ImpElite Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I think so, the end of the campaign certainly hints to one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsparkle Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Yes, because we still need Lando Calrissian, Leia, that general from ROTJ (I had him as an action figure but can't remember his name) and I'm sure there's a few imperial characters that can be added.

Darth_Extas Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I would say yes, I think it will go prequel however... In order to stay with the areas they keep hitting, it will be prequel. Although either way, another one is need to further enhance the gameplay and characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge2211 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I think there's a lot of room for expansion in the Empire at War universe, especially with the turn towards more story-driven elements rather than "sandbox" elements that we saw in Forces of Corruption. Given the ending cinematic of FoC, though, I doubt it will "go prequel..." and that would be less dramatically interesting, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoiuyWired Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Nefinitely need more expansion I don't know, but the FoC story seems unfinished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukeiamyourdad Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I think if a sequel was to be made, it should shift its focus mainly on SP and I'm not talking about just a cinematic campaign. Diplomacy a more management should be included to add an extra layer of depth. Switch to a pure Risk-style turn-based system. I never enjoyed the one we have now. Perhaps allow formations to have a bigger impact, but surely with a prequel about the Republic vs. the CIS, ground combat will be much better. (My opinions, not facts, my opinions.)

wedge2211 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I think there's absolutely nothing wrong with a real-time system (and I'd have more fun that way, speaking personally)...but if any strategic depth is added, the galactic timescale would have to be stretched out a bit. If there's more to keep track of, there's got to be more time to react. That would be just as effective as implementing a dated turn-based engine.

mrsparkle Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Similar to Rome: Total War then. I don't think EAW will ever be like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrawn Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I agree, a sequel should have the added features of more diplomatic options and the like. More elements from Rebellion couldn't be bad, because of the excellent RTS components already present in the game that would be suitable for the tactical layer.

Jeff Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I'd like to see something else made connecting to EaW or FoC but whether it's just another expansion or a whole new game I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Mmmm turn-based system could be an option, really. I would just love to ambush an incoming enemy fleet. Also, if they're going to do another one, do it without as many bugs as possible. And I hope they take their time doing this one; I wont buy expansions forever, mind you.

HK-42 Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 yes but i think it should be a clone wars one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMuffin Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 If there's to be another expansion, I would love for it to be set in the prequel era too. There's a lot of material there, and it's silly for them to create more and more non-movie stuff. I haven't played FoC though; so I don't know about the ending.

Titanius Anglesmith Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Absolutely yes, there should be another. Two specific ones that I'd like to see is one set in the Clone Wars era and another set in the Old Republic era (perhaps the Mandalorian War?)

ImpElite Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 I, personally would love to see a Yuuzhan Vong Expansion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedge2211 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Sorry, but the Clone Wars were the biggest letdown in cinematic history. They should have just been left to myth, to the references Ben Kenobi makes that made them seem much bigger than they turned out to be. Why? Because there was never any suspense to them at all. Not only did we all know what would happen thanks to the fact that they took place in the prequel era, but there is no room in them for any of the "what if" scenarios that made Empire at War fun. What would have happened if the Separatists had won? The same exact thing. Palpatine would have come to power as Emperor, since, after all, he was running both sides of the war and ended it whenever he felt like. Aside from that, the prequel era really does not lend itself to the RTS genre. The intrigue (if you can call it that) of that period is more suited to RPG games. A prequel-era RTS would be like saying, "hey, let's have WarCraft be set in the French Revolution!" We all know what happens on a grand scale in the prequel era. What we don't know, where there is room for storytelling, are individual characters' stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavkov Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 YES! they should move forward to either Thrawn era or Yuzhan Vong era! that would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0rdReV@n88 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 my vote is for thrawn and vong era and a prequel era of the mandalorian wars that would be nice since kotor was so fun but left the mandalorian wars to just being spoken about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relenzo2 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Don't make us buy an expansion pack with much less than the original game (obviously) for the SAME PRICE!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Unfortunately, there is nothing else planned for EaW. However, I have been hearing mutterings of a Civilisation based Star Wars game - but when and importantly IF this happens, is anyone's guess. I for one, who love to see a hard core Star Wars RTS come out, along the lines of Rebellion/Supremacy, which was truely incredible! DMUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Extas Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Agreed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMuffin Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I also support DMUK's idea But that's never going to happen. Rebellion was way too hardcore for the average gamer, which resulted in rather poor reviews. And it's all about the average gamer. These are the people who buy the game in largest quantities, and thus are the target audience. I don't think that LucasArts has the talent and experience to muster a game that could cater to both average and hardcore players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLONECOMMANDER501 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 It looks like LucasArts has to make there three new games good ones or they will be out the door faster than a barbarian army on Roman territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
