Darth InSidious Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 KotOR 3 as an MMO will mean blood. LA's blood, leaking onto the floor in great puddles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallucination Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'd like to take this opportunity to say that the nerd rage in this thread makes me lawl. Just like announcement of a KOTOR MMO would. Also, I don't trust the first source, and the second one is even less trustworthy on the matter because it cites the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Skywalker Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 LA would be better off just doing a Galaxies II than making K3 an MMO, assuming THIS is true. K3 = MMO? No. KOTOR time MMO? Nice idea but wouldn't play lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyri Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 LA would be better off just doing a Galaxies II than making K3 an MMOWhat do you think a K3 MMO would be? I'm still not convinced, personally. It's failsauce any way you slice it, though, so I can't bring myself to care too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerbieZ Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Until i hear confirmation of each of these games individually, i refuse to form an opinion. It is still all rumours at the moment no matter what anyone says and we are already getting worked up about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltiades Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Also, I don't trust the first source, and the second one is even less trustworthy on the matter because it cites the first. This is the original source, and they're throwing with rumors. I don't believe it until LA confirms it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Skywalker Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Just because it's called Galaxies doesn't mean it has multiple galaxies, ya' know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnderWiggin Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 But even if it is a rumor.... It's been the widespread opinion of fans that this Austin MMORPG would be in the KOTOR era for a while. I would get it to try it out, but would quickly stop paying the monthly fee. No mods to keep my interest. _EW_ I mean, we've known about the MMO for years.

Rev7 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I believe I speak for most everyone when I say *** ******, LucasArts. *** **** you straight to hell. QFE. I am sorry but that really stinks. No KotOR III for me. I would never pay to play and MMO, and I never will. I would rather buy the game once. I don't think that a KotOR III MMO will work. I think that it is a bad idea. Anyways, you captured my my thoughts...sorta.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I like how I'm the only person that ingores other people that speak in game. MMO's are easy, if you want to pretend it's single-player, you can. Just don't interact with other players. Plus, not every MMO is like WoW. What does Mr.Lucas care about more? George Lucas doesn't actively run LucasArts, welcome to 1991 You all should probably get off your high-horses and smell reality. It can be quite refreshing.

Inyri Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hard to ignore it when you can't turn it off in many games. Guild Wars is nice in that you can shut off any branch of the chat you don't want to see/read. Plus it's instanced, so no need to interact with the sillies at all if you don't want to. However I don't suspect any LA MMO would be 'nice' like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonathan7 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 You all should probably get off your high-horses and smell reality. It can be quite refreshing. The air is fresher on my high-horse as I'm higher up. To be honest if I had a choice of no KotOR 3 and a KotOR MMO, I would choose the latter, I could be tempted into online gaming, but play it single player style...

Char Ell Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 *** sigh *** Shades of 2004 "reboot" at LucasArts. Here we go again. 2004 May - Jim Ward assumes helm at LucasArts 2004 August - Mr. Ward initiates a round of layoffs at LucasArts later referring to the event as a "reboot" of the company. 2004 November - Jim Ward: we're going to focus on internal development (paraphrase) 2008 February - Jim Ward leaves LucasArts 2008 April - Darrell Rodriguez takes over as LucasArts' president 2008 June - another round of layoffs. LucasArts now apparently positioning itself to rely more on external development. Round and round we go. Things sound like they are a real mess over at LucasArts right now. As far as BioWare making a KotOR MMORPG goes, I'm interested. I've never played an MMORPG and BioWare seems like they'll be taking a more story-driven approach. Of course I would prefer a SPRPG but if that isn't going to happen then I may just decide to give a KotOR MMORPG a whirl. EDIT: Also noticed on LucasArts' exec page that not only is Peter Hirschmann no longer listed but neither is the VP of Production Services, Atsuko Matsumoto. In any case, Mr. Rodriguez seems to have totally gutted LucasArts' production staff so it will be interesting to see if he hires any replacements or if he is indeed positioning LA to exclusively use third party developers.

Arcesious Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 A lot of potential, yes, but for those who are true KOTOR starwars gamers, it will be a waste of time to them. I will not pay a couple hundred a year for a game. It is not worth it, not with the idiots that would go play on it, not with the lag I'd get on it, and not with the stupid monthly payments. Actually, with my crappy computer, it's out of the question for now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shem Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 MMORPG KOTOR 3 project with BioWareDid anybody get the impression that the MMO and RPG part of this are two separate things? A couple of my brothers and three of my nephews each have an Xbox360 and they have games they play online through Xbox Live and it also have either an adventure game or a role playing game too. I'm betting this could be the case and it's going to be an Xbox360 only release if this is true. Whey is everybody getting mad and assuming this is already going to be a PC only release like Star Wars Galaxies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace MacLeod Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Will wait for official word from LA before mourning KotOR 3. I'm sure there's a market for a KotOR MMO, but the fact of the matter is they're going to leave the story began in the series to the vagaries of a fan/opinion poll hell rather than finishing the trilogy they began with such promise. That's the one big flaw in the KotOR 3 as MMO idea; an MMO has to keep some semblance of a story arc going for people to actually keep playing and paying, and that leaves the people who bought, played and became fans of the first two without closure in the whole Revan/Exile storyline. After the halfass non-finished ending to TSL, is just seems like an extra slap in the face. KotOR 3 <> MMORPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Skywalker Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Whey is everybody getting mad and assuming this is already going to be a PC only release like Star Wars Galaxies? Who said it was going to be a PC only release? And why would it bother anyone? Anyways, yeah, it could be an RPG with single and multiplayer mode.

leXX Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I just want to say that when I was playing WoW, it SAVED me a lot of money. I was buying at least £60 worth of games a month to cure by boredom, as oppose to paying £8 a month playing one game only. As for this KotOR MMO, I'll wait for official word.
