News Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 According to ZAM.com readers at least. SWTOR was voted the most anticipated MMO at a solid 39.6%. Not that this comes as a surprise to anyone as SWTOR has been highly publicized especially with EA’s and LucasArts’ comments about being as big or bigger than WoW. Other MMOs that readers voted for [...] Read the full story at starwarsmmo.net...
Miltiades Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Not to anyone's surprise, I'd guess. SWTOR is backed by a killer IP, which in turn gets it a lot of publicity. BioWare does a lot to keep it that way. The KotOR games being a huge hit must raise the hopes as well.
SW01 Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 Certainly, it is the MMO I am most looking forward too. Of course, it helps that I'm only aware of two - SWTOR and Star Trek Online!
Swanea Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 While I am happy that a game/company wants to stand up to the giant that is WoW, I would wonder if much of anything could. There are very few IPs/Games/Storys that can touch Warcraft right now. There are over 6 million asian players in wow. I know Star Wars is huge everywhere,people of all ages, but...That is a ton of people. And to compare or beat a game like wow, they will need to be similar to WoW, yet better (Most likely). Yes, they could try a new direction, like many games that came out recently and have 200,000 people or so. Super Casual friendly, Easy to understand gear upgrades/easy ability to get them, Graphics that can run on older computers, an easy to use chat/UI/Menu/Website. Anyways, blah blah blah I know. I do hope they can put a large dent, if not remove WoW from the top. But it is going to take some work.
CommanderQ Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I smell a Lucasforums poll in the future. No, no, this is a Star Wars place......you sense a poll in the future:D
