Hey,
Im looking to get some feedback on my ideas for my ideal MMO, which Ive made a forum for with all my ideas so far in them.

I waited patiently for SWG for 2-3 years to come out, then hated it, and transferred over to Planetside (Beta right up to the near present) as despite all its failings I loved the fact that it was an FPS, yet still had the scale and community of an MMO. While there I set up and ran a successful outfit (guild) thats since branched out into Guild Wars, WoW, BF2142, Vanguard and Voyage Century.
The MMO I would love is essentially an FPS, but with RPG systems in place to make people specialise in roles to be successful in that area. There would also be RTS style controls for commanders to coordinate their troops.
For the feel of the game, Id like to have a sci fi war, with an old west feel (anyone seen Firefly?) where teamwork is encouraged, but one man can make a difference, but only if hes damned good!
The story Ive got for it currently is that a generation ship is sent to another solar system, and infighting breaks out between the passengers enroute. The game would kick off as hostilities erupt, and would continue through to planetfall and colonisation of the target planet.
The key to this game is that anyobody can compete with anybody else, no unrealistic levelling up that means that veterans cant even be scratched by new players.
Anyway, im posting here as Id like to get some feedback and opinions on my forums, and if I could get an artist to come up with some concepts, all the better!
