You forget that the people who play wont be the only people in the game. There is a shit ton of NPCs. Also remember that each jedi is a skilled masterful warrior, at least at Knighthood. Not all soldiers, bounty hunters, smugglers, are masterful. Just look at the stormtroopers or the clones from the movies. You sure see a lot of them die...So it would be supposition that the people who play this will be part of that elite group of soldiers smugglers etc etc. My guess is you wil have a lot of NPCs around in battle(with lil to no contribution of course, cant have the game fight for you).Kaleion said:
The dog fighting is basically a rail shooting thing like WoW's bombing missions. I just thought you should know that so you don't get the game thinking "Open world dog fights woo!".aldowyn said:
OT: Looks pretty good. I might get it after a while. I'd rather them work out all the grand opening bugs before I play.
My main interest in this game stems from the Timeline [http://www.swtor.com/info/holonet/timeline] updates because it lets you glean a bit more back story around KOTOR. However this game looks a bit mediocre. So many elements of the existing Star Wars universe copy pasted into a different timeline, ruining the chance they got at doing something new.
Sure the game looks great, but all it took was one look at the gameplay demos and I knew exactly what they were trying to mimic, Star Wars Galaxies. This game will last maybe up to it's New Game Enhancements where it goes from 85-100% WoW clone and then it'll die.
I say old chap said:Good point...however. Have you read the book version of Episode 3? (As per usual, the book is WAY better than the film, imo.) According to that, the reason Obi-Wan was chosen to go after General Grievous was because of his mastery of the most basic lightsaber technique. He didn't do flourishes, he didn't do fancy, he didn't do flash, and he didn't bounce around the battlefield like a damned pinball. Straight-up, basic technique. *shrug* I think we Jedi will do okay.Nile McMorrow said:
Back OT: Trailer looks great. Looks effing playable to me. I was hoping, with a 2-minute trailer consisting strictly of IG footage, that the last card would have a release date. Talk about a let-down.
To Bioware: You don't need to build any more hype about this game. You don't need to create any additional enthusiasm. You've already got us home from the bar, three sheets to the wind and our tops are off. Stop teasing us. RELEASE DATE. NAO!!!

I imagine it's safe to say EA/Bioware (not to mention every other freakin' developer on Earth) has learned from SOE's colossal f**k-up; they're unlikely to whip the rug out from underneath their players post-release. Patches, sure...tweaks, maybe even rebalancing passes, okay...but nothing on the scale of the NGE.
If you really like post-NGE SWG, then by all means...go play it. People are talking about TOR like it's going to be "the next WoW," or, FSM help us, "the WoW-killer." Puh-leeze. WoW *IS* the 800-lb gorilla in the room, with previously unimaginable levels of success. I don't want TOR to do that (though if it did, yay!); I'll be perfectly satisfied--no. It will be the happiest day of my life if TOR nails shut the coffin lid on SWG & SOE is forced to close the servers. I will dance naked in the streets. Calloo! Callay!
I learned my lesson from WoW. When this comes out, my friends and I are rolling Sith on a PvP server....kill the goodie-tooshoo 8 year olds!!!

Peace is a lie. There is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Hehe, that's actually a major plot point of KotOR II. I wonder if they'll address that at all.I say old chap said:
I'm curious to know how many MMOs you've played.TimeLord75 said:
Believe me, I see this game being great for the short term but it won't last once the storyline is up on the Wikipiedia and the walkthroughs are out. Take a look at how the gameplay is, how the moves are made and the skills are worked. Is it really any different from already superpower WoW? No, it isn't. I predict is going to live for a long time, but thrive in the short term. Unless BioWare can give this game a free-to-play treatment, they're in trouble. Oh, and before you jump on the F2P-P2P bandwagon, take a look at Perfect World International, that's the model I'm talking about.
Looks good. It would look better if it were a single-player game, but I'll try to reserve my judgement for when the actual game comes out.
Also, that's an interesting point raised by a few people; How will they balance the game with Jedi? It'll be kind of jarring having thousands of glowstick-wielding berks running around with scarcely a smattering of the other classes there to balance things.

I hope you realize all the little kiddes will be playing Sith because it's dark and edgy.80sGuy said:I learned my lesson from WoW. When this comes out, my friends and I are rolling Sith on a PvP server....kill the goodie-tooshoo 8 year olds!!!
