Would you play a game like this? (Warning: Long-Post)

Combat, most of that sounds awesome. If you have any skills that could contribute to making such a game, PM me.

Don't be dissuaded by community reaction. After reading suggestion replies and discussions of gameplay, and just now this topic, the fact is that the community has many who are hostile to any innovation or idea that is not CoH with more polish, and a shocking loyalty to the various design crutches that make up traditional MMO conventions.

If you polled the community for which they'd want first, revamped gameplay that is dramatically more tactical and interesting while eliminating tedium, or the ability to color powers, the latter would win by a landslide.

A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!
