You can tell the engine is being built for more traditional MMOs when you crack open the userconfig.ini and see MMORPG stuff like guild invites and trade/dual requests in it.
When a company has a cross game Platform like SOE or Turbine ( All Trubine games are the same engine ). There is a group dedicated to JUST the engine itself, agnostic of the games made with it.

But do not be confused with engine layer and game layer.

So far SOE has used this engine for Free Realms, Starwars and now Planetside.
