General Discussion

Now I've never watched and I'm not sure how credible this is but it's enough to make me raise not one, but both eyebrows:

Hope it's the truth! Cheers

I hope this is true.

I love Bioware's work.

However, the thing that pisses me off the most about Bioware is that they make a great game and then they hand off the sequel to Obsidian who does a bang up job of trying to follow up Bioware.

KotoR2 was buggy and they left stuff out. It wasn't nearly as smooth as KotoR1.

The Neverwinter Nights games are a mirror image. Granted, Obsidian is smoothing alot of things out with NWN2, but NWN2 was horrible at release.

Hopefully if they really are developing a KotoR MMO they'll have good character customizations and non instanced player housing.

"How about I prove you wrong by saying that we are not working on KotOR 3 and have no plans to start? It may be a rumor or w hope or w wish or whatever, but we are not currently working on KotOR 3 and we have no plans to work on KotPR 3 at this (or any afaik) time."

Then another guy says:

"To echo Chris: if it's being done, it's certainly not being done by us."

"If I recall correctly, LucasArts was developing KotOR III internally at one point and canned the project.  That's likely what prompted the statement.  Of course, my memory isn't the most reliable source of information."

Well if they decide to work on any MMO, it will be at least a couple years before it is out.  There is a lot more work in writing a MMO than just a rpg.  So I would not get your panties in a bunch about it.  So many of these MMO projects never see the light of day.

umm am i missing something here?

Earlier this year, BioWare announced the formation of a mini-studio devoted to developing the new Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic MMO.

is it me or does that statement right there trash their credibility? i might be a little behind the times, but since when did Bioware announce that the new "mini-studio" was created to make KOTORO?

They never did.  What they DID say is that they are making an MMO based on a completely NEW IP. 

how on earth this new IP became translated to KOTOR Online is beyond me, but I think its funny and shows how someone can say something and the public takes it the complete opposite.
