Read it and wheep fanboys.. Bioware is working on a mmo indeed however it is not KOTOR.
Comments
We're going to see alot of people lining up on the bridge.
I read somewhere that there wont be KOTOR mmo, but they are working on KOTOR 3 single player or something like that. Not sure where i read it so no link sorry =/.
It's based on the upcoming live action show between Ep3 and 4 and is going to have a TV tie in. It's going be the biggest thing ever. GL isn't interested in KOTOR, he wants to expand on his own storries. So no, it's not KOTOR, yes it is Star Wars related.
"So where does BioWare stand in all of this? We know there's a new MMO on the way, and that both EA and LucasArts have acknowledged this publicly, but there's no definite answer on whether or not we'll see KOTOR's return in the future. In contacting LucasArts about its works with BioWare, and the possibility of a future KOTOR product, the company stated that, "Yes, we are working with BioWare. We've announced that we're working with the developer on a project, but it has nothing to do with Knights of the Old Republic."
-- Doesn't say it's not Star Wars related, says it's not KOTOR related. With the Clone Wars TV shows coming, theatrical release for the Clone Wars animated movie also, I really wouldn't be surprised it the MMORPG is a tie in.
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
It very well could be a Star Wars title however it is not KOTOR.. Basing it in any timeline during the movies is a stupid move they have already made.
What else could they be making ?! Its either or.

Willow?
If anything they will improve upon the proven formula, starting out as just an adverage joe in the galaxy, and making a name for yourself. The first SW MMO worked, but there just wasn't enough to keep people around.
And it is spelled "weep".
I came here to make this post... Jincenz (sp?) and I have been yelling this at all of you for a couple of months.
TOLD YOU SO.
/that is all.
And it is spelled "weep".

I don't think anyone here cares, as long as it's Star Wars. /shrug Most fans prefer the timeline of the original trillogy.
I've always said the MMO is Harry Potter...not KOTOR.
p.s. It's Harry Potter
Looking forward to seeing you at Hogwart's MC LOL!
..um...I've always said the MMO is Harry Potter...not KOTOR.
p.s. It's Harry Potter
now that would suck
"If we don't attack them, they will attack us first. So we'd better retaliate before they have a chance to strike"

Would like to buy you a brew, Ted.
Thank you. =DThe funny thing is I've never even played SWG or KOTR, but I just think it's a little out of hand for these posts to pop up every single day over and over. Why people care so much that fans were hoping for a KOTR mmo is beyond me. I mean hell, I'm a fan of Star Wars, and I think the IP could make for an insane MMO so why were people so against it? Especially with what SWG became, why not get excited for an actual GOOD star wars MMO?
With that out of the way, even though the average reading ability of many people on the internet is sub-middle school so this post will be taken as saying something it isn't. I believe IGN is so desperate for "news" that they themselves jump the gun.
"Yes, we are working with BioWare. We've announced that we're working with the developer on a project, but it has nothing to do with Knights of the Old Republic."
Nothing in that statement has ass to do with the MMO. This is the EXACT same statement that Lucas released shortly after the announcement of working with Bioware again, nearly a year (maybe two) since BioWare announced they were working on an MMO. "A project" does NOT = MMO.
ffs diaf already.

um...
Since LucasArts owns KOTOR...and they're not working with Bioware on it...
it's not KOTOR...

I totally see where you're coming from Sev... but realize they have to choose their words carefully right now while they're keeping up the secret. Thus, 'No Not Kotor', and not 'No Not Star Wars'. Of course that doesn't prove a single thing, but I'm just saying if it WERE Star Wars related but I couldn't say it, that's exactly how I would reply to the question of 'Is it KOTOR?', instead of saying 'Nope, not Star Wars at all.'

He's saying that the LA/Bioware project doesn't automatically mean the BioWare MMO. In my opinion they are two completely seperate things Bioware is working on.
The only one who said LA confirms the MMO is IGN. The statement severius quotes from the article merely says that the "project" LA is working on with Bioware isn't KOTOR. Thats it. I'm kind of surprised the IGN interviewer didn't ask flat out "Are you working on a MMO with Bioware?". It would save alot of speculation.
"If we don't attack them, they will attack us first. So we'd better retaliate before they have a chance to strike"
DeaconX, might wanna change that sig again.

Oh, I understand what he's saying. But for his statement to be true, it would mean that Bioware is working on a KOTOR MMO...without the owner of KOTOR.
that ain't gonna happen.
REALLY??? We're quoting some guy who lives in Huntsville, Alabama and posts on the RLMMO forums as authority???
wow.
