[QUOTE=Cooperness;15767290]Wow, this game is going to be amazing[/QUOTE] I know, I haven't even been following it, but since reading that article i'm really looking forward to it.

I hate how that Sith Lord looks. He needs something on his head or a mask or something. He looks like a complete rip off of Vader without his helmet on and Bioware already did the Vader thing, with Malak. Actually, his minions look better, more Revan like. [QUOTE=bord2tears;15340102]The entertainment I got from that trailer was greater than all of the new Star Wars movies combined. [editline]11:16PM[/editline] That will be the 4th time I have watched it in the last hour or so.[/QUOTE] I agree. Lucas just made those movies so he could sell merchandise, he had no passion or vision when it came to the prequels.

[QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;15720132]I don't think you understand, this is no Star Wars Galaxies.... Never will be, this is something unique that you can't compare to anything else out there.[/QUOTE] Yeah, chances are it's going to be better.

Hopefully this will end up being fantastic and staying that way. I don't want to see a game get crushed like i did with SWG.(First started off strong, fantastic game, nothing like it on the market. Then bam, they fucked it up)

This game has a lot of hype around it.. To much hype can be extremely disappointing. So I'm going to try and stay away from it. But still, I can't suppress the feelings of joy of when this will come out! It'll be better than sax!

Sweet Jesus, that was insane. Will get.

Well,no commando,trooper has to do. the trooper armours look awesome anyway :razz:

Just posting here to say that the more I learn about this game, the better it looks. I just wish it wasn't an MMO, I don't want to play with other people all the time, I want to play the next instalment of the KOTOR series. I don't want to pay subscription fees. I'm not in favour of the cartoony style, but I suppose it's better than attempting to do a realistic star wars depiction then realising the graphical limitations of MMOs prevent you from doing that. Trailer was awesome.

You shouldn't be whining so much about Sith/Jedi being starter classes. The timeframe in which the game takes place, saw thousands of sith and jedi. This is long before the fall of the jedi, both sides of the force waged massive battles against eachother across the whole galaxy. So if 80% of the community is jedi or sith, it will still make sense from a lore perspective, considering the fact players are meant to be the few "important" characters, not just puny farmers. Hopefully they add some ambient life to cities, so its not just filled with player characters. NPC life is the real concern, regarding the overflow of sith and jedi really.

If this is anything like Star Wars: JA then I want it now!

[QUOTE=Sharpshooter;15879370]If this is anything like Star Wars: JA then I want it now![/QUOTE] It is nothing like it. 1. Auto attacks 2. Different compaines 3.MMO and not an MMO 4. Different graphics 5. 5 thousand years of fucking time difference. [editline]06:42PM[/editline] [QUOTE=apocca;15878962]You shouldn't be whining so much about Sith/Jedi being starter classes.

Jedi numbers were quite thin, but after reformation of the republic, I guess Jedi became famed diplomats, and became official I guess. Also, I think Jedi are the real evil ones. I'm not talking about Jedi vs. Sith. I am talking about the real Sith race. Back then, there were fucking armies of Jedi and Sith that would fight, I am talking hundreds of thousands of force users fighting in the same place. Apparently, the Jedi wiped out the Sith because they had different ideals than the Jedi. Therefore the Jedi are in fact the oppressive ones. [editline]06:44PM[/editline] Also, I don't care what side I am on. As long as I am apart of a greater struggle, my game shall be complete for me. [editline]06:44PM[/editline] Prepare to face the TRUE POWER OF THE DARK SIDE.!

I hope there play areas aren't too thin. I'd prefer a vast empty space like SWG over a linear path like KotOR in an MMO.

The sith are always so busy betraying each other, I'm surprised they can get anything done.

WANT WANT WANT God damn that looks like it'll have good rp

I think it's kind of sad that MMO's always look like they went back a step in graphics. I kind of get it, you know. Vast worlds, lots of players, etc. But still..

Meh, the graphics dont make the game . Tho its always a plus. What really matters more to me , are the athmosphere sounds.

Kind of exaggerated in this case though, it's not THAT bad.

wow i dont even like star wars and i am gettin this game...

They look pretty fuckin good for MMO's Plus I know I don't need to say it but.. its massively multiplayer. More players = less framerates basically, and depending on the events, it could get pretty epic/laggy. But yeah you already know all about that, there needs to be balance. But seriously LOTRO and AoC have very well done graphics if you have a computer that can run them well. [highlight]I just read about the localized instancing.. Not sure if I do or don't like that at this point in time..[/highlight] [editline]04:55AM[/editline] Anyone else think it'd be cool for melee to have a combo system like AoC had? So tons of different animations to make it look awesome..

[QUOTE=Jibonader;15935829]What if out of each server, they randomely selected maby 10-20 people that could make a jedi class each month or so?[/QUOTE] That would be very unfair to the other thousands of people wanting to play as jedi/sith.

Oh wow, that was the most fluid animation i've seen in a LONG time.

[QUOTE=Jibonader;15935829]What if out of each server, they randomely selected maby 10-20 people that could make a jedi class each month or so?[/QUOTE] You do realize, according to the lore I think, during these times Jedis and Siths weren't rare? There were A LOT of them. Being one wasn't something special or out of the ordinary. Of course you could differ the strong from the weak. Even if Jedis and Sith's are flooded with people playing them, it'll be norm. It fits to.

This cinematic is better than Episodes I-III combined.

Wait wait wait. So they decided to kill this game using localized instancing?

[QUOTE=Uberman77883;15967764]Wait wait wait. So they decided to kill this game using localized instancing?[/QUOTE] How does that possibly kill the game? Whenever i imagine locations from the original KotoR games and then add 500 players, it completely ruins the picture. Having all the places heaviliy populated by jedi or sith, makes no sense besides in big city hubs. I like they have decided taking a more "singleplayer" approach to the mmo. Besides, if there is someone you want to play with, YOU CAN play with them! Also, seeing 10 other people handing in the same quest as you, in a game so focused on story and character is rather stupid too. And with full VO and conversation animations and such it raises other issues. [QUOTE=lum1naire;15952868] Even if Jedis and Sith's are flooded with people playing them, it'll be norm.

LOCALIZED INSTANCING SUCKS BALLS, IF WE WANT TO PLAY WITH PEOPLE WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO INVITE THEM TO A GROUP.

LOCALIZED INSTANCING SUCKS BALLS, IF WE WANT TO PLAY WITH PEOPLE WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO INVITE THEM TO A GROUP.[/QUOTE] Technically if they do localized instancing like Guild wars has, does that not turn it into a CORPG like Guild wars essentially is? So this wouldn't really be a MMO, right?
