I'm not sure how much this has been requested, I did not look completely over all the treads in the forums.
I would surely love for a third person shooter aspect.
As well, I am looking forward to making multiple game invisionments and would definitely desire a ability cast bar.
In with the abilities, I would also like to see the character creation process to extend into skills and abilities as the characters progress.
Thank you for your time, and have a nice day.

I realize now that maybe 3rd person goes against everything gameguru stands for.

Ignore the idea, I realize how important it is coming from FPSC.

As for the spell bar, icons, and progression. Those I would believe to be the best content you could make for character customization. Even in some of the newer shooters they have special moves or equipment boons that affect gameplay in its own right.

Take it in stride if you believe these are dumb ideas. If you feel that way, I will.

I think it is important for a character to progress and develop during the course of a game. Adding a couple of stats and editing their effects on how the game works is important. Eg: Marksmanship stat could increase damage with sniper rifles. Persuasion stat could increase positive dialogue options with an NPC (when and if dialogue tools are incorporated into GameGuru), demolitions could allow characters to plant or detect mines and booby-traps, Stealth can reduce character noise and detection, etc. These don't have to be highly detailed roleplaying skillsets, but basic stats that allow a character to be specialised towards playing in a certain style. The more a player can customise and identify with their character, the stronger the game experience.

optional 3rd person would be nice though... if there´s actually definable player characters that is
a cutsomizable ability/ skill system would also be great, that´s for sure ...
