Is anyone planning to attempt to play this?
I am seriously hoping i get chosen for a beta, if not, hopefully my comp can run it.
For those who don't know: http://www.swtor.com/
It's set over 3,500 years before the rise of Darth Vader, but three hundred years after the events of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR).
I personally am hoping this will be one of the better MMO's that comes out, and hoping it will finally dethrone WoW in some way or another (Although, knowing Blizz, any original features TORO makes, Blizz will copy them.)
General Idea is you run around as one of 8 Classes, of 2 factions (Sith: Bounty Hunter, Sith Warrior, Imperial Agent, Sith Inquisitor and Republic (Ala, Jedi.): Trooper, Smuggler, Jedi Knight, Jedi Consular). Sure, one side having 4 Lightsaber classes you would expect them to be spammed to hell, but quire frankly, i can see myself going for a Bounty Hunter or a Agents if i went Sith, or a Smuggler if i went Republic.
Apparently there will be a 'lil "Buddy" system (as reviewed by a friend a few months ago.) assuming like Han and Chewie so you can go "Help me out!" and they will come in, guns blazing, or even heal you or something.
Not sure what the gameplay will be like, or whether it will have a massive PVE crowd and a PVP crowd like on most MMO's, where the "Uber hardcore " of each think the other is stupid.
I am -snot- sure if this has been released (Correct me if you know.) but i am REALLY hoping they allow Ship to Ship combat like on SWG, where you start of with a newbie ship, and the first few systems you go into, are protected by your factions ships (and some higher up ones.) and as you progress you can upgrade your ship and get new components or just upgrade your ship entirely, obviously larger ships shouldn't be allowed (Like some freighters and fighters, but not capitals.) otherwise it wouldn't be fair (Can you imagine a Fighter coming out of Hyperspace and come head on with a large capital with 200 guns pointing at it?) freighters like the YT series and Firespray's would be fair on everyone, i think.
