One of the things I think will benefit this game is the fact that they dont have to take into account the lore from the movies. This era gives them a lot of freedom to develop characters, professions, stories and lore. Who will rule? the Sith or the Republic? I dont care as long as I get paid for my hard merchendaise.

and there were lots of jedi, so it won't seem rediculous when you see them running around. |

NICE VISION I do hope we will have the ability to have free trade and a cool and complex crafting system. You really had to have talent to succeed as a Trader / Merchant in SWG. I also hope there is a neutral faction as well...Real Smuggling would be nice as well. |

I hope that we still have the opportunity to PVP for whichever side we choose. Nothing quite like having a group of friends decked out in Storm trooper armor (or the equivalent) chasing down a bunch of flagged rebel scum... |

Agree with you...I DO! However, the thing I could never get over was the fact that REBS and IMPS seemed to group together all too often. They would always be seen socializing and what not in the Pubs and Canteens. I never really felt we were at War. If anything, I want to have a real hate for the other side! |

How do you see a Player Bounty System in this game Working? |

Not sure about how i wish the system for BH should be. Only that if you do something bad, expect a visit. Kinda excited about what this game will offer in that regard. Hauken Stormchaser |

While I am hopeful that the new Bioware game will have great combat, factions and consentual PvP, I also hope the developers take advantage of gving the noncombat side of the game serious depth, which will make for a much more cohesive community and attract the not-so-hard-core combatant and social types types. I was never so much of a true SW fan, so the breaks lore don't really bother me much - - but I was certainly irked when SWG became so Jedi centric at the cost of the rest of the player professions and the general well being of the game.

Say no to fixed factions, let the players actions decide who he/she is. |

/HURL! Yes you are right and I really think that given the right mechanic, faction mixing can be used as an exploit. It just depends on what they are planning. Guess we will see on the 21st. |

I loved that about swg. I was hardcore pvp and almost always on overt rebel. Toward release moenia was a very rebel town and I would hang out there alot since naboo happened to be my favorite planet. We always new who the imps were and would often smack talk (half rping) to provoke a fight that would turn into a skirmish that would end up having 2 guilds going back and forth between moenia and theed. Rebs vs Imps. Its also very star warsy to have the 2 factions intertwine as some are not as vocal (covert vs overt) as others but are part of a guild or just generally support one way or another. |

Originally posted by ronan32 This would be excellent. Perhaps a "Fableesque" system where the more evil (or good) you become the more your appearance changes. Look at how becoming a Sith affects the movie and game characters. It's a Jeep thing. . .

The best way to do that is have many other cool and viable professions. |

If this does actually turn out to be a Kotor MMO I fully expect a class system much like they had in the single player game. You have your basic Jedi classes and then Jedi mastery classes although I also expect very little freedom to customize characters. It's a Jeep thing. . .

That makes little sense... The 1st KOTOR game was a single player game. Few customization options work for single player games, but MMOs are another story. You want players to have the ability to set themselves apart from others. I think if this project was underfunded you may get a bare-bones type game. However, Lucas Arts and BiOWARE have the means to make any game they wish. The question is... What kind of game do they Want to make? |

Originally posted by Dark_Fail . . .and that, my friend, is the burning question. Will Bioware be given the freedom needed to make the game their own, or will LA step in to restrict everything and set unrealistic goals? It's a Jeep thing. . .
