Sure, FPS levels are somewhat smaller problems than MMO worlds,
though they seem to be of the same general complexity as a dungeon
or town.  A lot of the player-generated content is better than the
commercial stuff that comes with the game.

I imagine that if you gave players tools like UnrealEd to edit their
houses or guildhalls, you'd see some darned impressive player
generated content.  As it is, the choices seem to be prefabs (SWG,
UO) or basic geometry (Second Life).
