Which genre needs to be exploited more?
Yeah... when it comes to F2P or B2P games, which genre needs further exploiting?
I, for one, am getting somewhat tired of Fantasy MMOs, seriously. In my opinion the one that needs some good exploiting is the Survival/Horror genre. I know some MMORPGs like Exanimus are in the works, but that one will be P2P, from what I know.
What's your opinion on the subject?

Horror ones, there are already some sci-fi's and ...a lot of asian oriental, and fantasy MMO's.
And when I mean horror, I mean, actually SCARY. Creepy, and, sometimes "OMFG" * Falls off seat, terrified*...that kind of scary. Freaking red liquid flying out of bunnies everytime you hit them with a stick = not scary. I see what you did there Requiem, not clever, not scary.

I think it would be fun to have a game where the whole world is a city, and you have to fend for yourself against thugs, etc.
I guess like CoH/CoV, but I've never played those games.

Yeah... Requiem went more towards Gore, instead of true Horror and the like.Originally Posted by DivineRevival
Scary looking creatures won't do it either, what they need is to make a game with a good feeling of dread, you know, with the right atmosphere. I think something with the mood of Fatal Frame would be nice enough, of course, with guns and stuff instead of cameras.

I agree on the horror theme, but something ala chtulhu stories, SP 1 does a similar thing but I heard it's a typical korean grinder with just the "horror" theme and that's it, could be wrong tho
but one thing they should STOP USING FOREVER it's both asian and anime kiddy ******ed style, I'm ****ing sick of those

there needs to be more mmorpg's with traps like you fall in a whole with spike in it or some boulders come dropping on your head and kill you they dont put any traps in mmorpgs just bombs u can place. yea they are lacking on horror the most out of the mmorpg's. i want to see zombies and stuff like i seen on elder scrolls oblivion coming out of dark areas out of know where.

Horror MMORPG in a town that has lots of mist and its also a FPS, you can level up you can increase your skills defend mobs, add attribute points take cover behind walls and all that stuff but its a MMORPG...that would be epic.

They should do a game with nowdays weapons... not swords, axes...bow and arrow..
They should make a MMORPG with guns and bombs...
Classes divided like Pistol user, Machinegun user, Shotgun user, rifle user, scout user....

Definately an MMOFPS world, no futuristic crap, a modern or Civil war sensed one would be awesome, hell, WWII would do fine too.

Yeahh.. every game has the fking same thing..
Swords, Axes, Bows, Knifes, Hammers, Wands...
Every game looks like the other...
They should make a MMORPG with Fps features.. and no futuristic like laser guns, real guns.. ..

theres one very close to this what you said it was called ww2 online know it called battleground europe. its basicaly mmofps becouse its 1 map the map is as huge as europe is in real life its litteraly take you the same amount of time to travel across that map as it would to travel across europs map.allied vs germans has huge towns more then 5x bigger then any town in any mmorpg and its basicaly like having all the equipment you had in ww2 all the types of tanks,planes,boats,aa,at,and transport vehicles all the vehicles when you use them are like there own simulator its awsome. once 1 side take the whole map over ussualy takes month or way more depends how the battle goes then map starts over. all your kills stats are recorded forever.

That's actually the prob. a little more than half of the MMO makers don't try to make new type of MMOs. Instead of making a sci-fi MMO, comical MMO, or Urban themed MMO, and willing to attempt to make it 3D and fast-paced, all those MMO makers do, is keep making Fantasy MMOs that are all the same, have to play as either one color of human or a elf, and they always make it a point in click.
Enough! We already have more crappy and grindy Fantasy MMOs than necessary. I feel like it's time for something new.

dont want to argue with you but its much more then just another fps its not server based iether.its the closest thing to ww2 you can get on a game yea its a mmofps becouse its more then 500+ people on 1 server.and you rank up in this game allowing you to use other vehicles things. all the ranks are real military ranks.

requiem is pretty close to our time . actually looking to the design of house and etc they do actually look close to our age and not fantasy genre . So id say Requiem is close to urban/science fiction mmo with gory features

horror and i mean survival mmo type horror the ways in which companies could use this to their advantage is just crazy.... i always wanted to try capcoms resident evil outbreaks online but purchased a copy well after the servers shut down (for what reason i really dont know) but yeah survival horrors with nice next gen graphics bla bla bla would be awesome i really hope capcom try something like that again

the problems is : will people actually play it ? will there be a high enough popularity ? that why there not much of those games people tend to stick with the fantasy genre ex: WAR(coming soon) , WoW , Rohan etc. Im not putting requiem in this list its closer to urban like i said but w/e.
so yeah they think its a risk to launch a new theme mmo to the market.

Do you kill each other or do you kill Monsters and bosses, do quests, and grind, while holding guns?
If you kill each other, than its just another fps.
Reputation: 12
well you have to kill off the towns defences wich every town has posted ai so you cant just run in and take it. you have to set a mission wich can be called a quest in order to get rank. rank can be considered lvl couse the higher rank you have the more command you have and other vehicles. rank is a grind in the end but thats last ranks. yea. so ai can be considered monster,missions looked at like quests, and grind can be considered geting your rank up. yea all while holding gun or what ever you are at the time.

Dude, its just another fps.. The fact that you play it doesnt make it an unique game...
You can consider a ******* to be a woman, but when you go deep into her, you will find out that its just a *******.

you aparently havent played enough fps to see the difference. theres slim to none fps that let you fight with over 500+ people on the map of europe its the actual map of europe real towns of europe. you need to play this game then talk. ive played lots of fps and liked them but there still jsut another fps this one is by far more advance and has mmorpg content/affect put into it. im not gonna argue with it about it anymore. just another fps is 30/60 players server based fpsgame.play it then talk to me again.

Who the **** said that? Are you blind or something? Are you ******ed or something?
I Said WWII is a FPS with MMORPG FEATURES..
You know what FEATURES STANDS FOR?
