*****Official Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread*****

[Bigpig]

Some new vids;

Teaser to raids/story
2011 E3 Trailer

Expect a new Cinematic on the 6th/7th.
Gotta say the trailer looks more polished, already had my mind set on this game 2 years ago

I had my mind set on this back when the SWG CU hit and rumors where running wild that bioware had got a Starwars License and they started to steal staff

Amazing, its the best out of the three cgi videos they done for this game

 

[No1newts]

Brilliant video because its Star Wars, but lets face we KNOW Star Wars can produce a good video, its just sad the video will probably be tens times better than the gameplay

It's a combination of cgi footage already released.

No it isn't....

No it isn't....

It is, i've seen it before, the footage was mostly of Decieved, Hope of Alderaan and another i can't remember.

When is this game actually set?

This portrays a time when the Sith attacked the old republic and lost, and were al but wiped out? Or is this portraying the rise of the emperor to power?

Either way, 'always two there are, a master and an apprentice' this been debunked now, we got a planet full of Sith?
They just happened to have an entire fleet associated with them also?

Some one explain just what is going on in the universe backstory.

Your wrong is new and never been seen before.

 

[mart981]

Confusion probably because they showed the rehash of the previous one's during the E3 press conference but released the new smuggler vid on facebook.

So is this more than a WoW clone?

 

[Destination]

Oh yes, didn't you read the bit from the sacked member of staff who said the admin and management folks thought the very best bit, the thing they were proudest of, was that all characters were fully voiced.

Amazing, just the thing this sarcastic writer was hoping for.

Wowclone with voice and gunz.... and 'magic' (force)

 

[djkav]

Did i hear that some Raid footage/announcement coming during E3 this week?

 

[nick-fury]

Yes.

I'm sure some an boy is going to come on a tell us it's all radically different, but when it comes down to it, it's very similar. Obviously the setting is different, some will like that some wont. The game does have a bigger focus on Story than WoW as well, but the gameplay will feel identical, the graphic style is very similar, the UI is the same, the end game shows all the signs of being the same as well.

Now I think without a doubt it'll be an incredibly polished experience, and the story will probably make it worth one play through to max level, but ultimately, you're just trading one universe for another.
