Talk:List of massively multiplayer online games

message: Maybe add all Battlefield series? And World of tanks, MW2-3 and many other? Its all have a same gameplay! If Battlefield Heroes MMOFPS, so and counter-stike MMOFPS!
Sarcasm.
I think need to exclude Battlefield Heroes  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.202.36.245 (talk) 12:04, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Battlefield Heroes]] an MMO? 

message: Is this right? I looked in the article and it just comes across as your typical FPS shooter with standard online multiplay, not a Massively Multiplayer Online FPS. DarkSaber2k 10:54, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Americas Army]] an MMO? 

message: Games come and go -- and those of particular note (even if not significant enough to merit their own article) need to be listed somewhere, perhaps with a brief, one-line description. Obviously "Everquest" will have its own article years and years into the future, but even minor games that were innovative, particularly good, particularly bad, etc deserve at least some remembrance.
I propose the creation of either a Historical / Defunct games article (probably best) or alternatively, a section in the existing article -- This suggestion applies to MMOG, MMORPG, etc.
Perhaps MMOG (defunct), etc as as general disambiguity naming convention.

replies: text: I think this is a good idea.  We should start with a section in the existing article and then split it when the list starts to overwhelm the rest of the article (which probably wouldn't take long, considering how many games have been created over the years).  Notability is important, though, so I'd only suggest this for games which have had a solid fanbase (a minimum of, perhaps, 5,000 active users at a game's peak), otherwise the article would be way too long. --Josh1billion 08:25, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Historical/Defunct Games 

message: One area missing in the MMO List.
MMO SPORTS GAMES
There are a number of existing MMO sports games and several presently in Beta or Development.
I would supply a list of Suggestions but as I work in the industry I don't want to risk breaking the rules about COI.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Empire Of Sports (talk • contribs) 17:56, 16 July 2007

thread_title:  Missing Genre in the list. 

message: I noticed somebody put The Tempest Project in almost all the categories with an outside link. Could somebody please put it into one category - I haven't played it so I don't know.~~Lazyguythewerewolf . Rawr. 09:07, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's an external link, it's spam - this page is a list of MMOGs notable enough to have Wikipedia articles written about them. I've removed it entirely. --McGeddon 09:39, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Advert? 

message: Is someone making pages on them? oh, and i added DragonFable and MechQuest to the list of browser games. I am making a page for MechQuest.

thread_title:  Red Links? 

message: Is someone doing this? I would do it but I'm not if they are meant to be there

thread_title:  Removal of Red links? 

message: C'mon. Who is honestly editing these. Since when is quake live an MMOFPS. It's just a browser version of quake. This is no different than the old MMOFPS list before the articles were merged. Does anyone have a source that calls this game an MMOFPS even? 69.221.252.96 (talk) 20:25, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quake Live? 

message: I'm thinking it's time to establish the criteria for games to appear on this list. There are a few games that are simply multiplayer rather than massively multiplayer, and there are also games that support multiple players but are essentially single player in that you don't actually interact with any other players.  Ideas?  Wyatt Riot (talk) 08:19, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  List criteria 

message: I would like to add this to the list, but don't know where it goes. Building? Social? Please help. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 16:07, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Happy Farm]] 

message: I do think that Minecraft is notable, from personal reading on several gaming sites + the large numbers of reference on the Wikipedia page.
Should you add it?

replies: text: Question isn't that Minecraft is notable, as demonstrated by the existence of its article.  Question is whether it's an MMO, or, y'know, massively single-player. —chaos5023 (talk) 17:14, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  True... Is there any discussion on what does the "MMO" term entails? Chealar (talk) 15:06, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: There's an article at Massively multiplayer online game. To see if it's appropriate to label any particular game as an MMO, we should ideally turn to reliable sources. However, as a shorthand, it's sometimes acceptable to look at that game's article, because the article itself should be based on reliable sources and also give an indication of how to label the game.

thread_title:  Minecraft 

message: Count of players is public available in some games. 
It is useful to display this number in table.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.98.23.222 (talk) 17:18, 26 September 2016 (UTC)
