I find your lack of ingame footage disturbing.


Nice trailer thou.

There is actually ingame footage but they don't let non-press people watch. It doesn't really make a lot of sense. I guess they want to keep hype alive but still I think it is a bad decision.

The saying 'You only get to make a first impression once' I think is what they are applying here.

And, given the monumental challenge of going up against WoW (different genre but whatever; there is definitely a bunch of the same target audience there to fight over), I can hardly blame them for wanting, for lack of a better phrase, to 'min-max' their revealing of their game and entrance to the mmo market.

If Bioware gets this right, they will have more or less earned a ticket from EA to develop much more freely, and be funded for it. The incentives for them to get this perfect are really huge.

This is probably the game that will lead on from WoW -- that, or WoW2. I imagine it's going to be one hell of a face-off too.

I wonder which one will release first...
Now I run a tech website.

there is only one winner, see all other mmo's, fails 1 by 1.

WoW ^^ if there is anything that comes over wow, it has to be wow2 =)

I am fairly certain bioware will release first, I think q2-q3 2010 wouldn't be too far-fetched. Some of the pre-order stores date it this year... which is obviously too early.

But yeah, this game is something that actually might stand a chance against wow, warhammer/aoc or any other wow "killer" so far has been pretty much a clone with some new things thrown in. Moving from fantasy to sci-fi and using a very well known lore to build the game around is a clever move.

I hope they do it right...

Trolls are awesome!

Well Star Wars: Galaxies was done fairly well, and got quite a large subscriber count, but that was pre-WoW! People still don't know how WoW got quite so many players...

But we'll see. If they can time it right, it could work. But Blizzard won't let them time it right, you can be sure of that... :)

I think this game can actually beat WoW.

But that's just my view, I mean I never really thought AOC would beat WoW, or Warhammer online, But I don't know, times'a changin and I think maybe It's about time to pass the torch.

If we looked at the MMO Community like a big monopoly board, You'd see WoW most likley having hotels on every property after Bond street (That's the orange one, right?)


Daekesh

Bond street is the high price one in the green set.  The high price orange one is Vine street.  I forget the name of the other two in that set.
