I feel a modern day samurai class would make for a good glass cannon type of deal.

Is there a facepalm smilie? I want one now.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
What if we called them street samurai?

Look, you don't have to be so hard on yourself. Just because I came up with the idea first doesn't mean you can't use it.

Why did it go from "let's make a good game" to " let's make this as awesome as possible by putting things which are cool randomly together"?

What if it was in a highschool setting and instead of alien invaders it could be a rival school? I think everyone can identify with high schoolers more than space army guys and you could still keep that modern setting.

I think you should be able to customize the way the soldiers look. It's very important for me as a player to be able to think my fighters are unique.

Maybe there could be some kind of hat system? Like if you unlock certain achievements, you get special hats for your army.

What do you think?

New idea: Units of the samurai class speak only in haiku. For example:

There you are! Hyde, meet your boss. Facts, meet your subordinate.
Also, Support-Medic.
Focuses on keeping the team alive, gaining bonuses to healing with medkits, the ability to use more per mission, and giving healing recipients bonuses to stats.

Alright.

Heavy 1: Fat samurai. Uses katanas (and possibly naginatas if you want variety) Low movement due to being fat as hell, but can take a lot more hits than most units. A special ability could involve them rolling around like a katamari?

Heavy 2: THE YETI. Recently uncovered from the Arctic, the humble yeti uses its own claws as weaponry. They'd be slanted more towards offense and obviously would have high cold resistance. Perhaps as a nod to Umaro they could throw other units? Imagine launching the fat samurai...

Heavy 3: OP's MOM LOL

Do not engage. Just tell me to go back to Kiwi Farms where I waste days upon days crying about how I wasted years upon years on SA. Did you know I was personally responsible for SA's rise in popularity in the 00's? It's true! Just come to the Farms and find out how! It's the trash kingdom I deserve.
I feel like having the Penetrator from the Saint's Row games would add immersion and a sense of realism

I think there's a market for an XCOM with a more Christian spin. Perhaps set in the End Times? The invasion narrative would fit well within the Apocalypse framework i think.

Edit: Please don't threadshit, trying to be helpful here
