Jedi Consular seems like it could potentially be an off tank/DPS role. 

Also it should be noted that I have alt-itis and will probably take a week or two to pick something I will stick with.

If I run an alt. it will definitely be a Trooper Vanguard. My first character will probably be the Jedi Knight: Guardian, though.

I'm fairly nice at tanking classes, from LoL to WoW to Global Agenda.

Mission now is to buy a new PC.   Current 2.6 Gig Dual Core with crappy Geforce 8600 GT isn't going to cut it.  I want everything to be crisp and a Battlefield 3 gaming rig.     


I like the game so far, but I'm really looking forward to what this game is going to be like in a couple years.  Possible Guild ships and hopefully a better space combat engine.   From here on out anythings possible.

As far as I can tell it's definately going to be a paid monthly subscription.   Probably $14.99 a month.  Buying the game supposedly comes with your default first month free.

Yeah,  bioware confirmed it would be sub based but hasnt re vealed exact price...$15 bucks is how nuch WoW is so i doubt it would be more thenthat and yeah any copy of SWTOR comes with 30a days free...so we will see how popular it is once that ends and ppl have to renew...ill prolly say screw it and set up billing when i install

Depending on if they have a discounted yearly subscription I may buy one years worth.   At $15 for a year it's $180.  If a yearly sub is discounted anywhere near $150 I might actually hop on that, if I have the money available.    We'll see when they officially announce pricing in September or so.   Thats when it's expected they also release the start date and the beta plays.

Bioware has confirmed u will be able to swap between adv class specs by retrainging for a progressively higher price tag (in game cash i mean) so sounds like it will work like wow

Looks like as it stands now, Level 10 is when you get to choose your advanced class.   After that you used your class Advanced Tree to further specialise your role.


Everything about this game looks awesome.   Sadly still months away.....  ARGH...

Indeed it does look awesome.  I want it now!

I also want $$ to pre-order and a new video card so... priorities I guess. 

The system specs I could find don't seem too bulky, but I want it to look pretty and not run on medium/low like I've had to do for the few newer games I've played lately (Rift you bastard).

What card is everyone using?  Or planning on using?

I'm going to have to make do with my current system, which is a GeForce 8800 GTX (Not bad) but only has 2GB of RAM (Bad.) RAM is oppressively expensive for this motherboard, so that's kinda a sticking point. But I can't upgrade anyway, cause my money has to go towards making sure Faidth has a system that can run the game. She only has a laptop right now.

My GeForce 9500 is probably better up to the task Cameron.

Although what I want to see an Administorum group get together on is Warhammer 40k: Space marine, which is coming early september.

But on the topic of TOR: Sith deadliness. I just love the evil characters.


POWER! UNLIMITED POWER!

And so on, and so forth.

Sorry Shadow but even though im sure most of us are planning on buying WH40K: Space Marine i know a few of us are anti-multiplayer...also just so you know...you CAN play an evil (aka dark side) republic character...or a good (aka light side) sith character.  Morality will be different from your faction.

I don't have a problem with COOPERATIVE multiplayer. It's competitive multiplayer that bugs the shit out of me.

Will the Old Republic be too big?

At a panel at this year's San Diego Comic-Con SWTOR's lead designer, James Ohlen, revealed that they hope they will be able to keep the game going for decades and expand the game well beyond the 19 major worlds which it will launch with.

He revealed: "Well, I can say that we have 19 major worlds. Then we have an indeterminate number of minor worlds. And our goal, obviously this being an online game, that we're hoping is going to last for decades, we're going to be, obviously, adding more to the galaxy map as the game progresses. We want to add dozens of worlds. Hundreds of worlds eventually. In 2025, we'll hopefully have 500 worlds."



500 WORLDS??????   Holy Crap Batman....     Wow... they want there to be so much crap you can do you'll never be able to see it all.
