Bioware working on Kotor3

[CptStern]

Electronic Arts has revealed in an analyst report that BioWare is working on another Knights of the Old Republic title as well as an MMOG.

This appears to be the new RPG that publisher boss John Riccitello promised in a recent financial call, and should apparently be out before April next year.

I'm guessing Dragon Age before Kotor3 ..which would mean 2009-2010 release

 

[Rapstah]

**** yes.

What about Mass Effect 2?

 

[Eejit]

I was kinda hoping for a KotOR MMO, but that's a pretty good alternative

Maybe we'll see what happens in the unknown regions now

 

[VictimOfScience]

Hmm, well this should be a friggin incredible game if they have learned anything from the complaints about the previous KOTORs, Jade Empire, and Mass Effect. I am cautiously EXTREMELY exited about this news. (Though I am much more excited for Dragon Age...:E)

 

[StardogChampion]

Hopefully it comes out on PC at the same time as consoles.

 

[Asknoone]

I pretty much agree with everything sea said.

same

I'm interested in what mmo they are doing though

 

[Glirk Dient]

Oh dear god...I need to go change my pants.

It better not be incomplete like The Sith Lords was.

I loved Kotor.
I played Kotor 2 & it always crashed so I never finished.

Any game from that company is gonna be great imo. Wish I had Adam Sandlers "Remote" to fast forward time to buy my copy & then bring it back to the past to play it....

Good luck with that.

Apparently they are not working on kotor.

To quote from the Off Topic boards, where this was already addressed:

Hi folks

This seems to be much ado about nothing (to quote the bard). This was a slide that EA used to show the pedigree of the different studios to investors. That is why you see games that have already been released (like KotOR, Black, Boogie and others) mentioned on the slide.

Now that we all know what this is, the thread can be closed. Thanks.


LOCKDOWN!

Quoted so everyone sees it.

Apparently that slide was just about titles the studio has done in the past.

Though it could just be a way of covering-up what's really going on. [/wishful thinking]

Im happy about this. I would like them to make Mass Effect 2 rather then KOTOR seeing as how i never played KOTOR.

That's becuase there's no such thing as KATOR.

Maybe KOTOR though?

Oh, and that's a horrible reason for you saying you don't want them to make a game... Just because YOU haven't played it means they shouldn't make it? I think it means you need to play other (potentially better) games.

 

[Druckles]

Wait... so there's really no third game? D:

 

[Bad^Hat]

Bah, thanks for the non-hype.

Well, I still think their MMO could be interesting. Win or fail, Bioware always put alot of effort into their projects, which is more than you can say for 90% of MMO devs out there. I have a feeling they're not going to settle for the tried and true on this one, so at the very least it'll be something different.

Also, anyone remember the last time a top-tier developer decided to dabble in MMOs? Yeah, you know who I'm talking about. As unlikely as it is, I don't think I'd be the only one who'd love to see another MMO finally knock WoW off it's podium.

*puts on old pants*

Eww.

 

[Eejit]

No kotor3?
/sadpandaface

Well, maybe some time later.

It better not be incomplete like The Sith Lords was.

Bioware didn't make that...
