Happy New Year! |
Just wondering what you all think, will the War 40k mmo hurt WAR at all? not much info on it yet, but from what i have read seems alot more people like that timeline then the current one. |

true genius is not the endless acumulation of knowledge but the ability to confuse others with it |
they will be vastly different games. 40k will most likely be like tabula rasa. and yes the timeline is more popular |

by the time 40k mmo releases, WAR will be dead. |

figure between 3-5 years before 40k comes out gunz blazing. In that time WAR will have had it's chance to rise or fall all by itself. Judging by mmo history it will fall but i'm hoping they pull it together. |

I have to admit i'm half looking forward to the 40k mmo and half dreading it. I'm a big fan of the IP and I'd rather they leave it alone rather than screw it up!
Of course if I had to choose a company to have a go at it, I would choose the same company that GWS did. So i'm somewhat optamistic.

Think THQ have the license for it (along with DOW series), they acquired it around a year ago i think, correct me if i'm wrong though. |

The 40k MMO was annouced eailer this year - it's THQ's puppy, but Relic (the DoW RTS guys) are NOT involed with the project.. Their aiming for a 2010 'beta', i dunno if that means closed or open yet.. To disspell a few myths early: 1) The 40k IP and the Fantasy IP have been co-exstisting for a while now, BOTH are as popular as each other but due to 40k being Sci-fi based and has had the most success with pc gaming, it is known more. The 40k MMO will NOT spell the death of WAR, Games Workshop are happy with both IPs being out their as MMOs, and many like myself will be happy to sub to both, thats assuming WAR is still active (if the quality and swiftness of the patch and content updates continue as it does then it's very likly it still will be running) 2) The 40k MMO will NOT be FPS/TR combat based, THQ have already stated that the game will be 'traditional MMO combat' ie stickly targeting, so those expecting a FPS, game sorry guys your just going to have to wait for Space Marine on the 360 |
