I hope you don't have to pay some exorbitant amount of money to play (I'm talking to you, WoW) Cause I'd be first in line to buy this game.
God Emperor protect us: 40K MMO sallying forth from the Eye of Terror!

I just randomly bumped into Vigil Games home page, and they list the 40K MMO as their next project. SO I guess that answers the question of who's doing the work.

Vigil are the guys that gave us the recent Darksiders. Hm. I don't know what to make of that. I mean, I liked Darksiders, but I don't see connection here (aside from, you know, massive pauldrons).

i think it'd be cool if for imperium you could play as Sister Hospitaler (healer), imperial guard (ranged dps), space marine (tank) and grey knight (melee dps).
No Tau? How can thay have a 40k MMO without one player race that's sane?
But it could be really awesome anyway... here's hoping for some new gameplay instead of constant WoW clones.
And spaceports. I'd really like a spaceport in a game with actual docked ships and so on. Really random, but yeah...

Never mind orks! What about Chaos? You try to get a quest off a guy, and halfway through his dialouge, he suddenly screams horribly and his head crumples inwards, spraying gore everywhereKilaknux said:
As you try to complete a mission, you either randomly play host to a deamon and explode violently, or you suddenly mutate, with a huge claw growing from your abdomen
I like the idea of playing as a Kroot, maybe a roughish class, also make it a MMO3PS like others have said, or first person, that would be nice too I guess.
Damn it, this has the worst timing possible. I can't logically play both the Old Republic and a 40K MMO and still have time for other things... what to do, what to do....
Yes, they're cool, but I still doubt they'd work as playable characters in an MMO.BaronFelX said:
But fine, if that's how you want to play it... DEATH TO THE FALSE EMPEROR!!! The forces of Chaos will rip your corpse-God from his throne, and kind Grandfather Nurgle will bestow his gifts on the people of your Imperium.
Inquisition would never happen as an MMO though. I'd really want to see it as a single player RPG like Mass Effect, flying round plannets picking up mercs and bounty hunters and psychics to form a team would work perfectly. Plus there'd be huge levels of customisation available as the inquisition have the more wargear available to them than anyone else.Sonicron said:
If it was like Planetside or up and coming APB it could work. Not so much an RPG but a 1st/3rd person shooter with huge sides.
40K isn't just about guns. Its also about epic close combat swordfights with laser swords and powerfists. If you've ever read any of the Eisenhorn, Space Wolf or Horus Heresy series you would see how essential and awesome close combat in 40K is.WolfLordAndy said:
I might just look into this. Imperial Guard of course. I do hold the rank of Major after all. (At least, thats what it says in my Imperial Infantryman's Uplifting Primer) Remember folks, beware the Tau, they will sacrifice your babies to their gods.
The orks will be weird. A faction that gets richer the more it gets beaten up! I wants mah teef.
Several, several months (when I was drunk) ago I posted a question about how Orks would play out. I dont play 40K, but its my understanding that the big 'crux' of the orks are that as long as they believe something, its true (IE if they dont look at the fuel gauges in their planes, they can keep on flying)
So how will this work out in gameplay? Or is it really not that important to the orks? Just curious.

This sounds... incredibly disappointing so far.
Plus it's made by Vigil. Darksiders was hardly great, though maybe because their GOOD team was working on this MMO?
I just mean like:
29 Zones (21 claimable, 8 invadeable)
What is a "zone" here. Because if a zone is what I'm thinking a zone is then that's just not anywhere near enough zones.

It's not really important to the Orks. This is really just a plot device by games workshop to allow them to do incredibly ludicrous things but still fit into the canon in an explainable way. For instance they can have windows on their space ships and shoot out them, but since they don't know space is a vacuum without oxygen then that's okay.almostgold said:
The thing is that your proposing a game balanced down to the weakest fighting units in the 40K universe. If an Imperial Guardsman is the standard, then you really can't have any other classes because they'll all out class him 1 on 1. The way I see it is that you swell up any confrontation with more IG NPCs. Not only does it create a meaningful playing field (an IG battle should have thousands and thousands of soldiers), but it also means we can be Space Marines and Chaos Marines and things that are actually fun to play.Sonicron said:
