FPS MMORPG's = Next Big Thing?

in The Pub at MMORPG.COM

I have noticed alot of FPS MMORPGs comeing out.  Almost every one is asking for a FPS/WASD/Click To hit mmorpg.  is every one getting tired of the old third person auto attack style MMORPGS?  I feel in the next few years Auto attack in new MMORPGS will be dead,  And WASD/FPS is takeing over the MMORPG worlds.

    Nah man...MMOFPS will not replace MMORPG's for one reason...not everyone can handle the 3d graphics...also MMOFPS require more hardware power than most popular MMORPG titles. Dominant games are the one's that can handle and provide for the mainstream demand. MMOFPS are still a niche market for hardcore gamers.

    Considering the populations of both WWII Online and PlanetSide, I'd say no...Of course both are dated and neither truly pulled off what many people wish that they would, but if MMOFPS's were the next big thing then both of those games should have 100x the population they have now...

    Now if some game could take PlanetSide and add in a few more things here and there and actually market it, then I could see it being a major player, but none of the upcoming MMOFPS's look like they will...However, any MMOFPS that comes out in the next few years will still have quite a good following as there are many people out there who love the genre...I'd say well over half of the people who ever had a PlanetSide subscription will at least try Huxley, even though it's not what they're really looking for, and what they're looking for is a PlanetSide 2...

    when The chronicles of Spellborn goes live it will have the click to attack/aim and wasd with bunny hopping.

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

    Planetside did not pioneer the MMOFPS genre as 10six preceded it by a few years.  Granted, the FPS aspect of 10six is not as extensive due to the fact most combat took place with rovers (armed vehicles) and the strong RTS element incorporated into the game as well.  Still, I never see the game mentioned whenever this topic arises, which is a shame. 



    As to the potential popularity of MMOPFS games, I doubt even a polished, well marketed release would make much of an impact as PvP is a niche that attracts only a certain type of niche player.

    like said earlier, its all a different type of game, like why would a turn based strategy game pull more people toward it then an RTS? your looking at pretty much the same situation.
