Earlier this week, Blizzard launched its latest World of Warcraft expansion, Mists of Pandaria. While many have criticized the company's inclusion of the cuddly Pandaren, others have shrugged it off as they continue to wait for the company's next generation of MMO, project Titan.
We haven't heard much about the project lately, but according to Blizzard vice president of game design, Rob Pardo, the project is still active as ever. In a recent interview with Curse, Pardo revealed the development team for the elusive Titan project now has over 100 team members.
“We are definitely in the middle of development at this point,” Pardo explained. “The team is over 100 people now.”
As exciting as "middle of development" sounds, this only makes us more anxious to hear details about the mysterious title. Unfortunately, Pardo wouldn't spill the beans, only stating that the development team initially started out small in teams of two or three and has since grown much larger over the course of four years.

Chairman Ray Hopefully Blizzard can dig up some really innovative ideas to put into the MMO genre like how WoW started off.Reply -
tomfreak I honestly think they should have just improve the WoW, fix any complains from players, so it wont lose anymore subscribers.Reply -
bllue With how D3 ended up, I have low expectations for this. They're probably gonna develop Titan in a way that will allow them to milk as much as possibleReply -
DroKing I have a hunch that even with massive amount of developers, It's gonna still suck thanks to Bobby Kotick.Reply -
cats_Paw Not really interested.Reply
Wow:didnt like, preffered guild wars.
SC2: Boring after 4 months
D3: didnt even buy.
So at this point, titan?.... Whatever. -

tomfreak pliskin1IMO that is one of the problems with WoW, they fixed soo many complaints that now it's easy mode.it is because they listened the kids who complained rather than the real gamer or hire a real gamer who find out a reason why people quit. Understanding common human behavior is one of the important thing to be success, they let their corporate greed cloud their judgement.Reply
Developer like Valve manage to do this pretty well with their steam. Valve know what their customer actually want. Unfortunately the people in Blizzard do not really know what their own customer want.

And with digg up you mean, of course, steal from what's already been done by others before you and polish it into something so easy and safe a cow could play it, whilst tacking on the blandest lore there ever was. Yay Blizzard!
Sorry. I liked the crack-like mechanics for a while, but it all feels so bland...
