I'm not sure. For a while I've been hearing that The Hand of Odd was going to be Online-inabled, sort of like all thoes games by BLIZZARD. But then I think they scrapped the idea.

But I have this wierd feeling that they just said that to keep our minds off it, then surprise us with it when it comes out. But then don't yell at me if I'm wrong, which I probably will be.

Im extreemly sure that the next game will not have any online capabilites, along with the rest of the Quintology. The Quintology was ment to be a story that flows the way it flows, if there were online play it would just change the course of the story (in a way). The Habitales and Fearitales (names and ideas could have been scrapped so let us not go overboard) games such as Hand Of Odd were ment to be online capable in a way that you download new buildings or missions, maps, etc onto your game to keep it fresh. Also Hand of Odd was not part of the Quintology (it was actually kinda like Age of Empires) which would let OWI give HOO online abilitys...

I still have somewhere a video of an interview of Lorne talking about an online game, I think it will be not the one who is coming but the one just after to promote a bit the Xbox Live
