    No Sorry,

     

    It's been pretty quiet since their first press release i believe they are getting their MMO team assembled before they announce the game judging from their site.

    Names Used - Garfinkel, MGarf, Scripter, Mrg11545 etc..

    Well, no new info but new rumours.

    1. WotC has a new D&D ruleset in the making (ver 4.0) and it's thought to be mmo-friendly.

    2. A senior Bioware guy gave a lecture about the MMO market at a recent conference - in short he says that to be successful (in a money way) you need to make a WoW clone. There was a thread about it on here maybe a week ago.

    Here's the link about the conference: http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=15386

    Gordon 'Tyrant' Walton - that "senior BioWare guy" - is making a great analysis, but I think saying he claims you need to make a WoW close to be successful is taking it a bit wrong. WoW has done many things right, but its fully possible to adapt his 12 points to another style of MMOG, maybe except the strong brand part which is one of Blizzard's absolute key assets.
