I know it isn't an "IP," but I want to see more than anything a developer that releases MMOS set in both Antiquity and in the Middle Ages... and not just some small, crappy little MMO, but a major release. I don't care what features that it has in order to make it good, I just want to be in the world as a hoplite or something and say "this is an amazing game."

Pokemon, even though I long lost interest in both the show and the games I think a living breathing world filled with pokemon and trainers would be great. It would be mainly a PvP game but I don't really know how the mechanics would work. Would you just give orders to the pokemon or would you actually actively control the pokemon? Of course there would be no classes as such however pokemon each have their own element(s) and speciality.
This, pokemon is perfect for an mmo, PvE is the generic gym badge hunt, trading is already covered, PvP is obvious - and the game already has PvP tournament set-ups... it just seems so obvious to me...
So what IP would you love to see become the next major MMO, but are pretty sure won't?
I personally would love to see a Robotech/Macross MMO.
I've always enjoyed the lore in that series and would be really happy to see a MMO set in that world. What fan wouldn't want to be a Veritech pilot or a Zentradi warrior.
Seeing how the IP is pretty old and not very popular anymore. I imagine it'll never find itself to MMO status.
Nice a Robotech mmo would be nice indeed I also wouldn't mind seeing a Mechwarrior mmorpg (which I don't think is really all that unlikely).
but yeah, to call this game Fantastic is like calling Twilight the Godfather of vampire movies....
Mechwarrior, and it's cool to see all the support here for it.
Out of curiosity who owns the IP to Mechwarrior? Activision?
After some checking this is what I came up with:
I can explain.
First off, FASA (Freedonian Air and Space Administration) created Battletech, Shadowrun, and Crimson skies three awesome table top games that spread around the world like wildfire.
This attracted game designers to make a Battletech videogame based off of the BT universe, this was Mechwarrior (not to be confused with the RPG Mechwarrior, which is part of the Battletech franchise)
Mechwarrior (games) became their own franchise apart from battletech, despite sharing the same universe.
Microsoft buys FASA in a hostile takeover, produces Mech 4 then sits on all intelectual material as their crap makeovers (Mechassault, Crimson skies: High road to revenge) did not sell well.
Wizkids wants to pick up the table top gaming market, and buys the rights of the boardgame Battletech, from Microsoft owned FASA
Wizkids produces the Crimson Skies and Battletech miniature games. They suck hard. Wizkids goes bankrupt.
Hasboro buys the dying WizKids and Wizards of the Coast. Still sitting on intellectual material.
Smith and Tinker purchases a lease of intelectual property from Microsoft to produce FASA material, Mechwarrior, Crimson skies, Shadowrun
S&T works with MekTek to create the Mechwarrior Free Release: Coming some time before Armageddon
MW:LL comes up independently, rocks hard.
S&T shows video of Mechwarrior: Reboot, a true to cannon re imagining of early Battletech
Harmony gold still pissed about Fig1. (below) that happened in the early 80's Claims warhammer not a battlemech, despite now being 20% different from the blatant knockoff it used to be."
But seeing how the story unfolds I just don't see how it can be made into an mmo.
Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries...
I don't know if this has been mentioned during this long thread, and if it is, I apologize; but I have always wanted to see an MMO based upon Babylon 5. Set during the lead-up to the Shadow War, with playable races such as Human, Membari, Narn, Centauri, etc. Each specie could have their starter home planet, with the tutorial ending with the character arriving on transport to the station itself. But, as Sheldon would say on Big Bang Theory, "Babylon 5 isn't even realy sci-fi." I disagree with that, but it's still funny.
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons as an MMORPG in the Dragonlance universe.
There would be two playable factions, like WoW. I like World of Warcraft but in a Dragonlance setting would be the bees-knees.
Faction 1 - Paladine (God)
Races:
Human
Wood Elf
High Elf
Half Elf
Dwarf
Kender
Gnome
faction 2 - Takhisis (Goddess)
Races:
Human
Ogre
Dark Elf
Draconian
Hobgoblin
Goblin / Orc
Half Orc
PVP and PVE realms and PVP only zones but in the world of Krynn and with some rules changes, especially in regards to the three moons and how they govern magic use, i.e. white robe = fireballs (Invocation / Evocation) and protective magic, slower to level but very powerful at end game. Red robe = Invocation and demonology and necromancy mixes, levels slightly faster than a white robe with xp, black robes = Invocation, demonology and necromancy and other harmful spheres of magic, fastest mage class to level with xp but not as powerful as a white robe at end game but only slightly weaker in number of spells able to cast before resting (if that system is used).
Playing: Darkfall New Dawn (and planning to play Fallout 76) Favourite games have included: UO, Lineage2, Darkfall, Lotro, Baldur's Gate, SSX, FF7 and yes the original Wizardry on an Apple IIe

western MMO, I thought this way before Red dead came out but this really made me want it more, a western MMo would be awesome.
I know it isn't an "IP," but I want to see more than anything a developer that releases MMOS set in both Antiquity and in the Middle Ages... and not just some small, crappy little MMO, but a major release.

This and this and some more of this!
Didn't read the rest of the thread but I wouldn't mind any sort of cyber-punk setting if I could get it.
Mechwarrior would be choice too...

FASA!

I'm almost certain it is owned by Microsoft now, I remember that from the last few mechwarrior titles released on pc, could be different now though.

They let it lapse, Tinker & Smith picked it up, FASA.

hmm, would like a might and magic one. but someone said that.
and i think a fairytail mmo would be amazing, it just blends with the genre so easy.
vampire the masquerade, or some kind of resident evil 'survive the zombies' mmo.. sorry burnt out on fantasy mmo's
edit: or Star Control II
Easy one: Macho Women with Guns
I'm pretty sure to never see an MMORPG of that one. Oh, but I would love to see such an potential political incorrect game

that would have to be fun

I'd like to see a Terminator MMO, based in post Judgement Day.. Open world pvp, similar gameplay to Planet Side with bases to capture and vehicles.
Make "World of Drugs and Beer" for me and I'll be a happy guy.
Any MMO based on any Krofft IP would be Horror for sure.
Dragonlance
