• • Blizzards new MMO

  • Hmmm... i think this might end the argument as to what genre it is:

    (From Job Listings on Blizzard's Website)

    Senior Graphics Programmer - Next-Gen MMO

    "Blizzard Entertainment is looking for an experienced senior graphics programmer to work on its next-generation massively multiplayer game. The ideal applicant will be proficient in shader programming and have 3D graphics API experience. Blizzard Entertainment offers a fun, creative, and technically challenging environment with excellent compensation and a full range of benefits.

    
    

    • Animation programming experience
    • Experience with programming with a 3D graphics tool chain
    • Familiarity with3ds Max or Maya
    • Prior 3D development work experience on MMORPG, RPG, and/or RTS games"

     

    Looks like it's an MMORTS to me, or else they wouldn't ask for someone with experience with RTSs.

• • Blizzards new MMO

  • Coffee, the hybrid idea is actually a pretty good idea. I know that that ground has already been tread on by any MMORTS (such as "Beyond Protocol"), but I would think that Blizzard would want to tread ground that needs to come into the spotlight because its so good, hence perhaps the title "Next-Generation MMO" that they refer to the new MMO by on their job listings website. So i don't think its going to be an RPG, but who knows, this is Blizzard we're talking about here, they managed to keep Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 secret for so long, so we have a while until we find out.

    To blackthornn, it doesn't matter if they lose subscribers from WoW to another of their MMOs, its still the same money coming in. Also... wow, you're 4-year old son plays WoW? Melees as a warlock? I mean, WOW! He must be some sort of child prodigy or something, most complex game i could play when i was that age was pacman.
