Fallout Online?

[BabyHeadCrab]

I guess it would be reasonable to say this game might actually surface. I am not a huge fallout fan but I like to be the first to post things. Thought I would give all you Fallout fans a head's up

Forget it, it will never happen, they're broke as hell. Look at what happened to Warhammer Online, they had the cash but decided the costs were too high in the end, you really expect a company that has had a net loss of over eight million to develop a MMORPG?

hmmm it would be too difficult with the fighting based on turns.

God. Why can't people stop cranking out MORPGs? As long as you have to pay for them, I won't touch them with a ten foot pole.

Me too... I hate paying for a game and then have to keep paying to use it.

 

[Gunner]

Paying monthly isn't as bad as you imagine, depends on your income I guess.

It'll never happen.

But aside from that, it is a truely horrible idea. In order to transfer it to the MMORPG stage they'd have to strip everything that made Fallout Fallout.

Exactly.

Besides, the MMORPG market is saturated. Remember how Microsoft pulled out recently? And Warhammer online? MMOGs cost millions to dev, and with so many of them around it's hard to get enough customers. Not like Iply has the money, they don't even have an office.

little bit of an update from gamespot, in the form of an article. Apparently the game could make or break Interplay.
