Things that would make FPS's better

Well, I would like to see more integration between RPGs and the FPS genre. Some steps have been taken down this road, and I like it.
Less linear, more chances for choices. (I'm not just talking about level design, but gameplay in general)
More story than "Here are some bad guys. Shoot them." I think Bioshock is a good example of what you can do with story.
More enemy types, and variations of enemies. I grow tired of shooting the exact same enemy-clone for most of the game.
Most of these things have been done before, but I think that more FPS games should implement them.

A FPS MMORPG similiar to wow would be awesome where you do magic stuff and all that stuff, cast magic shield on yourself and youre surrounded by a "forcefield" type thing, you cover yourself in a shield and your screen is covered by the shield, you use magic rods and you actually AIM the magic stuff..
I second this,olikunmissile said:
and also I am yet to see a biotechnology FPS where you can literally upgrade your body with chips and shit and create lasers that come out your chest kinda like Guyver probarly has been, though with the amount of fps's lying about these days.
*Edit*
I would also like to see more women characters in fps and multiplayer online Fps's.
I say this all the time.
Damage that makes sense. I'm tired of being killed by shots to the foot. Yea sure the gun does OMG UBER1337SZOR damage, but I'm not going to instantly die from a bullet hitting my foot, I'd accept being crippled, bleeding to death and crying out in agony, but instant death isn't right.
Another thing, sensible accuracy. If the gun is pointing towards the centre of the screen (which in 99% of FPS's it is), then that is where bullets will go. Sniper rifles are the worst for this, countless times I'll be right behind someone (within a few inches) and the bullet will miss, because some intervention of God meant that the bullet came out at a near 90degree angle and missed the guy.
So in summary.
Damage and effects on the body relative to where you are hit.
Guns that are actually as accurate as they are in real life.

Yeah I would like to see a realistic criple system in fps's(not like getting crippled in Fallout 3) but if you got shot in the foot you would basicly fall to the floor in pain and loss of blood until somone came along and patched you up or you perfomed a self surgery style thing lo. I really dont think One hit kill weapons are right unless they are extremely hard to master then id put up with it.Davey Woo said:
I would like it to be permanent, it would be amazing if there was gradual rebuild and towns that just build randomly.Pandalisk said:
For single player id like more RPG elements, like Fallout3/Deus Ex, or a good story. Can't think of a FPS with an amazing single player story.
Multiplayer I really don't know, possibly a less noob friendly game I can properly feel I'm getting better at after getting used to it.
Or a MMOFPS to combine the RPG/Multiplayer, Id love it if it was done well and not based on XP levels but just your own FPS skill.

OoO I like the sound of this ive seen Free downloadable leveling FPS And TPS games but never one where its based upon pure skill would be even better if it was sandbox with Roleplay servers Like WoW kinda reminds me of Garry's Mod DarkRp On steam.D4zZ said:
