I've heard ppl wanted a Multiplayer EV/EVO in the past

So what do you think about all these MMOG's that are poping up?
Do you think there should be a MMOG EV/EVO?

I think moki put it best when he said most games of this type usually degenerate into glorified IRC channels.

Good idea : MMOGs

Bad idea : EV/EVO MMOGs

No one wants to (or is able to) make one of those. There's a current topic on EV Boards here that explains why.

Personally, I love online multiplayer games. The more people playing, the merrier. Although, you do get your horde of tards, but they're all the more fun to beat.

As for multiplayer EV/O... I'm sure everyone would like to see it, but the smart ones know that it'd be impossible to make due to all the reasons stated in above mentioned topic.

If by that you mean a networkable EV that allows players to pilot against each other in real time, than no.

You're nuts. j/k the more, teh worse.... lag gets so bad, you wanna kill your compute, or the other playiers, in hopes that they stop playing...... as for ev/evo online...It might be a good idea, or atleast a 1 on 1 or a something like that version. I bet my rapior can kick your kestral's a**.

None of them are as fun as MUDs. The main one I play is Discworld (based on what is probably favorite series). There are never fewer than 100 people online and often as many as 230, the max. The game has been going on for 10 years, and there are still new features and areas being added all the time. Best of all, it is totally free.

Diablo, Everquest, Ultima Online. How many of these do you suppose people will be playing in a decade?

Something like battle.net might actually bring EV up a bit more. Methinks that that would be the next step for EV. Of course, games should be limited to 8 players and the missions should be anti-another. Hardcore mode would be awesome seeing as some will get killed in an off battle and lose all stats. A ladder will pop up showing who has done best. Geez, im all excited now.
