Can we not turn every thread in to a referendum on WoW? I mean WTF there isn't enough of this already? SWtoR looks interesting but we'll see. I'm pretty happy with what I'm playing now.
Global Agenda - Looks a lot different than any other mmo
All Points Bulletin - Just like Global Agenda very different than the norm
SWTOR - I'll wait a month or two after release of this game, I didn't like the first star wars mmo so I don't see how the second one will be much different.
The only one i'll pre-order will be STO, all the rest if I don't get into the open beta i'll probably wait for a while to play. If all these fail i'll just go back to playing WoW when the new expansion comes out and play a worgen.
YE, that proves EVERYTHING, you had a bad experience on a forum..EVERYONE CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNTS!!!.
Srsly..comon...
One of the most consistent complaints about WoW is it's community, ignore it if you like.
Like I said in my previous post though, it's bound to be that way simply because of WoW's size. Greater population = greater amount of asshats.
I'm not slamming the game, like I said it's good in it's own right. Hell I played it for 2 years. But the community was by far the worse MMO community I and many other have been involved in.
It's my opinion(one that is shared by many others), no need for the hyperbole in response.
More OT:
The Secret World looks promising but I doubt it will be released in 2010.
STO I was interested in but the cash shops have really lessened my interest as well as many of the developers decisions. Regardless, I will keep an eye on it.
And of course, SWTOR. It's Bioware. It's Star Wars. It's bound to be a good game. I have yet to play a Bioware game that I did not like that I can recall.

SWTOR is similar to the previous Knights of the Old Republic games, from the looks of it it looks really good and I'm sure it'll be much better then Galaxies, I've got a lot of faith with Bioware so I'm sure it'll be good.
That's an expansion you banana. Well I'm hoping Star Wars The Old Republic is coming out this year, I've been waiting for this game for ages, it'll be something new, cool and a lot more social then WoW which is old and antisocial.
Who cares? Cataclysm will bring all something new I need now, the only thing that I can immagine to be more cool of Wow so far. And have played virtually all that can be played out there for at least 1 month ... even now defunct one.
About STO after my experience with Cryptic and what they did to CO, I lost virtually all my interest.

Cataclysm is an expansion, not a MMO so technically it shouldn't be mentioned here... Blizzard upcoming MMO is another matter but it won't release for years yet, they have never been in a hurry with game releases.
Jumpgate Evolution, cant wait to take my Octavian fighter out into an open universe and blast 7 shades of **** outa anyone that happens to cross my path, as long as their not Octavian of course.
Space MMO with twitch combat, jebus what a breath of fresh air that will be.
Blade & Soul [tho i doubt it will make it in 2010]
SW:TOR is a game i find "like everything else", and because it probably wont give anything innovative it will soon die against more revolutionary mmos like b&s or tera.
Imo its time to do something with WoW supermancy and design games like ncsoft is doing now - blade and soul will rip the guts off WoW and rush blizz to reveal their new projects.
Happy new year one and all,here's my humble take on this topic.
Star Trek online, Hopeing to beta soon,been checking the leaked vids on Youtube fingers crossed as it look pretty good.
Star wars TOR, still not sure of how the game is gonna pan out i can not see it haveing the freedom of Galaxies pre-CU, so the SWGemu may be worth a look at as it's comeing on very nicely,not a new Mo but worth a look anyhow.
The Secret World, this could be a sleeper haveing recently trialed AOC again after a failed beta attempt,it seems Funcom maybe getting it's act together as i enjoyed free starter isle AOC which tbh was as a pleasant shock.
World of Darkness I have the greatest of respect for CCP played Eve for 3 years from blue CD edition,also been online for the first ever 10k barrier for simultaneous players was a thrill at the time,even though it was like watching a flipbook and of course the inevitable Sunday crashes,ahh good times.
Heroes of Telara, Heard good stuff not seen too much gamewise but they are promiseing a lot so will take it with a pinch of salt,Alganon also promised the earth and turned into a clone with an Eve Online learning system tacked on,but here's hopeing Telara can deliver the goodies.
Infinity Quest for Earth, Now this baby seems to be promiseing what Elite online could and maybe one day will procedural universe,seemless transition from space to full blown virtual open worlds,if this delivers this could be the biggest MO ever but as ever will see how it pans out as it's a small team and somewhat open sourced so could take a wee while.
Jumpgate Evolution,Stellar Dawn,Earthrise and Allods all could make an impact can only comment on Allods suffice to say best F2P ever,and will define F2P standards circa full release in 2010.
Currently dipping in and out of Fallen Earth,which is the most impressive launch and highest attention by the Devs to any Mo i've played,it's still in it's infancy but i'm sure she will march on well past 2010 and beyond.
I've come to grudgingly respect CCP for where they've taken "EVE", and I absolutely loved White Wolf's "Vampire Masquerade" games, so when the two of them banded together to create a world of darkness MMO, I was really happy. I hope it works out and that we get more info soon!
A more distant hope is perhaps the Warhammer 40K MMO. All we know is that it is under development, but everything else is veiled in mystery. I hope we get more information about it in 2010 at least.
I am ONLY looking forward to FFXIV because i trust the developer to be creative and they are already breaking normal trends by removing levels,so we will see,nothing is a guarantee.
There is also a few other games that are at least interesting,but the developers behind them are shotty at best,so maybe they will deliver a decent game,but i have doubts any of them will be COMPLETE games.
I will look at SWTOR/STO/TERA,and remotely look into GW2.I say remotely because GW is not that great of a game really,it carries the same playability and looks as any other F2P game[yes i played GW1],only you actually have to buy their product,the difference is you all play on even terms there is no ash shop to distort the game,at least i don't think GW2 will have any cash shop,but you never know.
DUST would normally be an interesting product to check out,but it is tied into EVE a super boring game i have zero interest in .If Dust was a totally independent product with enough content to be an independent product ,i would surely give it a look see.
I do not believe Copernicus project will be beta tested until at least 2011,but if by some miracle it came out end of 2010,it would warrant a must look.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

Ohhhh thanks Wizardry for the info about the Copernicus Project i was actually thinking of 38 studios but until now never realised.
Knew they had a code name for it but yeah they have backing a good team,and loads of cash so one to watch. I'll also throw in Fallout Mo/Project 13 into the mix but think i'm clutching at radiated straws with that one

Everything else just seems meh

FF 14 and ABP are the top two. Interested in Guild Wars 2 to see how it plays.
Happy New Year!
FFXIV...
RIP Orc Choppa
Forgot to mention "The Secret World".
Funcom MMO or not, it still looks really interesting.

I don't know.. anyone.. it's all the same crap with a different skin.
Faulty assumption.
