The guys over at MMORPG.com caught up with Joe Ybarra from Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment’s (or CME for short) Stargate Worlds last week at ION to talk about their upcoming MMO. If you didn’t catch it when it originally went up, we sat in on his “MMOs and Hollywood” panel during the conference. Joe has a lot of interesting things to say about not only the industry at large, but his companies’ game.

Being that Stargate Worlds is expected to pull in both the TV series audience as well as MMO players, the team at CME is designing their title with a high level of accessibility. The title’s story takes place in a modern — or even futuristic — setting, which means combat is similarly modern. We really love the idea that combat is being designed as a one-against-many affair in Stargate Worlds. Joe mentions that the minimum is one player-on-three NPCs and their median is about five or seven against one. That means you can expect battles to feel very action-packed, especially when you’re in a group with four of five other players!
