this wouldnt by any chance be able to count as a game design internship, would it?

This seems more like proof-of-ability work than an attempt to revolutionize the industry. I don't think it's a terrible tragedy if originality is sacrificed for the end result of an actual game being produced.

Doesn't have to be something totally new and revolutionary to be out of the ordinary. Example, I wouldn't want to make a multiplayer game in the same vein as Unreal Tournament or Counter-Strike, but I think it would be awesome to do one where it's players on the ground FPS style vs. a commander RTS style.

I could contribute a model or two as long as I know exactly what to make.

something similar crossed my mind, with an added touch of Dota, i guess that's for later discussion though.

i doubt any 'official institutions' as schools would accept it as being an internship, but i suppose it also depends on their stance towards mods in general.

i see where you're coming from, and personally i hate it when i'm asked to 'just wing it' but at the same time, we have to stay realistic, and realise we can't get concept art made for every single piece.

i know there's a few people here who're quite capable of delivering decent concept, and as long as we're not aiming for AAA quality, i think we can get to a fair balance on provided concept, and the opposite.
on top of that, if we can get something decent off the ground, it becomes easier for other people to motivate themselves to join in, so if we get to that point, i'm sure i can convince a few other people to contribute.

everyone else would also be welcome to invite friends and so to contribute.

Would a mobile game be out of the question? I mean, it would be sort of tough, I don't have an iPhone... but if we could some how make it on Android, that would be kinda cool.

We need to talk.

i've already drawn up a design doc for something similar.

Funny enough, so have I, though it's just one multi-player mode in a much larger game.

I'm a huge fan of 4X games like Sins of a Solar Empire, though I feel most of them are rather...narrow.
