I decided to start a thread where people can post info about upcoming MMOs that they believe offers something that even non-fans of the genre would like. Here's a few that hopefully will be coming to the US soon.

C9: Continent of the Ninth: I heard that it will be coming to the US by either year's end or in 2010. Not too sure if it's true, but I really hope the rumors are true.

SUN: Soul of the Ultimate Nation : Well this one's definitely coming to the US. Should be before the end of the year, if nothing delays it. And it's supposed to be absolutely FREE!!!

T.E.R.A The Exiled Realm of Arborea:

At Hangame Invitational 2009, Bluehole Studios unveiled a gameplay trailer for their MMO currently in development. Tera highlights its non-targeting battle mode. In non-targeting battle mode, the player can directly attack monsters without having to select monsters, which is totally different from other MMORPGs out there on the market. This awesome feature will greatly improve the sense of reality and excitement of the game.

Finally, an MMO for me. Fast paced, nonstop action! YAY!

Dungeon Fighter Online: Finally, there's an MMORPG coming out that I can get excited for. While I still think WOW is a pretty good game, I never really got into it like a lot of you have. It just wasn't my type of game. Now Nexon, the guys who brought us MapleStory and Combat Arms, are localizing this 2D, action oriented, Korean MMO to us English speaking folk. And it looks......well just see for yourselves.

Oh, and a trailer and some of the Korean version's gameplay. So damn sweet!

Looks pretty sick. Might be a good idea to give it a shot as soon as it's released, when there's not much ppl playing. I've been playing MapleStory for about 2yrs now but it's gotten so crowded that I often can't find a good spot to train.

If GATT'ers are gonna try this out, I say we hit it a concerted effort, to get a real feel for the game...

Who's with me?

omg @ 2 years of maple story... that is serious self torture, you should seek help buddy.

This looks like a combo of dungeons and dragons and a square RPG
so not bad indeed.

But i fail to see how any of these games will really make a significant impact on people not already involved in the MMO genre. None of those games are bringing with them anything that says PLAY ME NOW, the only MMO that may bring that feature is Ole Republic, because it has a strong following from the Star Wars community.

really? you don't think that an MMO with fast paced, real-time, Devil May Cry style action would appeal to people who don't like the genre? i'm mean one the main reasons that alot of people don't get into this type of game is the fact that the whole "stand still, attack, stand still, fireball" style of gameplay just seems boring to them. everyone i know that has seen the gameplay for those titles basically said the same thing, "If more MMOs was so, I wudda be playin' dem long time". read some of the youtube comments for the vids. you'd see i'm not the only one who thinks this way.

rassmatic · « **Reply #8 on:** August 11, 2009, 07:21:45 PM »

well those games may not interest someone like yourself, but for me (any many others apparently), a change in gameplay style is exactly what the doctor ordered. i'm not saying any of these games would become successful but, at the very least IMO, they offer something in them that people who're usually put off by these games can look forward to. kick a$$ action. oh, and standing still and attacking is NOT limited to turn based games. almost all MMOs on the market use that same, tired formula. WOW included.

was a big fan of the d&d hack and slash type games.

Sengoku 1, 2 and 3 as well. Same formula. Awesome games.

Play those on mame every once in a while for the nostalgia but as for playing them as a MMO??? Not so sure.

Judging from the vid, does this even qualify as an mmo? Doesn't look like you're playing with more than 3 or 4 other people at once.

Hmm I like the 1st game it looks cool. Do you have full control over your character in that game?
