Lego MMO launching in 2014

What happened to the other Lego game?

@sirdukefillion new new new... everything is new to you, isn't it

I swear they released one of these before, guess it didn't turn out so well.

and one figure will cost 10 to 15 bucks

Love the face of the guy on the left :P

this is a WoW killer. fo sho

Ohh SH*T!! LOL

Lego has better lore than WoW nowadays.

Welp, it was bound to happen with this series as well...

What's worse than F2P that's actually pay-to-win? Pay-to-step-on-legos-barefoot.

OP Fairy FTW!

@DaneGamer Yes, the Lego brand has shown that it can make a quality product and there are a lot of directions that a Lego MMO can go in terms of personalization and even building.

I see a danger in the developers being handicapped by a family friendly approach. Hopefully they will take the gameplay seriously because way too many "kid" games end up being overly simple. Kids are smart and will appreciate a challenging game.

I wonder how much the servers cost for MMO's. It must be almost prohibitively expensive because it seems like any MMO that slips from being wildly successful ends up shutting down from lack of revenue.

World of Legocraft

Can it technically be called an "MMO" when the MMO-to-world population ratio is 2:3?

Sweet. So instead of Funcom focusing on Dreamfall and TLJ like they should be, they are wasting time on ANOTHER new franchise. Don't get me wrong, I REALLY like Secret World, I hear Age of Conan was decent and I had fun with Bloodline...but that being said we all want Dreamfall and TLJ to finish. They've kept us waiting on a cliffhanger for far too long and it's terrible. That being said, I'm sure this game will be much more fun than the last Lego MMO...I have faith in Funcom.

MMO = cash scam.

I read this as Lego MMA and now I'm kind of disappointed that it's not...

haha! I'll probably try this if it's a f2p xD Never gonna pay for it though.

I originally wrote this off as a kids MMO, but seeing now that it's being developed by Funcom, I'm now interested and this may actually be good. I like The Secret World even though you die way too much, so I'm now interested since I think it will be for more than just kids since Funcom is behind this.

Followed!

why do lego games exist?

lol, let me just lay it out on an all u can eat platter:

the gaming industry has changed forever. msoft's idiocy was nothing compared to what we're going to see in the next 2 years.

The last Lego online game failed, and I expect this to, too.

Too bad, you'd think a Lego MMO would be very unique and different from other modern MMOs.

Oh God, please not Funcom!!!

Wat?

Player housing using lego brinks or GTFO. Nuts and Bolts like gameplay to solve puzzles... this game practically makes itself.

Expect same old boring MMO trappings and extremely restricted building. Wasted potential.

They tried this before

This'll probably get shut down as quick as the last one....

I'll wait for Lego Marvel Superheroes....that's gonna be a good game...

What? Didn't Lego already made an MMO and it failed hard?

The only way to make this work is to let people plays as the Lego characters from the movie or comic based sets, such as Batman, Lord of the Rings, Stars Wars, etc, but from looking at the pictures, that doesn't seem to be the case. I think I'll stick to playing the Lego Lord of the Rings game.

I don't think this is worth your talent Tt make some more awesome games like LEGO TMNT or LEGO power rangers, just not an MMO

And there was me thinking that Travellers Tales had the Lego stuff nailed down tighter than a nats arse.

I was pretty interested until they said only 2 abilities, and then it does not seem like there is any loot or skill trees so...........

Don't blame me, but I think that LEGO and Minecraft have so much in common that they should consider a sandbox game. There are too many MMOs already and personally, I wouldn't play a LEGO MMO.

Oh yayz, another hacked off lego game.

I don't think that young kids have the resources to sustain an MMO, and I can't imagine a lot of adults/young adults play these games.

Funcom, enough said, not interested. Their only potential game was Age of Conan, but they did it in the same world with WoW.
