RaginCajun Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 "LucasArts: KOTOR 3, Mercenaries 2 LucasArts' recent silence by no means equals inactivity. On the contrary, Knights of the Old Republic 3, in development with Obsidian Development, is in the early stages of creation for a late 2006 -- most likely a 2007 -- release. The game should feature more seamless interaction between NPCs and the lead character, as well as better, more economic interactions between party members. We predict the combat system will go entirely realtime, as opposed to partially realtime (the way it was in KOTOR 1 and 2), and RPG fans will be able to enjoy more distinct shades of gray recognized by characters instead of the black and white distinctions made in the first two iterations of the series." http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/680/680220p1.html
Nedak Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 KOTOR 3 will be only for 360? Crap (better start saving up =D)
Darth Windu Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 LOL, yeah right. LA might contract to Obsidian Entertainment, but I've never heard of Obsidian Development. Also, to have only real-time combat would mean abandoning the current engine, which would change the way the game plays. Not gonna happen. It's like saying the new Jedi Knight game will be completely turn-based. I should also point out that this is opinion not fact - big difference.
Darth InSidious Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Sounds a little suspicious to me. Quoted for emphasis
Bob Lion54 Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 IGN Predicts 2006, Pt. 1 What will 2006 bring? IGN's editors prophesize the future of Xbox 360 in 2006. Its IGN just having fun predicting things. They want it to be funny (I think). Dios Mio!
IndianaSolo Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 Its IGN just having fun predicting things. They want it to be funny (I think). Dios Mio! Exactly. It's their predictions, probably done in a half-joking type of way too.
Nedak Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 like saying the new Jedi Knight game will be completely turn-based. There is going to me a new Jedi Knight game?!?! :sbdance
Gray_Master Posted January 10, 2006 Posted January 10, 2006 more economic interactions with party members? lol that sounds funny, I'm such a great Jedi/Sith you gotta pay just to talk to me =P It would be cool if KOTOR 3 was already in the works, but anything that says "it's going all real time" is bogus. You know how many fans would be up in arms..in real-time or turn-based fans would be up in arms....ooo bad joke =P
Sabretooth Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 Its IGN just having fun predicting things. They want it to be funny (I think). Dios Mio! Damn. Beat me to it.
Cygnus Q'ol Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 Taking a turn-based combat RPG and turning it into a realtime FPS after two games in a successful format? Ha ha ha, whoa, whoo whoo! Oh boy, Ha ha ha... (Stops typing to catch breath from laughing...) Sorry, that's the funniest thing I've heard today. (whew, still sweating from a great laugh)
Prime Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 Taking a turn-based combat RPG and turning it into a realtime FPS after two games in a successful format?They did not say that it will be a FPS. The claim merely was that it would be realtime. There is a big difference.
Darth n00b Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 KOTOR 3 will be only for 360? Crap (better start saving up =D) They didn't say anything about that. As far as I know did the KotOR series good on the PC so there should be no reason for LA to make it 360 exlusive. Unless Darth Gates have pushed som money over to them...
Cygnus Q'ol Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 They did not say that it will be a FPS. The claim merely was that it would be realtime. There is a big difference. What is the difference between realtime and semi-realtime? How would this manifest itself in this particular game?
ChAiNz.2da Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 What is the difference between realtime and semi-realtime? How would this manifest itself in this particular game? I posted an answer relating somewhat to that question here: http://www.lucasforums.com/showpost.php?p=1988790&postcount=105 But feel free to comment on it (or others add to it) as you see fit Link to FULL thread: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=152913
Cygnus Q'ol Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 Thanks Chainz, that helps a bit. Much appreciated. I hope it doesn't come to that.
Nedak Posted January 11, 2006 Posted January 11, 2006 They didn't say anything about that. As far as I know did the KotOR series good on the PC so there should be no reason for LA to make it 360 exlusive. Unless Darth Gates have pushed som money over to them... I read another article about it maybe being on 360. Oh and also I kinda live by "Darth Gates" so I know the true meaning of pain
kushan10 Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Is KOTOR 3 going to on Xbox 360 only!? Lets hope not.
Jeff Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Is KOTOR 3 going to on Xbox 360 only!? Lets hope not. Well microsoft announced that no more games for the normal xbox would be made from now on i believe. EDIT: But I'm sure it will be made for PC.
lukeiamyourdad Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Although much smaller, I believe the PC market to be sufficiently big to warrant at least some sort of port from an Xbox 360 version.
pokejedi123 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 and if it comes to 360 man force help us and all kotor fans who own a PC will go and protest against lucas arts and i will be one of them(although im from estonia)
JediMaster12 Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 I hope it's not 360 exclusive. I'm a PC person myself.
swediot=) Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 well kotor1 was pc game of the year there is no way they will release this for 360 only. plus the games were way better on the pc anyway i tried it on xbox and it did not come with all the content.... what was up with that
