Thumbs up MMORPG game devlopment

Hi,

I have been for the last 10 years dreaming of creating an mmorpg game, but i need help.

The plan is to create a 2d game, make sure the servers all work correctly, then deploy the game, make sure that's ok, then get people subscribing. easy in principle, hard in truth!

My thoughts are to have a GUI client similar to WOW/Eve-online that sends encrypted data to the server, the server then sends back vital run data to the client, the game then loads.

I am looking for volunteers or people willing to help from concept to deployment.

I have the game planned out, all i need are the programmers, graphics designers etc etc.

I myself have done a little vb.net as well as a lot of web work. I also know a lot about computers and there hardware.

Well thanks for looking, and do please contact me if you are interested

A bit of advice, don't pick an an MMO as a first project. Start with something small, like a 2d platformer. Then do an RPG. Then convert that RPG into an ORPG. if you get some support, maybe one day it will become an MMORPG.

Thats the trouble with everyone that wants to do game its always MMORPG. Do they even know that the task is near to impossible to create if its only one person. Like I respect it but everyone wants to create a MMORPG. I admit I did til I played one then I realized the task and didn't bother. Cause the resources and people to develop one is harder than you think. Even a gaming company. Its takes years to make and still has bugs up the butt.

MMO's are the shiznit atm, their popularity will die down eventually. FPS were on top for a while. I expect the next big hit will be some kind of MMO/RTS mix. Live action gameplay, with classic MMO levleing.

Yes, except a little more permanent that that. Instead of an RTS with an RPG twist, it would be an MMO with a RTS twist.

Gunz: The Duel had the right idea, but, well, their game sucks......

There is this thing up top that says when the last post was. You're a few months late. The thread is dead. The project is too (because there's nobody that's going to make an mmorpg just like that).
