General Discussion

interesting, i envision a small number of massive spaceports where we can all meet and greet and possibly kill each other.  and a large number of planets  where we can go to quest and gather resources and of course kill each other.

putting this on the console is a no brainer. give us a decent "destiny" storyline ala AOC, lots of explorable content, some pvp, infinite avatar and ship customization.  and how about some couch co-op like in fable 2? with two accounts of course.

It's the sound of thousands of SWG vets heads exploding with pure joy. 

 

EA, don't screw this up.  Let BioWare do what they do best.

 

No

I hear thousands of Star Wars and pre CU/NGE fans going :... "oh noes... wow in space with lightsabers"...

 

this is gonna be about classes, levels, raids, arenas / battlegrounds / instances and linear.. BLAH

 

 

omg I hope not. I pray its more like KOTR cause I'm not down for that nonsense either.

so what happens when the stories run out and where is the replayability?

storylines that are tailored towards linear makes no sense for mmos.. sure it is good for the developer but where is the point?

I have two things to say...WOOT!!

and...

In your FACE $OE!!

I am happy at this news.

Yes. A Bioware MMO will be delicious. KotOR makes it better.

I am 100% read up on all the lore of KOTOR and the rest of the SW universe ive read 90% of the books and whatnot and am well versed

The main thing that bothers me about this decision is that jedi will NOT be jedi.

The first quest where your jedi has to kill X bandits for X amount of items or w/e well you're not a Jedi anymore. For a jedi combat is supposed to be a last resort not an all the time resort that is just the easy way to play. That was the best part of the KOTOR games was the different ways you could solve the situations and the LIGHT/DARK meter. If kotor will be an mmo EVERYONE will be darkside in the eyes of the lore and it'll just be hey my sith is cooller than your sith...

I'm kinda excited but i can't see kotor translating into a good MMO universe... there can't be plot twists story hooks deep character develpment or anything like that in which i loved. Everyones gonna make a dark sith assasin or something and it'll be awfull... i'd much rather have seen a kotor3.

Unless bioware comes up with something revolutionary in terms of gameplay and options for your character not to mention instancing (i don't wanna run around town watching sith jump all over the place) i cannot imagine it being very immersive at all.

Sounds good, can't wait to read more and see DeaconX's new sig he probably working on!

And uhmm......you know this how?

This sort of comment is exactly what I'm talking about when I say it's silly to condemn OR condone a game before it's released.  Hell....THIS game is barely a single cell organism yet, and some people are already planning out it's demise.  Ridiculous and immature, I say.  Good grief, I hope none of you ever serve on a jury in this country, if you're in the U.S.  O.o  Bioware is innocent until proven guilty (of high crimes and treason against the gaming public).  You can't charge and convict without evidence, and Sir (or Madam), you have none yet.

People just like to complain and whine. I think they get some kind of weird enjoyment out of it.
