    Bioware into a world of hurt? What are you going to do? Send them email? Post on their message boards!? Oh no! anything but that!

    I'm going to be rude here for a second, But SWG whiners, please, do everyone a favor and shut the hell up.

    Bioware will make their OWN game, in case you haven't noticed yet the name of the game is Knights of the old republic online, Not "Bioware presents Star Wars Galaxies: PRE - NGE edition".

    Bioware does NOT owe it to you to create a pre nge SWG game just because they are using the star wars license. They will make their own game.

    Ah, but you completely missed the point of the thread.  It is not Bioware making this game, it is Lucas Arts and Bioware, notice which name I placed first in this sentence.
     

    Lucas Arts thinks they know what MMO players want and that is a very FPS like game.  Bioware truely has a dragon by the tail.  We will have to wait and see how this match in hell works out to see if Bioware can maintain the vision they have had in other games or bow to persistent pressure from Lucas Arts.

    Personally I think it would be a huge mistake to try to make game like pre NGE SWG.  I think Bioware should use their talents to make a better game.  But I am dearly afraid that Lucas Arts will dictate otherwise.

    
     

    It doesn't matter one bit if Lucal Arts is involved or not, Bioware will probably be in charge of the design of the game.

    
     

    Hmm, you say it does not matter....bet you can ask SOE if it matters or not.  Bioware in charge of design, sure... as long as they make the game like LA thinks it should be......  You have to be pretty naive to believe that Bioware is the one in control here.

    There really is no need to reply to my posts with 2 different accounts Ozmodan.
     

    I don't think SOE will answer that question, nor do I think that LA is going to tell Bioware what and what not to do. I think you're just looking for an excuse to bash the game and voice a negative opinion about it before it is even officially announced yet.

    I love how the OP says " I know that I for one will be giving them a tough time"

     

    it's like...okay...you do that...I'll be enjoying the game and asking "who the hell are you?"

     

    Bioware doesn't care if you give them a hard time, you are nobody.

    
     

    oh yeah!? well don't you understimate the power of the internets!

    We're going to like...post on the forums, posting how much this game sucks... and....chat in irc channels and stuff....and we might even make an online petition!

    So just you wait bioware! If you do not answer to the SWG's vets will, we're going to take you down! muhahahahah!

    No diversity. Come on... everyones a spy of some sort. This will get boring REAL quick. No way for a player to be original or stand apart in the game. Sounds like a console game to me.

    
     

    I'm sorry but that's a really unfair argument. In a typical fantasy MMORPG we're all adventurers, in a game like Tabula Rasa we're all soldiers, in a game like EVE we're all pilots, in a game like City of Heroes we're all super heroes.

    
     

    Hmm... maybe thats why everyone keeps complaining about how MMO's have become so stale lately. No originality. Let me be a soldier, or spy, or pilot, or adventurer, or super hero in ONE game. Now that is diversity and that breaks the MMO molds. Why do people keep acting like a game like this will keep their interest. All of the MMO's you named off, I don't play, for the same reason I won't play this one. Same ol' same ol' crap game with nothing new to bring to the table except it spies now. WTF! Just my opinion. I like to be innovative, original and think outside the current MMO box. It's all just a nitche thing. I want more out of a game.

    You can't appeal to everybody, you're asking way, way to much from just one game. It's much better for one game to focus on one theme and get that right instead of trying to appeal to everybody and give a mediocre experience to everyone. You can't create a game that has a flight system of EVE, a full stealth mechanic and content suited for stealth AND adventuring of traditional mmorpg's, that's impossible.

    Yo Mr. Gameloading, I'm not stupid. I know you can't appeal to everyone. It's just the majority that I'm after.

    As for the rest of your comment... It's that type of attitude that continues to keep MMO's where they are, mediocre, cookie cutter, niche crap. As for a "traditional MMO", you are correct, it is impossible. Get your head out of the box and start thinking NEXGEN.

    Quote me: All games are niche games that appeal to certain groups. If you can take all the best parts of each game and put them together you get the next big game.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but AO and SWG are pretty diverse are they not. Single theme yes , but lots of player diversity. Especially SWG pre-CU. It appealed to a large audience. Too bad SOE F**ked it up. AO, hell, I can't wait till the graphics upgrade goes live. Lord knows it needs it bad.

    
     

    A game like Star Wars Galaxies is not really a game that focus on anything, in fact, I think it's the perfect example. Star Wars Galaxies also has some form of space flight combat, is it anything compared to EVE? No, ofcourse not, because it's not the games focus. Or take crafting in mmorpg's. Now some mmorpgs do crafting quite well, but then compare that to a game that is completely build around crafting, such as ATITD. ATITD easily wins.

    You can't just take bits and pieces from other games, put them all in one and expect them to work, and it takes way, waaayyy to much time to combine all of EVE with all of SWG,, for example.

    That's why games like The Agency's focus is entirely on being a spy/action hero.

    YOUR opinion, and that's all it is. We can agree to disagree. In my opinion you are SOOOO wrong. My point shall be proven soon enough. I will forgive you in advance for your short sightedness. Live and learn.

    
     

    Yes Infrared, I'm sure there will one day be a game development company that can make 7 completely different type of games at once and put them all into one game

• • Nothing special.

  • I really wonder why people insist on making these threads.

    You think the game is nothing special and it doesn't seem appealing to you? Fine, no problem, then go post in the section of a game you DO enjoy or are looking forward to.

    I mean, do you honnestly think we're all waiting for you to come here and tell us how you think this game is "nothing special"? People come here to learn about the game or to talk about it because their excited about it.

    It's really a shame the negative attitude usually found in sections like WAR, age of Conan and darkfall is starting to spread here, we had a nice little community here. Oh well, it was fun while it last i guess.
