1. There is no SW MMO in the works with Bioware....
It's possible that Bioware wants to do something original when breaking into the MMO genre. This leaves no questions in regards to having complete creative control over what they produce. This is not to say that there isn't another Star Wars MMO in the works, just not with Bioware; at this time.
2. LA and Bioware have joined hands to produce something "else"...
While Star Wars is their more popular IP, LA does have a number of other works. One of which became a hit, had a bit of a following, and had a promised sequals that didn't make gold. Said title had two failed attempts at sequals. The title I speak of is Full Throttle.
While most of the folks who were involved with the original project are gone from LA, this could have been enough motivation for them to tap Bioware; who have been quite successful with LA's previous works, KOTOR 1 and 2 respectively.
This would have been an ideal project for Bioware to tell a deep and entertaining story with a proven succesful IP while having a substantial amount of creative wiggle room due to the lack of backstory and history.
At the same time this gives LA a chance to help put out a long desired sequal. To add to this, current titles and soon to be titles are showing a trend of reviving and continuing older titles i.e. Starcraft (98), Diablo series (97), Fable (96), and C&C (95). Full Throttle Originally debuted in 1995.
Just a thought.

lol at full throttle.
And fable was released in like 2004 where did you get a 96 release date.
Dude, are you for real? You actually still think there is a possibility of no Star Wars MMO coming out of LucasArts and BioWare? Where have you been the last few days?
He's talking about the PC adventure game Fable, released in 1996. Look it up.
At an interview some head guy from LA hinted big time that it will be a start wars mmo, can't remember where i saw that but it looks like 90% start wars, so it has to be star wars, people are waiting for it it will be uber hypped, it will have massive numbers at launch, it just makes sense doesn't it?

I think Bioware would have denied it by now.. don't you think?
Waiting for Fallen Earth, World of Darkness, Old Republic, FFXIV
Dunno...BioWare also denied that they would make MassEffect for PC...up until ONE day before MassEffect for PC was officially announced. So even IF they denied it...that wouldn#t be saying much.
