Hey guys, i havent kept up with MMOs for a couple years much really.  I know there might not be a exact date but curious on when one of the "bigger" MMOs are suppose to release?  As in the first one.  I might come back to PC gaming after 2.5 years away from it.

    February 30.

    More seriously, a lot depends on what you regard as a "bigger" MMO.

    Which one is Feb 30?  I was meaning games like Pantheon, Camelot Unchained, Crowfall, etc.  Not something too small.  I know there isnt the AAA MMOs right now being developed well unless the Amazon one is but that one is a ways out.

    There is nothing major coming out anytime soon. Closest one is Revelation Online, but its not really all that great. Many far better games than it already on the market.

    2017 

    Revelation Online, Bless Online, MU Legend, Lineage Eternal, Moonlight Blade, Age Of Wushu 2 and maybe Peria Chronicles. 

    Dark And Light too but do not know how much mmo it will be.

    My money is on Crowfall in Q4.
    I don't think we will see any other MMORPGs released this year except for Survival games such as DnL and Conan Exiles.

    Problem is they start covering so many games that are in early alpha that it seems like development is forever
  • MightyUncleanMightyUnclean Member EpicPosts: 3,531
    Ummm, well, Albion Online might be some time mid-year.  It's no AAA, but what is these days?
  • DauzqulDauzqul Member RarePosts: 1,982
    Bless Online and Lost Ark, and Lineage Eternal really have my interest. I'm not a fan of Asian games, but these three are certainly better than what the west can currently offer.

    Dark and light is really the only game (not so mmo... I know) that has any chance of coming out this year.

    Pantheon and CU are rumored for  Q4'ish 2017....  but it is most likely 2018; and that is only any sort of larger beta.

    Crowfall... Maybe mid or late 2017.  I think that has the best chance of coming out in 2017 compared to the other titles, just by judging where they are in development compared to the other games.

    The way mmo's were: Community, Exploration, Character Development, Conquest.

    The way mmo's are now : Cut-Scenes,Cut-Scenes, solo Questing, Cut-Scenes...

    Wow, talk about depressing.

    It wasn't that long ago that several new AAA MMOs were being launched every year.

    Just like H1Z1 ,there is more profit in just continuing the cherade.

    I am certain that every single developer pays attention and they see the added income a disguised release does.So every single developer now,aside from single player games is going to release as early access and milk it for as long as they can ,then when all things die out create a new ad campaign to pretend there is a NEW RELEASE party happening.

    These tactics tell us one thing for certain,they are releasing unfinished crap but some smart person along the way found a way to market these crap releases and brand them as something different.

    I know of one actual release that i fully expects releases this year and that is the FFXI mobile version but i am not even sure if it is just a new chapter or a port over.Square Enix doesn't play these head games that so many over in NA seem to rely on,yes Nexon will operate it and yes will be a huge cash shop grind but it is what it is,that is your guarantee release for the year,everything else will be cheap unfinished EA.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Just follow this site,all of these crappy unfinished releases send their ad campaigns to this site,so you can bet you will eventually see all the C D E and bottom of the barrel F minus games.
