Tim Cain working on new MMO for NCSoft with his Carbine Studios

Tim Cain, is working on a new game for NCSoft at his company, Carbine Studios -- which is comprised of a number of ex-WoW dev's for Blizzard and ex-Fallout dev's.

Here's the news -- click me!

Quote
NCsoft's Carbine Studios announced today that Fallout and Fallout 2 producer and designer Tim Cain has been named design director for the company's unannounced project. Carbine has pretty much been off the radar since last year when the studio was first announced and Tim Cain had the title of programmer director.

We're not that well versed in nit-picky game designer titles, so we actually asked Tim Cain what his new title means. Cain writes us: "As the programming director, I was responsible for trying to realize the ideas of the design director. I would take his requests for features and system specifications and coordinate my team of programmers to create those features and systems. If game development was a train, I was shoveling the coal into the engine to keep it chugging along. Now as the design director, I am the conductor of the train. I get to decide where we go and where we stop."

Now we patiently wait on a name for this secret project that's apparently been in development since the studio's inception in 2005.

Hell, I didn't know he's been working on something for that long...interesting.
I wonder what they're up to.

Hell, I didn't even know they made an announcement of a studio and working on an unannounced project, which was actually announced last year.
