Boba Rhett Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Source Alternate Source The long and short of it is that LA fired some employees and the employees blabbed about their upcoming games which included the following: - MMORPG KOTOR 3 project with BioWare - Battlefront 3 - Another LEGO Indiana Jones - Previously mentioned Indiana Jones game being developed for multi platforms. - Star Wars Lightsaber game for the Nintendo Wii. I believe I speak for most everyone when I say *** ******, LucasArts. *** **** you straight to hell.

adamqd Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 BFIII cool, IJ meh, MMO... NO! The main thing about KotOR for me is the era and the RPG element, I love galaxies, but it's nothing compared to KotOR and if they give me KIII with 12 year olds using netspeak, naming themselves "bigone fok", and asking me to craft them mandalorian armor for free... I don't think I could take it
Gurges-Ahter Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I can't read the source - the site is blocked at my work. Would it be an MMORPG? I've never played an MMO game before - would it drastically change the KotOR series thus far?
JCarter426 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 It sounds fake to me. Everything except the MMO and Battlefront 3 have already been announced. Sounds to me like they took already confirmed stuff, tacked on those two, and called it a story.
Miles Edgeworth Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Sourced to something that's sourced to something that's sourced to something. Why didn't you get straight from the original source?
sekan Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I want KotOR 3 not a KotOR MMO! *Run in to a wall and cries*
mimartin Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 ...if they give me KIII with 12 year olds using netspeak, naming themselves "bigone fok", and asking me to craft them mandalorian armor for free... I don't think I could take it I’m not looking forward to 12,000 different forms of the name Revan walking around. Revan1744: “I b th true 1 Revan.” Revan151: “no me b true Revan” I’ll pass. *** ******[/i]' date=' LucasArts. [i']*** ****[/i] you straight to hell. Another disgruntled LucasArts fan?
Pho3nix Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I believe I speak for most everyone when I say *** ******, LucasArts. *** **** you straight to hell. QFT. Battlefront 3 wasn't a surprise though.
Shem Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 What will be interesting is seeing how LucasArts responds to this if they choose to respond at all.
Litofsky Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I believe I speak for most everyone when I say *** ******, LucasArts. *** **** you straight to hell. Completely. If KotOR is turned into an Online Game, the series will be completely ruined. Of course, it would be an interesting turn, but not for the better, in my opinion. I hope that this isn't true.
Achilles Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I’m not looking forward to 12,000 different forms of the name Revan walking around.Maybe we could provoke the 12,000 different form of "Exile" into starting a war with the Revans. Hmmm...
Boba Rhett Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 Keeping with tradition their response will be molded along the lines of the following, "In order to make Knights of the Old Republic III a full and engaging experience that would not limit gameplay to those select few fans lucky enough to own the $27,648 gaming rig that would surely be required to render the game as a single player rpg we have elected to take the game to a global community in the form of an MMO. We are so going to **** you and you're going to like it, KotOR fans. :wavey:" Okay, that's maybe not exactly how they would word it but it's close enough.
Chevron 7 locke Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Screw a KOTOR MMO The reasons we loved the RPG KOTOR games... 1.they were MODDABLE! we could add things! we could fool around with skins 2. We could create our own characters that were for our eyes only. they were special to us 3. There was no way little noobs could come up to us asking for free things or for money or for help 4.because RPG's rule! I will say it again SCREW A KOTOR MMO DIE DIE DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Arcesious Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Kotor 3 MMO!!!!??? Lucasarts; *Leaves in utter disgust*
Rachel_Ewok Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Yesss, I heard about his dumb KOTOR, Galaxies style game a loong time ago... In another forum not so far away. Yeah, I got my anger out there, I'm pretty upset.... I mean why waste time and money, when they could make an AMAZING KOTOR 3 game in the same vein of 1 & 2? And when... I don't think many people would buy into that... I certainly wouldn't buy it, Galaxies was okay... But I think it was overrated... We certainly don't need KOTOR to become overrated like that. And what if the programmers run out of time like our friends at Obsisdian? Then we'd have a bugged, terrible MMORGP!! @_@ Well 2 isn't terrible, but they should have fixed it... (Good thing we have that Team Gizka... ) STILL *BAD* idea. They should put their time and money into a beautiful, gorgeous, KOTOR 3 RPG... ^^
Gurges-Ahter Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 So let's pose the question this way: Would you rather have KotOR III MMO, or no KoTOR III at all? I imagine the popular response will be "not at all", but I'll take something over nothing.
Rachel_Ewok Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Ha, I just found this. Hopefully it'll lighten our sad moods. http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2006/03/29/ Oh and in response to the above comment: If they cannot make a KOTOR 3 RPG like 1 and 2, they might as well not make one at all.
Boba Rhett Posted June 6, 2008 Author Posted June 6, 2008 I refused a long time ago to ever pay monthly for a game and this will be no exception.
patient_zero Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My inner skeptic is out. Both linked sources lead to Kotaku, which only have this posted as a "Rumour" from an anonymous e-mailler. Or it could be the inner optimistist thinking "Oh God not a KotOR MMO". I prefer a game I can play at my own leisure. I don't have to worry about it costing me more the more I play it, so I'm gonna get far more replay out of a regular RPG where I can just put it in and play without having to worry about if it's "worth" topping up my subscription. Though admittedly a KotOR MMORPG -could- be good if it was a mythical "cool people only" MMO, but even then my relationship with MMOs in general is tenuous and best.
Arcesious Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 I refused a long time ago to ever pay monthly for a game and this will be no exception. I agree. Having to pay all that money that adds up to a huge crapload of money each year is total BS, a scam, and a ripoff. This raises the question- What does Mr.Lucas care about more? The incredible story of starwars, or the money? I have to say, I probably did overreact to this a bit, but it gets my point across; what I said in my other post in this thread.
Inyri Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Have you forgotten that not only do they have to pay a development team, but they also have to pay ridiculous amounts of money to upkeep the servers that are serving hundreds of thousands of players? A $15 monthly fee is not even close to unreasonable for a game like that -- if they didn't charge it they'd probably not be able to continue hosting the servers. I won't pay $15 a month to play a game, but certainly not because I think it's unreasonable. I just don't feel like I would get $15 worth of fun each month out of a game that's going to cause me nothing but frustrations because (a) it won't have a plot, and (b) it will be full of a bunch of 11 year olds named something like Darth Joey hitting on my character because it has eBoobs.
Jason Skywalker Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Rickroll? I'll wait for LucasArts official statement.
