Personally i'd love to see it made like the sandbox SWG used to be, with massive open scope, player cities, and many classes. However i fear SOE will try to make it like WOW from day 1. It would be so cool to see Star Wars Galaxies 2 if it was like the first one, but 3rd generation graphics, the draw distances of Vanguard and i'd even except WOW style instanced dungeons, as long as the rest of the game was a sandbox. Of course it would also help it if was technically polished from day 1, and got a good stable launch. If i was SOE i'd buy the Crysis Engine, aim for a 2009 release day (By that time everyone would have PC's that would run the engine really smothly and it will still look good) and just polish the game, until its was released in Q4 2009. It could take the MMO world by storm, and in 2009 i think it would be possible for a amazing MMO to have 10 million players.

I'd like to see another developer pick up the Star Wars MMO title. SOE ruined it for me, so I really don't want anything to do with them again.

"If" they make a SWG2 it will not be aa snadbox type game. They will model it after WoW and it will be a kiddie game. You'll never play another MMO like the original SWG ever again.

If another developer did what SOE did they would fail, the tech just isn't up to par to give a non-bugged balanced game, with a playing style of SWG(pre-suck), possible http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y239/Tabatron/Fading-SWGEMU.gif http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y239/Tabatron/Fading-SWGEMU.gif

I highly doubt that Lucus Arts would let SOE have another franchise as they really have made a bad name for the Star Wars mmo. If and when the next Star Wars mmo is made you can bet a different developer will make it.

Well, for one thing, if there is to be a SWG 2 I hope that SOE has nothing to do with it. Second, I really doubt it will be a "sand box" game similar to the original. The reasons why are simple. World of Warcraft. a good game but it seems that its success will mean everyone will clone it. SOE tried to copy and paste WoW into SWG but we all know that. I would LOVE to see an open sand box game that incorperates the following: Sim City like building, Lots on NPCs that live in player build cities, full space sim and combat all incorperating Star Wars lore. I think when players have alot of freedom to infuence the world it makes it fun for everyone but there must be alot of things to keep people busy.

Sad Outdated Entertainment has already had their shot and mutilated it. Time for someone who is more in touch with reality to get a chance at making a decent Star Wars MMO.
Jbell1 Novice Member Joined: 1/05/04 Posts: 20	1/26/07 6:22:59 PM#10 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) I have been thinking about this ever since they killed off the original SWG. I would LOVE to see SWG continued,. I would like to see the original sandbox gameplay brought back, as I just loved the skill trees and such. Also, perhaps have this one set in the Expanded Universe? I think having a more open ended SW universe setting would ROCK. I LOVED the original SWG but almost didn't play it as I do not like playing a MMO that is set in a specific era of time where hthe events of the world are set and unchangable. Anyway, I hope to see this happen one day!:)

rikilii Novice Member Joined: 9/22/05 Posts: 1063	1/26/07 6:41:52 PM#13 Report this post Explain why you are reporting this post: (750 characters max.) My guess is that they (whoever makes it, that is) will make it however will make the most money. That might be a pseudo-sandbox style, might not. Perhaps the success of some up-coming sandbox style games will determine what direction they go. I could see the success of the following MMOs as harbringers of hope for something other than WoW with blasters: 1. AOC 2. PoBS 3. Vanguard 4. Africa (or whatever that game is called) Honestly, if they took everything they did right with the space game, and applied it to the ground game, they might be on to something. PS: Before you blame SOE for messing up SWG, take a good look at the other games SOE is doing, and then think about the company that has been looking over SOE's shoulder on every move it has made with SWG. Then reallocate the blame accordingly. ____________________________________________ im to lazy too use grammar or punctuation good

SOE clearly does not believe at all in anything but cloning WoW and reusing junk from EQ2. Which is why Raph left, among other things. If SOE handled another Star Wars MMO it probably wouldn't launch with even 100,000 players. Their reputation is completely and utterly shot with Star Wars and with the fan base.

They won't... because fans will burn down every building belonging to SOE. Project Mayhem vs. SOE. Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds?

Does anyone believe that an SWG2 will ever be released? I don't think that will ever happen. Although another star wars mmo will be created. It will be set around the time of KOTOR. I'm certain some company is in the early stages of planning this game. But then again.... I could always be wrong?
