    Surprisingly I've read every book and yes they're an amazing read.

The bad thing for me is that I have state exams at the end of this year which is also a bit of a good thing to be honest because I will have something to focus on during the summer instead of daydreaming about ToR. But then again if they open European beta, which I think they will, and I get picked it's game over for the exams Talk about wrong priorities....
    Now now Ash, education should always take precedence over a game. :P Like I'm one to talk since I plan on taking a week off just to play ToR. LOL I'm such a hypocrite :P

    Dammit, I'm craving Tor bad now =.=
    I just looked back at what I did today:
    Played Mass effect for a couple hours.
    Vegetated to a firefly/cowbody bebop marathon
    popped in Kotor 2 and hit up SWG for the last day of the trial I started a week or so back.

    I need to step back from the space games for a minute and hit up Game of Thrones.

    Well, from the accidental leak from the Razor rep saying their TOR products will probably be out in November, we have a wait. Expect the game Oct/early November.

    Bah! I remember hearing the guy saying that but it never clicked. Ugh... I hate the waiting game.

    it could be november or its not.. a lot of places put November as a placeholder date, but we will have to see

    im curious as to when they say they won't tell the date because it will be funny.. i wonder if its a hint anything

    Something i had thought of .. no auto attack possibly being detramental to the game. well i just recently jumped on the emu server for the first time in a long while. Started leveling up a brawler and realized. SWG never had auto attack either. There was a basic atack but you had to press it. so yea .. i don't think no auto attack will be a problem.

    i think no auto attack would work fairly well, make people pay attention instead of setting your person to auto and alt tab for a moment, or play the 360 or what ever system they have

    As long as there is no ''auto-attack'' ability that is off the GCD and needs to be spammed the whole time there shouldn't be a problem, casters usually don't have one either. If it's neccesairy to spam something the whole time to keep up in damage, pray it can be macro'd, though I doubt Bioware would be so stupid to design the combat that way.

    If u didnt see the point i was trying to make i bid u farewell and wont respond to you anymore , because its pointless arguing with ignorant people...

    So I just checked a video of the starting area I will be starting in, and I really love the highlandish style mixed with the concrete compounds and ruins. And yes I'm gonna be a Jedi Knight just like Luke and I don't give a damn of what you think about it, you evil Sithies!!

    Too bad if I choose a Trooper I can't pull an Order 66 on ya'. I would love to see your smug Jedi face when you see a big ass cannon firing at you.

    But ... but.. why would you want to do that anyway? We're supposed to be in it together this time besides all I'd want to do is save the galaxy and make it a better place for the lesser gifted

    edit: Bah after not having paid attention to this game for several years, and now getting into it more and more, I'm really sad it's not out yet lol.

    I mean having your own pet Wookie (smuggler I suppose?), how friggin' cool is that?!

    It also reminds me of my lack of knowledge of the Star Wars universe -,-
    The more time I spend on SW-wiki the more pages I end up with to read

    The problem with that is, CS is billed as an online PvP game. That's the selling point. So, CS is PvP with SOME PvE elements. MW and CoD games would be similar. It's a PvP game with a PvE element. The focal point of those games is the PvP.

    It's just like in WoW, all the news you see, hear and read is about the new raiding tier ... oh and hey a new PvP Season. BW has even stated that leveling up through PvP isn't recommended and will be very difficult. It doesn't FORCE you to PvE, but you'd be better off doing the PvE portion.

    Not saying I won't PvP in SWTOR. Just as long as it's not as bad as WoW's.

    To the people that has been/are in beta, with how many ablities does your average advanced class end up with? And I mean the total amount, so also the shared ones.

    They haven't released all ability info yet, so it's hard to say how many you could have at mx level. In the demo videos people had 2 action bars, so could say atleast 24 abilities.

    well on the first page under 10 things that make TOR stand out

    9. Cinematic combat: Unlike most other MMOs where you have 1 generic animation for each action (different for different races and genders maybe), and sometimes even repeated animations. Here we see jedi blocking attacks from different angles and characters getting knocked backwards mid jump, etc. The subtle animations are amazing to see and make you appreciate the depth that the team took it to.


    im sure it goes under different names

    but cinematic combat sounds fancy
