avinity8 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Basically the current maximum of only 4 players per map is what keeps Warframe from being a real 'M'MOG. Even 40-64+ players interacting isn't a MMO. So I see why some don't see it as a MMO, I agree. Once/if that ever changes, then WF will no doubt be a MMO.

avinity8 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 So you posted info from Wikipedia(anyone can edit it) for the bulk of your argument?! -_- ATM - Even amongst the Gaming Industry there's no real firm definition on what makes a game(like this one) a MMO or not.

Etsoree Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 he's talking about hubs and having dozens of players on the same map, silly. well, hundreds of players. Either way. When it has that, yes, it can be one. Now? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wahooo Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 This is still going on? Wow. Don't you guys have something better to do? Welcome to the internet? Arguing, and seemingly passionate about a particular side of that argument, about inconsequential semantics is what game forums were actually created for right?

Etsoree Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 I still don't get why people are stating the game is an MMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)delta_3802 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 When I saw the topic I was of the opinion that WF was an MMO because it was always online and how much you could interact with other players. However, I have seen very good arguments for WF just being an online coop shoter, and I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WetAedeagus Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 MMO? Don't be silly. It's obviously a realistic farming simulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BondedWound Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 What about minecraft? You wanna call that an MMO now too? :P Also the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer had community events. That was already mentioned above though Well, considering Minecraft can have servers up to 3000 people... yeah, I'd say it qualifies as one based on what's been said.

Quovander Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Here's a more official claim:"Warframe is a cooperative free-to-play online action game set in an evolving sci-fi world. Join your friends in player-vs-enemy raids across the solar system and master the power of the Warframes. Stand alone or fight together against enemies that threaten your world." - Digital Extremes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Redwire Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) MMO? Don't be silly. It's obviously a realistic farming simulator. Realistic? I've had better luck trying to get a Rhino Prime chassis by sticking lima beans in concrete and pouring sulfuric acid on them than I have farming T3 survivals. Even nature can't compete with Warframes RNG. Edited March 20, 2014 by DJ_Redwire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
