World of Darkness MMO: CCP merges with White Wolf
The possibilities this opens up for the new company are two-fold: 1) taking successful White Wolf properties and turning them into massively-multiplayer games; and 2) leveraging EVE Online IP outside the MMO genre. A World of Darnkess MMO is apparently already being planned. Tinney on ther other hand said he is looking forward to using EVE IP in pen-and-paper role-playing games, strategy games, card games, miniatures, collectibles, novels, and comic books. EVE Online has already been branched into a collectible card game and a novel. Pétursson says the merge will allow the original team to concentrate on the MMO. The merger has apparently been prepared for a year now. There have also been other interesting and more economics related talks here today. I'll be blogging about those later. WoD MMOI hope that the MMO gies you choice of 'race' and clan / tribe / discipline. I guess they'll base it in the new stuff, so Requiem, Forsaken and Awakened. I hope they bring the Hunters back tho =D By Angelus (not verified) at Fri, 2007/04/06 - 18:01

You get my vote.....God, please no changlings!! Also, I hope it's not all combat oriented, lets hope there's a bit of diplomacy or whatnot eh? By Angleus (not verified) at Wed, 2007/04/25 - 16:00
Planet VampireA good place to discuss the World of Darkness MMO is the Planet Vampire WoD MMO forum. By Vili Lehdonvirta at Thu, 2007/04/26 - 05:13
Says the person who justSays the person who just doesn't get it. Then again alot of people didn't. All they would see are the idiots who wanted to play jerk pooka's. The game is about paradise, you are living in it now. The dreaming has every wonderous thing you can imagine in it...and every nightmare. But the really sad part is you know what paradise is but in a few years time you know the real world will catch up with you and your memories will fade. All this wonder that you know of now will be forgoten, and you know this. Kindof makes it hard to enjoy the here and now. By Anonymous (not verified) at Fri, 2007/04/27 - 21:05

pre-poster could not be more wrong!EVE is on it's way to change it's graphic engine to directX 10 based (the one that will be used in WOD MMO), they will add massive content in final parts of Revelations patch like cross racial warfare; so on, so on... And most important soon we will be able to get out of our eggs and walk around space stations and planet surfaces. No friend, I don't see EVE dieing any time soon...

CCP said that the WOD MMORPGCCP said that the WOD MMORPG is being developed by a different team located in Atlanta, precisely in order to make sure that EVE development will not be affected negatively. As the previous poster implies, there could be positive synergies though -- the same technology that is used in the WOD game being used in EVE to enable station walking, for example.

Remember all, it will be NWodRemember all, it will be NWod, so no malkavian, technocracy or bone gnawer. It'll be a grayish ground, with, I hope, morality issue. Violent, but with no mob farming (I hope too). Changelings will be back, but not as you know them (forget the pooka too). It will be real Darkness. With light only to underline it!

I haven't got the time toI haven't got the time to read all the above posts so if I'm repeating what other people have said I apologise. I hope they include EVERYTHING. Vampires, Werewolves, Wraiths, Prometheans, Changlings, Hunters, Mages, Mummies and Demons. If there's anything I've missed, then they should be included too. Also, the clans/tribes/whatever should be included too. For example, if a player wanted to be a werewolf, they would pick their tribe, the phase of the moon they were born under, and what type of Garou they are to begin with, Human, Lupis or Metis. Also, I find that WoW and CoH/CoV are just too combat oriented, there should be the whole social skills involved too, and the sneaky covert stuff. Picking locks etc. Basically what I'm saying is, I want EVERYTHING. I realise that it's quite a lot to ask, but I strongly feel that everything that exists in the World of Darkness should exist in the World of Darkness online.

No Malks?If there are no malkavians, I'm not entirely sure how I will fit in. With or without my clans guidance, I will be having full length conversations with every stop sign i encounter. The blood line will stand this test of time! By Cervantes Corithian (not verified) at Sun, 2007/08/05 - 16:59
