Because KoTOR II is that damn good.

Erroneous

If only. It would make the disappointment so much easier to bear.

No, not a fan of MMOs.

Same but what if it was like Mass Effect 1 but with much deeper character customization and you could do everything with your buddies? I'm not saying for ME to become a WoW clone like SWTOR is. It will stay a third person shooter but with much more things to do/upgrade/level up.

As much as I like Mass Effect and it's universe, I still wouldn't buy it. I really don't care for MMOs. Not a huge multiplayer fan in general though.

MMO is the worst genre right now. Quality and standard is extremely low. Combat is all hot-key spamfest.

Mr_BillGates

I said multiple times ITS LIKE MASS EFFECT 1 but larger and with much more to do. Not because its an MMO it has to be like WoW=hit key spam fest. Too many ppl in here think i'm refering to WoW like gameplay but im not. Again, would you like an MMO with Mass Effect 1 feel but deeper, co-op and with much more stuff to do. That includes discovering/exploring planets on mako or on foot, alone or in co-op.

Considering how SWTOR is the biggest blunder in gaming history, I'd say no a Mass effect MMO would be a terrible idea, unless Blizzard or Arenanet were the ones behind it. Bioware is clearly terrible at making MMO's, but I do partly blame EA for rushing release dates

[QUOTE="mems_1224"]No, Bioware flopped so hard with SWTOR that I would be surprised if they dumped that much money into another MMO. nekrothing

TOR was a commercial and financial success. Name one other P2P MMO other than Warcraft that's broken the one million subscribers mark.

It was also one of the fastest MMO"s to go free to play, I think it made its money back( barley) estimates put the cost of making it are between $200 million to $300 million.

Title says it all. Not a fan of mmo's because 90% of them are korean grind trash with loli characters everywhere batman but i think it would fit Mass Effect perfectly. Most people (including myself) b*tched because Bioware simplified everything, removed lots of rpg elements and gave us much less armors/weapons (me3 has enough weapons tho) and skills on our skill trees. So, if they were to release it as 'rpg' as it can get with good looking next gen engine and on ps4, pc and 720, would you buy it? I really think ME3 multiplayer had something special but maps were too small and running in circles killing sh!t isn't enough to keep some1 playing for over 1k hours. What if they evolved their combo system, had a huge world to explore and added tones of new abilities? I think the game could be epic and much memorable than any ME released to date.



Edit: No monthly fees btw.

[QUOTE="ArisShadows"]

[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"] Star Wars had a time and a place when it was good. And then all good will for the series went out the window with the extended universe and George Lucas making prequels.....and him editing his own old good movies.jg4xchamp

When you say extended universe, do mean like Ep 1-3 and everything containing with that, or after Ep 6, containing what happened with Luke and so afterwards..?

Anything outside of episode 4, 5, and right up until I was shown ewoks.

Honest answer: anything that isn't the movies. Those comics/books/etc are like f*cking fan fiction territory. Gross.

Too many puppets in general in Epi6, it starts with Jabba's stupid room of puppets (made even worse with Lucas' edits), then the whole planet of Ewoks. It was like 'Muppet's in Space!'

Sure, the storm troopers never hit anything, but would they really be so incompetent to be defeated by a tribe of teddy bears?

How an MMO does at launch is a completely worthless indicator of its success; what matters is its longevity. SWTOR went free-to-play in less than a year after its launch and Bioware implemented some of the most inane pay-to-play mechanics ever. Paying money for an extra action bar and the ability to hide your helm? That's the only way they're able to recoup the $100 million they spent making the most spectacular flop of an MMO in recent history. On topic: I can't trust Bioware to make a good game nowadays. They're completely inept as a developer.

Bioware never wanted to make kotor 2 to begin with, hence why they gave it to obsidian. They stated around 2004-05 that they wanted to try the mmo genre

Yeah, agreed, and to be fair there were some aspects of/in KOTOR2 that they improved upon. The battle system to name one. The story was adaquate, but by no means as memorable as the first. It felt rushed in the end... The suits fault on that one.

I havent had a chance to look into it all that much... I know it's restored content. It's a mod that completes more of the story? buying a gaming laptop soon, maybe I'll re-up on some KOTOR2 ps am I the only one who really disliked fighting a group of lightsabers at the end of that game? always bugged me... I have other things that bug me but you guys wouldnt want to hear them. :cool:

Because KoTOR II is that damn good.

No it wasn't..... Even in its now finished state, there are flaws....a bunch of great ideas but poor execution such as playable party members and the influence system. Its better than KOTOR which was basically the "FFVII of WRPGs"...came out at the right time, got popular, but badly flawed in many key areas.

Still doesn't make Kreia telling your future less contrived. Also while Kreia's motives were excellent, her plan was simply wacky regarding Star Wars lore.

This The multiplayer in ME3 was easily a shocking surprise and an experiement that worked. A TPS MMO would work in this franchise if they get the balance right.
