hello today i wanted to discuss what we all want in the next metroid
news about it apparently in dk there is samuses ship spotted when cranky was announced at vgx
oh and is in what we al want i mean what we personally want so to start i want for

1.is online multiplayer coop or deathmath or survival

2. i honestly would like a horror story
so story wise : samus has been chasing someone through space and gets leaded to a lost planet where she lands on it and the place is trapped to break the ship that only a technical team can fix so she is stranded and signal is lost then think of the game as first person dead space

coop story: a technician a doctor a heavy artilitiesand a pilot sent as a rescue team to find samus and come across the same things

coop :survival works like nazi zombies build baricades kill zombie like monsters and find supplies and open world where you use the whole planet which is remans of citys labs and woods so basicaly earth but its been destroyed by a disease caried by slugs carried on to pigs then the infected pigs lead on to humans then zombies what do you think and want

I just want another Metroid game where Samus does not speak. Metroid Prime 3 was great that way. That's how it should be done.

I don't care much for Multiplayer. I just want a long, good singleplayer game. I don't think CoOp would be a good idea for the series. It's all about isolation and feeling 'alone'.

Dead Space 3 did CoOp, and it's one of the reasons it's the worst game in the series.

Well...

1. If there was co-op, it would kinda ruin the experience. Metroid games are designed to make you feel alone, with only your wits. As for the deathmatch thing, doesn't Metroid Prime: Hunters have something like that?

2. Again, it just wouldn't feel like Metroid if there was a horror story. Well, actually, if that were to happen, it would depend on how the devs would implement it (the story). But who would Samus be chasing? It can't be Ridley, since he's dead.

3. See answer 1.

4. Zombies? Why zombies? It doesn't make that much sense within the Metroid universe. Metroid isn't really made to have zombies in it. And supplies? How exactly would that work? I mean, none of the Metroid games have you building supplies to make the weapon upgrades. Would it just be a race to find Chozo statues? There's no ammo for the weapons, so you could just stand there and shoot all day. It just doesn't feel right.

These ideas are interesting, but it wouldn't feel like an authentic Metroid experience. It would just be something like Call of Metroid.

@unknownnico i meant zombie like monsters so metroid monsters but more zombie like
and horror as in creepy atmosphere like small hall way with two rooms next to you with giant wiindows completely dark with busted wires from the ceiling that produces small light that make you feel a jumpscare somwhere and make you have goose bumps andhave effects at right when yout start to get goosebumps a couple boxs fall or a wind gets tapped at or cracked or smashed
and coop dosnent affect samuses story think of it as a dlc where it shows you someone elses story except as coop like farcy 3 with normal guns so single player is metroid and coop is farcry 3 meets alien in metroid

Characters supporting the player in Metroid Prime was already covered in Prime 3 and it was fun only as that one sequence. I think it's better if you're alone most of the time, because Metroid games always felt lonely.
As for zombies, they were in Echoes - the marines that got infected by Ing. Again, having to blast a lot of these would just get boring and tedious.
Survival scenario would work well, as it was an important part of Zero Mission (SA-X) and Echoes (dark world physically hurting you), but it would have to be carefully inserted between exploring and discovery missions. I would gladly see a game where Samus is stranded on an unknown planet and tries to recover her equipment, while being chased by really fierce enemies (some would require you to fend them off and escape the area at the same time).

@havokpants Well, that might actually work, as long as it doesn't take away from the exploration that the Metroid series is known for.

How about Zen Studios makes a new Metroid Pinball!?!?!

I don't want Samus to be stripped down in terms of character in the next Metroid game, but I also don't want it to be intrusive either. I would prefer her to be voiced again, but in recorded logs on flora and fauna, lore, upgrades, obstacles and setting. It would serve as an additional story on top of the text of logbook entries.

I want an arena type of multiplayer again similar to Hunters, with bots and online available. If that were excluded though, I would want a NG+ akin to what the original Metroid has where the player has the chance to start the game as Samus with much of her arsenal and with less wear. I am talking about a modern Metroid's take on Justin Bailey, not just Samus playable in her Zero Suit.

I would prefer the story to unfold through scans, a voiced expansion of Samus' Notes and through the environment. So the game would be like Super Metroid with the additional backstory meat of a Prime game. No cutscenes involved with progression.

My preference for the game's perspective would be for it to be a 3D Metroid game taking inspiration from Metroid Blast and Kid Icarus Uprising, but enable camera changes much like what's in Super Mario 3D World for platforming sequences. I want to see auto-aim go out, and 3D Metroid to bring in Ice Beam-based platforming along with more platforming in general.

Edit: I would like the series to try a no map game again. Technology has been improved more than enough to allow navigation to be done through notable environment details. In addition, I want the game to be very open. I want to be able to stumble into super-heated rooms without the Varia Suit and come into contact with enemies that I'm not equipped for. I want to mix up the boss order and upgrade order. I want a setting that strives to be the player's playground more so than what the series' has done so far.

I'd like to see Prime 4. No more talking for Samus....

Maybe Samus is picking up on an SOS call and she ends up crash landing on the planet it was coming from. She has no radio contact and she can't send an SOS of her own. You could start off trying to find things to repair your ship with and recover your equipment. But then there's an unorthodox number of downed ships on the planet. So you go around, scanning, trying to figure out what happened to the survivors. You could explore caves, abandoned facilities, the downed ships, volcanoes etc. Maybe you're being hunted. I wouldn't want it to turn into a horror game at all though. But just make it intense and isolating. A couple well placed jump scares could be fun though.

I'm not into online, so whatever they do with that won't make me or break me. It's always nice to have it though.

This is all I'd need to know to get hyped.

But I'd really like to see some sort of prequel to Prime 3, where Samus is sometimes working with Ghor, Rundas, and Gandraya. Because I think they were such memorable characters with rich backstories; moreso than any of the GF soldiers and Adam.

How about a sequel to Fusion? Something in 2.5D?

I just want them to make a new Metroid that continues the story after Fusion.

just a nintendo gamer on a nintendo related site (who wouldve seen that one coming?)

Personally, I'd like to see something like Other M, but greatly improved. I would like the new Metroid to be to Other M what Super Metroid is to Metroid 1. One main improvement they could make in that game, is allow you to move while in first person mode, just like how you can move in Skyward Sword. Move slowly while in first person view, and quickly while in third person view.

Something like Metroid Blast could be fun, too, though. It would also be perfect for the survival game where you have to fight loads of Metroids.
