I updated the gameplay section in preperation for a FA nomination in the future. Hopefully this is better organized and easier to understand. I tried to include as many things as possible with dense paragraphs while still following the WP:VideoGames content guidelines on what is acceptable. A lot of the ideas came from this version of the Final Fantasy XI article which, as far as I can tell, is the only featured article about an MMO. Sebquantic ( talk) 18:31, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
Re: 'mechanics are "very complex"', section title is a quote from a player on the subject. Hope to find something like that in a review, but do not expect to. Anarchangel ( talk) 09:54, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
"Anarchy Online was the first large MMOG in the western market to offer indefinite free play with restricted content" This is in no way true, runescape has been doing it for many many more years, and is a western market large MMOG, I will remove this sentence from the article :)

And
Tibia (video game) has been doing that for many (well, 4 to be exact) years longer than runescape :p

-- Actually, this is in fact true if "3-D" is added to the "first large MMOG". Runescape was released earlier the same year as Anarchy Online (not "many, many more years"), but it was barely more than a graphical MUD being beta tweaked by its developers until 2004. Tibia, unless I'm mistaken, is still a 2-D MUD. {You can find this information on their respective wikipedia pages.] I wouldn't put either of them in the same category with Anarchy Online as an MMORPG, they're far closer to browser-based games than persistent worlds.

It looks like the new engine will mostly likely come out this year. If anybody is reading this, here's a list of things (off the top of my head) that need to be changed when it is released:
Any comments or other ideas?

Rewrote / restructured much of the article to improve writing style, clarity, redundancy and objectivity.
Not sure how to get the "too long intro" warning at the top gone, but I fixed the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teckman1 ( talk • contribs) 04:58, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

I tagged the article with {{Update}} since it lacks information about the new RK2019 server, which brought back many players and attracted new ones. I don't have enough spare time to look for sources and update it myself ( or even play at RK2019, for that matter =( ), so I hope someone will come along and fix that.
