What a star wars game should look like.

[Mandalorian Exile]

I think a star wars game should incude being able to go to most of the planets in the star wars galaxy. You should be able to do nething to anyone or anything, kinda like KoTOR, but with the ability to fight like a 3rd person shooter. So im imagining something closely along the lines of morrowind meets star wars. any ideas or add ons?

[empire21]

We need a SW game like Final Fantasy. RPG would be the perfect platform for a SW game, any era.

[Mandalorian Exile]

I believe that the RPG genre IS perfect, but an RPG with the fighting style of FABLE would be nice. and a setting based in all three of the prequal episodes would be hot. u could start out as anything and kinda weave in and out of the main plot, and also explore the time between films.

[empire21]

^ yes I totally agree, for both trilogies. I'm surprised this hasn't happened already. Great idea's Mandalorian

[Mandalorian Exile]

U R very kind. I have always thought that Lucas Arts spends to much of its time making games that look very cool when they come out but r either not that fun to play, or r very fun to play and r full of great ideas, but they dont follow through. this leads to games that r hurried through production and turn out to be half games. they take absolutely no time to beat and leave much to be desired. all except for the KoTOR games. the only complaint about those games is like i said before, i would like it to have a feel like how the new episode III game is supposed to be.

[Kapit]

keep in mind, LA doesn't MAKE all the games

[Jedi_Poo]

I wanna see a Star Wars hunting game kinda like Deer Hunter or a Cabela's game. You know you can select your gun and equipment and go to different locations and hunt different species of animals. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/crazy.gif

[Mandalorian Exile]

The only problem i see with hunting games is unless u like them they really arent a very wholesome genre of game. They are very repetitive, but i think that a new line of a star wars hunting ARCADE game would be very interesting to see, and to play. I was thinking more along the lines of an RPG that deals with story of eiither trilogy, AND the in-between areas of the story that arent explored in-depth.

[Kapit]

give me an FPS that spans the movies over an RPG any day

[Mandalorian Exile]

Huh. well, i can see where that would be fun, but the basis for a FPS is that what u do the most is KILL everything in sight. You really have no reason to just go through the story line of one of the trilogies just to kick any alien ass u may come across. That should be saved for something like u being a mandalorian duriing the mandalorian wars or something along those lines. My idea was to be a JEDI during either the clone wars or the war against the Empire. These settings are really a standard for RPG's, but u do make a good point. instead of being fully 3rd person it could be cool to integrate 1st person mode, kinda like jedi outcast or academy. Does anyone have ne plot suggestions?

[Kapit]

i would love a huge game that spans the saga, or for money, 2 games for each trilogy, like the KOTOR saga, but more hands on fighting, instead of just pushing a button over and over to attack.....that gets monotonous and boring after a time

[Mandalorian Exile]

I agree, the KoTOR games' fighting style does get a little repetitive, I would much rather integrate KoTOR's gameplay with a different fighting style, but also change the gameplay itself. Use KoTOR as a base or example, but to create something that is totally different, a new avenue for gamers. Maybe add in some special online extras, but dont make the whole game be online like star wars galaxies. But still, what kind of characters and settings would it be. It would be interesting what we could come up with. Maybe submit ideas to LA? I have no idea whether or not this is possible but it is something to think about, if we can truely come up with something unique, and do-able.

[Revan]

KotOr was great.But not perfect.I agree with Mandalorian Exile about the battle style.It should be long.Very long.More in-games,like pazaak and swoop racing.They should put an even bigger attention on your party members,and there shold be more game-turning events.
Guess I'm out of inspiration now!

I would be amazing if LucasArts made a game where you ascend the ranks of the Imperial Navy, from the Academy to Grand Admiral. You could pick your combat branches (stormtrooper;fighters;star destroyers). This could be integrated with a more advanced version of the TIE Figher game engine for pilots, a Republic Commando-like part for the stormtroopers, and a much more sophisticated Empire at War game engine for the regular fleet officers, and it would come with the thing that I have dreamed about since the age of six: a complete walkthrough of Star Destroyer style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happydance.gif --sry for the length--

[Revan]

Yeah,lordmakalpine,that would really be interesting.But I always prefer to be a jedi.

[General Nikola]

I totaly agree with makalpine.And maybe the game should have affiliations like KOTOR plus missions.A succesfull mission would give you money + something like... rank points.When you get maximum rank points you are promoted.

In the game you should be able to drive some starships (the class should depend on your affiliation) and vehichles like the AT-ST,hover tanks,and perhaps if you are a high rank AT-AT's.

[General Nikola]

Ups... almost forgot the Jedi style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

They should be same like the ones in KOTOR,but with ranks as well.Like padawan,knight and master.

And as some of you said,more realsitic battles with more atack types and ''not to only press buttons to fight''.

[General Nikola]

The Jedi should have milions of powers. style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/scatter.gif

[Jedi_Poo]

Doesn't KOTOR fall into that section.

[General Nikola]

The game should mostly look like KOTOR and Jedi Academy.It should have battle simulations which you can access by playing a computer in a cantina.The traveling between planets should be more realistic.The flight must not me automated unless you want it to be.

See how many ideas I can get? style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif

[Cassus Fett]

Really nice idea.

I would like to see either a RTS or RPG game about/during the Mandalorian Wars, where you are a Mandalorian Warrior or a Republic Soldier (which you could decide from the start)

A bonus level of hunting down Jar jar

[Cassus Fett]

yeah

[Mandalorian Exile]

I've been away for awhile and look at all the ideas, yeeeuh. well, i like the idea about an RTS or RPG that takes place in the mandalorian wars, but wouldn't u like to have something more up to date. I.E. an RPG that has you as a Jango Fett about 30 years before the prequal series. This is about the time that jango fett is taken in by this group of mandalorian shocktroopers and learns the ways of the mandalorians. soon after this you are put into battle doing mercenary work. This could be a star wars version of Fable, except totally badass. you could start out at jango's youth training to become a mandalorian shocktrooper. Then progress a few years and begin the real fighting. I have so much more on this idea, but id like to hear some of your opinions.

[darth scourge]

If only lucasarts listened to the fans more we'd have much more kick ass games.I like that idea about Jango.Wouldnt it be funny if there was a Star Wars Grand theft auto lol.
Also the bounty hunter game should be more like an rpg where you choose from a list of bounties and travel across the galaxy looking for them,gathering as much info and then hunting them.
