Hurgis Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) I am still waiting for the obvious Pazaak mini-games... But kudos for putting some effort into your april fools Edited April 3, 2012 by Hurgis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owsley Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) The mini game I'd like to have is working casino games on Nar Shaadda. There are slots and gaming tables all over the place and none are interactive. Playing poker in Red Dead Redemption is a nice change of pace, especially when you cheat and get shot.

Deveron Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 When you implement ship interior customization, wouldn't it be great, instead of just clicking a console, to just switch to droid control and then by commanding our beloved tin cans do the changes to our ships? I know, I'd like to do that. Put in the ability to drop some lines at my companions and character and I'd really love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPaq Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 We'd probably also try to ensure they were more fun than re-padding ship seats. Well first seat must be usable for sitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBBP Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 It is stunning that the creation of this thread was needed. Two-fold that it got Mr Reid's attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHoltJHolt Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I completely missed this... Where can I read the joke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zejaie Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 How about you wash windows during a space battle? Then the challenge would be not to get shot off. Of course, I think most of us would be happy if our droid got blasted into tiny bits during a space battle. I know I would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravzar Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Lol I think it is funny so many people doubted this was an april fools joke. There were a lot of individual signs (like trade marking names for an update!) and that it just makes no business sense. There were a lot of signs it was a joke by the general look and feel of the entire page, its announcement, and the general attitude of it. I think it just must be a lot of kids. I don't know how anyone could seriously believe this, especially given the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiteRunner Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 You almost lost me Bioware. hahaha.. seriously thou, the next Mini-Game idea that comes floating around the conference table should include a that wonderful game of Pazaak from KOTR. And by mini game I mean a smartphone "app" linked to my in game credits. Long story short, you got me good. Cheers There IS the technology in this btw -- afterall there is Fable Coin Golf that sends your gold that you make to your Fable III games (with the choice between PC and Xbox360). I think this would be a great idea. Lets just make sure its marketed to all smartphones and not just the ones that the authenticator app is made for. I have a WP7 and no authenticator for me. ------ And Mr. Stephen Reid -- This joke was taken too far. I would have been fine with it had one thing NOT have happened - The @SWTOR twitter team making followers look (and potentially feel) like crap for not believing in ShipDroid. I don't know if you take care of the @SWTOR twitter account or not, so I'm not going to direct my grievances towards you. I do want to thank you for not replying to my tweets asking for verification. In that you have earned my trust. I happen to be one of the few housebound players here who suffers from health issues so my means of fun and socializing are video games and facebook. Again -- thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkais Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) Spurred by the joke, a lot of people have expressed excitement over the idea of mini-games in The Old Republic. This is something that's always been a potential future feature, but we've got no announcements to make on that right now. We'd probably also try to ensure they were more fun than re-padding ship seats. [/color] Please look into adding Pazaak to SWTOR as a minigame. Like it was in KOTOR 1. Minigames certainly hold a lot of appeal to me, as like I said earlier, just killing mobs gets repetitive and boring eventually. Pazaak might give some people more incentive to hang around in cantinas too. It is stunning that the creation of this thread was needed. Two-fold that it got Mr Reid's attention. Yeah, people would like minigames a lot I think. (not counting pvp hardcases and hardcore raiders who will spout "this update is stupid and pointless" as many times as you want) Edited April 4, 2012 by Karkais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
