After reading further into his AMA, it appears that it's NOT an SWG relaunch. But still an SWG type game is just as appealing for me.

I understand completely. I keep telling myself "Don't get your hopes up. This man is EVIL!!!! He destroyed it and sits on a throne of lies!!!", but dammit....I'M SO FREAKIN' EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I want it to fail as a MMO.
I've played every class, finished all class stories. It's a WONDERFUL RP game like the KOTORs before, but it's an awful MMO. And while it's around, there won't be another Star Wars MMO. So yes, I very much want…
I couldn't AGREE more with this review. It's definitely not for everyone, but for me, I've highly addicted to this game!! The learning curve isn't really bad at all, but it does take time to master. You will NOT be a good player at all when you f…
Yes it does. Like it or not, those who post and even view these forums do so because at one point in time this game was one of the best games they ever played. You don't keep talking about a game you hate for 5 YEARS after you left, or 7 YEARS aft…

It just goes to show that, outside of SOE itself, there is very little that the so-called "vet" hates more than someone who still plays a game they don't.…
On xFire, about one year ago SWG was averaging around 3,000 hours a week from xfire players.
I checked today and the average is 1,000 hours...peaking at 1,500 and sinking to below 500 on certain days.
Given the new stats, it won't be long b…
Actually if SOE is smart (HA!), they will wait until about 1 - 2 months AFTER SW:TOR is released to open a classic server. Many old vets are going to flock to that game thinking it will be somewhat like old SWG...but of course it won't be. It …

I would like to see pre cu, probably right before NGE though I enjoyed pre patch 9 a bit more however pre 9 didn't have JTL or a number of annoying bug fixes.
However I think CU would be more successful. A lot of vets have moved on beyond the p…

Yesterday I decided to swing by the SWG sony forums just to see what's been going on. In my home server of Ahazi, a long time player posted some his old screenshots from pre cu/cu times. I looked through them, saw myself and old friends in a few,…
Smed addressed that. He said at one point in development that there were plans for console versions, but they were scrapped a couple months after SWG went live.
3 reasons, all of which are fairly equal
Money. SWG certainly does not have budget for it and doubt they ever will again
Ego. Looks bad on them. Shows they were wrong (even though the entire world knowns it) and second rule of business is to …
SWG was suppose to be the game that WoW is today. All critics thought SWG would be the first American MMO to break 1 million subs and then some and all were predicting it. So of course Sony made enough servers to handle all these subs, which I ho…
