'Titan' confirmed as Blizzard's new MMO

#1 Edited by FluxWaveZ (17873 posts) - 2 years, 5 months ago

All that's known about it so far is that it's considered a "next-generation" MMO and that its purpose is not to replace World of Warcraft. It'll be something different. The rumor, following Blizzard's product slate leak from a couple of weeks ago stated that it's going to be an MMOFPS. Also, it's probably supposed to be released in Q4 of 2013.

It wasn't confirmed before; it was just a rumor. At least now, we have an actual confirmation that this exists.

I have never been a big fan of Blizzard games outside of their awesome cinematics. So I will just wait until I see more of it.

Didn't actually know the name had leaked.

Why would they release it in the same quarter as the WoW expansion?
 
Also, I wonder what SC2:Phoenix will be.

@MadeinFinland: 99% sure that Titan is just the codename being used internally.

The only MMO that has a chance of dethroning WoW is another MMO made by Blizzard.

bad idea imo...start on WoW2 that thing will be MASSIVE. 
Heres an idea how about the characted in WoW2 is the child of your character in WoW1 and you get special perks depending on your wow1 character.

This isn't confirmed either.  And that same image had been posted a couple weeks ago.

Confirmed isn't confirmed until there's a press release.

How is it not confirmed when it comes from the senior Vice President of the company? If anything, it at least confirms that they're actively planning on a new MMO.

Because as he even said, it's just something they've been talking about.  Its entirely possible the idea gets scrapped before it goes into full-on development.

 Blizzard President President Mike Morhaime has already stated that whatever their next MMO is, it won't outright replace WoW on the market  

This guy must be bad ass to have two titles in his name.

@melcene: Reasonable, but it can't honestly be expected that they'll scrap this idea. They've been hinting for a while now that they've been considering making a free-to-play MMO to co-exist with WoW and their release slate + the VP's mention of it make for them at least working on it a little bit. But even if this was officially announced, it could get scrapped.

The most exciting thing on that graph is that diablo is only a year away

Next Starcraft: Ghost, I'm calling it. Oh wait.........maybe this is Starcraft: Ghost but in MMO form. O.o

Absolutely true.  And these days larger companies seem more apt to shut doors on an MMO that they see as losing money.   *coughEAcough*  I'll remain pretty skeptical about this for some time.

Wouldn't that just be a StarCraft MMO really then?
#25 Posted by Bones8677 (3085 posts) - 2 years, 5 months ago

Titan doesn't really mean anything. For all we know it's still just a codename.

Yeah, it's still just a codename.

It's gonna be the CoD MMO.

@Hitchenson: Ghost wasn't an RTS though.
