Star Wars Galaxies

Lets assume Lucas is working on a new SW MMO....

*What do you think it will be? KOTOR or CW?

*Will it have Depth and complexity or will it be WOWish?

*When could we see such a game?

*Will SOE even be involved?

1. Either KOTOR or Clone wars era will suit me fine.

2. It will be WoW'ish im afraid. No one will leave the WoW formula in many years.

3. Yes

4. If SOE is involved then the project is doomed to fail.

I would be mighty surprised if it was NOT a Clone Wars era setting.

*Will it have Depth and complexity or will it be WOWish?

Like the replier before me, I'm quite certain it will be another Class + Level system like most other games.  Ah, the lack of innovation these days...

*When could we see such a game?

Not sure when.

*Will SOE even be involved?

 If the MMO Gods deem that the MMO playerbase needs to be punished... yes.

an mmorpg based on the episode 5 universe?...nice!

agree! I would love both!

With Clone Wars I can almost see a WARHAMMER ONLINE style of play. You know a very PVP centric game. I do hate the lack of depth and complexity WAR brings to the table. However, at this point I just want a new STARWARS game.

1..I really am hoping for KoTOR, but I have a feeling it's going to be CW; even though I don't want CWs I will play it.

2..I don't think it will be sandbox, which sucks, but if they go a similar route like KoTOR 1 and 2 I will be ok with that.

3..I am hoping it will be release by Christmas at least, if not then very early 2009.

4..For the sake of LA and Bioware, they better not be.  If they were dumb enough to involve $OE (Screw Over Everyone) then they game would be vaporware from day 1.

*Yes I do want quality and qaunity.

*I want the very best DX-10 game to be availible.

*I do want a great sandbox PVP game with elements of Raiding and strong PVE.

*I do hope it will be out by the end of this year but lets be reasonable...no beta let alone a playable game has been anounced.

I guess we must wait and see, but I really with someone would say something to the effect "We are making a STARWARS mmorpg and it will be out sometime in the next 3 to 5 years". Anything to give hope you know.

I personaly hope neither but hope that Bioware is working on something truly unique, but as far my prediction, i feel if there is gonna be a new star wars mmo it's probebly going to be Clone Wars.....would be the safest bet.

*Will it have Depth and complexity or will it be WOWish?

If it's the teamup of Bioware/Lucas it will have the depth we are used getting from Bioware and it most certainly have Wowish elements due to the wants&needs from Lucas.

*When could we see such a game?

The game as describe'd in this reply, probeble 1/2 years from now, the game or MMORPG i would like to see might take another 3/5 years before tech is capable of developing the things i would love to see in a mmorpg.

*Will SOE even be involved?

Nah, don't think they will be involved, see no reason why they should.

1. KOTOR or CW doesn't really matter for me, something tell's me i want KOTOR but i don't know why.

2. I think it should be a graphical beauty, with DX 10 for sure.

3. I think a new SW MMO will be created in the next 2-3 year's.

4. I hope SOE won't be involved since they already messed up one SW MMO.

I think all the signs (the few that have been out there) point to Bioware working on a Clone Wars type MMO.  The reason i say this is because:

1-  there have been some postings of some materials that someone retrieved from the Bioware dumpster in Austin

2- Clone Wars is due out in theaters in August 2008.  Seems like whatever they have been working on in Austin for 2 years now definitely has their heads down, working towards a goal

3- if it were KOTOR, there is really no reason that they wouldnt take advantage of their enormous previous success with this intellectual property and plug the heck out of it, building up the hype

4- LucasArts is leasing StreamBase complex event processing for whatever they are cooking with BioWare.  LA Is notorious for all the movie tie-ins to products, video games, etc and the two big things on the horizon at the end of this year are 1- Indy 4 and 2- Clone Wars in theaters.

my money is on Clone Wars MMO.  if it's not announced within the next 60-90 days, it's gotta be something else, as the theatrical release is just around the corner.
