If MxO had offered more in the way of sandbox material, I firmly believe that it would still be running with a decent number of subscribers today.

I always wanted to write missions. I always wanted to run events. I can sit here right now, open Notepad, and over the course of the next few hours, come up with hundreds of new item ideas, clothing ideas, weapon ideas, skills, combat trees, NPC ideas, and neighborhoods. If we'd ever had a way to make our ideas actually come to life in the game, it would've been epic. Sadly, we had to wait until someone started development of a emulator, before we could even realistically think about the prospect of adding more content. And even then, adding new content will come second to rebuilding the old previously-existing content.

Same here, I have ALWAYS wanted player created missions. I think that'd just be totally awesome. Players could pick up a blank mission disc, they'd write their mission, and then they can distribute it among their friends and factions. It'd really help out the Player driven RP and Events that MxO had, and hopefully MxOE will have.

I'm in the same boat you are Phrack, ever since MxO has shut down, I have a HUGE text file that has all of my MxO ideas. Anywhere from storyline, to weapons, etc. Anything and everything I thought would improve the game. The only reason I haven't brought it up until now is that now isn't the time. We need to get the EMU back up as much as possible.

We're the ones who are going to keep buggering on, and reminding the world of something it would probably prefer to forget. What was it Morpheus said? "We are still here"?

I believe MxOE will have a future, this isn't over. This is the one time where The Oracle is wrong. Not every beginning has an ending. MxO may be in hibernation at this moment, but it will come back, and it'll come back with a roar.
