I just got my ship and am preparing to leave Coruscant. Just one question though... do you think it's a bit pretentious of me to nickname my ship "The Clap"? :joy: LOL! That's what my friend calls his ship. :giggle1: I'm leveling my comm...  [Read More]

Yep. It looks slick, but you can definitely tell it's star fox style rails. However as much as I like my star fox, one of my favorite things to do on Star Fox 64 was the practice mode that was 360 degree free flight. :indif:...  [Read More]

I dont think its going to be on rails. i think its just going to be semi instanced space. eventually they probably will have free roam space. Hopefully if they take the user backlash into account we'll get free roam space. Forums all over the place...  [Read More]

The designs really aren't surprising. That the Ebon Hawk type is not more similar to the Millenium Falcon is a shock. :xp: I point you back to Tommycat's post: "As for the ships, Those were guesses by the magazine, not the actual ships. Except...  [Read More]

I have difficulty imagining this concept. What exactly is there left to do during a space combat sequence when you don't control the ship. Shoot and hope it hits? So a turret game after all? Sounds more like SW: Rebel Assault (http://en.wikipedia.or...  [Read More]

Small fighter would be pretty dang good for combat and such. Couple of fighters even for companions on non-battleground encounters. Dunno if that would fall too much in line for each class though. I mean Smugglers having a fighter bay? I can't figur...  [Read More]

Battlefront would be okay. I guess what would SW be without boarding ships and such. But then again I love the straight up feel of the X-wing series. Also in terms of space combat I wonder if it goes Battlefront style would you just be restricted to...  [Read More]

This is one issue I was holding my breath on. To me space combat is one of the most integral parts of the SW universe. Really making me happy to see this hit. I can just imagine space battlegrounds with fleets squaring off. It's gonna be classic....  [Read More]

I'm sure Bioware is taking a very imaginative look at the companions and the backstories that can be played around with there. It's not all cookie cutter from the movies. Besides I don't rely remember too many Sith "companions." I just hope...  [Read More]

True enough. One thing with WoW is that it is definitely writing the narrative as it goes. Yes there are major characters from the RTS, but they hold the keys to defining where those major characters go, when and if they get killed off, exiled, etc....  [Read More]

Thermopolae Sure it's only 2500 years, but that's about right. Seeing as how they have galactic records and such, we're talking documented and recorded history. Heck they even use the same language(galactic basic). So yeah, I'd expect the Empire woul...  [Read More]

I'd simply like KOTOR 2 to be playable. I played through the original KOTOR 4 or 5 times. KOTOR2 had so many issues with crashing etc that I finished the game once only through sheer willpower. I tried to go back and tinker with it once I heard this...  [Read More]

I think the latter is what TOR will do. Cataclysm is going to come out this year, no doubts there. And after the initial rush of "zomg new expansion" wears off, people will start to get bored between patches, and that's when TOR swoops in....  [Read More]

So basically they are saying that Revan went solo to face down the "Sith Emperor", he basically single-handedly prevented the sith invasion for 200+ years? I wonder if they'll go into that via the holonet reports eventually. That would be...  [Read More]
