Myself I've been on the road to trying to plat the game currently and I like it more than I thought but I think a sequel could be much better so here's just a few of what I'd like if they were to do a sequel.

1. Move the story forward - I would have liked if the original game was set between MGS2 and MGS4 but it's probably too late now and a sequel should probably just move forward instead of backwards.

2. More emphasis on stealth - MGR did have stealth elements in the game but very few in number and in all you could just fight it out. They should mix the gameplay up by having stealth sections and combat, Batman Arkham balances this well.

3. Improved character designs - The designs for characters in MGR for the most part looked too animeish. The Raiden suit in MGS4 was much better than in MGR.

4. More characters from previous games - I don't expect for them to have anyone like Snake but they could have Otacon, Meryl, Johnny, Rose, Raidens son and Sunny again who could replace the Maverick (?) squad from the original.

5. A Darker villain - Senator Armstrong wasn't bad but he was hardly in the game and it just didn't seem right that a senator armed with nanomachines could take Raiden who could throw over a Metal Gear.

6. Longer - MGR was way too short.

7. Better story - MGR's wasn't bad but doesn't compare to the MGS games, they could have an improved story but without filling it full of cutscenes.

That's all I can think of for now.
