MTV Multiplayer Blog Archive ‘World Of Warcraft’ Game Director Working On New MMO, Hints At Console Game (http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2008/10/13/world-of-warcraft-game-director-on-new-mmo-and-console-games/)
Blizzard's next-gen MMO(s) might appear on consoles - Massively (http://www.massively.com/2007/11/21/blizzards-next-gen-mmos-might-appear-on-consoles/)

it only makes sense with how much theyre noobifying wow

one of the main guys at blizzard did say something--basically that they have to finish starcraft 2 and then diablo 3 before they start thinking about how they are going to unveil their next mmo.

1. It's an MMO
2. As a new IP, blizzard will have to find some way to surpass WoW. So it'll need to be bigger and more immersive.
3. WoW's development took over 5 years.


Do you honestly think they're anywhere remotely close to announcing details on what they're working on?

i guess it's where i fail to understand the game industry again. i mean, they know what the game is, if not all the mechanics and what-not, so why not just tell us 'hey, it's a cyberpunk mmo on the consoles...we'll have more details for you as they are available' (god i hope so, minus the console part). what the fuck is up with their constant need for secrecy in this industry, as if they were going to get more sales by waiting to divulge some info.

They don't want someone to rush on their idea or potentially release something at the same time they are.

and if they decide to change the whole thing, then they look retarded.

I'm not sure I would understand how a console MMO would work. If there is a subscription fee involved not sure if they'd get WoWs numbers. 360 peeps already pay money just to access multiplayer, and PS3 free but not as tooled as 360s.

Starcraft GHOST

probably cross platform.

and i prefer they do not announce anything.

its multiplatform, mianly aimed at console

limited skills sort of like guildwars, so you only have a very small number of abilities to use at any one time, will use instancing heavily.

think of guildwars for consoles twisted a bit.

weren't you pro at guildwars dac, with krazy?

its also obvious itll be heavily casual friendly with blizzard's recent stance favoring casuals in wow... theres no other choice anyway since the console demographic is even more retarded than that of wow.

yes, blizzard is all about the bottom line now which means appealing to the majority.

Console MMO sounds meh.
