I don't know why people just spend more time shamelessly ripping off old games that did well and updating them with modern presentation. Not like GW or CoX dropped because they couldn't get players or anything. If I made games I'd have no original ideas, I'd just pick up and remarket all the games that did well on market but suffered for their publishers.

does destiny count?

>>358191483
They basically made the game a cashshop race.
You need a lot of cashshop items to upgrade your stuff and be able to beat anyone in PVP
Also the NA servers are full of BRs who refuse to learn English.

Because it's HARD AS FUCK to program for.

USed to be, you could make a good MMO with only a few tens of thousands of concurrent players.

Now every MMO has to account for the possibility of millions of players, and ain't nobody got the server space for that

Old MMOs had way more nuance, but the balancing was pretty awful across the board.

Because the one thing that MMOs were known for got subsumed into literally every other genre. It's no longer a novelty to be online with other players at all times, it's damn near a requirement, regardless of genre.

Main complaint after playing RO private servers of the past couple years is that you're still pretty much required to make a Hunter or Wiz first for farming purposes.

>>358193656
To be honest they should have focused more on making classes be their own thing instead of DD/heal/tank. I know people disagree with this but I wouldn't care doing less DPS if it meant my class was really needed one way or the other. I thing in the end when everything is super duper equal it leads to homogenization and stagnation so I would move toward giving unique aspects to each spec rather than making everybody do everything (which is what balancing ultimately leads to).

I honestly believe being forced to sit around and chat while you wait for something for a bit should be forced in one area of an MMO.

Unless you can no life a game its not ideal though, because it requires time to be dedicated. But some of my best memories on Maplestory were on that ship.

Keeping an eye on a couple of indie ones, blossom and decay in particular. SOme of the beta eastern ones look alright, but doubt we'll see them/they'll be good.

The PvE focus killed that game. The alliance vs alliance stuff fighting for territory was so good. I really wish they kept it like it was on release with the point system too. the gunner class got pretty broken when they could use everything full power.

It's dead.
I played during V6/V7 until V9, the game is dead, it's simply not the same game at all.

>>358195618

Not the same game doesn't mean it's "dead" in the classical sense of the word.

Lunia is dead, DFO is dead, Trickster is dead. Because you can no longer play these games at an official capacity since the parent companies shut them down.

MMOs are more or less dead to me. The issue is that by having a persistent world with lots of players, the content will get repetitive no matter what you do.

>>358191587

shit endgame content.
all these mmos put gorillions of dollars into quests, graphics, and voice acting, when end game content just isnt there

once, and if ever, devs realize that raids with fun mechanics are necessary then mmos can be fun again

also endgame pvp.

>mfw boonprot healing as a Mo/N with Offering of Blood for the easiest, most efficient e-management in the game
Prophecies was fucking amazing.

>>358195610

Here I was thinking the PvP focus was the problem. PvE was some of the most enjoyable parts of the game even though PvP was great, but we didn't get any new content. People who did raids/fought in dungeons were doing the same content over and over and there were basically no quests. By the time they expanded the main quest line it was too little too late and didn't address the main problem of there being too few raids. PvP was fine as it was but being an MMORPG most people only play PvP as a fun thing to pass the time, their real goal is to grind PvE content.

Thing is the main dev has not been seen for over 3-4 months. And then I found out that this same mod has demoted the lead dev in the discord server. So yeah by the looks of it planetside may never see the light of day again.

But at least there is the offline training pack that lets you play a beta offline training mode.
And the test server we had up.

I went in completely innocent, with almost no idea of what roleplaying was either, and ended up roped into the personal story of some runaway slave chick with a dagger that stole souls and her family- we'd just log in every day and play out more of the story. She didn't even care that my name was just my real name portmanteau'd with a Pokémon.

We'd hop from dream to dream and keep it going in every setting, followed by her captors each time until after many months we finally had the showdown with a slave owner named Evals Renwo.

Hours of misspelled combat and mouseclicking at inhuman speeds to run impossibly fast later, we won with little fanfare, and suddenly Nomed Evals Renwo logged in to keep fighting us.

It was a simpler time.

People have been belittling religion as a whole for the past several centuries. It wasn't even that long ago that the church was considered the first estate, above aristocracy and law. And look at it now.

You are literally retarded.

>>358196665

>ncsoft shut COH down because it made no fucking money

A blatant lie, actually. It became owned by the same company as GW2 and they didn't want GW2 to lose money to CoX, so they cut it. Internally, there also was drama with one of the chiefs that didn't really see much the light of day. Maybe only two Anons know the full scoop on here.

In fact, the free to play brought in an ample amount and everyone all around enjoyed the new model. They had a whole patch and new cosmetics planned out and everything.

Do your homework instead of trying to fit in with the "REE POPULAR GAME SUCKS" pseudo-hivemind.

okay, let me set this up for you cuz you a dumbass

even if shit is making a modest profit relative to its cost, it's not worth keeping shit up if it's not going anywhere. they had other games and shit they wanted to focus on, and those servers could be used for something that could make much more money - especially if its projected that another product will make much more moeny, like gw2

projections for coh into the future were shit. there was no growth potential - just maintaining
gw2 used projections from the previous gw, which were a mistake in the end, but that's what happened
to summarize:

CoH - makes money but no future
GW2 - had a future but made no money

any investory would take the latter any day

welcome to game business

I think if we got an MMO that focused on the journey and not just end game+ having things to do besides raid. Bars with virtual darts(not kidding) and other shit to dick off with

>>358197353

> you can't just make fun of a group of people who had literally over 10,000,000 of their own killed in WW2 and get away with it

Why can't I make fun of the Russians?

>>358197508
ok? We can still be sad/angry it was shut down

>>358197104
My experience with it was actually pretty short. I remember just chatting with some randoms near the beginner gate for a bit, explored some, and then ending after a day or 2.

'Dreams' didn't make much sense to me, and I guess the rules of the room were a bit intimidating back in the day since my only previous roleplaying experience was in a DBZ MSN Groups chatroom that was pretty free form.

Then I found a webcomic of RO from somewhere, and that basically became my life for the next 4 years.

Is it just me or is RPing dead? Or possibly only kept alive by amateur authors that need help making their next book? I don't count ERP....

>>358197572
So......Second Life?

Also, I would suggest checking out the discord server for what uses it has.

It's you; the problem is just that you got older, and there's no magic or mystery to it anymore.

I actually stuck with Furcadia a few years even after finding out what furries were, and was spared from the degeneracy just by hanging out with weebs there instead.
I remember there was a time where there was a hugely-advertised ripoff of the Dark Tournament from Yuu Yuu Hakusho that all the servers knew about and made teams with typical edgy teenage names to fight in, among other tales.

Most of them were dreams designed to copy the ideas of videogames though, like one that was GTA with driveable cars. The patch system was ahead of its time, really, so it's a shame you didn't get to fully experience it, but it doesn't surprise me that it'd be dead now.

>>358197508

>it's not worth keeping shit up if it's not going anywhere

Except, like I just said, they had patches and additional content already planned and ready to roll out. City of Heroes was solely shut down to remove competition from GW2 when NCSoft changed hands. There were no new servers, no new nothing - it was purely an exchange of ownership.

There was no financial projection or study. It was a, "We don't like X, shut it down."

It was so sudden, in fact, that employees didn't even have two weeks notice; it was an immediate termination.

There was, in fact, a planned future.

Welcome to actually knowing what the fuck you're talking about, you twat.

Why is it so hard for them to get the updates over here in a decent amount of time. Even with the shitty events I would have maybe stuck with the game if we weren't forever stuck 6-7 months behind the Korean version.

Probably the same guy you're thinking of that wanders about with some xeno shtick.
He always seemed so distant and paranoid; then again I would be too if I was a degenerate fatfur, hated myself for it and didn't want to spew that in people's face.
That isn't his Deviantart, he doesn't even use his.

Why did Guild Wars have such a high population of middle aged people playing it?

My uncle was the one who introduced me to it back in 05, and when I played it there were tons of adults playing it. I didn't mind, but I've never seen that many 40+ adults gravitate to any game since

>>358200872
God damn. I miss walking to Draynor.

>>358200874
Because an underage shitter wouldn't succeed at that game. You seriously think a 12 year old came up with 55ing?

>>358200981
I was 12 when I played it and I was definitely a shitter but I still beat the campaign

I never got good enough for elite areas though. I was decent at RA and played a ton of alliance battles and fort aspenwood

>>358200874
Middle age people play guild wars and conquer online. I don't know why.

Okay, hear me out.
What if we dug into the older versions, recycled trashed content (like scorpid, scorpidv2, rocky, host, grounder, cocoons) And implemented something like what the older design documents implied; being able to make your own monsters based off of what abilities you took; and similar with the hunters.

This would have to start with simple weapon/gear swapping/dropping/etc, but I think it could work.

Not saying that it will be possible; but assuming the 'team metamorphosis' comes to fruitition, it will be a side-project whilst we work on tweaking the main evolve game.

Everything goes to plan; we just plug Evolve into MetaMorphOsis and there you go.

Making evolve into an mmofps would also solve the "Running around for 20 mins looking for the monster".

Stage 2 did not fix this; it potentially made it worse by making the maps even bigger and less visually interesting.


Conceptually; it would be split into 2 teams, not 3, and it would consist of Hunters (fixed loadouts, general abilities, have some drawbacks but they're the ones doing most of the fighting + Colonists (trading, inventory, fully customizable) vs Monster Horde (which all are technically on the same team but are encouraged to kill each-other for dominance and strategic reasons.)

This is mostly spit-balling for the future. Cannot guarantee.

>>358201329
well, that does sound fun, but whether it's actually fun in practice is something to be seen.

So, here the crazy thing.
A French guy made a MMO out of RPG-Maker.
And it was fairly popular, in its high days you could get around 1k to 2k players online.

Nowadays though, it seems they have hardly 5 players online at the same time and they are thinking on closing down for good.

Does anyone know the name of this probably 10 year old f2p MMO thing?
It's a top-down game where you do instanced missions with a group, they're generally "Get to the end" but there were also some "protect this area" ones also iirc.
You played as these little robots, throughout missions you might get drops of equipment that change the way you looked. I remember thinking the artstyle was fucking sick.
Never got too far though. The areas I remember were very generic as far as MMOs go; Jungle, robot warehouse, cyber docklands, airship.
If I had to say it looked like anything, think the robots from Virtual-On, but much more chibi. I seem to remember my robot having thrusters instead of legs.

That is true; What was fun to us may not necessarily be fun to anybody else.

I think our first proof-of-concept that this is possible or viable would be Re-implementing Host. She's a scary cunt; and the trs team didn't want to put her in because AI reasons; but the ai in-game has improved significantly; so i wouldn't worry as much.

She was basically a summoner of sorts. I think that if the AI really does become a problem; a solution can already be lined up; Use the ideas presented by Overlord, of codemasters/triumph fame.

>>358201824
Further dEvolve thoughts:
Expand Evacuation; this was part of the main draw to the game. Evac is now split into standard evac (not many differences from main game) and FULL SCALE EVACUATION/EVAC 2.0

Evac 2.0 would take place in the open world mode; taking place over 5 irl days in a week. Battles in the open world; and in the territorial radius, will contribute to that territory's control; and this will eventually lock to the team who wins it on that day. Each day comes with its own rewards, much like the daily login we have now. At the end of day 5, the winning side will receive a major peice of content (new character/adaptation/etc); and on every other day a minor peice of content. (ae; skins, keys, free unlocks, etc.)

On the weekends; we would remove restrictions on cosmetics; meaning you can indeed be Gangster-Goliath on the weekend; but not during the campaign.

Cosmetic items are something I'd really play around with; I would much rather they be things that affect gameplay, so maybe introduce them as cosmetics and see what should be put on them.

The community would also be a considerable factor for development, they'd be voting a good deal for what they get; but we'd still be picking things we want to toss in, we'd just also be going to the community and saying "Hey, we dug through all this stuff you made, we've narrowed it down, vote on who gets in this time"

I do mean this in a crowd-sourcing way. People make new hunters and monsters, we pick the best, put them in, and maybe even hire them/train them so they can get their feet wet in game development, like we would be.

Any good MMOs similar to haven and hearth out there?

>>358198937
Here's my opinion.

No, ideally it is similar (third person shooter with a balanced selection of melee combat that offers flashy combat) but when it really comes down to how the games are finally seen as the two games went in a totally different directions.

GunZ actually encourages flashy game play in terms of style points being added to the score but the fucking butterfly style really killed off any sort of variety in the game. Is it THE only style in the game? No. But in terms of being broken it was the all purpose tool to fight. So in the later ranks you just see literally nothing but high level people doing the same trick over again and again.

S4 on the other hand didn't encouraged flashy game play like GunZ's style system but the mobility options you have in that game was just plenty enough to make the gameplay entertaining. Another point I really loved about S4 league, before the cashshop, was since no weapon nor any loadout combination was broken you can see people coming up with odd and varied loadouts and make it work perfectly.

Fallen Earth was very underrated. Post apocalyptic shooter style MMO with in depth crafting and resource gathering.

Unfortunately it suffered from the same horribly laggy servers that SWG had.
