S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online?

PC News | MMOG a strong possibility.

A community Q&A with GSC Game World, developers of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and the forthcoming prequel S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Skies, has revealed some interesting information about the future of the sci-fi franchise.

In answer to the question, 'Will there be S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Online?', they replied, 'We do not quite understand what you mean by "online". If it is the cooperative mode, then no, there will be none. Even at the time of development of the first part of the game we said that a cooperative mode is impossible, since Life Simulation would be different at each computer. Synchronizing it would be practically not doable.'

The most intriguing part of their answer came in the final sentence: 'If you mean an MMOG, then we are seriously considering it'.

This is the first indication of the possibility of a massively multiplayer S.T.A.L.K.E.R. title we have received.

Ehh. Huh? So does that mean a completely new game specifically for MMOG purposes? Hmm...
