Although I would love a KOTOR mmo, as I am a big fan, Lucas Arts has already stated that they have no plans for introducing a KOTOR mmo because the target audience is too small. While I take this, as always, with a grain of salt, it does make perfect sence from a business perspective.

 

 

when did LA say this? do you have any link?


I agree...

Didn't Lucas say that the KOTOR IP "wouldn't get left behind?

Unfortunately I do not have a link, it was from an article I read a while back. There is a chance that this as false, however it makes to much sence to believe so. If I am not mistaken, it was regarding talks about the bioware mmo, and the LA conection to it. We all know there are many rumors that the bioware mmo will be a KOROR one. They had made this annoucement in regards to some of these rumors. However I'm just going off memory here, so I could be wrong.

Yup......LucasArts VP Nancy MacIntyre said this in 2006 > LINK

 

"as MacIntyre confirms: "We've also got Star Wars franchises like Knights of the Old Republic ... that we will not leave behind. It's very important to us that we grow those franchises."

+What also happend in 2006 was > LINK

"BioWare Licenses Simutronics HeroEngine for MMO Game Project, Austin Game Conference 2006"

regardless of that i still don't hope on a KOTOR MMO as everything what made me love Kotor simply can not be done....yet....and i feel it will also lose its strenght that it got from being a singleplayer RPG.

I would love to see a KOTOR 3 and a truly unique new type of MMORPG from bioware, prefured perhaps a complete new IP.

But still feel their safest bet would be a Clone Wars MMO.

it better be clone wars/old school star wars.  i hate KOTOR as i miss the boys in White.  i cant stand a star wars without clone troopers or storm troopers. (also the number of jedi is a tad off putting)

yes it will be WoW'ish (but it will be done in a MUCH better way than NGE)

no we wont see it til at the earliest 2009/10 and then you got the 3 year developement to sit through.

SOE will not be involved.  Lucas Arts is a smart company and they dont make the same mistakes twice (or they better not with this MMO)

 

i would love to see a WoW clone to begin with,  then a small combat update that makes it more complex, and then a full game overhaul that turns it into a complex skills based game and alienates its original fans.

Wow, that is just retarded. Who in their right mind would make a game, and then change it so much that it would alienate its' own fans... oh wait, I think we've already seen that...
