@kevnar Considering even Facebook only has 500 million users, and the largest MMO, World of Warcraft, has only 11 million, the terrain would be incredibly vast but empty. But if it was a zombie game, it would be pretty cool wandering around as one of only a few thousand or million while zombies roamed the land.

Actually, that idea sounds appealing enough that I'm going to have to copyright it.

i think that the elder scrolls 2: daggerfall is the biggest game ever. its about 487,000 square kilometers. that is 30437 times bigger than oblivion and tvice the size of Great Britain and 788 times bigger tan wow. And if that wasn't enough it feature 15000 towns villages city's and dungeons and there are 750000+ npc's

[imlike1337]

@TheJunkieBox make a fricking co:op then ;)

[philipmarie1854]

@19121996martin Yes, but its was all randomly generated and I hear the game is really, really buggy.

@anagron63 Nope.jpg Max lvl should be 255

[anagron63]

@mkiller1001 Max lvl should be somewhere like 499 and skills should go accordingly, right?

Plus it should have some kind of "fast-travel" but it wouldn't be instant but you could get horses/flying mounts (nothing modern!).

And the world should have big different areas like WoW has (Tundras, deserts, jungles etc.).

There should also be 19 different races and over 600 enemy types!

Plus endless Loot system aka Diablo.

+ MAJOR CUSTOMIZATION FOR EVERYTHING (Clothes, bags, mounts, swords & rings)!

elder of scrolls 2 is put on the records for largest because they dont cheat as much as elder of scrolls 1. But officially. Elder of scrolls Arena is the largest game ever at 6,000,000 square kilometers. why it doesnt win is because only textures and towns stay the same. the average walk from one town to the next is 10 hours.

the biggest open world game is minecrft.

@TheJunkieBox there is a new indie game about zombie survival,build your house survival # Retro-isometric style with plenty of zombie insides thrown in for good measure.

# A massive city and the surrounding areas to traverse, explore and loot.

# Open-ended sandbox world – survival is your only goal, and we’re sorry to tell you… you WILL die eventually.
