I've got way too much free time! It's official!
I'm starting to make videos based in Vendetta, I need ideas.
Post em! I dont care how absurd or off the wall they are..give em to me!

Recreate vendetta entirely from scratch and make it open-source.
Heh,
Rogue, what would be the first thing you'd change if the game were open source?

Make a vendetta trailer, with the frig explosion in it, and some combat shots. That'd be cool.
Make a movie called "Ride of the Valkyries."
It opens with a squad of four valks soaring towards a pack of centaurs and vultures. The music kicks in and the valks start sunflaring the hell out of them. A fierce battle ensues, the valks are forced to dock, the vultures head to the docks to reapair while the centaurs run. Before the vults can get there, the valks are out and BOOM! Dead vults. Then the valks chase down the centaurs and blow em up. I would write out a screenplay, but that would just be silly.

actually a cool little 2min movie would be sweet advertising for GS, when they want more people flocking in.
A link from the webpage showing that would get me hooked:)
PS
most of the things I would change if it were opensource, most likely will be changed by the sounds of it by GS, most being improvements on already implemented stuff that I am sure will be done after the new features are completed etc etc etc.

First thing I would change if Vendetta were open source is a button on the docking screen "rearm & repair" that does both with one click. Especially rearming is really insane as it is right now. Nobody wants to partially arm rocket launchers. We want them fully loaded all the time. Clicking 16 times or typing 16 and then clicking is boring.
I concur. I, as an American, am SO lazy that I cannot BEAR to spend the extra second and a half it takes to enter a new number and click the button. ....I'm serious. :p
It's not really things I'd change if it was open source, it's always just nice to be able to have the source code available for such an awesome application as this. I have learned many invaluable things from looking at other people's source. Also, it's always fun to try tweaking something, and then testing it out. In my opinion, it's one of the best ways to learn. However, I'm not sure how this would work with a MMOG like Vendetta. Some people (unfortunately) would be bound to use the source code for malicious activities, i.e. modifying their copy of the game to give them lots of money every time they, for instance, logged on. The problem in this world, I've decided, is people. :p

NA NA NA NAAA NA NA ANAAA NAAAAA
oh, sry.
Uhhh, yeah I like the idea of a documentary about the SDF, the IN-SAS, and the SM, (maybe teh DSG too).
I like thre "rearm&repair too" or maybe just "rearm all to full"
Also, I'll write the scrrenplay for "Ride of the Valkyries" I liek the idea! I'm not kidding, I'm gonna start now.

First thing I'd do: un-nerf the valk.
You ALL know it was better with 18000hp

Um...how bout a little more off-topicness..
raybondo started it! I swear!

I'd compile it with extreme optimizations just for those last 2 fps. :D Actually, I'd probably use the network code to write bots.
---Next idea---
Create a vendetta mod for all of the following:
UT2004
UT2003
StarCraft
Homeworld2 (this one would be cool)
Need For Speed Underground
---Next idea after that---
a1k0n said that if I wanted I could rewrite the sound backend to use alsa instead of OSS. My skillz aren't that good, but maybe yours are. Go for it. :P

-For some reason, I get the feeling these documentaries wouldn't be very interesting. (One night, on IRC, a bunch of Vendetta nerds decided to get together and make a nerdy gang!)

How about you make a pre-rendered version of vendetta :P
Or... I'd like a video of people smacking into stations and bumping into each other as part of the pilot instructional videos.

@Alien:
get 10 players to blow up the frigate with you filming it :)
Other than that, a cute little promo of Space Quake...eh, I mean Vendetta, with a couple of in-fight scenes would prolly be nice.
@Rougelazer
I might have something for Alsa 0.5 - just realized that I have to rewrite a sound-backend for Alsa 1.0, since the old code is both ugly and deprecated (*sigh*)

if it were open source... I'd port it to the xbox :)
already made that suggestion;p
OMG - A mod for NFS:U? Are you frickin crazy? ooh, DRIVE a valk. that's the answer.
I was thinking more of a frigate...
