40 mins of yadda yadda and fuck all to show of the game itself save a prerendered city scene. Long way to go indeed.

CCP Games has cancelled the development of MMO World Of Darkness and as a result is cutting 56 jobs at its Atlanta studio.

Wonder what they'll do with all the assets and such they've made already. Would be a shame to just let it go to waste.

Thread bumped after 2 years of inactivity with news of it being canned.

Well, after them fucking around with something for 8 years without actual results kind of makes this news no news, frankly.

Sad, but not surprising. An EVE-esque sandbox free-for-all in WoD would have been ridiculous amount of awesomeness, but I bet WW got fed up with not showing results after such a long time.

It's pretty obvious that CCP was half-assing the whole thing.

not really a surprise.
they dropped the development during the eve player riot which found out the eve in development cycle will not get any work done for the next 8 months, and devs were focused on wod, and unsubbed enmasse. + other varios forms of protest. eve players are very creative.
so they put wod on hold, and move their asses to eve development, and their fps shooter on consoles.
even the slighty mention of wod on eve forums probably even now, would lead to rage.

Agreed, this was a long time coming. With them having laboured for this long with nothing to show for it, it'd be more surprising if they actually went ahead with the game.


Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I feel indifferent honestly. I was interested by the setting and the tech CCP were willing to put into their games. That was it. I would much prefer VtMB like game but with the graphical tech CCP have showcased over the years.

CCP are idiots anyway. Their greatest achievement is EVE and all their other products have been massive failures. Dust, what kind of imbecile thought that game which in some ways influences eve online belonged as a PS3 exclusive?!

Aye, Dust was a dumb move. Tho I feel anyone going: 'I'm going to make an FPS on the console' quite retarded, double so if it's coming from a 'PC developer'.

Ah well, they'll keep on earning large piles of money from dimwits Laughing

Well I'm certainly lamenting the cancellation, "MMO" or not, it was basically more Vampire the Masquerade and the loss of that should impact anyone that loves RPGs Sad

" it was basically more Vampire the Masquerade". How do you know that though?

Don't be disappointed for a game that didn't make it, I wish more games could be found out and cancelled. At least this time someone pulled the plug.

Um, what? How can you NOT know that? You know what World of Darkness is, don't you? Vampires, Werewolves and Wraiths. That's WoD. WoD *began* with Vampire the Masquerade and you can clearly see how related it is in the leaked screenshots above.

I didn't say it would be Redemption or Bloodlines, I said it would be "more Vampire the Masquerade" - although if I was to be facetious, it's not really "Masquerade" any more, but "Requiem" Wink Speaking of MMO/SP/WoD.. I haven't even gotten around to trying The Secret World yet, a friend loaned me his unused account ages ago and I simply haven't had the time or energy to devote to it.

damn those screens looked mighty interesting, real shame if you ask me.

Somehow to me it somehow feels like the beginning of the end. CCP made a big loss this quarter iirc, Dust isnt picking up(Like we didnt all tell them that) and I dont see valkary becoming this IP carrying VR experience they make it out to be.

WoD Was their stepping stone to mainstream(or at least, the not eve crowd), Cancelling this after so many years of work on it they must either be in deep financial woes or what they have really really sucks.

Eve FanFest starts tommorow, not gonna bother watching this year the schedule didnt seem very interesting. Nothing WoD related on the schedule as far as I remember either, but still hope they are going to be somewhat forthcoming on this subject there.

It's a damn shame. The only MMO I would've been remotely interested in playing for longer... Sad

I guess it was to be expected, but it's still a damn shame.

Wow. I thought that it was due to bad management but not nearly this bad.
