griff38 Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 When Star Wars Galaxies comes out in the fall, I wonder how many will dump JKII and go to SWG. I can't make up my mind yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kstar__2 Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 i don't think we'll have to worry about SWG really, i think alot of us will exchange KOTOR for JKII, SWG is a really different game than JKII Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomHelix Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 nope, i wont. besides, SWG will have a monthly fee, which really sux.....i dont kno if i will even get it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Talliusc Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 i agree with phantomhelix. pay by the month is crap. and i will be boycotting it in hopes that lucasarts doesnt try to make more pay by the month games later. ill buy kotor but as for leaving jk2. it happens on wednesday for me. bounty hunter hits EB canada that day and while ill still post on the forums it wont be nearly as often and a fair bit of it may be in consoles stuff. cheers.

C'jais Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Is KOTOR soon coming out? I thought it was scheduled for 2003... Anyway, SWG: First I shell out 50$ on this game, then I have to pay each month that I play! Weeeeeeee! Can you feel my excitement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leXX Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 I will be buying KOTOR but I will not be buying SWG. No way I'm paying monthly to play a game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacco Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 I am torn between the two for a while now. Can't make my mind up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Boy Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 I'll probably play both. I still play SWGB on the Zone even though I play JKII more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Truthful Liar Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 KotoR is the Doom 3 of Jk2/Star Wars games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitedragon Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 like i would ever even think about tradeing in JK2 for anything but JK3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklighter Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 I will not be getting SWG. Simply because I cannot afford to continually pay for it - I have no means of paying every month, and a single game is not worth it, no matter how extravagant or massive it may turn out to be. I am only just getting back into JKII, so I hope you guys don't leave me too soon lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yom Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 i will mabey buy the game when the pay to play price gose down but i heard that it is what a mounth $20 a mouth. i am sory i need that for gas and s**t. so for now i will be stinkng to the normal JKII but hey if i can get a hacker in here to get rid of the whole pay to play then mabey. but i dout that will happen. but i will be geting Knights of the Old Republic. ohwwww i cant wait.

XERXES Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 my friend is beta testing SWG, the level of customization will blow you guys away. and seriously, being a jedi is going to be very hard, and requires dedication beyond what you would expect. They cant have 10,000 jedis running around claiming to be 1337 can they? same goes for bounty hunters....espically if you want mandiloran armor, have fun trying to find it...

lukeskywalker1 Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 If SWG has a monthly fee I won't get it I will NEVER stop playing JKII unless they make a JKIII which is better!! JKII ROCKS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatalStrike Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Pay the monster for one game now....and you will pay the monster for all games later. nuff said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 Since they are totally different style games I wouldn't dump JKII for SWG. I'll get KotoR when it comes out but I doubt I'll just dump JKII for that, I'll probly play them simultaniously. SWG WILL have a monthly fee, all MMOG's have one due to the heavy cost of runing a server farm and developing new content. 12 dollars a month (or whatever they are chargeing now) isn't a whole lot of money for their target audience. Games like EQ, AO, DAoC have been charging monthly fees for years and are doing quite well. All that being said, I tried AO and DaoC and quickly tired of thoes two games. MMOG seem very limiting to me since there is only so much you can do. Hunt for exp/items, build/trade items, chat, explore. While the developers continueously add new content, everything but the chatting becomes stale IMO rather quickly. After that happens your basically then paying 12 bucks a month for a glorified chat engine. MMOG's are incredibly addicting for some people, and for some they just arn't I'll pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Simpson Posted November 21, 2002 Share Posted November 21, 2002 I'd trade JKII for SWG in a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWhiteRaider Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 I still would play them both. The reason they have to charge for the game is to keep the servers up and to pay for the people that keep them running for a living. I would rather not pay, but I may find a way.

Hekx Posted November 22, 2002 Share Posted November 22, 2002 Eh, I'm sticking with JK2 and waiting for JK3 I'm only getting SWG if the graphics literally blow my socks off and my computer can handle it, which I doubt it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
