Lightsabers inside any mmo... = crap...
why they keep thinking the player is luke skywalker.. yeah right we are going to have 1 million luke skywalkers around.. this is so ridiculous... Uncle Owen.. ok that is reasonable.. but luking around sounds like a mess... |

What makes a good MMO? Good quality, good customer service, good business model, good fun. |
A "New Hope" for StarWars MMO fans. Very welcome news indeed. |

Nonsense, Jedis broke SWG. This game smells of Jedi. |

Lightsabers are only really cool because they can cut through almost anything, no game has or will have ones like that. |

Finally! its announced
Im so glad this is being made, I wasnt able to be a part of Star Wars Galaxies when it was first released but I will definately try this out if it ever hits the MMO market. I played Kotor2 and loved it, one of the best games ive ever played for PC right there with other classics like MechWarrior 2, Fighter Ace, Battlefield 1942, and Asheron's Call |

Still a ways off, but definetly good news to hear if your a Star Wars Fanatic like myself! I wonder what this will do to SWG, will it be the final nail in the coffin? Or can 2 Star Wars mmorpg exist at the same time. Guess time will tell.. Oh yeah, and does this mean we get a Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWtOR or SWOR) forum on mmorpg.com now as a game in development? Fallen Earth / Lords of War |

Humm... I haven't seen such uninspiring graphics since Cryptic re-announced the Star Trek MMO. I could say that it's early and they will surly improve before launch, but I'm not a fanboy (and I've been through this too many times to delude myself with optimism.)

"Star Wars Galaxy was our last hope" "No. There is another!"

I am excited about this game. Bioware has a good reputation when they do the developing. Obsidian(sp) their sister company is kind of crappy IMO but Bioware seems to be spot on. |

All the signs are there for a great game. Going to reserve judgement until more information is out. I have been pretty disappointed with WAR and I had massive hopes for that. This could easily go down the same basic gameplay route targeting the masses and not the actual hard core fans.... so hope they dont fk this up

Unparalleled, strategically placed tears of joy have typed this message. This game will be freaking amazing. |

Don't know what to think of it yet. I do not want yet another singeplayer RPG with a multiplayer element, we have enough of those. I loved the KOTOR series, but just because I sometimes do not want to be bothered by other people ... somehow it feels this "MMO" will also be lacking rpg aspects due to the emphasis on "story driven".... which i read as "Lineair, we tell you what to do and where to go, and don't ever think of leaving the set path" ..
I loved all Bioware Singleplayers, but if they call this an MMORPG, damn*d, it better be one !!!!!

It will be interesting to see how Bioware pull this MMO off. If they're looking over their shoulder at the Blizzard formula for MMO's then apply a Star was wrapper around it to appeal to generation Y. I doubt it will pull in many of the original star wars fan gamers who were Star wars crazy way before generation Y were even born. I got a feeling Mr Lucas will be making sure this game caters to generation Y. He is after all behind the NGE in an attempt to chase the sub number of WOW using the Star Wars IP. You can be sure this is attempt number two! |

kinda funny right before i read this post i was saying to my friend.. "this almost feels like, LA's attempt #2 at perfecting the NGE to get all the kids who want a lightsabre"... lol.
I have high hopes for this game, but I can see now it will just be a bunch of jedi everywhere.... |

I agree. I played swg from launch up to 2 months past NGE.. Then i threwup. Like you said, Bioware and LA will make this new starwars game for Y crowd. But im going to have my eyes on this game.

I hope to god they pretty much remake the classical style SWG....starships//vehicles//city building all that stuff.....o DEFINITLY do not make it that anyone can be a jedi.....1000 jedis in one area is just plain stupid. One thing that was really kool imo about SWG that it was very hard to be a jedi. And it made sence to the lore. When i say difficult i mean there can only be like 5 jedi's appearing on the server once a year. Maybe less. |

But for the sake of starwars mmo, DONT inplement jedi... What will happen if jedi is implemented.. Who do u think is going to play the jedi?? OMG i see one already, that kid is currently playing in a sandbox outside my window..
Woohooo.. Jedi is big fail.. Keep it to lore and shit.. but dont let players play them That will keep the lore and the mystiq about jedi... If a player plays ajedi, do u think that jedi will loose in pvp against a regular human.. OMG where is the brains behind this?? A jedi cant loose!!! |

I hope that SW:TOR will be a great game and perhaps the fans of Star Wars Galaxies will find a game that they can truly enjoy for many years to come. I always wanted to be a stormtrooper and the ones in the Clone War looked better than the ones in the earlier films. It's time for some retconning I think.

Tell that to Boba Fett and the Mandalorians. No, the problem isn't Jedi, it's whiny people who want to play medics but think they should be able to stand up to Commandos and Jedi. You want to be able to PvP Jedi? Be a bounty hunter, or another Jedi/Sith. You want to be a medic or an officer? Then be prepared to use a team. After all, the purpose of a SUPPORT PROFESSION is to SUPPORT the team. This is what has fucked the balance up in most PvP games to date. Very few should be able to PvP one on one. The rest should require a team. Perhaps Bioware knows this and that's why they're going the RvR route. Star Wars galaxies tried the Galactic War route, but then tried to balance everyone for one on one and failed. |

If funcom had been talented enough to make the other 60 levels the same as the story filled first 20, they might have succeeded. And if they hadn't made every damn player no matter what race/faction have the EXACT same story (Oh, look. EVERYONE is the Chosen One ). Now look at Bioware. You really think they couldn't make an entire game like the first 20 levels of AoC? Hell, they could make twice as many levels as AoC and fill every one with story. This is what they are good at. If you look at the interview they gave at Gamespot, every class/race/faction a player may choose has it's own story. Everyone is not the Chosen One. That is just one of many differences between a Bioware mmo and a Funcom one. |

And remember who is making this game, It is not some small unknown dev team, The have a good track record.
