Last news I read about this project was pretty grim (laying off staff). It seems a shame since this franchise from what I can tell would attract a prettty large following.
Also given that the game is focussed on vampires with no small emphasis on fasion, it also seems lucrative if you adopt a free to play module allowing for the purchase of non-game-changing fashionable clothing with real money (as other online multiplayer games are doing).
Anyway, any word that this project is still moving ahead? Or is it on hiatus? |

The only thing I know, is that ccp is hiring people for Atlanta office, so that's a decent sign. |

No, you can't get an update. "CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"

Where did you hear that one? It is known that WiS technology was supposed to be used in WoD but that doesn-¦t automatically make it a fashion show game. Forum-unbanned since 2011.10.20.

I for one do not look forward to soiling expensive clothing with the blood of my enemies so I will not spend real life cash on clothing. The only clothes I will wear, if and when we are blessed with a release, are those that are given to my character for free........Or those that I loot of your extra dead corpse....please please loot on death |

They very specifically stated that there would be a significant emphasis on fashion. It's not a fashion show game but it would be pretty ridiculous if you walk into a room/manshion/party hosted by "high vampire society" and everyone is wearing identical or mundane ****. |

For your own character though, I imagine blood will look good on a Nosferatu's dominatrix outfit. Just something to consider. |

Sorry but I prefer my capsule and weapons of mass destruction... Besides we already have the Blood Raiders in EVE.
I'd probably try WoD out seeing that its a CCP game but Vampires really are not my thing. I still hope it succeeds for CCPs sake. People, who talk, don't know. People, who know, don't talk.

Though tbh, what I am reading about Star Citizen it really won't hurt eve's player base too much, there are too many things about Sc that make it.. mmm not eve.
The market alone being controlled by NPC orders is enough to make some people not take the plundge.
But we will see.
however, if it is successfully, then yea hopefully it will light a fire under ccp's ass to expand on thigns that player want. A lot of players want WiS but -overly costly items.
and some of us want WoD, I have been wanting to play it for years... so damn it ccp make it! |

I just had the startling revelation that I'm super excited for this game, but I have no idea what it's even about. Well, I mean i know it's about vampires, but what do you even do? Or have they not even said yet?
If possible, I just wanna run some super secret, exclusive nightclub and make everyone refer to me as Mistress while I sit around smoking a kiseru in chair that's way to big for me while I wear a robe that's way too small for me. |

Only a couple of months to Fanfest OP (don't know the exact date but it's not far off). The last couple of years there has been a dribble of information.
Considering the lifecycle of MMO development and the fact that they have nothing tangible to announce so far I wouldn't get your hopes up too far.
This years Fanfest should give you some information even if it only negative - in the sense that nothing more than fluff probably means we won't be hearing anything substantial this year. |

The lifecycle of CCP development ... I'd rather not stick my neck out by making any predictions.
But I was alluding to a couple of things, firstly that five years from project inception to delivery is quite normall for AAA games, including MMOs, although there will always be exceptions and it's not a hard and fast rule.
Secondly, it's quite normal to not hear anything until a game is close to alpha, for many reasons, not least of which building unreal expectations on delivery date, which is still going to be uncertain.
It's interesting to speculate about the changes in the last few years and what effect they may have had on CCPs plans for WoD, e.g. the rise of Free-to-play (sic), the failure of SWTOR, the scrapping of Titan, rise of WoT and LoL, etc. |

Even from what the CCP says about development. Usual stuff. We have seen it before. _¦Å-æ-»¦Ñ¦¼-Ä_-¢-å¦ä_-½-»-å¦ÿ-ò-û¦¦ |

People been asking me about this, as if I would know. No, there is no "planet vampire" to go visit with my space ship and look down on to see if the coffins are opened or something.
Looking up on the issue, I get the impression that CCP is trying real hard to make sure WoD does not get a "meh" release, as if it's going to be just another MMO that comes and goes in 6 months. This means being dynamic - working on the project while keeping an eye out for what fails and what works and keeping the newest tech in that develops as well. This can not be an easy task. How many MMOs have we seen that took a few years to develop but would have been successful if it were released at roughly the same time the development started?
And frankly, I think CCP is capable of pulling that off. Don't think so? What's this space game that people like to hate so much but keep on playing? Bring back DEEEEP Space! |

Maybe they have made some research and from the looks of it, they deducted, we can't make money on this, like with DUST, and its one game too much for the CCP to handle. _¦Å-æ-»¦Ñ¦¼-Ä_-¢-å¦ä_-½-»-å¦ÿ-ò-û¦¦ |

They said it would be made in the image of Vampire the Masquerade. Maybe they're having trouble transforming the success of the singleplayer game into an multiplayer one? |

At this time it is assumed you the player will be able to own a haven if not eventually have your own nightclub and or hopefully other buildings/businesses. As to your statement of not knowing what the game will be about I would suggest reading up on the lore of White Wolf VtM:V20 http://www.thesubnet.com/portal/wod/vtm20/index.html and there is other info/assumptions/opinions here http://newsbynight.net/
Edit: Also there are many communities out there dedicated to WoDO and the hopes it will see the "light of day" soon xD |

Yeah, CCP, more news on this would be great. I do not know why you keep sacking people working on it. If you must sack people off, sack DUST people, who cares about PS3 crap? WoD MMO deserves to be made, especially if it is made by you guys... |

Shut down WIS to appease whiners. Essentially shut down WOD. Monetize DUST into every other F2P, P2W shooter. Continue modeling EVE towards the 1% super rich douche nozzels. Wonder why star citizen makes more in 6 months than you make all year..... |

Of course, Iceland just went through a crazy financial incident, on the recovering side of things, just glad EVE/CCP survived it. But yes, flee to SC, just don't forget to contract your stuff over to me on your way out ;) |

Because it appeals to "normal people".
Either that or it has an extremely good marketing team. People, who talk, don't know. People, who know, don't talk.
