I wish u are right

i am really hoping a new galaxies MMoRPG, since i canceled galaxies with NGE i am really expectiing a new game related to the galaxies universe, which i think is one of the richest theme for a good online game

 i really miss my old galaxies, i think it was superb ..

my only concern and wish is that soe is not the developer :( i really dont like soe's way of handling online games

i was expecting a lucasarts direct development of a new galaxies

in all ways, it will be really welcome and ofc i will be in ;)

agree

i think i can remember, soe asked lucas permissions for adding some new spaceships or mobs or something like that, and lucas answered yes really quickly, so the addings were added to game really fast so i agree that soe used lucas for excussing themselves

i mentioned lucas as the full responsable of the proyect, developing + maintenance + online explotation .. ( i wish i could be true ;)

Would not be strange at all. They just made the SWG team smaller, where did the others go?

I think they will be using the VG/Unreal engine to make the game. Buying Sigil was not only about VG but also about the tech behind the screens. All the other MMO's SOE owns using rather old tech.

Buying Sigil for Peanuts was because they publish the game and spent money on it, Sigil had no other choice. SOE Bought the Unreal 3 engine so i think they would be making it on that and think they will use it for their upcoming games.

Well if it is a SW IP, which I seriously doubt... then again it is SOE.... They do tend to latch onto bad ideas and big mistakes like a fly on poop.

IF anyone was to make a new SW MMO, don't expect it to be anything like the old SWG...you guys are setting yourselves up for another big disappointment. The MMO market has changed, that style of game isn't going to go over with LA again. They already went through it once, they won't do it again. Its far more likely you would end up with a far more limited and generic, combat focused Jedi MMO without much of what SWG currently has.  (minus out all that placeable housing, city building, starship customization, GCW, crafting and whatever else in favor of quick crafting, instanced housing IF they had it at all, maybe some vehicles, expect zone style, linear gameplay, instanced battlegrounds with capture the flag or something, starships I could see them doing a stripped down version of what they have now with no interiors....thats the trend people....fast and easy) 

Its not that the old SWG ideas were bad, they were pretty darn good, but it was just to overwhelming and to much for them to deal with. The scope of the old SWG was unmanagable for SOE. MMOs have toned down in the last few years sticking with formulas of access instead of depth and complexity. It going to continue this way mainly because that is what the larger MMO community responds to and thats where they put their money....fast "fun" gameplay and they are not interested in barriers to gameplay.

I don't like it myself but thats the reality. The "complex" MMO's that are around are dying off and the easier access ones are still growing after years of being on the market.
