If you were to be able to combine the best elements from all mmos around which would you want to see in your dream mmorpg?
For me i think id mix these:
1.Everquest huge variety races and classes
2.POE Talent tree (or even bigger)
3.POE/Diablo Loot variety
4.Ultima Online freedom on what to do while in game
5.Wow bg's+arenas (for organised and ladder ranked pvp)
6.DDO dungeons
7.Mount and Blade warband combat system (or Skyrim)
8.DAOC RvRvR world pvp system
What about you?

Why ask a question about the best elements from MMOs, and then go on to include elements from games that are not MMOs?
Class/race combinations from EQ/EQ2, UO gameplay combined with crafting from SWG, mixed with the PVP from DAoC, the dungeon's from DDO and raids from WoW, would be a decent combo for me.
A creative person is motivated by the desire to achieve, not the desire to beat others.
and for a sec there i thought you are for real
got me there, funny one
"I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me!"
Complexity and deph from EVE Online
Freedom, galaxy size and planet landing from Elite
Sets in Star Trek universe
This would be my dream MMO.
If it's not broken, you are not innovating.
I think this is one of those things that would sound amazing on paper, but would actually result in one of the worst MMOs ever made.
The best games include only the mechanics that support the inate game design and hopefully strengthen that vision. Almost every time a game starts to do too much outside of that scope, it starts to suffer as a result.
Well i think its just matter of organizing things. I dont see how it could affect negatively if gor example wow had a deeper character progression system than the usual gain few attributes passively.I really dont. It could only affect possively a game if u enrich it. I think its about time an mmorpg to appear that combine lots of the good elements other mmos have. The problem is always on the way u implement something in a game.
Haha why? Tbh after playing most mmos wow's arenas ladder system is i think the only succesfull working formula for those that prefer organised pvp (non world pvp), so far at least.
DAoCs RvR including RRs and Darkness Falls (The dungeon not the horrible MMO)
DDOs Dungeons and incentives to group
CoH character progression
Champions online character customisation
Nothing else I care enough about
