I've got a friend of mine that has a few good ideas for making his own MMORPG and fancies a go at doing it himself. He's got the time and probably the patience to see it through.
Trouble is, I have no clue about how to advise him on where to even start. I could advise him to start learning C++ or look into the Unreal Engine but I have no idea if that's beneficial for an MMO. I can tell you that he's looking to make a 3D game, rather than a side-scroller.
Has anyone got any ideas? Pointers on where to look for setting up a server would be handy and what he should start learning in terms of programming and/or graphics design.
