I heard Visceral is working on an open world SW game. Does not sound like an mmo, but who knows?

On topic, Visceral is a great studio, looking forward to seeing what they create. I'm hoping we see a lot more good Star Wars games in the future from a variety of studios.
Might be this getting revived
as for the open world SWG, i'll be eager to see what its like in X years when it comes out. by then though ill be playing camelot unchained. tho the new star wars movies should be out by then i think
Visceral and at least one other,likely several collaborations making the game.
Using the Frostbite 3 engine.I have never played any of the Battlefield games to know if the engine and developer are any good.
A division of EA ,so they have the money but they will put tons of pressure to rush the game out.I am not sure it has even been 2 full years yet,that would be about the limit EA would wait.
Seeing how everything that series and team makes is kind of the same focusing on multiplayer battles of pvp,i would not be interested at all,i want PVE content.
I actually feel sorry for any grunt working at EA or for EA.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Also the people that made SWG great are already working on other projects and games. So if you think it will be like SWG its going to be a sad mistake.
So prob an instanced based game with 4 players, a cash shop and a social hub where we can all hang out and show off our cash shop hats and pets, wait did I almost describe SWTOR?
Making so much noise you dont know when to listen.
one star wars mmo, that's what lucasarts said...
unless disney changed that rule lately
"I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up! Not me!"
Categorizing it as "junk" is an absurd statement to make, especially when your basis for that conclusion is that the engine doesn't handle the amount of players that a full-scale MMO would, when the engine was NEVER DESIGNED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
That is the equivalent of complaining that your Atari 2600 cannot play games designed for your PlayStation 4.
Star Wars Battlefront from DICE is one of the best Star Wars games of all time. Open beta gave players access to about 5% of the content that the retail version will contain. There is no shortage of ignorant haters flocking to this site to troll and talk shit, it's been that way for years now, but any self-respecting Star Wars fan will be playing the game on release day and loving every minute of it.
The game is much more than just Star Wars with a Battlefield skin on it, what they have created is truly something special.
Not saying that that the game in question is bad or good , i only played it for 1h yesterday and cant have an opinion yet.
As for a new game I would love a new star wars MMO or a star wars game like skyrim or the witcher, but it does not seem like it will be happening anytime in the near future.
As much as I liked SWG, that game was flawed from the start, too many bugs, bad code, unfinished/rushed content and the housing poluted every planet. Didnt look like a Star Wars city/village at all.
SWTOR: engine blew chunks, way too themeparky+boundaries.
So yeah, this Star Wars fan does respect himself and I respect the franchise enough not to buy in any money grabbing/childish content LA or now Disney puts out and dares to say the SW franchise is polluted with -official licensed- awful bad products.
PS: Ewoks are sh*t.
"going into arguments with idiots is a lost cause, it requires you to stoop down to their level and you can't win"
If Blizzard posted the following statement on twitter, "We are liking to hire some good people" everyone else would be up in arms
And before you try and call me out for not being a fan...I saw the original movie back in 78'...and have enjoyed all of them ever since.
