Topic: Turn-based Perpetuum

This game, long before released was going to be turn-based.

Why the change in direction?

Could it work now as an MMO turn based strategy game?

I don't know, just looking at different options.

Is there such a thing as a turn-based MMO? Isn't that a bit contradictory?

Yeah I think so, if the turns lasted a specific amount of time

It is a thing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn-based_MMORPG

Might not be that popular some give a 30sec limit per turn, enough time to not need high end servers for a high population.

I just don't see it working as turn based.

Re: Turn-based Perpetuum

it would probably work with about the same action level if released as browser MMO similar to oGame wink
