澄清一下关于上古卷轴新作是否为MMOgame的传言

最近关于上古卷轴新作是否是网络游戏的传言很多，甚至很多人言之凿凿的用3年前的消息来发帖子。
在此用官方网站的官方消息澄清一下：
please realize that adding multiplayer at this time is simply not feasible. Oblivion has been streamlined for single-player and adding multiplayer would require re-writing large portions of the engine. The devs would much rather spend their time and energy expanding on what they already have, a great single-player RPG, rather than re-doing what they’ve already finished.

So please, no requests to have multiplayer added with an expansion. Or at least if you’re going to discuss this realize that it is not an option.

Finally, multiplayer code requires a ton of effort. For example, it took two people several months to add multiplayer to Soldier of Fortune 2, a game made with an engine specifically designed for multiplayer (Quake 3). Many people seem to feel that a developer can purchase some network code and slap it on with a week’s worth of work, but this just isn’t the case.


意思很简单：上古卷轴是一个单机游戏，不要说改变成MMO游戏，就是加入一些网络功能都会导致重新编写引擎，是不大可能的一件事情。
所以官方用了一句很确定的话：加入网络成分，这根本没有可能！

所以各位同学，先不要管今年能否发布上古5的消息，请先记住：上古5也好、上古6也罢，都是一个传统的单人游戏，Z社在干什么和B社无关。
