Star Wars: The Old Republic

Oooh! An HK-47 unit!

Too bad it's not the HK-47 unit.

Looking forward to this. Hopefully I have money when it comes out.

Good to hear Jennifer Hale's voice again. Wonder if it'll be a Bastila expy.

She's voicing a Trooper. How can a Trooper be a Bastila expy? =)

^Sexy and awesome; anyone else see those troopers wrecking shop?

Hopefully i'll have a pc that can run it.

1.5M users registered... already. Holy crapballs.

Honestly all these classes are appealing in some way to me. I don't want to play Jedi Consular or Sith Inquisitor though.

So if anyone gets this game what side will they pick ? Republic or Empire ?

I played Scoundrel, healing spec'ed. Pretty damn fun. I could shoot while being solo (pun recognized, not intended), and be the healer in raids.

I also want to be a Sith Inquisitor who makes ONLY Light Side choices.

@ Light-Sided Inquisitor: That's exactly the kind of character that I want to play!

Which one?

I want to be either Jedi Knight/Sith Warrior who are dark/good, Bounty hunter,Imperial Agent or Smuggler. I might play trooper, but not til after these.

This'll be my first MMORPG I can't wait.

Being a Light Side Sith Inquisitor is being a Sith Renegade, basically. You luv the Empire, but you don't like the way it is run.

Being a Dark Side Alliance guy is basically being Anakin Skywalker in full pout mode.

Nah Anakin pretty much wanted an Empire instead of a Republic after he became evil. If you're still loyal to the Republic it should be different.

I want to play for the team that'll have the least number of players.

Actually, it's what Word of God told me. In person.

GRRRRRRRR...... Well there's a Word of God above that Word of God. Its name is George Lucas.

I think i might be bounty hunter first. They're described as Jedi Killers .

^I'm just bummed about how they're split; I can't get blasters and a flamethrower?

Sure you can. Just different specs.

I could of sworn one class was more gadget oriented, and the other more shooty.

Those are ADVANCED classes.

As seen on my blog.

On the Empire side, you have the Boba Fett wannabes, the Bounty Hunters. This class is the only class that can elevate themselves above the fray with jetpacks, and rain down fire with their flamethrower.

Powertech

Once again, this is an example of a tank/ranged split. The Powertech has better armor and prefers to get in close and tank with his thing that sets people on fire.

Mercenary

The Mercenary is an expert at ranged attacks, which will probably lead to some interesting firefights between the hunter and his Alliance counterpart, the Gunslinger.

You can wield a flamethrower - it's just a matter of how effectively you wield it.

^Oh you know what I meant.

Huh. So, can you take command of capital ships?

If I become a jedi/sith, do I have to have a ridiculously huge torso?

Is it only the Sith Maruader that can duel-wield?

What is it with MMO's and awful voice acting?

Also there are male human Bounty hunters right ?

I want to be a Sith Warrior with one lightsaber. I hope that's possible
