characters (if the planners decided to use the aliens at all).

(if the planners decided to use the aliens at all)

I think they'd have do, to really pull off a scenario.

Wouldn't be THAT hard to do really, now that I think about it.

The Short Film uses some Halloween Masks and Robes, looks pretty nice. (Nice as in, not laughing everytime you see one of them scurrying across the street in a game)

Well, the plot of the movie is that there is this one guy who contracts an alien virus that rewrites his DNA, thereby allowing him to use alien gadgetry. This makes him simultaneously the most wanted and most hunted man in the world. Everybody and their mother wants to get their hands on him. Since in the movie the aliens are all confined to District 9, you could say that the game is set somewhere else and only use the makeup/funky costume on the hunted guy (thereby saving money if you are running the game on a budget/don't want to bother with NPCs).

I do, however, see where you're coming from. I wouldn't mind playing in a version set inside of D9.

This is true!

Kind of like a Take and Hold , but with a moving objective.

there'd have to be more than one Faction to make it work though.

The Contractors VS. Bounty Hunters, perhaps?

I was thinking something along the lines of:

United States
Russia
European Union
China
Japan
PMC group
bounty hunters

(This is probably way too many different factions, but it gives you an idea of how badly that one guy is wanted.)

Each faction has specific orders to bring the mutated human back alive and (preferably) unharmed, but to shoot to kill on sight any of the members of the other factions.

[ProfessorCrow]

Sounds like a plan. I'd be in on it, and since the movie will probably be excellent, I can see several others will be too.

Heck, If we are talking about writing Ops based off of TV shows and Movies......I would recomend an Op based off of the movies "Escape from New York" and "Red Dawn".
