is this a disney or a star wars game? the game gets more and more "cartoony", this sucks, it looks they have design it for 12 year old kids!
I expect it will be better looking by the time it comes out. As I'm sure you're aware, this is not the finished product. Besides you could say the same about WoW and that game has 11 million subscribers doesn't it?
Unlike SWG, there shouldn't be Medics. They want a game that better reflects the films. There were no living medics ever in the films and thus are leaving such mundane tasks for droids. Will there be exceptions? Maybe for exspansions.
I think the posters mention of "casters" is pretty on the mark. We shall wait for the announcement.
BH and Trooper are most likely the "Casters", if you can even call it a caster seeing as this isn't a fantasy MMO. I see a Medic being next. Remember this isn't the films so there could well be medics.
I was hoping for some sort of class which would allow us to expiriance Grand Moff Tarkin and Zam Weasel-like ways. I am really excited that they mentioned these two classes, though I though Zam was a Bounty Hinter? it makes sense I suppose. I just hope in an expansion or something, we can play into the Grand Moff class. But as for the next two classes, I would think the caster class is the way to go. Man thing the sith and jedi could have combat trees like in WoW and that ma be, et BioWare keeps referring to these classes as melee classes. I can't wait to see what they come up with next!!!
If you want this game to be like WoW you're in for a rude surprise. Bioware would never put out a cut and paste copy of a game. If you like WoW so much I don't recommend you ever leave it.

Trust me, I'm not in for another WoW, I was thinking aloud. For the record, I left WoW months ago and am eagerly awaiting a SWTOR. (currently playing Aion).
.... this looks and sounds awesome! As for the other classes left, I'm guessing Medic is one of them since a lot of their classes are just copying the ones that SWG has. Smuggler, Spy, Jedi, BH, Commando (trooper)... so I'm guessing Medic. I doubt they'll copy entertainer.
Didn't they already say there would be a healer type class in the game? something about having the 3 general MMO classes DPS, tank, heal? I think I read that on the SW:TOR forums.
as someone else mentioned my (SPECULATION) is that each class will have advancement and further specialization akin to what is found in KOTOR and Dragon Age. Meaning (again speculation) that you would start as a jedi then around maybe level 10 or something you choose either guardian, counselor or sentinel and have specific quests, trainers and story line develop from those. Of course the choice would also include a smaller set of specialized abillities that makes you identifiable as that Jedi arch type. You would retain core Jedi abillities to choose from probably duel wield specializations, defense and offense mods etc. It really isn't all that different than the WoW trees and it gives the abillity to make 8 classes seem like 24 if done correctly. I find that route most believable because it is Biowares signature in recent games and they are going to use more than cut scene, voice over acting and player plot choices to put the familiar Bioware stamp on the game.
As for what the last two would be? My guess is that they will include the ranged attack pet user like pet handler for light side and droid engineer (droid pet user) for dark or something like that. Pet users are a pretty unviersally excepted and adored class type.
My dream would be a straight up droid class and a pure caster type. I'm not super up on all the cannon and lore for star wars and maybe magic outside of the force does not exist. But I swear I remember one or two mentioned in the darth bane series but it was awhile since i read book one and two.

It could either be a Medic type or perhaps a Doctor.....atleast that's what I think it might be
Odela, your statement on the release of the Jedi Consular and Sith Inquisitor has caused quite a stir over on the official SWTOR boards. If you could drop by and tell us more we would appreciate it.

Imperial Agent ?? should be republic agent . Imperial Agent won't exist till vader kills the republic. unless i'm missing some historic event.

Well I found the class I'm playing!

Have to say I saw this one coming a mile away. That being said, the class itself looks pretty cool and I look forward to its holonet writeup.
Now, the question to prove my theory right. Are the last two classes support?

I need a new MMOG
Frankly, I am getting excited about this game. I just hope it doesn't disappoint.

Looking at the female of the 4 pics I have to say [ again ] wth is with the deformed jaw bone on the females shown in screen shots of SWTOR!
Is every female character in the game going to have that weird face deformity?
