Answer 3

Seeing as you don't know what language to use, I assume this will be your first game project. Heads up: MMORPG's are literally the hardest type of game to make, especially if you want it to actually be good. I would start out with something on a MUCH smaller scale.

As of what language to use, I made a post regarding this. Search "About Making Games" in the discussion thread. To keep it short: The language all depends on what engine you plan on using. Some support c++ and others c#. Heck, I know that Unity will even support JavaScript. Some also have their own languages, like GameMaker or RPG Maker (Which actually has custom Ruby scripting)

Also, if you're really serious about making this project a reality, good luck. I would keep it on PC though, so that you don't have to worry about compatibility or cross-platform issues. I HIGHLY recommend starting with something smaller first though.
