phew! they restored most of the hype lost in me from the payment method thing
i like watching them talk because it looks like they know what they're talking about
(watching the AoC developers talk was painful.. they'd say something and then go.. "does that sound good with you?") - this team looks like they know what they want to do with the game (except the payment method of course! lol)
Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the questions.
Yeah And they said there was some other things that they have yet to tell us about. Looks like they nailed the Jedi thing, can't wait to see what other types of combat they put in.
Bioware really know what they are doing, brilliant company! i cant wait for this game
My idea of gaming heaven right here
Looking real good.
I like. Nuff said. ^^
Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?
Final Fantasy 7
Also noticed some hints of a sandbox MMORPG and the combat system looks great.
Their decision to not make the game's graphics look "real" (even they say that in this trailer) is flat out, the wrong decision.
Star Wars is an action-drama, one that they're going to try to bring to LIFE, and by not making it look REAL graphically... they're reducing the seriousness of the story and thusly reducing the drama of this so-called best-Bioware-game-yet tenfold.
And the clothing still looks like Star Trek.
And when are lightsabers going to be taken true-to-theme? Sitting there whacking repeated at that giant spider creature and you're not cuting it to pieces with each swing? I'm sick of that in Star Wars games. Lightsabres are supposed to cut things to shreds, not beat them to death like brightly colored baseball bats. One swing, one kill. Thats how lightsabers roll, damnit.
Want something that looks super real but plays like super trash, go play AoC. I like the way they made it look.
Made my day.
Very nice pre alpha footage,
Waiting for Fallen Earth, World of Darkness, Old Republic, FFXIV
STIFFY!!!!!!
Its the alpha footage..
How can they talk about LIVING in the Star Wars universe, when their game is going to be 100% soloable? This isn't an MMO, this is just a glorified singleplayer game.

Link me to the place where it is said that the game is 100% soloable...otherwise, please go back to the DF Forums and flame Trolls there. You're coming off as a hypocrite if you troll in one forum and complain about trolls in another.

Are you serious? Designed to be soloable?

Two instances. The very first website FAQ they said the game will be "mostly soloable" and then in a Q&A they pushed it to "100% soloable."
Add that to the microtransactions they are doing, no thanks.

If the game being soloable is the only reason you are not going to play this, you have serious problems.
Skeptic I am, but good this video is...
Microtransactions, currency exchange.....A Jedi craves not these things.....

Why would I pay money monthy for a singleplayer game? Obviously you're of the WoW generation who only groups when he has to get phat loot.

yeah - the next WOW killer!!!
well, at least it looks like WOW anyway
kidding

Quote from the official website:
Can I play alone?
While there are some tasks that cannot be completed without the cooperation of others, the majority of the game can be accomplished by playing alone.

I did play WoW for the longest time, and if you had played on a PvP server you'd know almost everyone is in groups, ALL the time.

MMOGs should be designed around small groups like a six person group. That way if you still want to solo it is more challenging and you still have access to most of the content because group content becomes solo content as your character becomes more powerful. If you design a MMOG to be soloable from the start, then it become a joke because it is too easy and everyone is off soloing. Community suffers from this dummy down type of design.
as for the 100% solo play
doubt it - other than you are not FORCED to group but i'm gonna bet that there will be lots of stuff to do if you want to group
hope to get some info on microtransactoins cause the video did peek my interest
Vid was awesome. Thanks for the link.
We'll see how they handle the MT thing, if that is even true. We don't know the details yet. IMO Bioware is one of the few companies that get it right almost universally, so I have faith this one is going to be awesome. Can't wait. There really isn't anything else even promising to me right now.
