You were sleeping when WHITE WOLF and CCP merged right ?!?!?!?!?

 

Products of White Wolf (mainly the "World of Darkness")

Changling: The Dreaming
Dark-Ages 
Demon: The Fallen
Hunter: The Reckoning
Mage: The Ascension und Mage: The Awakening
Mind's Eye Theatre
Mummy: The Resurrection
Vampire: The Masquerade und Vampire: The Requiem
Werewolf: The Apocalypse und Werewolf: The Forsaken
Wraith: Oblivion

 

CCP is known for their mmorpg EVE Online.

Now try to imagine why a pen and paper Roleplay Company might wanna merge with a MMORPG Developer ?

There is a horror MMO available Requiem: BloodyMare. Admittadly it does look more like blood covered elves with really big explosions smashing gooey looking stuff with claws, but they call it horror.

Vampires vs Werewolves RvR would be pretty cool in a world where all the mobs were humans who wanted to kill you.

In an RvR Vampire vs Werewolves game, which side would you play?

Werewolves
Vampires

I would love to see a vampire vs werewolves game.  It is time to get away from the fantasy MMOs, alas, it won't happen anytime soon unless a smaller indie company develops it.

I actually had an idea for a Underworld type mmo..  In fact i actually started a map of the whold i had classes. planned out and if i do say so myself they were some sick classes not your typical crap.   Then i just kinda put it on the back-burner for a while.   After  i get everything pretty much writen up i want to try and sell it to a company

The company that merged with CCP called Whitewolf I believe is already working on a vampire type theme mmo.

It (from what I understand) is the same base engine as what EVE's "ambulation" (walking avatars) is built from.

EVE's engine is crap for anything but a space sim.

God forbid they might develop another engine!!!! o.O

 

Like the engine they will use in the upcoming Ambulation Patch for EVE. You know, walkable space station with customizeable avatars and such. Word has it that this will be both a patch for EVE and a test for the engine which will eventually serve as the basis for the WoD MMO.

EVE's space engine HAS NOTHING to do with it's avatar engine as it has been designed from the ground up.

Funny thing about whitewolf is this requim coming otu is almost a direct rip off white wolfs pen and paper "Vampires-The requiem"

www.white-wolf.com/vampire/index.php

Don't be so quick to post about EVE's engine as it's Ambulation looks very nice.

Again I say it's space engine is TOTALLY different then it's walking avatars.

It is very realistic looking, meaning if Whitewolf goes through with it's Vampire MMO it will be NOTHING like the imposter requim mmo that is releasing now.

That is if they even use it.  A lot of developers are turning to purchasing the rights to an already developed engine.  Its a lot cheaper to purchase the right and takes a lot less time to adapt it to your needs.  Icarus Studio's engine that was made for Fallen Earth would fit in quite well with a Vampire vs Werewolves scenario.

I repeat. EVE's space engine has NOTHING to do with Ambulations engine, and whitewolf merged with ccp for a big reason of bringing their mmo out.
 

here's a early shot of EVE's avatar engine www.youtube.com/watch

There hasn't been any news on the the White Wolf MMO in a long time. Not sure if it is still being worked on or they set it aside. Anyone know where they are at this time?

Well seen that Buffy the Vampire Slayers will be an MMO Game.
But I would never come near that...

I would like to see a real vampire MMO. And Werewolves, and those are in war.
And the battlefield would be a huge city, with lots and lots of Human NPC's that you can feed on.. And rob for money. ^^

Castlevania? Hmmm... I don't know... Still Castlevania is Castlevania, and all the fans would be dying to try it.

Before WOW, there were MMORPG''s. After WOW there were online solo single RPG''s.

I would like to see a serious vampire MMORPG, but nothing like a "Buffy" or "Lost Boys".  I just don't buy in to the concept that 400 year old vampires dress, act, and talk like teenagers.   Sorry.

Something based on the Underworld series would be amazing.

.. but with our luck in the MMO world, it'd probably get picked up by a worthless group of devs and turn into a F2P game.

Yeah, I think most of us mystery fanatics here would love a vampire, werewolf, or vampires vs. werewolves mmorpg game. And I got one word to describe it "GORE". And the developers should put many a gore-some things around this kind of games. After all, gore is what it should be like. LOL
