so some big money developer decided the sun shines out of your *kitten* one day and tells you, we're making a new MMO, YOUR MMO!
what would it be? ^_^
me personally id make a EVE/GTA4 mash up, that doesnt result in APB...
all the permadeath/marketplace/owning space from EVE, but built around the giant citys and multiplayer action of GTA4 (instead of "warping" people would use bridges between city-esc islands (think the 3 big islands from the game x 1000! .. lol)
go on... what would yours be

I'd do a zombie apocalypse survival type mmo. Where your guilds are like survival colonies, and you could choose to raid others for their supplies. Not sure what type of endgame content there would be, it's a work in progress lol.0

An MMO based on the Hyrulian world of Legend of Zelda. So many races. So many attributes. I wonder when will Nintendo step up to make it.0
-
Mine would be in the Firefly universe. Little bit of Eve Online, WoW with the ability to play your own story like SWotoR0

I thinkthat would be fun, you could cooperate and trade or steal/attack.0 -

but might be difficult to design as MASSIVELY multiplayer game, might need to do more like an online play where you have 5 teams of 5. so people would sign into a lobby etc.
I want one where everyone is a unicorn princess and you have to fight the invading hordes of angry bears who want to destroy unicorn land because they hate sparkles and rainbows. They're like, really REALLY angry bears. Demon bears even. Maybe.0 -

It would be hard, and sandboxy, so no one would play it.
no tab targeting
all collision detection
no health/mana bars...
Open PVP with looting.
ability to build cities/shape landscape.0 -
man or group of friends have harped on about a pokemon MMO ever since we first got into mmo's (tho the new WOW pet battles is damn close lol but not the same)
and FIRELFY MMO!
I always imagined it like GW1 where you had the NPC's that filled your party
banks you seen "dayZ" the arma 2 mod? thats pretty simular to what you say, proper kill each other for supplies.. or loot citys.. oh and zombies all over0 -

This idea made me drool a little.0 -

Yeah! I've contiplated that since Pokemon Blue/Red.0 -
A while back I came up with an idea for one:
It would be mecha-based. When you start out, you choose one of three mecha:
Thunder class - Slow but heavy hitting and lots of armor, with thruster upgrades that allow it to temporarily be able to close distance between it and targets (think of your typical tank class)
Cyclone class - Basically the "all rounder." Medium range and survivability, but some extras thrown in such as the ability to later upgrade it to be able to get some more utility or some better ranged attacks.
Lightning class - Extremely fast and capable of dishing out high burst damage but lacking long term staying power of any kind (low survivability and sustained DPS is not as good). Mostly a ranged specialist but can get good at melee as well. (Think of this as that one class in every MMO that is extremely cooldown-dependent. Failure to micromanage your cooldowns or mistime them and you're dead in the water).
This is the basic framework for your mecha. You can upgrade different aspects of them by purchasing gear that also customize them more to your playstyle. Like in EVE Online, all high-end gear will be player-crafter. Gameplay mechanics themselves would emphasize fast paced action rather than grindy MMO combat. The goal here is to make an Action MMO that keeps grinding to a minimum and keeps the actual combat aspect of the game fun enough to where what little grinding you do have to do never gets old.
The world would be based on Open world PvP and missions. When you initially create your character you choose an alignment of either Empire, Federation (the two main factions which are at war) or Mercenary. Mercenary basically means you can go either/or at any point at your whim and enter the smaller outpost cities of both factions. However you are denied access to the main capital cities of each faction.0 -
Pre-NGE SWG but focus on space more where guilds can build and man capital ships and such.0
-
Lotro..only with the amount of developers that Blizzard can afford for WoW and a bit less of a "lore" straight jacket so that you can have monsters in the Shire now and then and other thigns that would scare the hell out of you.
Actually, thinking about it a Ravenloft based MMO would be quite cool and it would be good to wander around old house and sleepy villages hunting down vampires, werewolves and other scary creatures. MOments when I feel fear in games tend to be among the best (aside from laugh outlod moments, but I doubt a Secret of Monkey Islands MMO is doable).0
