    Man 66 pages and we are no closer today then we were 8 months ago...lmao.

     

    Whatever comes of it you have to admit they sure as hell are getting a lot of attention for something no one knows anything about.

     

    Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there,
    80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters.
    Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior,
    and he will bring the others home.

    Yeah to be honest I kind of stopped updating it on purpose because everything is just such a minor 'rumor' ... the next post I wanted to put in this thread, I wanted to be 100% FACT rather than any % rumor but whether it's a contractual issue or whatever, they're really not saying anything... E3 maybe... : but as I said elsewhere I know for a fact BioWare will be concentrating on pushing Dragon Age next.  Maybe around christmas we'll get something lol.

    Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one.

    BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.

    That's CRYPTIC, not BioWare so... I'm not sure how you're trying to tie BioWare to STO... this thread is still the silent heavyweight holder of the 'secret' BioWare MMORPG.... which won't be STO.

    LucasFilm Registers Trademark for “Star Wars The Old Republic” Online Game !!!

    On July 3rd, 2008, LucasFilm filed for trademarks for the following:

    • Star Wars The Old Republic
    • Star Wars Sagas
    • Star Wars Legends

    The trademarks have been registered for “Entertainment services provided on-line by means of global and local area networks, namely, providing interactive computer game software, interactive video game software and interactive computer games and interactive video games, all on-line by means of global and local area networks”

    You can view a screenshot of the trademark for “Star Wars the Old Republic” here. It is important to note that these trademarks were registered in the same way as the trademark for “Star Wars Galaxies”. These are officially registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. It appears that at least one of these titles may be used to create a new online Star Wars game. “The Old Republic” title makes me think about that KOTOR MMO everyone’s been talking about.

    Credit for the screenshot and discovery of “The Old Republic” title goes to the website StarWarsUniverse.com

    I feel ya man.  Finally some exciting news.

    I love all the possible titles but 'The Old Republic' is my fave for sure.  I'm glad it's now 'Knights of the Old Republic' so it's not saying that the Jedi Knights are the focus - and why should they be? Yes Jedi/Sith are cool and awesome and they are the popular kids of Star Wars, but there's just SO MUCH MORE in the universe to be and play as - The Old Republic is a rich setting full of turbulant wars which echo throughout the entire galaxy allowing for a LOT of creative freedom.

    Go Go BioWare MMO

  • ElRenmazuoElRenmazuo Member RarePosts: 5,361

    its not going to be old rep, its going to be an mmo of star wars masters of teras kasi with its original graphics.

  • FagamusPrimeFagamusPrime Member Posts: 21

    This is by far the most amazing piece of detective work I've ever seen on an internet forum. haha.

     

    BRAVO BRAVO!

    And I can't wait to see the game :)

    EA Confrence Time at E3 is Today at 3PM Pacific. I don't know how long it runs but I'm guessing it ends at 8PM because that is when the Gears of Wars Reception. SO I guess we will have to pray during those 5 hours that BioWare shows or tells us about the mmo. If they don't, we will just have to wait for another expo. Lets just hope that they announce there mmo here since E3 is the biggest expo.

    But my bet is is for next year that they announce it.

     

    For the E3 schedule:

    I've pointed this out before, and it still hasn't been corrected. The information in the OP concerning Lucas Arts and Bioware working on an MMORPG together is wrong. The announcement doesn't say anything about the two working on a MMORPG or even an online game together at all. All that is said is that they are working on "a game" together.

    Why is the OP refusing to fix this flaw in his post. The misinformation gives me the feeling that this thread isn't reliable for a focal point of information.

    MMORPG's w/ Max level characters: DAoC, SWG, & WoW

    Currently Playing: WAR
    Preferred Playstyle: Roleplay/adventurous, in a sandbox game.

    You apparently completely missed a paragraphs worth of reading in my disclaimer:

    "This thread was created to gather all available information regarding the BioWare MMORPG currently in development. We are looking for any and all information. Speculation is inevitable, but if we must let’s try to be as informed as possible. Please feel free to help add or correct any information presented and remember to take everything with a grain of salt ;) "

    The building circumstantial evidence would tilt SPECULATION towards a link between BioWare's MMORPG and Star Wars and thus LucasArts - however that must be taken 'with a grain of salt' meaning don't take it for a fact.

    If suddenly we found out that BioWare had somehow been talking to JK ROWLING [Harry Potter author, sorry if I got her name wrong...] for years then that would be another piece of speculation to add, but so far the 'Star Wars' speculation by far outweighs anything else NOT just because there is a huge public demand for it but if you look at the first page of posts, there's just a ton of little facts that could easily point to the IP.

    I didn't miss that paragraph. Even in your paragraph, you say we should be informed as possible; looking for any and all information; and to feel free to add or "correct" information.

    So you are contradicting yourself in the high lighted paragraph, when you don't correct your mistype above the link to the article, because I informed you of the mistake and by the above paragraph, you fix any mistakes pointed out.

    So don't pin this on me; like I didn't read the paragraph, when I did. You apparently didn't remember what you wrote in that paragraph, aside from the "grain of salt" thing.

    I posted about the inaccuracy last year in this thread. This thread popped up on the popullar threads and I noticed it was still not changed. That is the only reason I posted again on this thread, because by that paragraph, you want people to tell you when something is incorrect. Well, I did and you didn't fix it.

    I'm sorry could you point out where exactly I state that it is a FACT that BioWare/LucasArts are working together on an MMORPG? I'm pretty sure everyone is quite aware that their 'mystery partnership' being BioWare's secret MMORPG is just speculation... I thought it was pretty obvious but perhaps I missed.  Feel free to copy/paste the area where I declare it a fact - thanks.

    Wrong. BioWare is due to Debut a game tomorrow, 17th. Not saying this will be their MMO, but it stands to reason it is, since DragonAge has been revealed for a while now and a Debut is something -new-.

     

    Wait and see.

    Where did you get the info. Give us a link. If there is a debut, My bet is on Mass Effect 2 or The Bioware/Lucasarts Star Wars Project.

    Tehy're developing 2 MMOs at the same time? Their resources must be a lot more than I thought.

    Isn't this the one and only MMO project they're working on?
