KotoR 3: Ideas, Suggestions, Discussion, Part 24

[Xard]

I hate that box it fills up all the time. Fine, I'll make some room by deleting some of TA's spam

 

Oh c'mon guys, it was just sarcasm and he totally brought it on himself

 

before you edited the post of yours there was 'Hunarian' instead of hungarian

 

Uhh, haven't seen typo before? Does hunarian mean something?

[Xard]

Did already

 

Man aint' you thick, funcroc just posted the proof.

 

EA HAS NOT LEAKED ANYTHING. It was list of franchises that tranfer unde EA's domination (Mass Effect Franchise, Dragon Age franchise ((yes they call it franchise already)) and Kotor franchise). No secret Kotor projectz or anything.

 

LA and Bioware are working again on some game but that game is NOT kotor 3.

 

Btw, how come you suddenly start going on how Bio is like 100 % surely developing K3 right now but just moments ago you kept talking about "yer friends" at Obsidian in that other topic?

 

 

Interesting shift in other topic, suddenly you start to talk about how you're sure BIOWARE is working on Kotor game (which is bollocks btw). What about "yer friends"?

Speaking of Bollocks Xard, where do you get your "facts"? e.g How do you know they're not working on KOTOR III?

[Xard]

How about official statement by Bioware?

Posted by Chris Priestly (Bioware Community Coordinator) on 15th of february:

 

"I can say there is no KotOR3 from BioWare since there is no KotOR3 from BioWare. I can't comment on the MMO because there is going to be an MMO, I just can't talk about what it might or might not be."

While not technically a press release, I suppose it is the closest thing you'll get to an official denial. No saying what the MMO might be though.

[Magister Lajciak]

you want some explanation? fine, ask J. Sawyer if he is willing to tell something because i did promished him not to tell what we talked about then,

i mention him as the example because we are in the Obsidian forums

 

I promished people that i keep this and that secret, i posted those images because with those i didn't break any promishes nor did i step on anyones toes.

 

 

here is an older screenshot about the 'whom-when', but i won't tell anything

 

 

 

 

also i decided not to post anything else of importance anymore around here because since i shared the info here i feel like in court, i expected some disbeliefs but i thought even the most pessimists would atleast like the actual pictures, as it seems i was wrong, bye

 

 

EDIT: the only thing architect found is the trace of me trying to get all the allowed data to combinate without letting out info i promished not to let out, and that i failed in that

 

EDIT2: do not think that Josh is my only source of info, but he is the easiest to prove in these forums, and the screenie was the easiest to show that i am in contact with him without giving out any real info (sorry Josh, they started to annoy me, had to prove atleast something)

 

If Mr. Sawyer did indeed tell you that Obsidian Entertainment is working on KOTOR 3, I would consider that credible. Were that the case, however, I think it is at the very least inappropriate to break his trust by posting that publicly. As much as I would love and I mean love to have confirmation that KOTOR 3 is in the works, placing his PMs into the public domain (well, ok, you did not do that, but you did hint at their content) is not fair to him. Still, I do hope you are correct that KOTOR 3 is in the works.

 

The major problem is, who would be making KOTOR 3 were it in the works? Bioware has explicitly stated that it is not making KOTOR 3. Obsidian Entertainment has not stated anything, but it is already working on the Aliens game, as well as on a secret project that is a new IP co-developed with Sega. It is also likely that OE is working on the second expansion pack to NWN 2. As a relatively new company, I doubt it can take on any more than that simultaneously.

[Darth Jack]

Well, it wouldn't be the first time develepers, lied about a "hypothical" game, just look at how long EPIC denied Gears of War 2

[Rycal]

Thanks for some facts. People seem to be spitting out a lot of those without any clear leads as to where they got their facts.

 

At any rate, I'd rather have Obsidian make a KOTOR 3 than BioWare.

[Guest Accept]

...I promished...

Sean Connory... is(ch) that you?

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

[RANT]BIO is not making Kotor 3. They have denied it, they have said they want to work on their own IP's, and they already have loads of other projects.

 

Obsidian could be mkaing Kotor 3, because they haven't said what Project Georgia is, but we just don't know.

 

Until we get some sort of confirmation, a barely subtle press release that hints at Kotor 3 or a massive amount of rumors popping up everywhere, it's pretty much useless to predict Kotor 3. We can only hope.[/RANT]

 

In any case, I want Obsidian to make it. With more time, K2 would have been damn near perfect, so I can only hope Kotor 3's development would go smoother and more organised.

[Jediphile]

True. However, the problem with those observations is that Bioware IS working on a project with Lucasarts. Does anyone think that project is an original IP created by Bioware?

 

In any case, I want Obsidian to make it.

 

Agreed.

[Dagon]

Hey guys relax a bit!

I have to say that i kind of believe him, If he would like just to start internet drama and rumor, he would create another account or something, he's on these forums almost from the beginning, so it would be quite stupid for him to lie. So there are two likely possibilities one that he just misinterpreted some information given to him by someone, or that there's in fact Kotor 3 in (pre?)production.

 

Anyway

Thanks for the concepts Jorian Drake. They look great even if they are coming from the canceled LA's kotor.

[Magister Lajciak]

Yes, the pictures are definitely appreciated!

[Darth Jack]

speaking of "leaked" info, a random person recently posted on his site whats meant to be concept art for KOTOR 3, a better description of this can be found here:

which also has a link to the supposed concepts

At least Omelette's in there.

 

And that's all that counts.

 

 

And this picture is full of people that think you're a fudgepacker.

[Darth Jack]

Jorian, like majister said, you shouldnt post whatever or whatever not Mr J Sawyer sent you, i know its hard to resist but you should really keep private messages private.

 

The Architect and Accept, when i joined these forums, i wanted to talk about games, not be involved in a flame war, next time, try and keep snide comments to yourself. i mean debates and put downs (for those who need it) are acceptable, random fights and general ignorance isnt really a part of a good community site

[Musopticon?]

Proper typing on the other hand...

 

You've obviously never been a forum member.

 

There's no flame war in sight, just pals having a go at each other, and your "involvement" is nonsensical, since there is none.

 

 

Anyway, right now the most probable KotOR 3 possibility is one done by Lucasarts studio in the near future. There's an obvious market for it and after the next lightsaber game(remember that LA often has only one SW game in their focus, to avoid cross-hype, not to mention it being cheaper), SW:Force Unleashed, K3 is a likely prospect, maybe they'll even get an outside studio to develop it. Perhaps Obsidian? They've shown interest in making the game and by 2010(which isn't unprobable target for pre-production) they might have a game development "slot" free(if the 3 games being developed simultaneously-shtick holds water). However, there's a likelihood that it's not an rpg. Imagine, if Force Unleashed ends up selling well, and it will, that LA will take a hint and at least some of the core features of the combat dynamics(or rather, the lack of them) will be shown to the door and replaced with features from the more "user-friendly" actiony combat.

 

Fret not, though, at least we'll get closure. And to be honest, FE looks like fun.

[Guest The Architect]

Yeah, like Mus? said, Accept and I are buddies. We just give each other **** 95% of the time because it's part of our love/hate relationship. It's fun, not only for me, but also for him, even though I'm always pwning him.

 

And the emoticon above is a trademark part of it.

 

It's not the last he'll be seeing of it by a long shot.

 

Anyway, I have to agree with Mus?

 

2010, possibly even late 2009 seems like the earliest and most ideal time to get K3 rolling, and while I want it to be an OE made CRPG, there's always a chance that won't happen, but given how much I'd love to see closure to TSL, among others here, I could tolerate taking K3 in any shape or form, save a gay ass MMORPG, and as long as canon on Revan/Exile stays the **** away from it.

[Xard]

With buddies he means bb's

[Guest The Architect]

No, you're confusing the Finnish homo idea of buddies with the rest of the worlds, jackass.

I don't know whether a LucasArts internal studio is able to create a roleplaying game of sufficient quality...
