lukeiamyourdad Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 I've been thinking... Not all viedogames last thru time and the few who are still popular to the older generation are getting ignore by the new one.What is gonna happen to SWGB in five years? Will it be forgotten? Will we forget it? We won't be posting here forever. When we won't have anything to say anymore we won't posting anymore. And we already have said a lot and discussed everything we know aboutthis video game. Is it gonna die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 1) It will be forever lost to the dark hallways of time. 2) Nah, it will be lived through by it's sequel(s) 3) Same as above:rolleyes: 4) Duh 5) Really? 6) Well, I won't say so, since it doesn't live in the first place, unlessumakearobotandstorethegameinit'sbrain,butthat wouldbecheatingsouwouldhavetogetittotakeoversomepoorhamsters'sbrainwhichsoundslikesomethingfromsherrorfilmbutit'sreality soyabetterbelievitfolks.Uask,howdoudothatandIsayuputamicrochipinthebrainbutsofarwedon'thavethetechtodothathgdiyentbistjevyjeytevjteebtejevej Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarthMaulUK Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 I think the future of SWGB is already judged - especially online. Scenarios, Scenarios, Scenarios ! Zone is full of them and they are ALL a waste of time. No thought has gone into any of them and in most cases the host gives themselves a nice advantage with higher attack/hit points. The zone rooms are full of arrogant children who set out not only to make the zone an awful place to be (by flooding, swearing and breaking most zone rules) then by attack those there to help - the Memberpluses. I started playing Medievil Total War - which has been given so many positive reviews and was (!) a great game until a major bug had been found where it crashes to the desktop. So the game has become less playable until they decide to bring out a patch to fix it..secondly, you can only play multiplayer online via gamespy - no thanks.

Sithmaster_821 Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 As soon as time separates players and the game, and other, newer, not yet ruined multiplayer-wise, come out. SWGB will shrivel up into the dark relms of histroy. DMUK, despite the aggrevations that ESO's invite system brings (its very hard to connect to people and most of your time is spent waiting for someone to invite you into their game), it eliminates the whole scenerios are taking all the rooms problem that killed SWGB. With the invite system, scenerio people can play with scenerio people and never have to bother RMers and DMers again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL ShadowJedi Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 DMUK not all scenarios arent thought through, I know mine are although people dont like low hp's and attack they like +20000 hp and +2000 attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 I am going to keep posting as long as I have ideas for the game or untill I get an official word from Lucasarts that there is not going to be an expansion pack or sequel ever. That would hurt my feelings and disappoint me but i guess that would be life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted September 9, 2002 Author Share Posted September 9, 2002 I think that some people on the zone are ok but most of them are simply can't seem to admit defeat(i hate that). thus the reason why i don't play online a lot. I do not believe that there won't be a SWGB 2 or some game that looks like it but with another name.... The only think I can be sure of is the popularity of SWGB will decrease over time(unless they make a second x-pac and then make SWGB 2). if it was me, i would release it by ep3 but we have to wait a long time and people will forget how SWGB was. The point with why people buy sequels(most of the time) is because the first game was good and they liked it. But if people forget then it will start out like SWGB and get popular only overtime...

Sithmaster_821 Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Yeah, people will only remember the negative things about the game, and transfer those feelings toward any sequel. Sequels only work if the gme is still going somewhat strong when the seqeul is released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted September 10, 2002 Author Share Posted September 10, 2002 Now today I have heard from DMUK that Garry Gaber(the game creator) is doing something else not related to SWGB...Does this mean that we won't have a sequel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 I heard the same thing from the same guy. Does he have connections to the guy who created the game? I hope he is not right. This game had alot of positive feedback in my opinion. I hope Star Wars RTS games don't end this year. Rebellion was not good. Everyone who likes the games seems to want an expansion pack or sequel. Why would they not make a sequel at least? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 Joe, hes the admin of the most popular SWGB site there is. He might be privy to other info we dont know. Also, i think Garry mentioned it somewhere on this thread or in an interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy_dog no.3 Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 Guys, there is still hope for u left. I know it is not related to SWGB, but that doesn't mean it's not Star Wars, or at the very leist a cool game. It means to me just not at Xpack or a sequel. Also, it's his current project not related to GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL ShadowJedi Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 well if there is no sequal in the coming year or 2 it will be the end of SW RTS and everyone will play first person games. Of course there would be the one or two people who will still play GB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shall be one of them! I am confident that someone else will make another SW RTS.... Not very but we must always keep hope.... It won't be as good but it will be something for us...... I'm just trying not to......not to..... :crybaby: ''sniff'', ''sniff'' it's ok.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sithmaster_821 Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 I hope they will to, just in case AoM's addiction wears off(I seriously suffer from AoM withdrawal, that game is a drug) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL ShadowJedi Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 I have an idea!!! we should flood LA with emails for a sequal, it could work...... I mean could you imagine having no SW RTS it will be Star Trek Galactic BattleGrounds ***SHUDDERS VIOLANTLY*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W0RF Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 Dungeon Siege is already stealing my attention, and I still play Unreal Tournament. Once UT2003 comes out you guys will almost certainly be seeing quite a bit less of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kryllith Posted September 13, 2002 Share Posted September 13, 2002 For those of us who spend a lot of time arguing about what might or might not (or should or should not) go into a potential SWGB2, I think it's necessary for people to understand what (apparently) goes on at LA during the course of making a game. Scott R. Kurtz apparently has some insight into it. Kryllith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joesdomain Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 I do realize it takes months of planning to make a game but this game and it's expansion pack are so cool. It is not the best game in the world because it does have it's faults like not being to scale, etc. I plan on playing this the rest of 2002 and maybe 2003. Hopefully a sequel or expansion pack will come as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukeiamyourdad Posted September 14, 2002 Author Share Posted September 14, 2002 The question now is not if there will be another sequel or SWGB2 but it is who will make it?LA of course but without Garry Gaber, who will take his place?And how will it be? Will it be as good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Vostok Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 I for one will play SWGB until another Star Wars RTS comes out. But lets be realistic. It would be idiocy for LucasArts to bring out another RTS before Episode III comes out. We've only really seen half a movie's worth of the Republic and the Confederacy, so I'm sure there's a whole lot of units we're yet to see. I think if another on is coming, it will come out around the same time as episode III, and definitely not before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Windu Posted September 22, 2002 Share Posted September 22, 2002 Trekkies are cool, LONG LIVE STAR TREK!!!!!!!!! Getting back to the subject i would find it rather unlikely that there will be an x-pac, and that a sequel would be released before ep3. Although i do hope there is a sequel...
