They're going to have to do something crazy with the colours since they will all look the same no matter if it's junk, epic, level 1 or level 50. There won't be much satisfaction from how higher level lightsaber loot looks since all they can really change is a hilt you will barely see. As you get up in levels the "blade" will get longer and thicker  |

  As far as light saber colors go, I'd rather they made red, blue, and green the default colors. Other colors like yellow, orange, etc. could be drops, DLC, or quested. The really out there colors like gold, silver, black, purple I'd rather were only available from some longish quest chain. There's a part of me that would like to see them limited to one per server, too, so that they maintained their uniqueness, but I know that'll never happen. |

Wouldn't be very practical given the player churn rate. Don't know if there's anything enjoyable in knowing the colour you'd like to have had already dropped for a guy who was last seen a year ago. |

I'm not *actually* suggesting this, but it would make for an awesome FFA PvP mechanic. Want the orange lightsaber - so and so has it - kill him and take his lightsaber!

That tracy morgan pic kind of summarizes everything I think I will hate with this game. All that story, setting, voice acting and character building will have to be right next to Tracy Jordan: Jedi Master, cause that's who we'll all be playing alongside.

Yeah, I know, thats why I'm not actually suggesting it, as I mentioned. People like that are why we can't have nice things. |

I think I'm against actual exclusivity in MMO's. The appearance of exclusivity is fine, but I prefer if there is some way for me to have what I want.

If i'm not mistaken the regular KotOR had specific colour for each of teh jedi classes, at least for the initial saber you'd craft. You could then swap it for another if you felt like it and managed to get another crystal from the vendor or loot drop. Maybe they'll use the same approach in the online version.

You know it'll be walled off behind some raids to keep casual players from ever seeing one. Because the fact that it's there will drive them to keep playing! |

Given the recent MMO trends the colour crystals will be probably RMT item...
... with limited durability.

it works on me though, yanno. I'll raid for a purple crystal.
Strangely though I only seem to raid for the purpose of vanity. I only give a fuck about how things look!

I'm exactly the same. Clearly the next big thing should be mount armor so we have more stuff to show off. |

Speaking of internet line dancing...anyone else getting a little worried about TOR's implementation of it? Or rather the complete lack of news regarding it? Would have thought that as polished and stuff as things have come along, we would have heard a piece about end-game by now. E3 maybe? |

My Bounty Hunter Mega-Neato has weaponized an anti-midichlorian serum originally intended to cure sith, that he will now use in a war against all force-users.

You know, I think about it now...after watching it a couple dozen times.
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how a Sith ninja would just stand there and cloak, let itself get detected and continue to just stand there as Rambo runs up to her and knifes her in the face.
Either BW's choreographers need some work, or they're trying to show what a Sith looks like when played by an eBay'er?

They're used to standing there taking blaster bolts. It's not a far stretch that you can use a knife instead.
Sadly, another cringe-worthy video.

Cringe-worthy is a bit harsh. While not up to the standards of the 'what it means to be a sith' video, I thought the trooper looked pretty cool.

As a person who was only considering playing a trooper, the stealth detected Rambo-knife-gun-em-while-they-are-down shit gave me monkeywood.
