Talk:Massively multiplayer online game

message: Currently the only source to support the "MMOs are about the same world" claim is Techopedia (which is at the very best is a tertiary source, and even it being WP:RS is arguable). Moreover, Techopedia does not really require the action to happen within one single world instance (the wording in Techopedia definition does allow for different interpretations, and "usually" is a very weak modifier to make bold statements based on it - making it a pretty bad case of WP:OR here). Overall - answer to the question of "whether games such as DOTA or CS qualify as MMOs" desperately needs MUCH better justification. Ipsign (talk) 06:14, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't think "simultaneously in the same instance" is meant to state "one single instance". An MMO can have many instances, each supporting large numbers of players. -- ferret (talk) 15:31, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the definition needs to be looked into, as you have sources (like Extra Credits on YouTube) that call Warframe an MMO (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERepKk7dZSc&feature=youtu.be&t=117 ), despite Warframe not being recognized by Wikipedia as an MMONahoward (talk) 20:52, 16 February 2019 (UTC)

message: Currently the article names "the multiplayer flight combat simulation game Air Warrior by Kesmai" as the first graphical MMO in 1986.  But Air Warrior was published in 1988.  Meanwhile, Lucasfilm's Habitat was published in first half of 1986.  Either Air Warrior is not the first graphical MMO, or the dates on it's own wikipedia article (and MobyGames) are wrong. -- Mozai (talk) 21:55, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The 1986 may be wrong, but Air Warrior would still be considered first for publication. Habitat was in beta in 86-88, and not officially released till 89. -- ferret (talk) 23:05, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
