[Rachel 385]

Name: Rachel

Age: 14

Favourite Genre of game?: FPS

Why do you like this genre of game ^? : Gets you thinking with tactics etc.

Favourite Game? : CSGO / Fallout 4

Why do you like this game ^?: Both FPS's, from cs go you must learn so much and there's plenty of game modes to keep you occupied. Fallout 4 has good graphics, open world and interesting AI's

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): A virtual reality, multiplayer, open-world FPS. Basically a mix between the two games above ^ and making them become reality. So you would have to run and look around in real life. Would be pretty hard in the making :)

Why do you like this genre of game ^? : Mainly because I have the ability to do my own choices and take my own path, and most open worlds look nice :)

Favourite Game? : Ratchet and Clank 2

Why do you like this game ^?: I was 3 when I played it, and I guess it was a very fun game back then, I tried it out again and even though its old, it's not cheesy, just fun.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): A game where you could go into any building and talk to any person, sort of GTA but on a bigger scale

Hope it helped m8

Name: Aaron

Age:16

Favourite Genre of game?: Stratergy/FPS/RTS

Why do you like this genre of game ^? :I enjoy crushing my enemy and listening to them squeal

Favourite Game? : Probably Supreme Commander, Ark or CS:GO(when im not comp banned)

Why do you like this game ^?:They are all fun to play with friends or on your own.

[UnSeen 1,036]

Name: Mathew

Age: 17

Favourite Genre of Game?: MOBA

Why do you like this genre of game ^?: The slight more complexity/diversity to each game than FPS games, while still being able to play it as competitively.

Favourite Game?: LoL for the MOBA genre and as the game I play most. Would put several RTS/TBS games above it though as they are less heated and always enjoyable.

Why do you like this game^?: I enjoy the further diversity to each game while maintaining the competitive nature that I first experienced on FPS games (for LoL). For RTS/TBS games, as I mentioned, they are the games I enjoy most when I'm not playing competitively as I find them relaxing while still making you think about what you do.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): Despite saying MOBA, RTS and TBS games are what I enjoy most, my ideal game would be a well made, thought out multiplayer survival game. I honestly feel the games currently available (such as DayZ), although enjoyable enough, are nowhere near the level they could be and I think a multiplayer survival game with a good engine and good looks would be great.

[JasperTheHamster 3]

Name: Neil

Age:22

Favourite Genre of game?: First person shooters

Why do you like this genre of game ? : You can play the genre competitively or you can play the game casually.

Favourite Game? : Half-Life 2

Why do you like this game ^?: Has a really good story to it, had puzzle in it which made you think and the physics engine was fantastic in it.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): My Ideal game would be a game that brought a new concept to the table. Or polished an already used idea to perfection. Such as the idea in Max Payne when he slows down time and now how SUPERHOT has used the concept to create a whole game around it. So I really just want a game that isn't just another Call of Duty and Battlefield copy.

[M1nt-l0u 1,235]

Name: Lewis

Age: 19

Favourite Genre of game?: Simulator

Why do you like this genre of game ^? : Love the in-depth details of real-world machines.

Favourite Game? : Grand Theft Auto IV / V

Why do you like this game ^?: Huge sandbox game with countless possibilities

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): Sandbox with many utility vehicles.

[Iszuka™ 10]

Name: Alex

Age: 23

Favourite Genre of game?: RPG

Why do you like this genre of game ^?: Immersive gameplay

Favourite Game?: Skyrim

Why do you like this game ^?: Immersive gameplay and lore. Replayability.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like):

Skyrim like RPG with endlessly randomly generated world, like Minecraft.

[Lurker 1]

Name: Kristijan

Age: 20

Favourite Genre of game?: RTS/RTT

Why do you like this genre of game ^? : It improves focus and concentration on multiple gaming aspects to achieve outmost perfect synchronization with adequate practice and competitive backdrop. The feeling of reward comes very satisfying after practice and practice.

Favourite Game? : I have always been indecisive of the favorite, but for the current standings I will choose Red Alert 2.

Why do you like this game ^?: Red Alert 2 was actually developed as an easier rts model of starcraft which wasn't always about micro than macroing and massing units. There isn't a very clear countering system so it comes from the combination of units you will utilize in engagements.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like):

My ideal game would be hybridizing genres into something very original from a theme-point. There isn't much fps-rts hybrids out there, so I guess varying levels of fusing and mixing elements from fps with rts can work out. The closest game/s I have seen to touch on this are Natural selection 2 and some hl2 mods (overwatch and empires).

I can be very accurate and concise of how I imagine my ideal game to be, but that would be selling company secrets :mrgreen:

Josh,

You could have saved yourself some work here by making this into a Google Form where it collates and automatically generates graphs and charts. I take it that you will have to manually input this data somewhere else?

Example:

[AlmightyJosh 1]

Its more user feedback side. Having certain people comment instead of choosing. Also have to do it manually and eviedence where my results have come from etc. But thanks for the tip!

[MrGibbyGibson 32]

You probs have enough however:

Age: 18

Favourite Genre of game?: FPS

Why do you like this genre of game ^? : Preferred over the others. Something I have done for multiple years over different consoles and games,

Favourite Game? : Currently, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive

Why do you like this game ^?: Different tactics and major updates to the game as a whole. Never ends, always updates with new things and improved things. Major events and gatherings happens along with community projects / servers for extra entertainment.

Your own ideal game (Give a brief idea of what it would be like): What would be nice is a FPS which is like CoD (but not as fast pace or as aids with the jump boosts, more of the MW2 / BO2 / MW3 time) with large maps and the benefits of tanks, jets and hele's from Battlefield. Would be kewl.
