I was wondering what kinda of MMO you are all hoping for? I get many ideas of MMOs I think would be fun as hell to play all the time but they kind of come and go so I ill add more as I think of them.
One of my current MMOs I think would be a cool idea would be an Alien vs Predator MMO. Like with a home planet for each race and constant battle for territory like Planetside.(human of course also being one of the races)
Id also like to see a game like EVE only FPS style and faster movement and combat. Also I hate when you get to a space station and you hit dock and your ship just dissapears and your automatically in the station. I want to actually fly in and dock my ship manually, exit the craft, and go to my business. I am a big fan of feeling like im actually in control.
Those are my current ideas I will proably think of more later. As u can tell right now im on SciFi and PVP type games :P

I'd like to see a MMO that's similar to MP Batteltech 3025. It would'nt be an RPG. It would be a sim just like the PC mechwarrior series. I'm thinking that the overall warfare would play alot like shattered galaxy with players just dropping into hotspots on this or that planet and trying to take control. Each house and clan would have objectives based on battletech history and get certain bonuses and advantages for meeting those objectives. At the highest level the game would look like risk. Players would not play at that high of a level though. The admin would act the heads of houses and clans and set objectives accordingly.
Players would own their own mechs and be able to customize them in different ways. Clan and House players could move up in rank according to their performance and be allowed to form other players into lances and eventually whole battalions. And let's not forget salvage ;-)
Aside from that I'd like to see Warhammer 40K done in much the same way as Magic: The Gathering Online. With Players buying "virtual" miniatures, skinning them and then taking their armies out to fight other player's armies.
I too would enjoy seeing a wide scale Battletech MMO as well, and have it come with a contorl panel like the one used in Steel Battalion. Have some lite RPG elements tied into it, like LRM or Laser targeting skills, or weight class piloting certifications.
You would also have to have Tanks, Planes, and Battlearmor like they had in Lone Wolf.
A really good cowboy one would be awesome.
I just thought of this!! A survival horror MMO!! The whole thing would take place in an asylum that got boarded up. They were too cheap to move the inmates out, so they just chained the doors, boarded the windows and turned of the water and power. The players could either be the inbred descendants of the inmates or unfortunate teenagers that found themselves trapped inside. It's great fun for those "hardcore"/PvP/permadeath assholes and totally reflects their mindset. The only problem would be coding and modelling all the different ways players could kill eachother.
COH battle is slow, and feels too turn based to me. Granted I didn't have a bunch of max level characters on multiple servers, but the combat was too slow and the quests too repetitive. The travel between quests was tedious and boring.
The character creation was a blast! I could play on that for hours and not get bored. More options than anything I've seen to date. Was amazing!
A Shadowrun or other cyberpunkish MMORPG. High tech, low life.
Currently playing:
* City of Heroes: Deggial, Assault Rifle/Devices Blaster. Server: Defiant.
* City of Villains: Snakeroot, Plant/Thorns Dominator. Server: Defiant.
One kinda like monopoly that could be cool.
