    KotoR 3: Ideas, Suggestions, Discussion, Part 25

    in Star Wars: General Discussion

    Posted · Edited by walkerguy

    I hope they do not make an MMO. Since they've already ignored us and made The Force Unleashed, the least they can do is be sure to create an RPG. They probably want extra cash if they're truly considering an MMO format. Then again, if they wanted cash they'd had started making K3 a long time ago. :lol:

    According to this thread, a great majority of people want an RPG.

     

    And about Bioware, quoting the good Jediphile:

     

    This is the same source that we heard the other day which attributed a KotOR MMO to a collaboration between LA and Bioware. Hence I don't believe it, since LA has already denied that. Yes, they are working on something with Bioware, but it has nothing to do with KotOR.

    Bioware is not working on K3 unless they are making a completely direct lie.

     

    "Yes, we [Lucas Arts] are working with BioWare. We've announced that we're working with the developer on a project, but it has nothing to do with Knights of the Old Republic."

    Its probably because the forums are relatively unsecure and primitive as far as most sites go. Seemingly. o:)

    Let's all be nice to walkerguy so we don't have vtech in the form of a ddos attack.

     

    Too late. :lol:

    Well, I guess I might be alone when the outbreaks start - as you all have really been generating abysmal scores. :lol:

     

    You must not care for your loved ones and own enough firepower to supply a small war, no?

    Recent news about the Discovery shuttle

     

    CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - A metal clip broke off Discovery's rudder and only four hours passed before the seven space shuttle astronauts got the good news: The missing part poses no danger for Saturday's re-entry and landing.

     

    Ever since the Columbia tragedy five years ago, any shuttle part seen floating away in orbit gets NASA's attention — fast.

     

    Mission Control reassured commander Mark Kelly and his crew on Friday that their spaceship was safe for coming home, and that the missing clip would not jeopardize anything. Good weather is expected for Saturday's landing in Florida.

     

    A protrusion in the same area at the tail, reported by the astronauts around the same time, also was found to be harmless. The rudder's position made the so-called bump look strange when, in fact, that piece of thermal barrier was exactly how it looked at liftoff, Mission Control said.

     

    During a pair of broadcast interviews on Friday the 13th, Kelly acknowledged that he and his crew were worried at first. The clip broke loose during a routine check of the flight systems needed for Saturday's descent.

     

    Kelly said he was impressed at how quickly engineers were able to resolve the issues, and noted that the zoom-in photos of the fleeing clip, taken by one of his crewman, helped in the analysis.

     

    LeRoy Cain, chairman of the mission management team, said without those pictures, it would have taken engineers longer to identify the lost piece and possibly could have delayed landing.

     

    Space shuttles have returned to Earth in the past with clips missing from the rudder, which opens like a book to serve as a speed brake. The V-shaped spring tabs, just 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch, protect that area from the intense heat of liftoff by providing a seamless barrier down the back edge of the rudder, or tail, panels.

     

    Engineers suspect this clip, or tab, came loose during the vibrations of launch on May 31, and it wasn't until the speed brake panels were opened for checkout Friday, that it floated away.

     

    Following Columbia's destruction during re-entry in 2003, the Air Force went back through its radar images from the flight and found a small object in orbit with the space shuttle. Accident investigators concluded it almost certainly was a fragment of a heat panel from Columbia's gashed wing.

     

    Flight director Richard Jones said his team "reacted with a very calm, levelheaded approach."

     

    "We knew that we had to methodically work every single piece of data that we could get. After we had that in hand, it became clearer and clearer that we did not have an issue," Jones said.

     

    Astronaut Garrett Reisman, meanwhile, returning after three months aboard the international space station, said he is "cautiously optimistic" that his adjustment to gravity won't be as bad as some have experienced, and that he may not suffer as many balance problems because he's short.

     

    "My sensory organs are a little closer to my center of gravity, and my heart has a little less distance to pump to my brain," he said. "I've been waiting my whole life, and I think finally this being short is going to come in handy for once."

     

    Reisman said he is looking forward to sleeping in his own bed and using his own toilet. He said in an earlier interview that his last month at the space station was difficult because of a broken toilet and preparations for Discovery's arrival.

     

    The toilet was fixed after Discovery delivered a new pump along with the prime payload, a billion-dollar Japanese lab.

     

    Reisman woke up on his 94th day in space to a song requested by his wife, Simone Francis, and beamed up by Mission Control: "Baby Won't You Please Come Home" by Louis Prima and Keely Smith.

     

    "A special good morning to Simone, my favorite earthling," Reisman called down. "Get ready doll face, Discovery is coming home."

    Probably the name of some gang of Walkerguy and his ten year old friends roll in.

     

    Ha. Most call them six year olds. Anyhow, they're some big multi-clan thing mostly dominant in Halo 2 & 3. I don't personally care for them, and I wondered if anyone had something to say since I figured they're probably well known enough. Whatever.

    Then I can start an FBI, too! :huh:

     

    If you could use some dwarven names or elven names or even gnomish names, yeah, we could probably be of use but we don't know anything, maybe if you asked something more specific? Like naming 3 human cities or 5 mountains or whatever, beats spouting "Groblor, the nasty looking Goblin" as a suggestion.

     

    Yes, anything.
