http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsE9d6wBxuw Looks like the Dark side will be the Overpowered side, We all know by now the side that the Dev. play or favor will be the OP side.

Just becouse that guys says that his personally favorite storyline was with sith makes it op? Ok, thats very unlogical don't you think?
It didn't even slightiest bit hence give you to that sith classes will outpower the jedi classes in game mechanics in any way. You really just wanna troll do you, Warjin. -.-
this post is , funny for many many reasons.
Yes I know, was Joking, well kind of joking, Look at WoW's Horde lol I know Its a poor way to measure balance ,but who can blame me : )
Poeaple thought the same thing in SWG, but The good side was almost 2-1 on most servers, 4-1 on a few, The dark side hardley ever won any server wide activities lol
thats an ok example , but ive played both in wow and just depends on the skill of the player.
Lol, Lets just hope the Sith don't get Warstomp then we are golden
Illogical, not unlogical. Anything else is unpossible.
Skilled and unskilled players will always whine about how they got raped by one class, thats the unbroken circle of the darkside to class balancing, there will always be things to balance becouse one revamp or nerf of this class will often lead to some other class to stepp on highlight of op:ness while other classes then feels gimpy. Even guild wars couldnt manage that' so the answer is we need to road down to make a game with just one class, and every player wil be given only four abilities that is the same for all. That would have been fun, woudln't it? XD
It's unlogical to me for being illogical, sorry for my bad english :P
Your asking somebody unlogical to think. Kinda unlogical don't you think?
Class balancing is a really difficult game to play for the developers. No game has gotten it perfect to date. I find it difficult to believe that the dev's would purposely make one side more powerful overall than the other in a factional warfare game. Of course, then I take into account the terrible class balance that we saw with Mythic's WAR and my hopes start to drop slightly.
Damn you,re right, i've pwned my self. But you can turn something unlogical to something that it understands. Ask my dog, it gets pretty logical why he shouldnt drink my whiskey that I spilled on the ground. Dogs does not suppose to like whiskey right? :S
I find it very hard to believe that the dark side (sith/empire) being the overpowered side, if anything, the overpowered/overpopulated side will be the light/good side (republic)
And lets not forget that either way, knowing Bioware the way we do and judging by their games, pvp will be just a side thing and probably never gonna be as big as the pve focus.
All in all who cares, probably the pvp crowd will just quit this game and search for other things either way
Honestly, judging purely from the videos seen at E3, this game doesn't look like it is "new" enough to justify playing. The playstyle looks approximately the same as every other MMO currently on the market, and either they haven't released or they haven't built in enough innovation to make this game 'pop'.
I tend to agree and share your assessment. Something isn't quite grabbing me about TOR for some reason. It's quite possible that they'll release some information that will do so, especially given how stingy they've been about info (which I understand), but at the moment I am waiting for that extra little...je'ne se qua...to really get me into the project.
I am sure the game will be a success, and I hope the people who are anticipating the game have a great experience. More info would be nice, though.
I agree that it will certanly be a success, if it is wow:ish like everyone said. To bad it will drive some players away from the game while bringing some other type if player to the game. It will always be like that. For me , ill try open beto before really making up my mind. if it fails for me, I just have to wait for GW 2, Rift: heroes of telara or The secret world. Man so many promising mmos in 2011. My life will be ruined.
Good thing both factions - Republic and Sith - can have dark or light side characters then, isn't it?
Wow first "pop" then "Jen'e se qua" . What are game forums coming to? Well as I have said on these forums a few times. This game is a year away. They aren't letting out the "pop" info until they have nailed it down and the "jen'e se qua" isn't usually finalized until after beta. So until then I will save my catchy words for what it lacks or has. Patience padawan.
FFS man how the hell do we know if the dark side or the light side will be overpowered ? The game is very far from release. Stop this idle speculation bull shit and go do something better than speculating on a game that is going to be the next themepark EQ style combat nonsense. How can you have a star wars game without real flight and real flight mechanics?
Good god this game is going be total WOW style fail and make the masses rush back to SWG !!
LOL.
Well, not really, there are many spots on the universe between galaxies where there is a total absence of gravity and the universe doesnt collapse because of that so...its complicated
If you're playing SWTOR for its PVP then you're playing this MMO for all the wrong reasons.
This is a PVE game first and foremost, PVP will be a 2ndary concern

You are correct, the Darkside will be overpowered, but not becaue the developers will be playing it.. It's because I will.
Guess you'll just have to roll with the darkside, or perish to my light sabre, blaster, rocket, force lightning.. or whatever class I choose to dispense of the Republic with.

I really think the republic will be overpowered...hopefully that is the case
My point was going to be isn't gravity a force?
I really think that light sabers only comeing in 3 sizes, discriminates against people with short arms. This concerns me and I think that short armed people who are not inclined towards the dark side, will really suffer in PvP it just is not right the devs should change this.
I feel I have really contributed to this speculative thread.
