Dude, you do realize that the lobby shooter is only for the alpha/beta testing? It's gonna be in the end a lot more open world than a CoD -style shooter, with various guild flagships and whatnots that people are throwing around for ideas...?
Thats, again, kinda the point im trying to make. Im comparing this game to Planetside 2. It will probably be large open continents, as that is what they said it would be (later) not now in alpha. And Planetside 2 has multiple servers still. Giving one the Tag "RP" would at least attract people with a likeminded mindset to that server. And for those that dont care, or dont even like it, they would prob go to the other one. Matchmaking? Perhaps currently? But in the future, if its anything like planetside, there wont be any matchmaking.... Its supposed to be an MMO. Not smaller games like ... Dirty Bomb (sorry its the only shooter i play) or like CoD and so forth. Planetside has no matchmaking. You get in, either grab a vehicle and drive/fly to the fighting. Or drop in straight in to fight. There is no real matchmaking. Maybe that is a lack of information on my part though. Let me know if it is.
It works, some people role play even in Planetside 2 or even look at Eve online that game is on one server mixed with Role players and the biggest griefers in the world. No matter what type of game is you always going to have roleplay communities. Just because one person isnt role playing doesnt mean its no existent or impossible to do. You sound like you have a lot of sour grapes.
Are you seriously expecting Orks not to bring the WAAAGH!? Who do think we are? The COD fanbase? Where the majority of chat is filled with calling out your mother and questioning your sexuality because you scored a clean kill
Well if you call pretending you're military or whatever on teamspeak then sure yeah that's roleplay. If you actually try to organize anything it'll get wrecked pretty damn fast. I know because I wreck those things pretty damn fast every time they pop up.
