The other day I was talking to a friend about on-line games and he mentioned a game called freelancer (space game/strategy/action). When playing this game on-line, you can either play the traditional way, join a game that lasts about 20mins and then leave, or you can play on a 24/7 game. For OFP, this would be like an on going war, maybe lasting several real time days. It would be nice to see them properly organised too, arranged times, a theme or recreation. This would fit in nicely with the multiple islands idea too, although lag may be a problem.
What do you think of this idea? I'm not sure if it has been done already, if it has then please spare me from humiliating myself further!
