Lets call it the little pony strikes back.
Really, can we have a fast description of it? Is it a Sci Fi Adventure?

yo i was makeing a game too 3rd person game with zombies and vehicles kinda like grand theft auto but mixed with resident evil and i was goona make it online it worked out well till i tried to update it and deleted the thing weel not really deleted but corrupted the world anyways what were you useing or are you useing for your engine or did you make yours and what actore studio you useing is it possibly in maya 7???
edit: try a one word name such as popular games as hexen,diablo, halo,quake,fable,unreal,and doom may i suggest a kick ass name..... i think possibly dominion,advocate,crisis and if you wanna make an expansion just put a prefix or suffix as all them always doo but try to keep it one short word that describes your game
note: and plz people do not ask him what is his game about because if he is smart he wont tell you... you could steal his idea and make your own.
edit 2: i belive that it should not be army based because then your guns have to be acurate and all that i believe the best is probably a game that is scfi look at all the most popular games you dont need a plot or anything just hard enemies a good ai and some kick ass weapons probably 50% of
all gamers dont even look at cg scenes or actualy read the whole plot keep that in mind so make guns were you dont have to be acurate also add some startegy possibly sheilds take models from halo and inject them if you want but take the jaykle sheild make that in there i dont know just some ideas trust me i may not work in programming but i am a level desighner

Maybe you should worry about making the game before you give it a name.

FPSCreator is teh sh*t it is so awsome. but u have to make ur own models skins and maybe some scripting, it wont be a good game with out them. im making an FPS and it is so cool, just... i cant get the AR to work, but everything else works, weird huh!

well here is a hint on all things fps.
every code for everytype of game has been precreated if you need a gun just download some source code and use it im sure you can find the ar source code some where and make your model dependent on it
btw never used fps creator more of a genesis 3d fan(old school) but also like ogre because im a proud owner of maya 7 so i can make kick ass graphics if you lived closer mb i would help you out or help your ideas further
