I havent played any FPS MMOs per se, but I have done a bit of jamming on X-Box live with Red Dead Redemption. That game is awesome, and could easily be used as the basis to make a real MMO out of.
Features of game I liked....The PVE was good, and if you were on an open shard, you had to deal with random PVP which could be fun at times. It could get annoying though as well, and there were times 2 high levels would show up to camp your team. When you got 2 on 6, and they still whup ya, you know things are bad. :P
Game had several mini games as well....horse racing, Texas Holdem, Liars Dice, Blcack Jack, Horse Shoes, and Five Finger Fillet. I really like Liars Dice.
Only have like half of the acheivements, and I put a bit of time into game. Probably in the 75 to 100 hr range, or more.
Asking Devs to make AAA sandbox titles is like trying to get fine dining on a McDonalds dollar menu budget.
Answer: Because a FPS like Battlefield 3 works mostly as expected, and also, BF3 looks pretty nice imo. The environment offers the player alot of challenges and options.

Try PlanetSide 2 when it comes out and you will never have to ask that question again.
i dont like FPSmulti like BF, MW or CS
but i love FPS MMO like M.A.G and possibly Planetside 2
because simply of more players ( 256 for M.A.G ) and possibly 1000+ players in 1 map for Planetside2 ( as opposed to 32 from MW, BF, CS)
So What Now?
