Online gaming - whats next?

[Bangla-Boy]

Hey,

I write a paper about online gaming for my studies on university.
In the near future we will be able to have a much higher data transfer rate
on the internet. Therefore we will be able to use new applications.

In my study I look for new possilbilties, solutions for online gaming.
Thats why I make this little survey. It would be really great if you could
tell me, what your opinion is on this topic.
Do you have wants and needs, that current online gaming solutions
can´t satisfy?

If yes, can you comment on it?

Are you satisfied in general with existent solutions?

If no, which services would you like to have from your provider?
(technical services and also referring to online games itself)

Thx a lot!

In my experience with online games, lets take a mmorpg (or facsimile) for example. Sometimes there are great games otu there... run by really bad bad people. I doubt technological advancement would really help there, but pfft thought I would mention.

The things I would like to see is possibly... Something like completely dynamic in game content... Things that change, evolve with the players in the game... Nothing thats just static, you know?

It would be really interesting to see a game thats based around what the members do... as opposed to what the creators want it to do.

Prolly a few games like that anyways, but whatever... I always that something like that would be extremely interesting to see... How would the game evolve, How would the players interact, grow, etc...

As for technical things... I dunno. I would be interested to see truly real time communication, or whatever, between game servers and home computers, so that it would eliminate the 'lag factor' but would also give games whole new depths. With latency, you can sometimes do things that aren't normal... Or get screwed.

Oh, and it would also be really interested to see how I game would be recieved if it included an invasive cheating deterrant program with it (and I mean truly invasive). Some people would welcome said program -- even if it deep scanned the memory -- others would be opposed to it... But people playing the game would at least have fun without the need for cheaters >_>

Pfft I dunno. I prolly just rambled on and completely missed the point of your post. Go me.

I need ot sleep now, good night.
