Zomg! How u find this?

Bungie's next game is really going to be an MMO, or did they mean that as a joke or something? The wording of Bungie Weekly Updates always confuse me. Too much analogies and metaphors and stuff. :p

What's a current MMO game? I'm new to this whole "MMO" thing...

Sangheili Major: "Brute ships. Staggered line! Shipmaster, they outnumber us, three-to-one!"

Rtas 'Vadum: "Then it is an even fight. All Cruisers, fire at will! Burn their mongrel hides!"

There are several...things like Maplestory, Mabinogi, Flyff, Trickster, the list goes on. However, those are based more around the "anime" theme, I doubt this one that Bungie is currently making is around that theme...well, it could be, but I don't know.

It says that during David's GDC presentation, he made a joke riffing off of the recent rumors, but unfortunately, nobody knew he was joking. Bungie's new IP is not an MMO.

Something like World of Warcraft, though WoW is a MMORPG, something that's just an MMO would be something that would have lots of people basically playing the games campaign at once.

I admit I tend to read several bits (especially the intro) over again, or find myself not actually taking anything in.

Well, it could still be a MMO, but they did clarify that he wasn't confirming anything, and it was just a misinterpretation.

:P

Bungie is mysterious. They won't reveal anything by accident, unless they do it on purpose. Bungie is really keeping their mouths shut on their new game, or they're just too busy working on it.

Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

You guys might want to re-read the first part of the update. Opogjijijp nailed it... we have no idea what kind of game it will be at this point.

All I know is that it's gonna be an FPS game with (good) multiplayer.

What makes you think that? Sure they've been focused on FPS recently, as has the whole industry, but Bungie previously made a name for themselves with a Real Time Tactical series, and they've also done an action/adventure style game.

I've read somewhere that they're still focusing on the FPS genre. Although, I don't remember where I read it from.

Did anyone else see the removed stuff from reach. Like boarding hunters, space battles and global battles... Well, wouldm't global battle be epic with a massive multiplayer...

That's always annoyed me. It's like trying to figure out Inception every Friday. I still enjoy it, though. But it's too much effort for me to grab a hold of what it is the update is trying to say, sometimes.

MMO can also be a shooter. MMO just stands for massive multiplayer online. It could be something like MAG if you're ever heard of it. What you are thinking is probably MMORPG. They're usually awful so I doupt Bungie would make one of them.
