The Dialogue system is nice. Although it would suck if someone is a douche in your group and keeps choosing the negative answers or makes the dark side option everytime they get a chance.

I believe I read that even if the dark side choice is made in your group, but you chose the ligh side choice you get the light side points...you wont get penalized for other peoples choices...only your own.

That sounds like a good way to work it out. You shouldn't be penalized for one person's decision, and this makes it so that each party member can do their own thing without screwing the rest of the group.

Neat. Send your allies to do the menial work while you're saving the universe. Excellent time-managing tool.

all i gotta say is the class video makes the consular look pretty badass...now just for the progression video for smugglers and consular

Man, I'm torn between the Consular and the knight.

I don't like stealth classes and healing can be a bore so I'm leaning towards the knight. But it looks like there will be multiple trees for each subclass so dps will always be an option. I'll probably have one of both until I decide on a main.

Decisions...

Tyvaris · « **Reply #66 on:** August 06, 2011, 04:23:58 PM »

The consular video definately sealed my immediate decision to play Consular. Based off the advanced class trees it probably won't matter which class you pick until you choose your advanced class and then you can customize your character even further.

Knight looks awesome too. I can only imagine that they might add more classes later on, 4 does seem sorta small although with the advanced portion it sorta turns it into 8 but anyway.

I'll start as a lowbie healer-esque consular until I can do the Shadow branch and then im going to try to make my character as DPS as possible and a heal as needed basis. Companions will make this a lot more interesting too.

Veldanya Venalla · « **Reply #67 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:34:13 AM »

I agree that 4 does sound small when compared to most other MMO's (for ease of reference....WoW had 9 classes available at release) course as you mentioned Tyvaris that if you count that each class has 2 adv class choices that goes to 8...technically only 1 below WoW (and with just about every class able to dps/heal or dps/tank) SWTOR really isnt trailing behind and in fact pulls ahead in regards to class choice. I also like that you get to choose your adv class at lvl 10 (here's to hoping that 1-10 is at least pretty fast whereas they slow down 10-50 a bit so as to allow you to really get into the action quick but not so fast that you hit lvl cap in a week (no...im not counting people who take 2 weeks off and eat/sleep/breathe the MMO...we all know someone will prolly hit lvl 50 in 1-2 weeks and then prolly bitch and complain that they are bored :-p)

I don't have the time to do something crazy like that. Although I plan to game hard on weekends where I can stay up late. Especially Saturday and Sunday nights. I'll be on late. Mostly Sunday and every other Monday nights. Will be casual hour or so's during the week and no static times. Definately can't commit to anything right now, but if anyone is on Sunday nights I'll probably be on.

Mike is thinking a tankie type. Right now he's thinking Jedi Knight.

I'm thinking I might try a Trooper or a Smuggler. Leaning more towards Trooper.

Still reading up on everything.

Veldanya Venalla · « **Reply #73 on:** August 14, 2011, 05:37:45 PM »

yeah im really interested in trooper/smuggler (seems like thats a common "combo" for people) but decided smuggler was closer to the "rogue" type characters ive been playing a lot in WoW and LOTRO....course ill be making a trooper also at some point

can't say no to the big guns they get to carry around

EA is currently hosting a live conference at Gamescom in Germany right now. The whole conferernce should be available later today on youtube. Supposed to have some new info on SW:TOR and ME:3 and all the other EA games coming out this fall and next year. Very minor possibility they release a release date for Old Republic as this is last major Gaming Con for the summer if I remember correctly.

One interesting announcement already:

“The BioWare Mythic team is exploring new gaming platforms with our longtime partners at Games Workshop. And today we’re pleased to announce Warhammer Online: Wrath of Heroes, a new PvP Play4Free game for the PC.”

Wrath of Heroes is coming this fall – and it is FREE! Watch the Gamescom trailer and sign up for the beta starting today at www.wrathofheroes.com

-------------------------------------------------------------

Probably no release date, just stating that Weekend Betas are starting soon. And they are showing an 8 person demo Operation, live. I can't watch it at work, but im reading the live blog.

So SWTOR is going to gave a big presence at PAX where new info will be revealed....august 28th...sounds like the release date might be part of that new info

Kitharsis · « **Reply #77 on:** August 19, 2011, 04:45:34 PM »

Feh, I might as well pre-order.

I just wish there were system specs out that I could compare against so I could feel better about it. I've bought games that my pc couldn't handle before and its the worst feeling. After the install you are greeted with 5fps and the knowledge that it will cost exponentially more than the price of the game to actually play it...

Frustrating.

Tyvaris · « **Reply #78 on:** August 19, 2011, 08:21:32 PM »

Although it's not 100% confirmed this Swedish website stated the supposed system requirements. I'd guess that if you have atleast these you should be ok:

ahh....and my system handles all that easily
