Idea for a multiplayer game mode

Basically it would be a game mode where you control only one character in a community. Each individual in that community would be controlled by one of your friends. You would build up your base somewhat like a normal game, but for balancing purposes your character will have to stay to there rolled strengths, and have specific rolls in the group. Also all the other communitys in the area will be real players as well. The PvP would be alot like those ark like games where you sometimes have to fight off other teams of players for your resources, or could band together to take down large scale plauge hearts/ enemy's mmo style. Also alot more in depth base building along with that. I know that's alot to ask, but I think it would be cool to see a multiplayer game mode along the lines of this in the future.
