Yeah so CCP finally 'officially' announced their second MMO, and showed a private screening of a short film. Here. It will be interesting to see how this pans out, and how it might influence CCP's work with EVE, more so with WIS and how it might move forward in the future.

Different game different Team. The only connections with eve would be that its by CCP, and maybe EvE provided capital to get it rolling, but it will have its own everything really. I don't see how this will effect eve.
Vampires are a big seller they never get old. They have a huge cult following. Even ****ty Vampire books make it big because of this. Cough* Cough* Twilight.. Cough* Cough*....

Well I think it is somewhat relevant in that obviously both EVE and WOD will use the Carbon engine stuff. I think there could be some kind of 'gameplay' or game design considerations in terms of Incarna, and Incarna's future in relation to ideas resonating from WOD or how Incarna can in turn resonate with WOD. But obviously we ain't going to start seeing emo vampires in spaceships... yet anyway

One thing I thought when I watched that short film, If they can make the game with that much foreboding, blood, and sex appeal, then I hope we get that kinda of stuff in Incarna.

I for one, welcome the arrival of WoD, but that said I probably won't be playing it since I'm a internet spaceship pilot, and we all know that's serious biz 
But that said, being the awesomness that CCP is, it's a major + in my book either way.

I for one welcomes our new vamp overlords! 
This mean I will be playing two MMOs in the future; both made by the same company! Hehehehe! CCP can truly say they are now on their path to world dominion!

One thing the video does reveal is that art direction seems good, but then I already expected that. EVE's one of the best-looking MMORPGs out there.
I'm talking about art direction, by the way, not brownbloom and polygon count.

and you know this because. . .
TBS though virtualy all of the people who I knew played Vampire: The Masquerade were male fans of Ann Rice, but that may just be my percetion.)granted its kind of hard not to have that perception when the roughly 20 people who are local members of the V:TM group includes only 5 (total) fm members.
Around here there seems to be more Female midevil/renesance fantasy (ala Tolkin/Forgoten relms)LARPA players than male, but only slightly. (about 48% male to 52% Female roughly)

At least World of Darkness is a decent setting. Not into the whole Vampire thing, but I thought Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines was a pretty decent RPG so I'll probably give this a shot. I'm interested to know if CCP will follow with EVEs 'harsh mistress' approach, or if it's just going to be a standard hack and slash WoW clone affair.
But dear god will the twilight fans flock.

You know, now that I think about it, I cannot believe there hasn't been a good attempt at a Vampire MMO done yet by any big gaming company. But I never would have guessed that of all companies out there, CCP was the one to take a serious stab at a Vampire MMO. But that's pretty cool because I can definitely expect a very cutthroat vampire world that way. (sandbox mmo's ftw)

Easy.
It's not a folow-the-leader WoW-clone. It's not a Hollywood franchise IP cash-in. It requires player-generated drama.
All of these means that all other MMO manufacturers are inherently incapable of creating it. Blizzard might, but it's not one of their IPs, so there goes that possibility.
àthe only question is: how on earth do we get CCP to pick up the Shadowrun IP?  ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Indeed then EVE Online and World of Darkness are based on the same CARBON technology foundation.
We have in the last few years split up the code of EVE into game-specific and game-agnostic parts, creating the CARBON framework that will be used by World of Darkness and DUST 514. A lot of the code that has been written for World of Darkness, in particular the avatar-specific code, will in turn be used in the Incarna expansion of EVE.

It looks like CCP haven't followed current graphics trends, and are actually utilizing vivid colors in Carbon.
For Carbon to be marketable, they'll need to add brownbloom support. Basically, the graphics should look like someone smeared human excrement all over the game geometry and models, and as though they're being viewed through a foggy lens.

Marketable doesn't necessarily mean licensing, but at least that is good to see. I am more curious on current and/or future projects by CCP. Seeing how the feature page for this winter reads like a hybrid of a press release and an investor portfolio statement you can't blame people for being curious.
Catbon reads like it could be quite interestng as a cornerstone element in it all. Just one question if I may, is Carbon the result of or partial result of corification processes over time?

Does CCP/White-Wolf intend to release this as a Vampire: The Masquerade (Gothic-punk, dark comic graphic novel atmosphere) or a Vampire The Requiem setting (a fictional, yet faux-reaity, aimless, souless, dry setting that's not cold, but really has no sense of what it is anymore beyond being an excuse to sell new books with a new, justifiably improved ruleset.) ? |

It's the combined result of corification of the game-agnostic code of EVE on one hand and new development of EVE and World of Darkness on the other hand.

I've always liked the catiff, clanless is fun

I hope they do it in sandbox style like eve, the level of freedom is one of the things that makes EvE great. The whole atmosphere is also very important however the trailer looks like its staying fairly close which is nice. -The sword is only as sharp as the one who wields it.

So many events in that game stuck with me, which is rare these days. Characters and everything were so vivid. AI was a little buggy, but we can blame that on Valve.

Possibly, but World of Darkness had not been officially announced then, even though it's one of CCP's worst kept secrets... 
But it has been announced now and therefore we are able to talk about EVE Online, DUST 514, World of Darkness and CARBON (the common technology foundation) and explain in more detail how they are linked or a part of the same strategy of shared code and BattleTesting.

See this dev blog: - CCP has a technical vision of sharing game-agnostic code between different projects. We have a Core Technology team that works specifically on such code, e.g., the Trinity graphics engine, and then the game teams, such as the EVE Development team, integrate that code and build game specific functionality leveraging as much of the CCP Core Technology Platform as possible. When writing new functionality, the game teams are encouraged to separate the game-specific code from the game-agnostic code and submit as additions and enhancements to the CCP Core Technology Platform. That way all the different development teams within CCP further all our projects. (True leveraging of global synergies.)
Of course the CCP Core Technology Platform, as stands today, didn't come into existence this way. It was originally written simply as a part of EVE and then later the game-agnostic parts were extracted from it. This process has come to be known internally at CCP as "corification", and the act of releasing Core Technology Platform enhancements to EVE Online is called "battletesting". and this dev blog: - As CCP and EVE continue to grow, it makes sense for us to consider our existing technologies and re-use these if appropriate across our projects as part of the Carbon framework. This becomes more appealing if those technologies are proven (or, as we call it, æbattletested') in the crucible that is a game being used by a passionate, resourceful and sometimes devious player base. Furthermore, as our new projects continue to mature, we can take the technologies developed by them and apply them to EVE. This means that the EVE development teams get some great new technologies which it hasn't had to spend any developer time creating. Having the CTG take the strain making this happen ensures the EVE developers can concentrate on developing EVE and make best use of this common technology.

-Liang
Aesthetically speaking:
VTM: -Simplicity. -Strong Gothicpunk ambiance. -Straightforward unabashedly comic approach to setting (a don't ask why (strictly speaking) set of reasons for things that are for the most part coherent.) -An underlying & fictionally hinted at via writing style of various speakers that produced an ambiance of: - this is how it is IRL. Even if everyone reading and writing the material is mature and well aware it's all just a game. Note this was much more prevalent in early to mid era White Wolf written material. As development progressed, it became more and more surreal. Clearly a game / comic setting.
VTR: -Complexity. -Rationalized vampires in a faux-real-world-esque setting, -A lack of signal and a lot of noise when trying to grasp onto the setting as a whole. It's a bit like a shoebox of ideas all thrown together, jumbled around, reconfigured and subsequently laid out with much attention paid to detail and execution. Yet in the process Vampire seems to have lost its heart and soul.
In many respects from an aesthetic point of view, one can endlessly argue for either as a valid way to play "Vampire". Yet honestly i'm of the opinion that VTR got lost in its myriad of possible ways to be played. If i want complexity and rational explanations for nearly everything, I'll play Eve + Incarna.

While the narrator/gamemaster will make a lot of difference:
VTM: - world spanning ambientation where he "elders" are really much more powerful than the "young" vampires, you have to fight teeth and nails to climb the ladder of vampire political power and the increase in your vampire powers has very clear upper limits unless you drink the "soul" of a elder, something that if discovered will likely make you the target of a death hunt; - nice backstory with Caino as the first vampire and your most important trait (generation) showing of far removed you are from him; - good for a game where new players will not be too disadvantaged (game mechanic wise) against players with more years of gaming time while the player RL political/relational skills will have a real impact.
VTR: - more localized playing with weaker links with other cities, the gap between "elders" and "young" vampires is much narrower, the increase in your vampire powers is easier and not really limited by your generation; - backstory is less developed; - using that set of rules the time you have played will make a larger difference in your personal power advantaging older players instead of more politically savvy players.
Note that I really hope that the "elders" will be NPC only (what age/generation will mark an elder is something that should be balanced by CCP). |

Fixed. The cross-overs almost universally sucked anywayà 
While I'm glad that it is just Vampires I would disagree that the other games sucked... It's just that they were different games. Werewolf: The Apocolypse was splatterpunk, it was all about ripping people in half and impossible odds (not least because they were fighting the wrong enemy (the Weaver being far more dangerous to Ghia than the Wyrm). However, as separate games they don't play well together, immortality means very little when you know someone who can literally change all of the rules of reality around you.
Mages in a computer game, Assension mages at least, would almost certainly suck. It might just about work for the Technocracy or the Order of Hermes but the limited number of effects possible within a coded framework would lead to spells as opposed to magic... Forces + Correspondence can be used for more than Fireballs after all  --

Yeah, this, and the fact, as I understand it, VTM has a MASSIVE following. So it should be pretty win for CCP. Look how mental everyone goes after the video is finished. I actually think, by design or not, CCP makes good calls on what demographics to go after to build alternative games (to the industry norms). Most people in the MMO industry only ever seem obsessed by being a 'WOW' Killer, and I guess who would blame them. But pure profit as a drive to build games tends to reap bland games. CCP is an indie studio that does not seem to lose its roots, even after how much they have expanded. It's been a long 7 years, but right now CCP is in an awesome place to make good MMOs, it can take risks and be cutting edge.
What's more interesting is that when you consider EVE 7 years ago, and what it has grown from in relation to CCP as a start up company. Think of everything CCP wanted to do with EVE, but at the time was unable to for monetary and technical reasons. Both WOD and DUST514 are not going to be chained to such restrictions. CCP can realized its whole vision for these games right off the bat.

Was speaking more about the characters and stories WoD has compared to the average Vampire fare, not the fans. It simply having Vampires will make the Twilight crowd show up, and they'll probably retch at the first sign of blood or the sound of a neck snapping.
The main difference to me is in WoD you're more apt to see Vampires loving every minute of being one and feeling like gods than you are ones feeling sorry for themselves. Which is why i find their Vampires more realistic. Anne Rice had this 'ooo, poor me, i'm an ageless superhuman' thing going on which wore thin after awhile.

The Incarna expansion will expand EVE to the type of players that like a sci-fi setting but don't like being a spaceship all the time and want an avatar to connect to.
DUST 514 will expand EVE to players that like a sci-fi setting but are console players or want a more fast-paced game (an FPS).
At the same time the current EVE (that we will continue to evolve) will continue to appeal to sci-fi players that want a more slow-paced strategic game.
World of Darkness will appeal to a different type of people so it won't (directly) compete with EVE and DUST 514.

Why would being gay have anything to do with the demographic at all? Jeez, some people. Gay people have been playing Eve since the beginning and are no more or less likely to be attracted to a vampire mmo than they are a spaceship mmo.

I think they're probably going on how effeminate male Vampires have become in a lot of movies. Which doesn't mean gay exactly, but it still conjures confusing feelings in the hearts of those guys who are militantly hetero. You know the type. They put a lot of effort into appearing as straight as possible for some reason.

It's called diversification but honestly, that's a pretty small-minded view to have. They will get more interest from a variety of demographics than the limited selection you mentioned. .

For fan boys out there just a hint that you won't be seeing other super naturals as a playable race since different game lines run at completely different power levels for example a wimpiest of a werewolf would easily beat the beefiest of Brujah, only things that werewolves (or garou as they are called) are vulnerable are 'mind ****' and silver. Same issues go with the rest of the game lines in OWOD, they just don't mix that well and are impossible to balance for an online game without screwing up the feeling from P&P game lines.

Yes in "Interview with a Vampire", that last scene between Louie and Armand was kind of.... close....
but this notion from Anne Rice's work about vampires lacking in desires - being somewhat celibate, was a stepping stone.
Gone was Belle Lugosi's Count Dracula who was known to like the ladies and Bram Stoker's Vlad on who this was based was all to pieces over a woman.

What Iam curious about is if CCP ever plans on releasing a single player game.
It seems odd that 3/3 if the games planned to be released are either MMOs or Online FPS. Is this due to the single player market being that bad compared to MMOs?
Its seems more suicidal in my mind for a company like CCP to release a Online FPS considering the amount of competition in that market aswell as CCP not being well known in comparison. Where as EvE has grown so well and lasted so long because its a unique niche style. Same goes for the planned WOD MMO which hits a broader niche market,
Personally Iam looking forward more to WoD then iam Dust514. So long as WoD is based more off of VTM and not the emo/homo Twilight type vampire persona.

I don't see CCP getting into the Single Player market. DUST 514 is most likely going to be the closest thing they get. More and more Single player games are going online more now. People want persistent and or DLC so either you get more MMO type games or Single player games which are persistent and have some MMO elements. There is also not too much in the way of a fully blown MMO FPS, and obviously non which connect into another MMO. Right now the closest thing would be MAG that I know of.
Obviously with Carbon now they have a big basket of goodies, but after WOD and DUST I'm not sure if they would invest in building more games for a while. Your talking about a company going from 1 MMO to suddenly having 3. They will need to iterate, and see if DUST / WOD are successful and start to pay back on the companies investment before they want to invest into another game.

Originally by: Herzog Wolfhammer but this notion from Anne Rice's work about vampires lacking in desires - being somewhat celibate, was a stepping stone.
Yeah, Vampire myths trace their origins to Succubis and Incubis, so the celibate thing is a step away from that. However it started a long time before Anne Rice, with blood drinking replacing the more intangible act of draining someones life force via sex. In modern versions, WoD included, Vampires just use their seductiveness to manipulate members of the opposite sex into doing things, and blood is often just taken from any living thing with no need for such subtleties.
It just occurred to me that male vampires becoming more androgynous looking in modern versions may be a response to them feeding from both sexes instead of being specialized in just the opposite sex, like succubis and incubis.

I personally can't wait for this one. I just reinstalled VTMB a couple weeks ago in anticipation of this. Also if anybody is interested, you can pick it up really cheap on D2D. If you haven't played it, you certainly should. It is one of the most underrated games of all time and still holds up quite well today, years after its release.

I think the drive for more MMO's is the hope to keep stringing players along on a game that has no end so you keep playing and paying rather than having to constantly 'reinvent the wheel' with a new title every few months (development taking years). They also almost "can't lose" in that they can sell you the mmo game with a month of play time for the price of a game that you own and can actually beat. With an MMO they can still charge you to keep playing whereas the single player game all they can hope is to sell you an expansion or two, likely a year or so later, with most likely less sales than the original title.
I doubt it is suicidal to make Dust514, though I personally don't see the 'got to have it' aspect of the game, maybe as time passes more will show how it is 'unique' and 'worth it' to play/try/get. From what I see I'm not the only one questioning it, though here people might have different motives for doing that, I'm so over FPS games and don't see anything 'ground breaking/OMG' about what DUST514 is/will be.

A sherif that actually kills repeat offenders, masquerade breachers and other riff raff. I want actual consequences.
I want to be able to embrace another player. (some kind of buddy system, with ingame consequences)
I want realistic populations of vampires.
I want an actual gameplay involving getting blood, and competition for same.
I want well functioning elders. (NPCs obviously)
Generation as we know it, will probably have to go, for balancing purposes.
But more than anything, I want a static and unchanging setting where what the players do never will have any "real" impact.

What do you mean by "real" impact? If the arenas don't change and there is no back-and-forth between the clans and coteries, it just wouldn't be Vampire.
I'll reply with my main... (Stupid boards wouldn't let me change my char last night, so it was time to delete an alt)
About realistic populations... If ccp is making a single city game, that would be hard. But with a possibility of hundreds, if not thousands of different cities, it should be possible..
Elders as NPC's. How else? I hope that the players will be playing ancilla, as elder positions could be considered "winning" in VtM. No fun in playing if you already won.
And about static settings. Ofcourse the arenas will change and coteries will interact, But when I say real change, I mean being able to throw an entire clan out of a city or killing off half a citys population, shouldn't be in the players power.
And to the comment about being static means boring. You clearly haven't read the prime fiction for WoD. VtM is all about being stuck in a static unchanging world, where everything you do already have been planned out by a bigger power. If that goes away, so does the charm of the game IMHO. ----------- Why is it called common sense, when it's clearly very rare.

This would mean that you get to play a vampire, while the other player at least starts as human. Unless you mean either a) you wish to bring a new player to the game by embracing a human to be their character, or b) you just want the /hug emote to be available, this idea seems pretty flawed to me.

As I wrote... A kind of buddy program, like we have in eve. You invite someone and if they accept and start playing they play as your child. Obviously this shouldn't just be done, as illegal childer will get you killed by the sherif. Maybe it could be some kind of ingame reward from the prince. (Whom I still hope will be an NPC)

Saw the short film. I have to agree it seems most likely to apeal to the demographics mentioned in several posts. Some people seemed to take offense to that. I don't know why. Chick flicks are called that for a reason. But this cracked me up. What I hope to see from WoD:
Quote: A sherif that actually kills repeat offenders, masquerade breachers and other riff raff. I want actual consequences.

But more than anything, I want a static and unchanging setting where what the players do never will have any "real" impact.
This is why I would never probably ever pay attention to the game much less pay to play it. I don't understand anything this fellow is talking about but it sounds terribly pretentious and besides, that which I don't understand I hate. But this

Damn straight. The female to male ratio in this game might actually be close to even.
There will still be plenty of sausage fest games for you to play, so don't fret.

Not all women want to play internet vampires; I sure dont.
Nothing against those that do, nothing against CCP for making it; I still prefer my spaceships, tyvm. Dirty Little Slave, reporting for duty! |

I didn't say all did. It's just something more tend to be interested in.
Women who are into internet spaceships, for example, are a very rare breed. You find more in fantasy games like WoW, but it's still not even close to the amount of guys.

No, but women are 90% to blame for the popularity of the Twilight movies.

Yeah, the first couple of days I even reported it half a dozen times. Guess the community team has its blinkers on to filter out bluebar threads.
If it wasn't a CCP game this thread might actually have the rules apply to it. -----
