Darth Avlectus Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I'd love something like that. I thought the ROTS game MP dueling was fun, and could have been great if there were lots more characters. Yeah like how MvC2 had, what, 50 characters? Of course if you know how to do sprite animations and have good software to assign some convincing and consistent hit detection, M.U.G.E.N. can pull off some 2-d wonders. Actually, yeah ROTS had a pretty decent fighting game and it was balanced and didn't make anyone too underpowered or overpowered. It's the transition from 2-d to 3-d that gets to be troublesome. IE one of the Street Fighter 3s seemed okay but I'm surprised how poorly received it was by some (in my area at least). Sure, anyone here knows I'm all about the retro era but I do like well done 3-d fighter games. Or combat sim-esque. SW could hold its own if it just had the right execution, sort of like the difference between twisted metals 3 & 4 vs TM Black. Doesn't need to have bells and whistles like the in depth customize-ability of smackdown for example. Just needs to be good. As for the ROTS game itself, hey it was what it was and it doubled as a fighter quite well IMO. Anyone familiar with playing MegaMan X4, 5, & 6 as Zero and a bit of KOF2004 and beyond could handle this without too much trouble. I liked it.
Lynk Former Posted September 9, 2011 Posted September 9, 2011 Don't worry, CAD... LucasArts will make a Star Wars game one day.
Astor Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Courtesy of Jae, it has emerged that LucasArts are now also hiring for the positions of Rendering Engineer, Level Designer and Environment Artist for a First Person Shooter.
Dread Advocate Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Republic Commando 2? Battlefront 3? Something new?
Ctrl Alt Del Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 The suggestions so far have all been to good for what it probably is in truth.
Astor Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 Oh, and in case you haven't heard, they're apparently looking for people to work on aerial combat games, as well.
Lynk Former Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 The sad thing is that even if they do suddenly announce another X-Wing, all of our expectations will be so high that no matter what we'll end up thinking the game is nowhere near as good as it should be.
Al_Ciao Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 As long as the open-world RPG is Star Wars, and I can play a Jedi/Sith, I don't care what else they make it. Of course, even that's not a given. As for FPS... I wonder if the Jedi Knight/Academy series is considered FPS? By the by... Lynk Former, I love your avatar!
DarthParametric Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 As long as the open-world RPG is Star Wars, and I can play a Jedi/Sith, I don't care what else they make it. That's what the Old Republic is for.
Astor Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 That's what the Old Republic is for. How does that stop them making a single player, open world Star Wars RPG?
Al_Ciao Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 That's what the Old Republic is for. Bah, I'm too broke to pay a monthly subscriptioni. How does that stop them making a single player, open world Star Wars RPG? Let's hope it doesn't.
DarthParametric Posted September 28, 2011 Posted September 28, 2011 How does that stop them making a single player, open world Star Wars RPG?The same way it stops them making Kotor 3.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 The same way it stops them making Kotor 3. It doesn't need to be on the Old Republic, although the prospect of messing with the canon of some other era is somewhat terrifying.
DarthParametric Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 It's independent of the OR era really. There is no reason they couldn't have made a single player K3 (in fact, arguably it would have made more sense to do so specifically as a lead in to TOR), they just don't want anything that people might play in preference to TOR. But on the subject of a non-OR era RPG, in that eventuality I would suggest LA would probably mandate a Clone Wars era title, as that's their thing atm.
Ctrl Alt Del Posted September 30, 2011 Posted September 30, 2011 Naw, you truthfully believe a single player RPG that probably won't see the light of day in a couple of years might hurt TOR sales? I could understand if it was set on the same timeline and then players popping up, legitimately upset that it "messes up with the persistent TOR universe's canon" but otherwise nothing of the sort.
DarthParametric Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 No, if you read what I said, I don't believe that at all. But I don't run LA. It has been demonstrated that they obviously believe some crazy stuff.
SkyKiller17 Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 I won't deny when I first heard this rumor I though Kotor 3 like most, but then dismissed it. But then I remembered something. Back when the MMO was first announced didn't BioWare say something about making some game for people who don't like MMO's, for the console??? Maybe this is Kotor 3 or maybe it's just another RPG set in a different time considering how popular the two titles became. Anyway, just something I remember I wanted to put out there. I'm curious to learn more about this project. Hopefully it won't be too long until we get some sort of clue...
Alexrd Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 If anything, it's that smuggler RPG concept they considered doing instead of The Force Unleashed.
Hassat Hunter Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 If they create KOTOR3 internally instead of giving it to BioWare or Obsidian (or CDProject? 0_0) there is no hope for it anyways. And I would definitely prefer it over TOR. More story, less grinding, more actually building your character rather than having 100 abilities, no MMO-combat but rather back to old D20. Hell yeah...
Alexrd Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 I think it's safe to say that it's obviously not KotOR III.
