What Would YOU Want In a Multiplayer Game?

I’m attempting to build a video game that includes online support at some ends. I figured I’d ask this question: What would YOU want in a multiplayer video game?

depends what genre, but i suppose some sort of ranking system and a way to comunicate with other players

Being able to choose or make your own weapons and change and cutomize your charecter So that gamplay is not the same all the time. Evryone one looks a little diffrent anyway from eachother right :smile:

Okay, let me rephrase my question: In ANY genre, what would YOU want in a multiplayer video game?

i’d like to have a mmorpg with charakters that are difficult and weird, with bad moods and bad habits like in real life

This thread is a tad old have made any progress with your game yet?

Wish list without regard for any developer, authoring tool maker, or socket slap happy super net guru:

  1. Persistent data regarding all attributes and statistics of my play with analysis so NPC’s can say stuff like “Heard you got owned by the big lizard a few days ago”.

  2. Voice interaction with NPC’s and users alike, no more typing. “Facade” style without the typing and way better recognition.

  3. Webcam photo that projects a perfect UV map without deformation on my in-game character.

  4. Collision detection that reflects realistic injury; I get shot in the leg the camera drops to the side my vision blurs, tunnels, etc. and I bleed out without appropriate attention.

  5. Quests or missions that involve emotion and are unique following a standard 3-act style of story - Catalyst, Big Event, Pinch, Crisis, Showdown, Realization, Warm Fuzzy Feeling or alternatively death.

  6. A hat… a really cool one.

I’m just spit balling man most of this stuff I’m sure is either impractical or unnecessary, hope your game is going well though and best wishes!
