I am curious on the development of the new mmo World of darkness. There is Nothing on the web about it...other then it's "there" .
Could any anyone here throw us a bone? Although I'm surprised, given all that fans have given to C.C.P when it comes to ideas.......that there isn't a public forum for WOD...for idea sharing and such.
I guess my question really is.... could you give us a taste?...
Is C.C.P proud of what they have so far?.... Is it a larger challenge then expected? Will it be a single world?
Are you going to target Twilight fans? or adult sadist's?

Although there is no real official information out there based on how CCP's game design philosophy is by now I go out on a limb here with some predictions of mine.
Originally by: Selene Asteria Will it be a single world?
Given that they have a lot of experience in operating large clusters for online games and they stated several times that they don't like sharded worlds I guess so yes.
Originally by: Selene Asteria could you give us a taste?
Since CCP is generally pretty evil in matters of teasing my guess will be that they show some early stuff at fanfest either this year or next year and than tease you a little more and then give you some real information. Prediction here from me: We won't see the game until late 2012 / early 2013. Doing good games takes a lot of time.
Originally by: Selene Asteria Are you going to target Twilight fans? or adult sadist's?
As stated before. They'll come anyhow but I think they won't stay long. The setting has a crapload of potential for a very dark, harsh and brutal world. Ah 16+ or maybe even 18+ target audience combined with a single-world sandbox thingy and some real nice PVP / PVE mechanics + boobs and blood sucking would be so awesome. I'd totally try that out even though I don't like vampires in particular.
[quote?Selene Asteria]Is it a larger challenge then expected?
If they go for the single world thingy I bet one of the issues will be latency for players from all over the globe. Such a games PVP mechanics usually respond much more drastic to stuff like that than games with EVE's design.
But I really can't wait to see more on that. Especially since EVE is currently still suffering from code "sins" from early design back when CCP started. Things they definitely won't repeat with the experience they have now. Another reason why I'm exited about what they pull off in the end with that project.

I'm not so sure about the disappointment, though, but I guess that depends on whether "****ing explode" counts as glittering.

No. It makes no sense to do the same game twice. CCP will utilize some lessons they learned from EVE and put it to good use, but they will try to cater to a totally different audience.

Yes and it makes a whole lot sense to make something entirely different with which they have zero experience and that will most likely then compete in one of the most cutthroat gaming markets currently out there.

WOD-online -> blood, death, gore, class, goth clothes, guns, sex, drugs, alkohol, great cars, class, class, class and even more class, great job, great graphics, amazing plot... 100k subscribers that criticize the game and force progress of all its aspects.
Twilight online -> shiny fairies without wings saying they are vampires, kissing censored since it's more than perverse. 500k subscribers paying ten times more per month for each account after a month of its existance, no proress of the game at all.
Now... WOD takes so long to develop because the audience is completely different. You catch my drift?

For now it seems CCP has adopted the policy that White Wolf is the channel for WoD MMO news. Which is why the teaser trailer for WoD was shown at the WoD "fanfest". Don't think there even is an official video, just a recording from the showing.
Why White Wolf and not CCP I don't know, but probably because there are more females in WoD than in EVE, the White Wolf website is acutally for end-users, as opposed to the CCP website, and of course WoD is originally a White Wholf and not a CCP / White Wolf IP.

Yeah, instead of cannibalizing their current userbase, it makes perfect sense.
You know, just like Dust is a console game which they have no experience with and it will compete in THE most cutthroat segment, console FPS.
They have to grow their userbase, not spend millions of dollars doing the same thing for the same people with a different skin.

What makes people believe it's going to be "EVE with vampires and werewolves?" They already have an EVE why make another?
Granted i'm speculating just the same which makes me no better. But lets not have another Dark Fail, or Fail Bane, etc. Perhaps i'm jaded on the Fantasy MMO kinda thing.

Last I heard WoD was in the Pre-Alpha stage or pretty much planning stage. So because of this there isn't really any news because they have nothing set to release.
As far as twilight they also stated previously that its geared more towards the VTM for those who know what that is. Its more a dark urban underground scene then a glitter Emo twilight feel. Though if they stick to this or not is a different story.

CCP has a strange thing for being in niche markets(even though Dust kindof throws that off), While it is a fantasy based MMO it also lies within a niche since its about vampires and urban setting. Where as most MMOS are D&D style of fantasy. Also having it as 2 seperate MMOs allows them to in a sense control 2 markets with the highest profit platform of gaming which is MMORPGs.

I've heard rumor of that. And it's being Masquerade 3rd edition based. So none of this namby pamby Requiem crap. Oh, and yeah. I agree with the above guy who said Malkavian. Always fun to play the loonies.

So much hate for the Toreadors... Sure, I suppose they ain't Brujas, but if you just look a little bit deeper, you'll find that they are quite capable of holding their own in situations other than beauty pageants.
Think of them like... a Vengence assault ship: tearing people to shreads is all good, but that's no reason not to look good while doing it. Toreadors can certainly be pretty to look at, but they don't really qualify as "nice", by any standard other than possibly a comparison with the other clans in wod.

Themeparks are scripted content. Stuff like dungeons/raids ( every fantasy MMO out there ), public quests (WAR), Jabba's Palace (SWG) etc. You go there, hop in the trolley and enjoy the ride.
Coffe Shop. "Chat room" with ambience. Second Life etc.
So you go to the Succubus Club, use your EMO power to bite some EMO-chick neck, then sit in the VIP lounge and circlejerk with your undead friends about how all the NPC chicks "dig you".
So basically buit-in CAOD?

Toreadors can certainly be pretty to look at, but they don't really qualify as "nice", by any standard other than possibly a comparison with the other clans in wod.
Toreador Disciplines: Presence = influence the behavior of any kind of creature, even those more powerful - good Celerity = faster reaction time and movement, more actions - good Auspex = seeing the unseen, up to emotions and thoughts - good
A Toreador with Celerity is a decent fighting machine, Auspex and Presence are great in social activity
And people thinking of Twilight should remember that even if Toreadors tend to be emo artists, a lot of them love the "artistry" of pain, blood and so on, hardly a bunch of nice guys/gals.
About "safe" territory I will remember people of the existence of the Elysium in the Camarilla cities (meting halls where combat of use of powers is forbidden and, if detected, meet swift justice) and similar even if less stringent rules for the Sabbath and Anarchs.
My only doubt is how CCP will manage perma death and give an aura of real power to the older, presumably NPC, vampires.
As it will be a game without a Storyteller/moderator/GM [choose the definition you prefer] the difference in powers between players will not be too large as it will imbalance the game, but then killing a player will become very easy and low cost if a long time player can be killed by 10 just rolled Bruja attacking as a swarm.
Who care if 9 of them die, they will be re-rolled next minute and the older character would have been destroyed. Even playing a Childe (son) of the older vampire with most of his Xp will not be the same thing, especially if it happen with an high frequency.
On the other hand make that almost impossible and the game will risk becoming stale very fast.
Hard to balance.

Looking like perma death......and god I hope so. Also this is a Vampire game...as evil as it gets... a mature rating shouldn't even be questioned. |

i doubt there will be perma-death. to easy to abuse and too hard to balance.
i was more thinking along "visibility meter". if one participates in massive gathering their visibility by other increases, which means hunters start attacking more often, and any service by peers becomes more expensive. basically, one becomes jinxed with troubles, unless they take effort to reduce their visibility. not unlike security rating in EVE. ________________________________ : Forum Bore 'Em : Foamy The Squirrel - [jedi handwave] "There is no spoon." |

It might be Permadeath in the Highlander sense rather than the Final Destination sense.
It might also be intertwined with the Masquerade. When you violate the Masquerade your Final Death may happen... or something like that.

At the very least violation of the Masquerade would have to equal a heavy standing loss with all Camarilla allied vampires and vampire clans.

Originally by: Anubis Xian It might be Permadeath in the Highlander sense rather than the Final Destination sense.
It might also be intertwined with the Masquerade. When you violate the Masquerade your Final Death may happen... or something like that.
At the very least violation of the Masquerade would have to equal a heavy standing loss with all Camarilla allied vampires and vampire clans.
and don't forget putting you on radar for mages, werewolves, hunters, and just about anyone else. and not in a good way.
Definitely would have to put you on the ****-dar. No question.

Originally by: Jagga Spikes i doubt there will be perma-death. to easy to abuse and too hard to balance.
i was more thinking along "visibility meter". if one participates in massive gathering their visibility by other increases, which means hunters start attacking more often, and any service by peers becomes more expensive. basically, one becomes jinxed with troubles, unless they take effort to reduce their visibility. not unlike security rating in EVE.
This actually sound like a very good idea... Npc ambushes in any moment, any place. Sounds even worth trying to gain volountarily for the challenge...
Problem will be dealing with death... IIRC there's nothing akin resurrection in WoD (though most "characters" have supernatural resilience and healing abilities), but once you're down basically nothing can save your ass (and it's arguable that in most cases even your "allies", especially in the vampire side, would kick you in the ribs if you get downed...)

The vampires would be the hardest to hand wave resurrection with story telling, for the reasons you mention. With Garou and Magi it is a matter of reincarnation, or at least some last minute rescue revival. With Vamps it would be open season, especially if your a low generation and helpless, then it becomes all you can eat.

Anyone expecting this game to be as cutthroat as Eve is going to end up sorely disappointed. This is CCP's chance at a mass market game with an untapped and wildly popular genre and they are not going to waste the opportunity by catering to the kinds of people who are attracted to Eve's griefing mechanics.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the way people play Eve -- I have two accounts here -- but if you're in the MMO business and you have a golden opportunity like World of Darkness you don't look at Eve and say "I want to limit it to those kinds of people."
Words like "social" and "more accessible" are very telling. As a role player I'm actually looking forward to it. I hope the vampires-only bit is only talking about supernatural creatures... because I really look forward to playing a human Hunter.

At least there, death would be easy to handle: if your character goes die or reads to many runes, you lose some rather irrelevant skills and instead pick up the story as old uncle Herb from the same dynasty of far-too-nosy investigators.

The thing is, people are having those expectations less because it's CCP and more because that's how the IP works ù if they want to draw on the World of Darkness crowd and properly represent the world, they'll need to create something that's far more cut-throat than EVE could ever hope to beà 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 |

Well hopefully they add in Humanity. Exactly in the pen and paper after killing a human your humanity drops bit by bit until the Beast overtakes you...then it's Final Death. Oh, and some diablerie would be nice. Drink older vampires blood until they die, gain their abilities. Even though it's very very illegal according to Camarilla law.

I understand what you're saying I'm just cautioning not to get your hopes up because it will never happen. You are not going to see permadeath in World of Darkness. There will be some added bit of lore that explains why your vampire is brought back to the world. Some sort of curse (or blessing from their POV) that doesn't allow these special vampires to be totally vanquished.
I'm a fan of the setting but I wouldn't play any MMO that went the permadeath route, nor would much of anyone. Can you imagine permadeath + Goons? Hilarious? Yes. Is it gonna happen? Zero chance.

ok here is your main failing, sure the CEO of CCP went to watch over the project in atlanta, and sure a lot of CCP artist and prgramers went too.
but all in all, the game is not being made by CCP, it's being made by Whitewolf.
And anyone that has played This game PnP, and I mean the fact that every single college in america has a group of 50+ people larping it, know s that it's a social game, with little combat, but it's also more cut throat and dark than eve at the same time.
And it's all because of permideath. Just the fact you'll never come back seems ok at 1st but then you're like, f that, unless there is a really good reason to risk it.
I don't know if it would work in a mmo, but keep in mind Whitewlf is makig World of Darkness, and CCP just happen to buy that company years ago.

Don't take this as criticism of you because I don't mean it that way but... people like you are a tiny minority. The vast MMO audience at large won't even go near a game with permadeath. I love the setting and I wouldn't waste my time with a free trial.
Literally the only way another player can "permadeath" you in Eve is to hack your account and reprocess your main. Yet look how much of Eve's population stays in high sec just to avoid a loss of implants and ships, let alone a character. And we're supposed to be infamous and hard core. If Eve implemented permadeath tomorrow it would have a drastically smaller player base than it has now, which is already a niche.
Can you imagine a dedicated group of griefers (goons ) set loose in a permadeath environment? And what would happen if you lagged out and died? In a small group setting with a dedicated gamemaster, permadeath can work. On an MMO, it just can't function.

Edited by: PTang on 10/01/2011 01:19:23 jada, you are not the target playerbase.
Whitewolf allready has a loyal following of about 3 million players (number of books sold, if even 10% of them were to play WoD it would be a crazy amount of income for CCP.
Those 3 million people have been playing a game with permi-death for over 10 years, and enjoying it just fine, what would change in video game form?
edit: I read the rest of your post *blush* you're right lag and not having a game master would be hard to balance, I still wouldn't write it off yet. Yo wouldn't lose experience or money if you died anyways, just like in WoD now, your experience is tied to the player not the character,
Meaning ganking people might not be profitable as it take an amount of xp to make a throw away character. I think it's possible but it would require whitewolf to think WAY out side the box.

I understand I might be a minority, but it is the way I feel. Besides, I think this is the type of game permadeath would work well in. It is socially focused as opposed to combat focused. Yeah, there will be fighting, but that does not mean it will always be to the death or even happen that frequently. Oh, and I did not take your response as a criticism of me. We all got our preferences.

Well, if you get to keep your xp, or just experience a slight loss, then it would be like rerolling a character, but with the penalty, at least that is what I surmise.
I would like to think they would include the Sabbat, Black Spiral Dancers, and the Nephandi. They probably won't though.
And not having permadeath isn't going to keep the GOONS out. Players are going to have to deal with them regardless of mechanics.

Well, I guess I learned today that my character here, 'Jowen', is my 'Coffee Shop' character.
I often end up spending more time chatting than anything else when he is logged on. I have long recognized that sometimes I like spending my night with having EVE as nothing more than "a chat channel with a fancy interface", I just never knew it had a name. In fact, I often miss this feature when playing other MMO's.
Looks good that CCP is perfectly aware of this game aspect and plan to improve on it. Guess you could say Incarna is a step on this road too.

With my game master (PnP) if we die we will get most of our experience back, but not the contacts and status we had in the city and in our clan.
Even if that wasn't an issue, "replacing" one of the characters in the gaming group once in the year (because the character die, become implayable for some reason or the player leave) is very different from each of them being killed an average of once a month by a mob of just rolled characters.
That is a serious risk in a MMORPG. On the other side of the coin, WoD without perma-death would be another game.

Imagine playing a game like WoW with perma-death where all servers were PvP. You would be lucky to get to level 10. A level 85 if there was such a thing under those conditions would be rare and could pretty much keep the rest of the population from playing effectively.
I just think perma-death does not add much incentive to stay alive as you should not need any incentive to do that. Added incentive just means you don't trust yourself to play properly.
All perma-death will do is give the real griefers a field day especially if they get organised. I certainly would not waste my time on a game that has perma-death.
Also a lot of players that play MMOs are solo players. The reason they play MMOs is because the AI systems of games become quickly predictable and other people are the best way to add real unpredictability.
Solo players just would not survive in a perma-death environment which means you are already restricting your potential player base numbers.

I'm torn between not wanting permadeath so that I can actually try out World of Darkness and wanting permadeath since I know it'll mean very few players, it will fail, and they can refocus on Eve.

As long as theres no superweapons, like elite vampires that one shot everything and mechanics that favour skill rather than numbers.
If the death mechanics are similiar to eve I dont think people would mind, but if its like wow, lol yeh then you may as well stop making the game.

Perma death will work if: 1) it is extremely rare 2) require a meaningful effort and can't be done simply for lulz
As achieving that in a MMORPG is very hard as building "throw away" characters generally is easy it will be very hard to find a acceptable balance.
But a WoD game where the same guy constantly return from the grave and there is no risk of permanent loss is way different from the original game.

if the character evolution is similar to eve whee you can skill for years to be able to do something and you can losse it all with a single death i doubt someone would risk that much

Very good idea. WoD is much more about social interaction, manipulation and power plays, and not third-gen munchkining (insert "What Moon?" joke here).
The players should be neonates, newborn, fledling little creeps just coming to terms with their newfound exsistance and slowly moving up the rank ladder of the Camarilla (methinks its going to be Camarilla in base game, then sabbath/neutrals, then other WoD things). Your own supernatural powers ought to be quite weak.
OTOH: how would you model the economy of WoD? We cant really set up blood farms above the sustainable level, or one would get whacked by the Sheriff.

All you have to do is watch the teaser vid they put out.....if your still not satisfied ,read a few eve chronicles.....ccp is one dark bunch.
That being said..... this game needs to break the mold and be a true adults game.

I love all the Camarilla fans running around here and how they all want to be them.
Assamite for life.
I do hope it will be one world server, imagine travelling to london, new york or the likes and hunt there, imagine that you have to ask permission from a prince in a city. Or that the sabbat is sieging a city to wrestle it out of control from the cammie lovers.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume it is going to be centered around nWOD, not oWOD. WW even said that bloodlines was the last game that would use the oWOD systems and lore. This is sad to me as I LOVE oWOD and don't really care for the lore in nWOD, but will definitely play the title.

it's going to be focused on the oWoD, check here and then look for the based on.
WW got bought by CCP and they been working on the WoD setting for a while now. So my hopes will be.
Full WoD setting, in due time with: Mages, Ghosts, hunters, KotE and Werewolves.
if KotE comes in, I am so will be making a Devil Tiger and will be showing the silly Kindred the power of the Kue-Jin ---

BAW!!! I was really looking forward to playing Garou, Gurahl, or (especially!) Corax. Huge disappointment for me.
I'm still interested and I'll certainly give it a try anyway. Maybe Gangrel will be enough if there's some shape shifting involved.

Is this just going to be a Vampire/Garou game? I can't see how anyone could translate Mage rules into a computer game. If it's just leeches and dogs I'm going to skip this one. If Mages are going to be implemented, how could it be anything but set spells and abilities which are completely in the face of Mage's reality bending 'true magick'.

for the time being, only Kindred, that is all we know, but I wouldn't be surprised if they add more to it later on ---

I've only played VTMB, but that had me hooked for a long time.
If WOD has that kinda of gritty atmosphere I'm definitely signing up for it. To see new mmo NOT based on WoW with actual adult elements would be refreshing to say the least.

No. It makes no sense to do the same game twice. CCP will utilize some lessons they learned from EVE and put it to good use, but they will try to cater to a totally different audience.
Yes and it makes a whole lot sense to make something entirely different with which they have zero experience and that will most likely then compete in one of the most cutthroat gaming markets currently out there.
I know I'm replying to a post on page one... but it made me cringe hard enough to have to do something...
