Not sure,though i wouldn't count on it considering they are striving for the graphics of LU,and not taking the time that netdevil did with LU. Add that on top of the "tightly focused gameplay" statement,i don't see it being open world.

I was just wondering, I don't play a whole ton of games but wouldn't it be confusing to not have an open world, especially if it was muliplayer? You would have to have some kind of open world any way, or at least that is how LEGO has always done it in the past.

Open world meaning it has A LOT of space in all direction,like minecraft. But games like LU you had certain areas you traveled to,it wasn't open in all directions.

OHHH! I thought open world meant that there are no levels, just free roam with missions, like in LU, that was what I was referring to in my last comment! Thanks for explaining that!

Actually, Open World does mean one big world. IDK the name of a game what the heck lots of worlds. But hopefully, they won't put in too many pre-defined paths for the player to walk on like in Avant Gardens in LU. Did you notice there was a different texture where they wanted you to walk? It wasn't too fun that way...

If the MMOG will be as cool as LEGO city Undercover looks, then it is going to be a good game! and i can't wait!

and if it is. then it will be Open world

by unitx10 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 1:23 pm

The last report said that it will be collection based, do you think that means it will have a story behind it?

by steelersrule12 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 1:26 pm

Well i hope that it has a very unique missions system,but i also want them to make it so that people can hangout and do things together in teams and in minigames,it seemed likein LU the only time people came together was to buy and sell rares.

Edit: Yes i am sure they will have a storyline,that would be the case because they said "tightly focused gamesplay".

by unitx10 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 1:54 pm

What will we be tightly focused on as game player, though? And if we are so focused we have a low chance of just hanging out except for business reasons.

by steelersrule12 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 2:05 pm

Well it all depends on how well they do the teams and if they have a good chat system.

Yes i so agree. they need an In-game "Team/Group thing." plus REASONS to be around an just Chat, and have fun. Lots of them and lots of ways, Also you should have Clubhouses for the teams that are "Approved"

yes, but remember, LEGO Minifigures MMOG is not LEGO City Undercover. TT Games is making LEGO City Undercover.

by unitx10 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 7:11 pm

Why isn't TT games making the LEGO MMOG?

by Nenen Thu 08 Nov 2012, 7:22 pm

Well because LEGO wanted the MMOG to be made by somebody who knew how to make them.

by steelersrule12 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 7:23 pm

Yeah funcom is very good at making mmo's.

by Nenen Thu 08 Nov 2012, 7:25 pm

But still, If its even as cool as Undercover i want to play!

by unitx10 Thu 08 Nov 2012, 8:04 pm

What was wrong with netdevil? they made LU and did a good job.

by Nenen Thu 08 Nov 2012, 11:06 pm

But they had a lot less Exp, PLUS some things could have been a lot better! and etc. Many improvements would have been there If they had more EXP.

Fun-Com has that, and LEGO THIS TIME is going to try for a Bigger & Better game.
And funcom may make that possible!

by BlueKnightSam Thu 08 Nov 2012, 11:10 pm

Agreed. One thing that could have been improved on is the pricing of the game.

by steelersrule12 Fri 09 Nov 2012, 7:56 am

Which is why this game will be F2P.

by unitx10 Fri 09 Nov 2012, 10:11 am

Are you guessing on that or are you getting this info somewhere?

by Nenen Fri 09 Nov 2012, 2:03 pm

Which one? the Free-to-play, or About why they chose Fun-Com? or something else?

by unitx10 Fri 09 Nov 2012, 6:25 pm

The F2P, sorry about the confusion.

by Nenen Fri 09 Nov 2012, 7:36 pm

Free-to-play is Confirmed! yes there will be F2P! Fun-Com says so!

YAHOO!!! Wait, how are they going to make money from a F2P game that costs a boat load to make and nobody paying for it?
