The only reason I'm even planning on playing a Consular at all is because we need someone in our guild who ISN'T a smuggler or Fordel.

I love the Bounty Hunters is Star Wars lore, but they looked pretty damn dull in that video. Not to mention the Mercenary armor looked very oddly proportioned.

Yeah I'm not planning to really touch any of the Jedi classes until I'm on my later alts, because YAWN JEDI. Unless they get to make out with Han Solo, then I will be doing them earlier. Gimme those dark side points, baby.

I'd pretty much written off rolling anything other than a Jedi/Sith to start, but that video makes bounty hunters pretty tempting looking.

Trooper with the dos/healer spec. Will probably be my first healer in an MMO ever.

I'm looking at Sith inquisitor, but I'm not sure which sub spec. I haven't been following the game too closely (don't want to spoil it) but have the devs said anything about healing? Will non-healing spec inquisitors be at all useful, or will they be WoW Rogues with lightsabers?

Since I can't be a fucking droid, I'll probably go full emo healer, whatever class that is.

I hear the Sith heal animation involves pacing and brooding. That seems right up that alley.

Yeah, it's hillarious and brilliant at the same time. May make a Sith at some point just for that.

I think they showed it in the e3 gameplay demo, it looked a tad silly, but none the less totally appropriate. It was like the Sith was so indignant that someone had the gall to attack him that it just made him feel better to be all emo about it.

I had an epiphany today regarding the crafting schemes and how you'll employ your minions to go out, do shit, and come back later. Depending on how long and how much you invest in their mission/task, the greater the return. The epiphany was how this is no different than how many Facebook games operate when it comes to cooking/growing/construction type games, and that in those FB games, there's a little button in every one that allows me to, in exchange for real money, speed that shit up. ...and that, knowing that EA loves money, such a button would one day make it's appearance in TOR

Better yet, let's share this idea with the EVE thread, since their ship building and research uses the same model and they're at the peak of RMT introduction craze atm

221 Pages of hopes dreams and concerns, with some information here and there. I just hope this thing turns out fun. I just want a nice star wars mmo i can kick it in for a while and pretend that I am a nefarious bounty hunter feared across the republic.

Everyone here thought the first twenty levels of Age of Conan was incredibly fun because they did with Tortage a very basic version of what SWTOR is trying to do for the entire game, we already tried the voiced over storyline based leveling experience and it WAS incredibly fun.

It was incredibly fun for that 20 levels. We'll find out if it works for 50. I'm all so I can't say one way or another...

Whoa, I've just seen some "unofficial" pics (on a website where I guess 99% of people who are interested in the game currently go for a daily visit, but hey, NDA is NDA :P) of a certain SWTOR planet with maxed out graphics in high-res, and the visuals at least look simply breathtaking and very immersive. Can't wait to set foot on it :)

Easily. Once beta starts picking up and there's more open discussion allowed those last 75 pages will fly by.

One hundred pages of mad libs once the NDA loosens.
I'm really digging EVENT that the CLASS goes through, and COMPANION is well done. I've been having a lot of fun on WORLD but the GAME COMPONENT doesn't seem fleshed out very well. Hopefully they will be looking at it soon after they finish polishing OTHER GAME COMPONENT.
Surely it's not impossible that one of you can get me in the beta, ay? My eight hojillion dollars of computer parts arrive tomorrow and I want to turn swtor into a comic.

I have yet to be in an alpha or beta where the graphics weren't WAY better before they got gutted, err, optimized. I'd much rather see the EQ2 route of releasing with a ton of headroom than have things artificially cut out. Really sucks seeing an area where you knew you could once see for miles, and now you can only see for a couple hundred meters.

I just want SWTOR to be good since the majority of the people I played with in my "Killed by Catacylsm" WoW guild love Star Wars and are going to play it.

Nope - that's pretty spot on from what I can tell.
The differences with WoW are the conversation options, companions, crafting (in that you can get companions to do it) and romances. Plus I gathered that there would be a few solo instances a la LOTRO/GW.
End game is raids, pvp, dailies or re-roll.
I won't believe it till I see a video

I won't believe it till I see a video Won't believe that there are actually romances or that the devs intend for their to be romances? They've spent a couple of years talking about it and as pretty much every game they've made contains the options, I'd be surprised if they didn't.

I'm not talking about WoW. The first time I remember it was in EQ1. You could sit at Felwithe palace and see the texture of the entrance hall rear wall at the full clip plane. After release, the far clip plane didn't extend that far and you saw sky in the tunnel instead of a wall. The last time is
