RobQel-Droma Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Since most - I mean all - of these threads are about K3, I just had some thoughts about something different. (It's not like we have heard anything about the game yet, so some of the threads are getting a bit repetitive) So... how about this: I'm a fan of the JK series, and I like FPS games. I also know there's people out there that do. For those of us, I just was wondering... yes, it's probably an original idea.... if any of you would like to see an FPS star wars game, near that time period. Not another KOTOR prequel/sequel, but a non-RPG game taking place perhaps before K1, maybe in the Mando wars and detailing some of the backstory behind both games - even focus on Nihilus and Sion, and where they came from. Or, it could be even later, after all three games, and in the period between K3 and the Battle of Ruusan. What do you think? (if you think this is a good idea at all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Lion54 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Since most - I mean all - of these threads are about K3, I just had some thoughts about something different. Thats because this is the K3 section of the forums. Your idea is good for discussion, but would be better in Ahto. I like the idea, but would prefer K3.

Darth Windu Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Although that's probably a good idea, the reason why the threads in this forum are about KotOR3 is because this is a KotOR3 forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHawke Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Although that's probably a good idea, the reason why the threads in this forum are about KotOR3 is because this is a KotOR3 forum. I couldn't have said it better myself... moving to Ahto. @ Rob you should know not to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 Next time I will listen to that little voice in my head telling me that this isn't the right place... Hey, I haven't been in the Unknown Regions for a while. Call it memory loss; I couldn't figure out if this was supposed to be in here or not. Er... so what do you think about the actual idea?

FiEND_138 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I wouldn't mind another JK game, actually I'm wanting one more than Knights 3 at this point. In the KotOR era would be cool too, wouldn't mind seeing it at all. Though I'm still hoping for another Katarn game. *edit* Should have been more clear, lack of sleep. Should have read a JK like game in the KotOR era would be cool.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted August 7, 2006 Author Share Posted August 7, 2006 Yeah, I want JK3 also. But this would be a seperate game, and also probably using the new engine that's being used in the vader game. Wouldn't that be cool? (for JK3, also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finallis Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I like FPS games in general so I'm not opposed to having a FPS Star Wars game set sometime between the KotOR series and the Battle of Ruusan. It's a cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego Varen Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I would like a FPS style game for the KOTOR series. Like you said Rob, it could be in the Mandalorian Wars and maybe you could create a Jedi who either turns to the Light or Dark Side to fight Revan or join him. If you follow the Light Side, you fight Revan at the end and if you're dark, you should fight your Master. At any rate, I'd prefer KOTOR III for now.

Jeff Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Yeah, I want JK3 also. But this would be a seperate game, and also probably using the new engine that's being used in the vader game. Wouldn't that be cool? (for JK3, also)I admit to not playing any of the JK games, but wouldn't it be JK4? Lots of people think that new game engine is going to be used on a JK4, and I'd like to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feagildin Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Maybe the Exar Kun era would be good, too. Maybe even a cameo by Jolee, with a full head of hair. But yeah, I like the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted August 8, 2006 Author Share Posted August 8, 2006 I admit to not playing any of the JK games, but wouldn't it be JK4? Ah, I wondered if somebody would ask that. It's basically me being stubborn. I really don't like JA; that is, as a game to follow JO and the Dark Forces games. You didn't play as Katarn, the story was weak, it was the same whole thing all over again (one of the same bosses, doing the same force transfusing thing to create the same hordes of dark Jedi)... It really wasn't story-based anyways. You went on missions that had nothing to do with what really happened. Besides, it didn't have a "Jedi Knight 3: JA", just "JK:JA." Like an expansion pack, I like to think. So, as I said, it's just me being stubborn, I guess. BTW, like your avatar. Mine's cooler, though.

Vaelastraz Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Ok C'mon, JK:JA wasn't that bad. You have to ignore the weakas* story and concentrate on fighting. I still play Jk:JA multiplayer occasionally, and I can tell you, I'm good... (Duel only ofc) JK4, if at all, can only contiue the Darkside ending of Jk:JA... which is rather uninteresting. Jk:JO was way better.... I like your idea, but it would be necessary to play a Jedi. The question is, which jedi? An ordinary Jedi wouldn't do it... Perhaps you can play Malak! Doing jobs for Revan, fighting in the Mandalorian War. Your boss fight is against Revan, and no matter how hard you try, you get defeated and Revan cuts off your jaw! In order to still have a satisfying boss fight, you have to fight through 3 combat phases, when Revan's hp go down to a certain value, it goes on to next phase. Only when you make it through all phases, your life will be spared... Doesn't that sound like a nice game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC-1162 Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 i'll pass. i'd prefer JK4 to continue the actual series. if it has the tech-demo-style powers, all the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Char Ell Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Having a JK FPS set during the Old Republic times sounds good to me. Not sure how likely a possibility it is though. Seems like LEC will focus on making games to support LucasCo's live-action and animated TV series so I wonder if they'll have the bandwidth to make other games as well.

Maverick5770 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I'd prefer having a FPS Star Wars Mandalorian Wars Era game where you don't play as a bloody Jedi, doesn't anyone else get sick of playing as a jedi? Let me play as a Mandalorian or as a Republic soldier, with a Blaster Rifle and Genades, rather than a Lightsaber and the Force. Any one else for that one?

Char Ell Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 ^^^ Hmmm... So you're wanting a game that plays along the lines of Republic Commando but would be titled something like Mandalorian Mayhem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick5770 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Pretty much, but i was thinking more of the Call of Duty style, First Person, rather than Squad Based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totenkopf Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 I think that idea has promise, Maverick, especially if you actually get a choice to play it from either side. Might have made MOH and COD games even better if that option were available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaelastraz Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Hm, i don't like star wars FPS games where you play an ordinary soldier. I mean, that is exactly what battlefront is, and leaving Multiplayer (which isn't too good either) aside, it gets boring really fast. The cool thing about Jedi is, that they fight melee. And since almost 99% of all FPS are with ranged weapons, I like to play a jedi FPS.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
