Question: The article on MMORPGs is at that page... shouldn't this article therefore be at MMOFPS instead of here? - Estel (talk) 16:57, Feb 6, 2005 (UTC)
Answer:I believe that the MMORPG article had the title because that was what they were most widely known as. MMOFPS is not an as widely used term. Greeves 01:18, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NEOCON IS MMOFPS ??
neocron is not justa rpg game with a fps view, like project entropia??
Should GunZ even be on this list? It's a third-person game not a first-person game and the article is about MMOFPSes. - DNewhall
Wth, there are a million different MM*** articles. Someone should do some serious merging.
Well the MMOFPS's I play nobody RP's in them.
Huxley and PlanetSide are MMOFPS, Face of Mankind and Neocron are MMORPG, so 4 of the 7 mentioned games are not even in this category(the other 3 I have not heard about, so I can't comment about them) and I hear about the term XORG for the first time. Also the company that "inventioned" the term, has no site or anything, if you google it's name it gives you only 1 result - this article, so the whole XORG "article" is more of a joke, than anything. It must not be merged, but DELETED.
Neocron is a nightmare. It's extremely picky about the system it's running on and the tech support is useless. It took me over 2 months to unsubscribe (during which they charged me). Don't go here.
Planetside is the only true SF MMOFPS I've found. Huxley looks OK, but the devs have already made a fatal mistake: "....and of course if players don't wish to engage in PvP battles, there is always a plentiful amount of NPC's to help their character level up..." That just SCREAMS MMORPG to me...
a new, MMOFPS is under developement... Versus: Conflict Defines Existence... www.versusthegame.com alpha version for q4 2006, retail q4 2007
WTF is this company trying to subvert MMOFPS.. Everyone knows what MMOFPS means this failed startup is trying to pirate the term and twist it to their own meanings. Why is this article meant to be merged with spam from some gay ass company?
The article on XORG should be deleted. Most of the playerbase in WWIIONLINE would (and probably planetside) would object violently to being catogorized into "Extreme" online roleplaying games. It's a marketing gimic not a genre. Perhaps a page on "Virtual Battlefields" could be added to replace it.
Uh wait, we want to invent a new term "virtual battlefield" (which really is a term used to mean something very different by the military) in an attempt to combat someone inventing another term "XORG"?
Fine, I was just thinking outloud. Created a page on virtural battlefields anyway. HAS xorg been deleted yet? Nhorning 11:28, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
