Firefly was a great show, but I can't see it as a MMOG, but I will definately be around to try it out. Now, the show Space: Above and Beyond would make a great one.

Agreed, worst crap I ever saw. It won't make a good MMO either since there was no actual world in it.
And it quit funny to read people's reactions wich actualy have nothing to tribute to the discussion and i also think that you can see what type of gamers some people are in the way they react. Opinions are always personal and should be respected and no disrespect meant but my little cousin of 4 years old can say stuff is crap and sucks and when he say's that i really do not mind but i do believe the majority of gamers or atleast the once that are able to write are able to come up more then those simple words and backup what they think is crap or is good and thats something worth respecting. |

If done right I can totally see the Fireflly Universe lending itself very well to an MMO. I think this company has a much bigger job ahead of them then they realize though and I'm more worried that they are just going to throw somethign together and slap the FF name onto it more then anything. Which I wouldn't be surprised with at all. It's not as if Fox actually cares about the license and from what anyone can tell, Mr. Whedon didn't have a choice in the matter so who knows really. All we can do is hope they make a decent attempt at it, but I certainly for the best. |

Guys, just to clear up a fairly key point here: Multiverse is *NOT* developing the game.
From the Wired article: "Bringing those environments and character types to life as an online game will be a challenge: Multiverse is not a game developer, but rather a platform provider whose product is still in beta. Instead of making the game itself, the company will hire a development team that will craft the virtual galaxy using Multiverse tools." So it's anybody's guess on who'll be developing this one :) Since this is using the Multiverse platform the odds are we won't be seeing any big name studio doing it so there's no telling what's going to happen. |

I wonder if they've someone in mind already, or if it's going to go to tender in some form. It'd be nice if some of the people who've been supporting the setting since the TV show was cancelled could have some input - not to mention Whedon and the other folks involved from the beginning. |

I can understand someone not liking Firefly, but 'suck' it did not. Yeah, it really would have been an acquired taste. Having said that, I loved the Movie as well as the show (own them both). I do not think it would be a great MMORPG. The show was the characters and the humor. Take that away and it all is pretty generic. Other than it being a sci fi mmorpg, what would be the draw? It has a small niche audience who really love the show. After that, I don't see people who are unaware of the show to be flocking to a game based on it. |
