Ubisoft introduces the world to the next installment of their Tom Clancy label of games with the persistent, open-world, online RPG shooter, The Division.
The author is aware of that and that EA also owns BioWare as well as the Battlefield franchise. =) I see the error and it has been corrected. Thanks for pointing it out and sorry for any confusion.
Oh I don't see anything killing or ending WoW. That's not what I was asking but that gets tossed around so much that I can understand the confusion. What I was asking should be interpreted more as if it could challenge WoW in terms of subscription numbers.
Neither of these games will end the other and no one has managed to topple WoW from it's subscription mountain as of yet.
Good response though and I think Kotick is referring to Lucas's cut from the license deal, but I doubt he knows the numbers behind that deal.
Thanks for the thoughts Metal and the comparison to the NGE was more of an observation in similar update types. =) I'll be the first to say I have no idea how this will go over but the community forum posts I have read are mixed, which is surprising in a lot of ways. You don't often see support for a character wipe.

HA! It is indeed. Fixed! Welcome back Mega.
That seems to be the speculation of some. But who knows, they may have something else up their sleeve all together.
