More new IP coming from SOE // GamesIndustry.biz

During his speech Landau showed a clip of the company's new spy-themed MMO, stating, "We think this will take espionage entertainment to a new level."

But according to Smedley, "It's not really just an espionage game. It's a combination of espionage... Think 24 meets Alias meets Counterstrike."

so it will prolly be like eve spying except lame since soe prolly has no idea how to add real spy type gameplay and it will mostly consist of spy themed quests or something equally retarded.

I am always happy to hear about Smelly's new adventures in MMO land. I wait with baited breath for his next disastrous piece de resistance. I can already tell this one's gonna be a REAL stinker

Hey now, EQ2 turned into a decent game eventually, PS is fun for what it is (more investment please, Mr Smedley) and EQ was enjoyable periodically.

Don't blame SOE for the various Visions(tm) of wanna-be auteur game designers like Raph & Brad.

oooo burn.

If it can pull off that alias, 24, counterstrike in a blender shit, this could be godly. It'll be interesting to see what kind of raid content there is in that, or if it's going to be more geared towards small group encounters, even at the end game, which would make more sense for the genre. Anyone got some kind of video link? I'd like to at least take a look even at the rough shell of the game.

Espionage entertainment...

That's great. That's what I love about SoE, innovation!

New releases capitalizing on equally crowded, overdone genres.

Planetside, now with extra stealth!

redjunkopera · 02-08-2007, 01:01 PM

/zing!

If they manage to create Thief like missions this could turn out quite good. Imagine levels like Life of the Party but then doable with multiple people.

No idea what kind of classes they could implement on this. Should be something quite different from the standard MMO. No use in tank/healer/dps type thinking.
