Firefall MMOFPS [2011]

MMOFPS = destined to fail the moment aimbots are available that can't be detected.

Reminds me of Borderlands, could be interesting but meh, i don't do pay per month MMOs.

Edit: Scratch that, just saw its free to play so maybe it could be worth a look :p

The cinematic trailer was great. I wish more movies looked like this. Anyway, I seen a video of this game being demo'd a few months ago and it does indeed look very good.
 
I hope this is a proper MMOFPS and not just an standard FPS labled as an MMO. Planetside was an MMOFPS, Huxley (which is 32 v 32 battles) is not an MMO.

I havn't read too much into firefall, but as long as it has PvP (and proper PvP, like planetside, not tiny little arenas), areas that can be won/lost, and a decent level/class system then I will be happy. If it is just a pure PvE game with only dueling/arenas for PvP then I simply won't bother.
 
Looks to be the best combination of FPS and MMO I have seen as yet. The graphics are a little nnoying with the cartoony black outline, but I can forgive it that if the game plays well.

Exactly my thoughts.
 
Just watched the video for this game, I think this looks amazing, I can't really be bothered trying a fantasy mmo anymore after I quite wow years ago, everyone is raving about new mmo's like rift etc but I really cannot be bothered with that genre anymore and this looks good to me, the graphics and engine I like, and I liked how you can do first person and 3rd person views to do different attacks.

I just hope they really make this into a good game, not sure what I want from the game, but hopefully it's filled with good content that keeps us interested.

Maybe the game will be filled with challenges? Could be cool because I like the feel I get when playing Left4Dead so maybe this game will have stuff like that, like many 20 of us go into an area as a group and get jumped on by hundreds of monsters and we got to hold em off? stuff like that. Would be good if they have bosses...not sure if raids are possible, not sure how they'd do it? Will all characters just have guns? or will some have spells or be able to heal etc?
 
They will have to be very shrewd with the release date of this so it doesn't get shadowed by GW2, Starwars and other big titles.
I've been looking forward to it for a while, i really hope they can pull it off.

Can't really work this game out... it definitely doesn't look like a MMO, I know what the term means, but what an "MMO" is generally defined as is something totally different. This looks more like a co-op game (Borderlands) with some team vs team stuff (Team Fortress 2). Still be getting it as it looks fun, but when I heard about the "MMOFPS" part last year I was imaging an actual MMOFPS, not this.
 
the older video looked like an mmo, developers like to call games mmo's even if they clearly arent though li think the trend started with guild wars
 
They seem to have toned down the cell shading a bit, looks a lot better than it did. The latest video is just a battleground from the looks of it.
