Who cares about BioWare/SOE/LA???

BioWare's MMO is at least 2 years away anyway.

Don't look for anything public to be released, much less a name or "theme" for about a year.

Anything else is nothing more than hot air hyperbole.

    The people over there think its Dragon Age. That is a worse guess than a SW KOTOR MMO. But whatever, they have done everything they can to chase SW fans away from there so I see no need to post over there anymore. I hope its something like Carebears Online just so I can laugh at those jackasses. DA is MUD/single player it looks like, not an MMO.  WTF do they know?

    "Don't look for anything public to be released, much less a name or "theme" for about a year."

    That's crap.

    No company would announce they are making a new game and then not put out another detail for 18 months (6 already plus your year).  that would be a horrible decision.

    Expect details in the coming month or so. So far it's been six months with no news. They knew what game they're making at least 3 months before their "Austin Studio" announcement.

    9 months with no news about "the game" - just the studio.

    They are a lot farther than you think IMHO

    IDK but there is going to continue to be a lot of speculation and irritation over it. I can't see that being a good thing. The let down for SW fans if its not won't end in a good way if they wait to much longer. They really should give people something else to move on to by telling them. Its hard when all your hopes as a gamer and SW fan hinge on whether or not you will ever get told what you want to hear. But that's just the way things are now. Take it or leave it.

    I agree.  In fact, I'd say that if E3 hadn't announced their recent change then we would have learned the name of the new MMO at that time.

    We still can, it will be interesting to see what happens next year during the smaller version of E3.

    Current development time for MMOs from inception to beta is 3.5 years, with another half year to release.  WoW took 5 years from development to release, and it took that long because well, they are Blizzard, and people know in the end they will get a polished product.  They are also, without a doubt, the ONLY development studio that can wait until "its done" to release.  Noone else can. 

    Name one other studio that is bringing in 100 million dollars a month in subscription revenue ALONE?  Name another company that made 280 miillion dollars in box sales on ONE GAME ALONE?

    Do you really think they just take a shit in a box and poof! an MMO?  Well, not counting SOE with regards to SW:G...But it takes TIME.  And it's going to take most companies longer because the average MMO'er now is going to expect WoW / Blizzard level polish and refinement.

    While all your fancy dancy stats are cool - your point:

    "Don't look for anything public to be released, much less a name or "theme" for about a year."

    is still crap.




    There will be an announcement much before then.
