Ill be more clear then. They said to everyone that the license is not over. Then I walk up at Q/A and ask would there be another SWG mmo or star wars mmo the Lucas art guy came up and said there is none in plane. And they wont to work on Swg more ect. Deadmeat said why would we wont 2 swg mmo makes no since and all the resorces would go to waist and then both would fail. and   sorry I should of made it more clear maybe not like no. sorry. No is a boild word ill give it that and don't get me wrong I bet they are making stuff up to me on that topic because they wouldn't look at me when they were talking about it. Who knows really.

So they couldnt look at the guy when they were telling him this and he admits they were probably making stuff up. Way to go on spreading false information.

Not false information, that is LA's current public statement on the matter.  His relucatance to believe is his personal opinion and he is right, know one really does know if LA is covering something up or not.  This isn't the first time they've stated this though.

 

The only thing I've ever seen is LA saying the license isnt ending. If you can prove me wrong where they've said there will not be another SW mmo then show me a link. You're spreading false information by stating something from a source who says he thinks they were probably lying to him. That makes you no better than some of these people with "inside sources".

In this interview, made around the same time as that Bioware/LA announcement, they state that they have no sequel planned.

Yeah they said a sequel. I think anyone in thier right mind knows there won't be an SWG sequel. Nowhere does he say there won't be another SW mmo. Maybe if you could admit you're wrong once people wouldn't think you were such a shill. Stop spreading false information and trying to spin things.

Not having another SW MMO would be an awful waste of an IP IMO.

A Star Wars MMO should be pulling in at least 500K subs IMO, and to not have one available would be a rather foolish thing for LA not to jump at. My guess is if Bioware isn't doing it then we'll get an announcement in about a year of a new one starting development.

But the one thing I've noticed is that there seems to be quite a bit of "news" items about SWG recently. It almost feels like SoE are preparing for something by attemtping to keep the SWG name in the spotlight. Could it be a possible threat from AoC? Or could they be anticipating something else coming up shortly?

Something just feels kind of desperate about the Hoth announcement to me, so I think the next few months may be interesting to watch.

I'm the one spreading false information?  No where has LucasArts mentioned that there will be another Star Wars MMO.  The LA/Bioware announcement has no mention of MMO anywhere in it, people such as yourself are simply jumping to conclusions and spreading those self-created conclusions around forums.

PRE CU showed what current crapware can't complete  >400 k is possible but  a smart game design like that one we had before the crap CU/NGE patches is needed.

I believe you nailed it. The NJE game update today will not be as well received as hoped, and with AoC releasing in less than a month, it certainly IS a threat to the small, fragile player population SWG clings to right now. The summit talk is just that, talk. Hoth may or may not go live in the distant future, but it IS a carrot to dangle in front of the players for now.

Here is how they can "add" Hoth to the game without really adding Hoth:

Arrive at Hoth via space.  Dock and go to "planet" actually an instanced cave.

Fight wampas (Hoth Ice Monsters) every few feet using one of the 3 or 4 maps in the game, transformed into Hoth by way of ice monsters and white walls....

At the bottom of the cave hop into a At-At and face off across a large room against npc controlled At-Ats.

Voila!  Hoth is added, as promised! 

From a certain point of view!
