Rumor: Further evidence of Star Wars: KOTOR MMO discovered

I think I just creamed myself.

Prestige classes FTW!

should be good unless they drop the ball like they did with swg patch after patch

Oh man, my pants are now sticky.

...freaking maple syrup. I spilled it in pure excitement.

Open secret here in Austin among the game development community. They are hiring like mad.

I don't get why people want this. KOTOR 3 would rock, but I wouldn't want a KOTOR MMO. They'd be much better off keeping this as story-based single player, especially since every MMO not named World of Warcraft is destined to be at best only marginally successful since most people don't want to play more than one MMO, one time suck is bad enough.

You eat waffles at the computer too?! And here I was thinking I was the only one.

You guys misspelled dialogue.

A KOTOR MMO would be amazing.

Having the two warring factions will provide a lot of gameplay-- the constant war, all the missions that could come out of it, different gameplay opportunities. Crap, I have no idea if I'd rather play Sith or Jedi. Probably both. Shit.

JUST TELL US ALREADY BIOWARE!?!?! WHATS ARE YOU WORKING ON!!!

It is an important thing to note that one the Bioware page, one the drop down menu for games, the LucasArts/Bioware Interactive Product" and the "Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO)" are two different tabs.

That leads me to believe that, unfortunately, the two are not the same thing.

this game will be like crack-cocaine to me. i will smoke it and then beg for change for more of it

I think an mmo would ruin kotor... kotor is a great game because of the dialog system, battles and well is SW which ownz. I don't think a grindfest is what kotor needs.

Besides most likely it would look like crap, like most of the mmos out there.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

KOTOR 3 single player RPG > KOTOR MMO

I can absolutely 100% guarantee that I would buy KOTOR 3. Where on the otherhand I'm extremely sceptical about buying (and continuing to pay for) a KOTOR MMO.

It's an excellent idea, so long as they keep it "canon" and not allow for the control of major in-universe characters. Have the players take control of random, common Jedi and common Sith

Otherwise everyone would just run around as the coolest Sith lords, which would cheapen it infinitely

Wait, its BioWare, what do i have to worry about?

My fingers are still crossed for Mass Effect MMO. I mean, ffs, Mass Effect is already a singleplayer MMO is just about every regard!

You guys will games so slowly. I will you to practice willing faster, provided your willing.

"...how will we be expected to spend hours mindlessly grinding and spawn camping with all of that dialog getting in our way?"

It works for FFXI. That game's players tend to play it for the story, and it's still going strong seven years after it was released. My guess is that this would be closer to FFXI than WoW.

And, yes, I would play this one (I hated Galaxies... this has to be better).

SW:KOTOR MMORPG ftw! lol. kthnxbai

well it should be well known that SWG is pretty pathetic, and LucasArt's working on a new MMO would be quite logical. It's also well known that bioware and lucasart's are working on a project together. For me it's hard to say it's going to happen based on these two things. First off Bioware has never worked on an MMO, and hasn't worked on a multiplayer game since 2002. Second all three companies involved seem interested in developing new/original IP. EA has made it apparent that they are going to start focusing on new IP in their shareholder information. Bioware has only created 2 titles not using their own IP which goes to show they share the same idea as EA. Lastly LucasArt's has made several announcements pertaining to their need for original/new IP to stay competitive in the gaming market.

Personally I put no faith in this "so-called" script even if legit it could just be some left over paperwork from a collaboration meeting which could of been rejected, green lit, or put on the back burner. I would love to see a KOTOR MMO (assuming it's not a WOW clone), but I'm not convinced that's what's going on here.

Oh my god! Oh my god! This... this is big news! Oh yes! Fuel the flames and make it true!

Oh how I want this SO DAMN BAD!

Well ... there is definitely SOMETHING going on with Star Wars over at Bioware - just visited a friend who had a voice over script and character breakdown for a Star Wars game laying about, with Bioware and the year "2008" printed on it.

do not want. just kotor 3 please.k bye.

I would so play this

WANT!

DO WANT?

Not really sure about this honestly. I still haven't gotten through KOTOR II, got stuck at a point somewhere and gave up because I'm lazy.

I believe I'm stuck in the arena after a battle and I have no power-ups or weapons or armour so I can't get past all of the armed guards.

Look close at who Bioware has put in charge of the new MMORPG division in Austin, Texas:

Currently I am stuck playing SWG wich is 80% of the time boring, I think its a great idea to make a KotoR MMO to relieve the people who still play SWG. However i also think that they need to finish the story line and make a regular RPG of KotoR 3,.......after KotoR 2 we all were left asking "Is that it?"
