Hoth is coming! All the time and effort put into it can be seen in the screenshots here:
starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/players/news_archive.vm
All I can say is that I am happy for the current players, and I hope they enjoy their new instance that looks like it was lovingly handcrafted by three year olds. Those graphics must have cost SOE an arm and a leg in milk and cookies...

That's it?? OMG!! I totally agree. ROFL!!!!!
Lol, are they real?
So I guess the wampa in ESB was baby or something?
Honestly, wtf do they thin they're doing....
...The spread of secondary and latterly of tertiary education has created a large population of people, often with well developed literary and scholarly tastes, who have been educated far beyond their capacity to undertake analytical thought.
And the people who pay for this say SWTOR has crappy graphics.
Chapter 11 (creatively bankrupt). 'bout says it all.
SOE can't be that stupid. The graphics look to be about 7 years old. Well I guess that fits their target audience.
That Wampa is a freakin Graul!
Recycled models FTL
Ummm OMG this has to be a joke right?
This is something I could have done in paint in about 5 mins.... very sad, but expected SOE really does hate SWG players despite anything else they say!
Actually most say it's the Art Direction and lack of realistic textures.... Well at least thats what I think anyways...
SOE sure puts their talent on the SWG art team don't they! LMAO!
Tecmo Bowl.
looks like it. Or a rancor. It's really obvious when you compare.
Wow just wow... Anyone who complains about graphics and art in other games should be shown these screenshots because SWG has reached a new low (if that is even possible). But hey look at it this way the 4 or 5 people that still play this steaming pile of failure will be happy with thier new instance...
Good lord, those screenshots were sooooo feeble. I cant believe LA is letting SOE piss all over something as epic as the battle for Echo Base, with an obviously sub-par, canon-ignoring, timeline warp crap-fest. The giant Graul-ish wannabe Wampa thing is just plain ridiculous, the devs are truly clueless...
This was NOT what the community has been asking for all these years in regards to Hoth. What a damn shame to waste such an opportunity for some real content, the SW geek inside me weeps for what could've been.
"Uh, we had a slight weapons malfunction, but uh... everything's perfectly all right now.
We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?"
It looks terrible like all the content they've put in since 2005. I really don't get it because it's like they're rushing and putting now effort into anything. The CU had horrible animations and RotW was just sooo generic and felt like they copied and pasted alot of it over and over again. The NGE was just a mess as we all know and all the content since has been soooo lack luster apart from the Trading Card game which actually has nice art. ToOW with instances like HK47 you just felt like there sno effort put into that what so ever and that Sher'kar thing or whatever which was one of the main instances was just a tiny cave with 5 creatures in it. Everything since just feels like that Sher'Kar cave where it's some empty tiny arena type instance with no effort put into it.
I remember Jabba's Palace and it felt Star Warsy and really kool but this new hoth thing just looks like shit. I mean The snow doesn't even look like snow : Dark n Light did a better job lol. It looks the same old thign where it's a Arena with nothing in it but a creature...... Frigging the Legacy Quests were the same cave and base over and over and overrrrrrrr again. I'm sick of seing the same npc models and clothes and the same textures and building interiors.
I just don't get why they can't put the same effort into the game like Blizzard do with WOW. All their new content is sooooo well made and uses alot of new models and textures.
I just want SWG to die so I can stop caring.
Well judging by...

Vanguard
MxO

I'm wondering if they have an art team at all.
Wow... that is absolutly hidious. That has to be a joke right?

NO! But I can smell the excrement. GOD that looks bad!
(edit) and why the f*** is wampa so big? And how is this the battle of Echo base? Did Rebels fight fucking Wampas? If so that's news to me.
