An SW MMO that has more storyline content than all of the previous Bioware titles plus expansions combined. OMG, Right on!
* Life is not black or white, it's shades of grey. But, at it's best/worst, it hints at 32bit color. -Me (a.k.a. RuthlessTimes)
* I do not need to know how to make a better game than you. I just need to know how to cancel my subscription. -Antarious(a slight misquote but the sentiment remains)
O...M...G!
This is awesome news!
lol title made me smile.
any game sounds great
March on! - Lets Invade Pekopon
Really exciting news! I can't wait to hear more about it.
Its not only reason I want and like to play MMOs but since it is BW it really may succeed in creating a dynamic story that players can affect. So, imo, many MMOs have claimed that feature but no one, again imo, has pulled it off. Usually it just takes the form on one or two "dev events" that add a little something to game be it a new area or loot. It seems like they are just progressing a story that is really already set in stone.
Like I said it’s not the only thing that sells me on MMOs and since it is BW I will be paying particularly close attention to this title. If anyone can make a story work in a game I think it is BW so maybe they will be ones to pull it off .
That’s just one factor of course with the main factor being how fun the gameplay is. Given their past games I bet this one will be fun.
GG SOE ...finally!
well I like the art style, stylised games are always harder to pull off than uncanny valley games, not realy read into it the screens look nice.
Ill look into it at work tomorrow.. give me something to do =D
Good now all the jedi wannbes will F**k off to KOTOR-MMO aka SWG2, and hopefully sony will roll back to PRE-CU and remove jedi's from the game and i can play the real star wars game it was originally ment to be like it was back in beta..
Well they are using the Hero Engine, from Heroe's Journey. So it will probably a management style game.
Press 1, 2, 3, 4 for hotkeyed powers etc. Rather than an active action style game like Spellborn, or DC Heroes, or Champions Online.
Given what they have shown the engine itself is very robust, and a lot can be done with it very quickly.
Still, this should be about a year or two out anyways.2010 or 2011.
Nothing to pay attention to currently in my view.
Count me in for a pre order.
Sounds great.
I'll reserve judgement for the release. Good first impressions, good to see they went to developers who actually no what they're doing to make this game. *gasp* I know; Sony blew the first one.
If they did this (roll back, remove Jedi) I would consider reinstalling SWG.
Awesome news so glad this can finally be talked about.
The first positive sign is that Bioware already is having zero Tollerence for SWG Vet Nerd Rage on their forums. Post about Sandbox or bashing SWG is a quick way to deletion/ban.
In your face $OE!

Great news--now we'll see if it's a great game. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them.
Apply lemon juice and candle flame here to reveal secret message.
finallyyy
Its called the Old Republic not KOTOR.... I wish people would quit calling it that...
if the mmo is anything like in looks and movement and charecter developement and stroyline like the games,. i will fall in love with this game.
The Sith shall rule !!!!!!
Aye, it's called The Old Republic, but it's based on KotOR, so they are technicaly right in calling it so
I Reject your Reality and Substitute it with My Own!
As for SWG NGE, stick a fork in it, it's done.
From the massive unprecedented story driven scope that they are talking about, this game will be groundbreaking in it's own right, just as Pre-CU was in what it tried to do.
This means probably more money invested than any pre-launch MMO ever.
No way in HELL LucasArts allows the SOE turd game to live one second past SWTOR's launch.
i hope LA shit cans SWG. that game needed to be destroyed a long time ago.
