Robbiesan Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Does anyone know if Lucasarts plans to make a PC game of Ep2? I see they have announced a Gameboy Ep2 game.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Qui-Gon Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 I don't think so. Too bad too because the Episode I game was cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Yes they are, it's gonna be crap called Clone Wars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbiesan Posted May 31, 2002 Author Share Posted May 31, 2002 I hope they make one for Ep2.. I can't see them not doing so, but who knows... I enjoyed Ep1 as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewok Hunter Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 there's a expansion for glactic battlegrounds that is called clone campaigns if that is what you mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDiesal Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 There will be no game for PC strictly following the plot of Episode II, I don't think... only supposed to be two complete new games any time soon... Knights of the Old Republic and one other... can't remember at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Clone Wars (I saw the trailer, the game is a joke), Knights of the old Republic (I'm buying that), and the SWG which is actually EverQuest in SW universe. I'm simply not buying it because I gotta surbscribe to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDiesal Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Oh yeah, but that won't be out for a while. And for all your infos, that game is Star Wars Galaxies and is not EverQuest... the engine is much enhanced... in fact, if you saw any of the vidoes from it at E3, it looks incredible. When it comes right down to it, where else will you be able to get online with 10,000 other people and flaunt your Jedi powers? Where else can you go on quests to build a lightsaber and then fall to the Dark Side while your friends around you try to stop you? For that matter, where else can you build landspeeders from scratch and race them against other (real) people? It's gonna be a niiiice game.

BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Yeah, yeah I know what you read from the http://www.starwarsgalaxies.com faq, but still it's EverQuest/games like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDiesal Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 There's a FAQ? Well damn. All I've seen was the E3 presentation, hehe. And not all MMORPGs are the same. That's like saying Jedi Outcast is actually "DOOM in the Star Wars Universe." There are many more differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Base is what counts. And base is EverQuest.....no reason to deny it, it's not like I mean something bad with it, it's just not my type...and very poor performance of not knowing about the faq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 And well, JK2, in base is actually Doom. Only the advanced one, which is Quake. Quake3.9 actually. Add lightsabers and some engine modifications and you got JK2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDiesal Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 No no, you can't break it down that far. You could just go and say ever game is basically Pong... I mean really... Pong was basically Janitor Joe... which was a game about a little stick man jumping around trying to enter doors. Same graphical level, same general concept... moving around in a black and white environment in order to score points... Donkey Kong (the original) was basically Janitor Joe with color... same basic idea, avoiding little round objects and get to the top of the area... Wolfenstein was basically just adding guns to Donkey Kong and turning the world upright... it was still 2D... Doom was basically Wolfenstein with a third dimension to move in. Quake was basically Doom with better graphics. Quake III is basically Quake with better graphics. Jedi Outcast is basically Quake III with a lightsaber. So in summary, by your reasoning, EVERY GAME EVER MADE IS BASICALLY PONG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Didn't I say that? And yeah, I forgot about Wolf...JK2=Wolf actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDove Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 And pong was a piece of arcade crap. When we got the definitions such as FPS, RPG, etc. thats when we started counting. Unless you're a moron of course...O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthHitts Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 If you read the faq on SWG it says half the designers of the game are from everquest...so i have to go with SWG as a hypercharged everquest....but if you ever played everquest you would realize it is a kickin' game and this SWG game looks to blow it out of the water......P.S. Screw the jedi bit in SWG..everyone will be try to be a jedi or a bounty hunter...im gonna bu a bar owner..I.E. Mos Eissley(spelling)wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mos Eissley(spelling)wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D Well if you believe what they are saying in the SW Galaxies section of the Lucasforums, being a Jedi will be one step beneath impossible. You'll have to be Force attuned of course, and that will be few and far between for most characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebelwerfer_ Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I've played clone campaigns... It's pretty good, if you like RTS's, and the episode II stuff is a nice change in game content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obi Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 All I can say is that it would only seem fair to have about 2.8 billion different star wars Episode II-based games, because they had about that many for episode I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDiesal Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 All you need is Galaxies. And to the others, it's very much not EverQuest in that it's basically a new engine... no loading screens whatsoever... unbelievably impressive dynamic lighting... completely different skill tree and experience system... The only thing that really links the two directly is that they are both by Sony... but Sony also aided SquareSoft in making Final Fantasy VIII and I doubt you would say EQ and FF8 are all that similar. My only regret about it is that I basically need a new computer to run the damn thing... and my system is only a PIII-800 with a GeForce2... kinda sad that that'll already be "outdated" by December. Eh, so it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exar Kun II Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Galaxies will be worth the wait from what I've seen, though with most MMORPG, it will probably limp out of the gate, unless Lucasarts is really prepared for the influx of traffic. Knights of the Old Republic in 2003 looks to be a definite must-have as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
