*Dramatic voice*...I suppose with my name and avatar that this interest check was only a matter of time...

Before I go off the rails in shaping my ideas, I'd like to see if this concept alone is even an interest for people.

As you may know, Mad Max is entirely set within a post-apocalyptic Australia. Quoting wiki here:

The war in the Middle East between Saudi Arabia and Iran left the oil fields ablaze which started the economical collapse due to lack of oil across the globe. 7 Sisters Petroleum was not able to fulfill their contracts with governments which causes major oil shortages and escalation of chaos and violence among the population across the world.


You don't have to know anything about the movies or the lore, as the setting will be in the United States of America, around the same time frame as Mad Max: Fury Road, where civilizations of old are long gone and in its place are the weird and deranged freakazoids of the Americana wastelands. We'd essentially be of an old guard, a patrol unit that safeguards one of the more normal oil settlements in a rural area. Our job is to keep the freaks from raiding our town and escorting haulers between other settlements. Expect a lot of car chasing, beat em up/mash em up over-the-top action.

Yay or nay?

@Infamous Empath You kid but you're probably right haha.

Haven't decided yet on location. I think a city setting would be interesting but HELL YES there will be a long ass chase in store.

It's pretty fun. Plays kind of like the Arkham games as far as ground combat goes, vehicle combat mostly relies on the harpoon, so upgrading it is vital. The story is really good too, I think. Definitely worth buying though.

@Treue Oh man, plays like the Arkham games? Nice! It's only 20 bucks on the PSN store too. This will have to be the next game I pick up.

I wrote a story set in the not too distant future where it was a dystopia and a gang of a dozen freedom fighters were driving about as many cars all over the country fighting the evil government. Every one of them had muscle cars. It will be hard for me to pick just one lol

Oh I already know how my car is gonna turn out.

78 trans am, fitted with the original Viper 8 liter V10, supercharged, possibly all wheel drive swapped? Not sure about that yet. Beefed up suspension regardless though, and I'm thinking off-road tires.

@Infamous Empath that sounds pretty badass. Maybe we can mesh ideas? Perhaps a gang big enough to cover most of US is establishing itself as the one true governing law and they're looking to make and mess of our operations.

Mine is going to make a vroom vroom sound and maybe some gun attachments for a few pew pews.

Yeah, kinda like Into the Badlands or Revolution, where there are like half a dozen main militias and warlords who control various parts of the country. I mean, Fury Road kinda has that, with the one guy controlling the water, another controlling bullets, etc.

But in my story, there is sci-fi-ish tech like holograms and stuff.

Something like this, basically. Bigger engine and suspension though, plus off-road tires.

And technically shit didn't hit the fan until mid 90s late 90s from the original films so we can push to like 95 for our RP just to give some more leeway for your vehicle selection.
