Blizzard confirms next-gen MMOG called Titan

If its another grind fest, or if its another game where you just press a button and watch you character attack... count me out. Still, they say its "not a competitor" to WoW so that makes me think they'll take a more action-oriented approach. And when he says "A little more broad appeal" I think he means "Kinda like call of duty!"

Please do not be a Star Craft MMO. I like star craft as an RTS, I can see it as a cool MMO, but please keep making the RTS's every 10 years is a bit long of a window but that is better than making it an MMO.

@vortex_gw I would imagine that this is just a placeholder title for the game. Excited to see what the details are though.

Titan? Why don't they choose a name that doesn't point at Warhammer 40k and says, "Hahah, we ripped you off again!"? After The Old Republic comes out you won't need any other MMO.

If it's blizzard. I'm going to give it a shot.

Oh boy.

"more broad appeal" than WoW? Nothing like setting your sights high

A couple of weeks ago gamespot posted this. and it actually said titan on there. Could this really be their release schedule? << LINK REMOVED >>

@Shawn45 you realize blizzard has such a strong name brand and also damn near fantatical player loyalty that they could release one of the worst MMO launches ever and turn it out to be gold by years end with patches. They dont need the ----Craft games to sell their new product, unlike you (which is fine don't get me wrong) most wow players never even played any prior warcraft games and could care less if it was even warcraft at all.

hopefully "titan" is just a code-name, because it's too generic sounding. also, the only way it's going to NOT compete with WoW is if it's for consoles only. and even then, a lot of people have both PC and consoles.. oh blizzard. you so crazy.

dosent blizzard already have wow? how many more mmo's do they need! They are a cash cow they are making so much money and if this is succesful blizzard will be super rich

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Shawn45: Well they have to start somewhere. I have no doubt it will be a success

How could it not be a competitor, it's in the MMOG genre. I'm pretty sure it's going to be some Sci-Fi FPS, that will probably have RPG elements. It's going to be interesting, either it's in competition with Activisions FPS, or Blizzards MMORPG. The other interesting bit of information is that it sounds like a new IP, which they haven't done in a long time. Going to be interesting to see what they're developing.

Making an MMO on a new property is suicide in my opinion. The only reason I bought and played WoW was because I LOVED the warcraft series before it. If there hadn't been a built in fanbase for WoW already, I don't think it would have done nearly as well, especially considering how horribly buggy it was in the beginning. Also, how CAN'T this be in direct competition with WoW? I'm not going to pay 30 bucks a month on online games, it would only be one or the other. Unless if you're subscribed to one you're also subscribed to the other (Now there's an idea). I feel like Blizzard has an inflated ego from all the success they've had lately, I think it's going to bomb.

Sweet

Cant wait if there is a new MMO game from Blizzard. Blizzard is all about quality :)

oh boy!
