The thing is. Warcraft, starcraft, etc. have had included multiplayer at least. Most if not all Bioware games have be exclusively singleplayer. Blizzard had practice at maintaining an online game. The majority (excluding this new lead designer) of Bioware have not.

Bill Dalton and Gordon Walton ring any bells? You don't stay up on your MMORPG knowledge very well do you?
not gonna happen. Mass Effect just came out. Once Mass Effect has a bigger following, maybe. KOTOR and Star Wars in general already has big following. Which is why there's a higher probability of it being a Star Wars MMO based on the KOTOR timeline.

Thats a laughable reason for it not to be ME.An MMO would be a great way for people to get to know the world of ME.Its also a great way to keep people hooked to the world of ME after they finish the great SP game.
I would love it to be a Mass Effect mmo also, but i wouldnt mind Star Wars if it turns out to be that.
The reason I want mass effect more then SW is because its a whole new galaxy to explore and best of all its are own milky way. But if its mass effect I hope they do put some melee as well as long range gun fighting.

No, it's sensible business reasoning. One of the reasons why WoW is so big is because it has a huge following from it's previous games. Mass Effect JUST came out. KOTOR has a decent following, and Star Wars in general currently does have a bigger following. Where do you think the money men are going to be betting? on a game that just came out? or on one that has been around for a while and still has an appeal? Now, YOU may want a ME MMO badly (and I can't fault you because the game does look awesome, I'm waiting for it to come out on PC so I can finally play it) However, YOU don't get to decide what it will be, and in fact if you look at a lot of the evidence that has been presented ever since 2005, there's a higher probability that it will be a KOTOR MMO. If I'm right and it is an SW MMO, it won't be because of us, but because of the business men who said it made good business sense to release an MMO of a popular ID... with emphasis being that it will be done by a more competent company (Bioware as opposed to SOE).
If you still think my reasoning is laughable. I invite you to read a post by DeaconX that compiled a ton of evidence, interviews as well as rumors of what Bioware's MMO will be, then you be the judge.
Everyone thinks it is going to be a SW mmo because SWG is greatly declining and Bioware has a deal with Lucas Arts on something. I think it would be great if Bioware did a SW mmo but don't rule out a NWN MMO by any means. NWN was just as popular if not more popular than Kotor. Just wish they would announce it already.

Oh, I wasn't ruling out that possibility, and no offense or anything, but I honestly hope you're wrong with NWN, not because it wasn't a good game. But because I'm honestly sick and tired of fantasy MMO's, I want a good MMO set in a sci fi setting and nothing out there is good. I've been told EVE is great, but I don't like the idea of JUST being on a space ship. Which was one of the perks of SWG, you could play on land as well as space.

None taken, either way whatever Bioware has up their sleeves is going to be a very good game.
Nah its just because everyone that likes KOTOR needs a KOTOR3 to explain the broken non-ending of KOTOR2. Heh.
Anyway, yeah its funny how they keep trotting out what widgets they're going to stick in it with out mentioning what it is. "Our MMO is going to be... involving some audio technology!" One of our number should disguise himself as an elk and go into the frosty Canadian north to ferret out this secret.

Looks kinda like that divergence online vaporware game. The one that made up some fake Photoshopped screenshots from a game engine website to get their game listed on MMORPG.com, until another poster here called them out which lead to MMORPG.com removing it and apologizing to the community over the false listing. It was big hoopla and they all left in anger vowing never to have any association with MMORPG.com again.
