SW: TOR

[Manic Velocity]

Definitely want to be a smuggler.  Space + Pirates = Win

"Q4 2010" is probably the closest thing to a release date that I'll believe from any source.  If they are projecting for October 2010, it's a fair bet to say that it will be pushed back to December.

What happened to your dream of being the galaxy whore?!?

I could never hope to surpass the one-and-only.

Is it too early to make a post to the swtor forums?

C'mon... if we're playing, we've gotta be Jedi.... like all the other wanna be's...


Sometimes being the good guy comes with competition

[Fuse]

I'll follow FA wherever, but I REALLY want to be Sith...

You can be a Jedi and then fall to the dark side thus becoming a Sith but you are still aligned to the Republic

And vice versa.

[ZephixLeer (Zephic)]

I'm fairly certain that if you fall to the darkside you cannot be aligned to the republic. Surely it would just mean that you can fall to the darkside and switch. You aren't tied into a specific good/evil story-arch. The republic wouldn't allow for a sith to be truely aligned with them. Perhaps more likely would be a jedi who had once been sith and turned back to the light side; thus having sith powers and being a jedi who is republic aligned.

I'll be severly disappointed if they allow a true sith to be republic aligned only because that's how he started the game...

[Setun]

Trooper all the way baby!  I wanna rifle butt a sith square in the crotch and laugh at him!

We have no form of recruitment currently in place for SWTOR. When we arrive on the scene, I'd prefer it be in style.

Judging by the website, the classes are clearly divided into "blue" and "red". Trooper and Smuggler so far for the blue - Bounty Hunter and Sith so far for the red. I did see an interview where they said that a "dark" Sith and a "light" Sith would still be able to group up, but I don't think you can cross the alliance lines like that.

I'm going to play a lesbian vampire Wookie Jedi.  My goal is to single-handedly end all war and bring peace to the universe.

Seriously though, Smuggler looks fun.  

[Tbone]

Normally I play a ranged or support class, but as a leader of a Jedi/Republic group, I feel like I should be a Jedi. I'm just hoping that my gut is right and that 80% of the population is going to be Sith/Bounty Hunter. I don't want to be the "most popular" class...heh.

[Subb]

Well, I'm going for a Jedi - just for a glowing stick:) Then I'll play as a Smuggler for an alt toon

Hm, I dunno T - as a leader you could be a Trooper who's a General or something along the lines of that. Or you could be a Colonel who takes commands from the Senate etc. etc. That's if we do choose to be the good guys (which, I guess we are)

I honestly think that no one wants to be the 'popular class' (which most people think - Jedi) so a lot will migrate to the bounty hunter and smuggler classes, IMO.

[Tbone]

Yeah, but taking orders from the Senate is too run-of-the-mill for us. We gotta be an elite, black ops force, remember?

[Manic Velocity]

Everyone wants to be the popular class.  That's why it's the popular class.  

[Heironymus]

yeah.. it seems that with this game (even though technically we know the outcome) they want you to feel like going sith is the way to potentially win even though we know they "are gone"

as for which side we play.. we are the FURIOUS ANGELS... angels indicating good but furious indicating we could align towards the Sith side if we want to play it off as the Republic poses the greater evil...

and to our advantage a lot of people will probably be leaving Galaxies for this game.. meaning they will probably want bounty hunter and sith...
