Online Game... not that it was a Role Playing game.Tanitha: Sure MMO means "massive multiplayer online" however its meaning is
lots of people playing the same game.
1 million people playing online chess isn't a MMO, because only two people play against each other at once.
Its 500,000 games of "2 people" so not MMO by definition.
Similarly with WoT at this stage, its not "massive" amounts of people playing the same game, Only 15v's15, so it IMO at the moment falls into a FPS game. It was also dropped as a MMO from a gaming website for that reason, I think it was mmorpg.com
However when that world domination map comes out, then there will be 100,000's of people playing THAT game, THAT world. That changes ownership, and can be built on. So when its finished, then yes it should fall into a MMO based on its descriptions of whats coming.
All just a IMO.. : )
