Guild Wars has proven that you can make a great MMO and not charge a monthly fee. Hopefully this game will take notice of the GW system and give us an awesome Star Wars experience without a monthly fee.

"LordImperius Posted: I want a KOTOR 3 and I want it to be sometime during Darth Bane's time. But atleast KOTOR 3 that doesnt require me to go online to play."

Yeah what the heck, all of the games all focus on one spot in the star wars timeline, branch out a little bit for crying out loud, I would kill for a Darth Bane game like Kotor. He would dominate.

I would way prefer an rpg to an mmo. Changing the type of game part way through a series is just annoying in the extreme. What was strong about the first game was the story, it had a start a mystery a revelation and more importantly a conclusion, you can't have that in an mmo, you have to keep telling the story which is what I don't like. As nice as it would be to have a new KOTOR game it would have to blow me away story-wise and visually and have plenty of solo content for me to even consider buying it. I'm just waiting on the 21st now to find out for sure.

Say what you want, for some one that follows the exapnded universe expansively and have played the KOTOR games, have read the Dark horse KOTOR stories. This game will be the "Be all end all." Why. Jedi's and Sith baby Jedi's and Sith. Add a Million users a war not only between Sith and Jedi but Sith and Sith, plus support casts(bounty hunters, mandalorians etc etc). I'll be upgrading the video card you best believe. Like the live action Transformers movie and Robotech....I been waitin years for this!

all of you who doubt this game are morons. KOTOR was one of the best RPGs ever. Not only was the customization incredible, but you got to create your own jedi or sith from scratch. Thats exactly what the MMO will be like, only there will be a war going on between Jedi and Sith players. Sure, Bioware has to come up with some crazy back story, but other than that, completing quests for better lightsaber pieces and robes, along with PvP lightsaber combat will be amazing. What's funny is that you will all see that this game will surpass all MMOs in quality. WOW is beat as hell, and the traditional PvE doesnt seem to be that fun anymore. Warhammer will shed a little light on MMOs because the fact you can level and get better gear with PvP. KOTOR will be the epitome of both, causing hundreds of players to join their colleagues in lightsaber combat; plus more due to the incredible background of the Star Wars Universe and ongoing Sith vs. Jedi wars. PERIOD

Wow! i can't believe all the negative previews posted here, (and the game isnt even out yet!).

Don't you guys think you should wait til the game comes out before passing judgement?

I personaly believe the game 'may' turn out to be quite popular. I'm looking forward to trying it out, and i HATED the original KOTOR. lol

I think if you loved the original KOTOR, you may very well want to PASS on this game. After all it is an MMO. Not everyone is into MMORPGs and thats fine. Everyone like different games sometimes. (Move along, this is not the game your looking for . . .)

As good as Bioware is, a kotor mmo would not be the same game. Kotor was designed to be a single player game with a specific story about a few people having a pivotal role in the Star Wars universe. In a mmo everyone will be running around with major importance? This will end up feeling like all other mmo’s; repetitive, lacking in npc’s that matter, and most important of all is the empty story line. Kotor had a great story interesting npc’s and I don’t think that even Bioware can keep the feel of kotor when translating it to a mmo. People who like kotor like the story line and will just want to play out the missions. Now they will be harassed every few seconds by some jerk wad that wants to duel them. Cant Lucas Arts be happy with just making a great game and not making another mmo so they can squeeze a few more bucks out of people.

I think it would be nice if the new KOTOR III would start with light or dark side universe. So if you want to play a light side toon, you would be able to stop dark side insurrection or change the universe to light side. If an dark side toon the same would apply. So now you would have multiple beginnings and endings.

TBH I hope this is some sort of followup to star wars galaxies. However if it is a KOTOR MMO it better feature the great storytelling like its predecessors and hopefully it doesn't shift gameplay too much to fit an MMO style.

Bioware are the masters of good story telling and KOTOR was one of their best. I don't care if the MMO is KOTOR based or not if Bioware are behind it I'm getting it. If LucasArts are involved it extremely likely to be KOTOR based and hopefully be the game that Star Wars Galaxies should have been.

Hold on... Where does he actually say its going to be 'KotOR 3'? He dosn't even specify its in the Old Republic era, or even Star Wars. Just that its in partnership with LucasArts.

Now of course a bit of deduction would indicate a game based upon the KotOR franchise started by Bioware would seem logical, but I cannot see where they have said this will be an actual sequel. Though if it is, I would be disappointed - from a buisness stand point an MMO set in the era would be a perfect project to keep the hype and interest in KotOR high so they could release another perhaps 'final' singleplayer based game later on.

Just my 50p.

yeah they better F be releasing a singleplayer game also, the 2 predecessors were pure gold!

I hope a $20 monthly fee is put in place. Remember the higher the fee = less kids playing the game.

Yes, monthly fees blow. But if it's good enough, I'll pay up. I mean World of Warcraft was a delicious game. A KOTOR MMO would be sweet.

ok why dont you tell us how you know its not KOTOR III!!! unless your working on it you cant know so shut your face. we as the fans are simply stating what we want!! hopefully people will see it and consider it as they work on it. so unless you are working on it and want to tell us exactly how its going to be then please be my geust. but dont presume to know what it is until more info is released! all we know for sure is Star Wars MMO! i mean for all we know its a totally different time setting! no where close to the time of revan. i mean all this work on the clone wars stuff who is to say its not a jedi deal in that time perios. before you say anything i know galaxies has already done that but i mean come on! Galaxies sucked! i mean you are not apart of the military officialy when you join a side and then anyone can buy the stuff from both sides. it makes no sense. i mean on Gamespot all it says is star wars the old Republic (working title). this means it can be anywhere from the time of ep 3 back... Fans have a right to say what they want in their games. they are the consumers who buy the product. and since Kotor II fans have been dieing for a KOTOR III with a online cability. that doesnt mean we want a mmorpg!! so i say we should voice our oppinions here whether this is KOTOR III or not! but let us see if they Kill the series or not! Let us wait a while longer with our mouths watering for a KOTOR III!

I for one am hoping that Bioware and Ea and Lucasarts and whoever else is in on this shall read this! I am hoping that if this is not Kotor III and this is a spin off that we all want it to be then they will see the demand for a Kotor III and pursue this demand by giving it to us!

I really don't like the idea of having it as an mmo. I don't see how that would work with the other two, where you and you alone were the big hero. Like most others who posted here, i hope it isn't going to be the actual trilogy end.

Hey Vor Drek! if you cared to pay attention in KOTOR II if you play female the disciple points out that Revan only attacked certain targets. no one understands why but if you think about it he was uniting the republic against a bigger threat. or that was the geuss disciple made. so Revan has the entire Republic to back him up! that in my oppinion is why he did things the way he did. this way the republic forces will be unified to face a threat beyond the outer rim. so you should stop dissing your fellow fans and play the games again. and make sure you play as both male and female to get the whole story plus be on both sides. as for the mmo i was reading on other sites and this one too and it doesnt sound bad to have 2 seperate games. but the qeustion is will they make 2 seperate games or will they do it the cheap way and just make it a mmo. i really dont want to see the story die like this but it may come to that. unless someone with all these fan notes and stuff can actually walk into lucas arts or something and give them these ideas it looks as though some of us may never find out what happens. i mean i cant even get KOTOR II on computer. so i dont know what happens in the restored version of the game. (well what has been restored)

Most anticipated indeed, my friends and I have been waiting for them to announce officially that this is in fact a Star Wars: Old Republic MMO ever since SWG took a nose dive. EA seems to really be upping the ante here with Warhammer and this, with that in mind, I can see them actually dominating the MMO market in the near future, so long as they don't repeat the mistakes of others.

As for the fate of SWG... who really cares at this point? SOE desecrated any hope for that game a while ago, and in my opinion, it should have been put to rest along with MxO.

I wouldnt mind having a KotOR MMO, but i would greatly prefer itg in a similar format to the first two... just longer than around 35 - 45 hour gameplay. But who knows it could be like Freelancer in that it could have single player and multiplayer elements, only larger than Freelancers online system where servers could hold as much as 100 people.

If anyone here cares to pay attention to where the story of the first two games has led, an MMO is the perfect direction for this franchise. Revan is out in the Unknown Regions - he's gonna need an army of people to stop whatever it is he remembered at the end of KOTOR 1. Thus, multiplayer online! Anyhow, if it ends up being terrible, it's just a game. We'll all be very disappointed, and then we will find something else to do.

if they are to make this an mmo for the kotor they should atleast make you become a sith or a jedi and start your own jedi training on what ever planet you would want to start on then make yourself known as the best jedi or sith in the sw galaxy. and if you have to pay for this monthly they should atleast make their fans proud by sticking to the original kotor fighting style

I started bashing things into a brick wall around my computer when i found out that they want to make Kotor a mmorpg! i mean a monthly rate and all sux!! i mean ok ill give it to them that a old republic rpg would be kinda kool you know your a jedi and you have a mission or something (everyones going to pick jedi anyway.) and allies that you meet plus other players. but definitly not kotor sequel. think from a marketing perspective. Gas prices rise and alot of other stuff is too. even a monthly rate isnt acfordable so i think even if it is a good game people wont be able to pay to play. i mean make it a rpg with an online capability like Fable! i have been living to play the last kotor (not saying this is it). i personaly think they may lose money by doing this. then make the fans mad by discontinuing the story cause they didnt get what they wanted. and dont kid yourselves that is what they want! MONEY! who cares about the fans!! if they dont get the money they want then they will probgally shut down the KOTOR story and leave all the fans hanging! i would like them to either prove by doing it right or tell me im wrong straight up to me personaly eye to eye!
My question is... Who here agrees with me? im not going to comment on storylines cause i trust well enough that they will make a good story.

This is the perfect way to kill a good thing. I think it's a good idea to make an MMO in the old republic, but to call it a sequal to KotOR? C'mon Bioware, stop calling it a sequel because it isn't. I for one am not going to pay some monthly rate to pretend to have a sequel to a great rpg. I'm not going to buy it, and maybe if the majority of the KotOR fanbase don't buy it, Lucas Arts and Bioware might wise up and give us what we want. A real sequel to KotOR.

this is perfect imo prolly ganna be a mix of kotor and mass effect mechanics since mass effect was kinda a "spiritual sequal" in the fact you could partake in space travel and what not. i hope that this does not get half assed cause i believe it has pottential to be the greatest game ever made (not to sound to nerdy)

Bioware is, without question, the best in the industry and Star Wars has proven itself as one of the most endearing and beloved franchises of all time. Early SWG was the greatest gaming experience I've ever had and I can't imagine Bioware failing to go well beyond the mark of Sony. Win-Win-Win

I found the old SWG (know what I mean when I say old) to be incredibly vast and immersive.... and the story only served as a backdrop.

For those familiar with KOTOR's story, it makes a pretty heavy backdrop! I have to be honest, I just want to run around another SW universe (galaxy?) and get cool skills and items.... I find nothing but disappointment with MMORPG's storylines on a personal level. FFXI had a great story, but you and a billion other people were pretty much just along for the ride and it had nothing to do with you.

In short: Great presentation is key, but so is character creation. That's the real game for me. Looks and stats!!!! (and mad exploration)

I happen to be very happy with this new MMO because my two favorite games are WoW and KOTOR. most of the other comments are sounding Half empty rather then half full so people who are reading this might get a bad impession when really this might be quite awsome i mean think of all the cool things you will be able to do and class choices and even fraction choices like Republic or Sith, Jedi Master or Sith Lord so even though most of you are die hard KOTOR story line what other story is there to make. KOTOR 2 story line was pretty dull so cant exspect it to get much better. It went from most important person in the galxies to some guy who served under Revan
