how do I make an mmorpg game?

Posted 27 February 2008 - 02:52 AM

I need help to start making a mmorpg browsergame.
I have no skills in programing and such, so do I need any software or how do I do this?

Usually software is required to make a game (or any other software) that you plan to use on a computer. Now if you are talking board games...

Basically, this is like asking which camera do you need to film a movie, there isn't one answer or one best. You'll just have to start learning how to program, & develop logic skills, & then put that into code.

Best of luck, you've got a lot of reading to do! But stick with it, it's worth it in the long run.

It depends on what language you're writing it in. If you don't know the absolute basics of programming, forget making a game in the foreseeable future. The amount of work that goes into one is incredible. Start with something small, start learning your language of choice, and then you can start building your way up to a full-fledged video game.

If You Want Your Game To Be Ran Online, You Should Look Into Java.... Search For Some Beginner Tutorials On Google. Also You'll Need The JDK.... You'll Figure This All Out Soon Enough, Just Read On It.

Oh And Also, Don't Plan On Making A MMORPG Any Time Soon....Work Hard And Maybe In A Couple Years Or So.

You really have to walk before you crawl in this aspect, it's hard to just decide you want to make an MMORPG with absolutley no knowledge of programming. I would suggest perhaps you take some introductory courses on the subject or check out the internet as far as Gamedev possibly for ideas and basic programming games. If you have no knowledge you could always try something like RPG maker XP which required no programming knowledge, however there is certainly a limit to what you can do, especially since much of the scripting is written within Ruby
