Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142, ET:QW, CoD are all great. But what if you had warfare with results? Think of it: You have a website with background information regarding the start of the war. From there a map that shows the current battles (possibly progress as well) and you click on which ever one you want to enter. The developers could be in control of planning/plotting how the story unfolds, but the players ultimately determine the outcome of the battles. You'd have set times, say a month at a time, where the statistics from the battles are tabulated and the results point to the next phase of the war. You could allow for character development if you like, but it wouldn't be required. Medals could be awarded and so on. As I said, the battles would simply rage on until the next phase. There could be a cooldown time, but that may not be needed.
Has anything like this been talked about?
