BrainSplatter Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) I was just checking IGN's list of MMO nominations for this year: Best Persistent World/MMO Game Black Prophecy DC Universe Online Dragon Nest Rift World of Tanks No SWTOR?? Yes, I know the game's not released yet but this is a nomination not a review or an award. Edited December 14, 2011 by BrainSplatter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill_Kayt Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I was just checking IGN's list of MMO nominations for this year: Best Persistent World/MMO Game Black Prophecy DC Universe Online Dragon Nest Rift World of Tanks No SWTOR?? Yes, I know the game's not released yet but this is a nomination not a review or an award. It is released 11 days before 2012. It is not viable for a 2011 anything. It is a 2012 game.

Squeebee Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Note the word Persistant. At least WoW isn't on the list, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarthorn Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Only based on released games, looks like WoW really did lose popularity if it didn't make the shortlist Looks like Rift will be winning the IGN award by a convincing streak, rest of those games in the shortlist are terrible.

Hellbrass Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Considering that itll only be out for 11 days of 2011, i'd say it doesnt really merit a nomination for that particular award. Now best MMO of 2012, that it should get a nomination for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derity Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 It's based on games from Jan 1st - December 31st, but ofcourse SWTOR hasn't released yet so they can't exactly put it in the list. WoW isn't in the list because it wasn't released this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenosyde Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Released too late. this.. even if this were the worst launch ever (Which it isnt, and yes im still not in either) then this would still be better then Rift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKKETYL Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Haha, they shouldn't even have this catagory this year. None of the those are worthy. Rift I can see but the rest are kind of lame. I've played them all. Edited December 14, 2011 by BLACKKETYL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jest Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 i stoped at DC Universe Online.... really??? game of the year??? This is the same game that hasn't been out that long and already had to switch to F2P right??? It's switch to F2P is bringing in tons of money. It's not a bad game by any means. It suffered from the Beta Community finding Combat Glitches and never reporting them so they could abuse them upon launch. And that's exactly what happened.

Juumanistra Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 World of Tanks is on that list for Game of the Year? World. Of. Tanks. The game based on driving around various interwar and WW2 American, German, and Soviet tanks for fun and profit? That World of Tanks? The same World of Tanks with a matchmaker so broken that, if WoW used the same, it'd routinely feature battlegrounds in which 2200+ rated PvP folks beat up on dungeon-geared L70s? That World of Tanks? Pills. I need pills. Only pills can make the utter despondency from realizing someone actually thinks World of Tanks is one of the best games of 2011 go away...

Rhinoplat Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 It is released 11 days before 2012. It is not viable for a 2011 anything. It is a 2012 game. It won't be a 2012 GOTY either. It will be a successful investment for BioWare, but not GOTY quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
