DONT hurry up please. Conan and Warhammer Messed up because they rushed for a release.

Im not saying rush it, I just want it :P

First time they have shown the interface out of closed doors actually, sneaked in there.
One thing people always need to remember is - work first polish later.
Think how wow looked in alpha or even beta to what it was when it launched.

New Trailer

oh & some in game footage

That new trailer has to be some of the best CG I have ever seen.
-
No doubt the cinematic is the intro to the game so thats the best bit over and done with, no need to play the rest like in WoW. At the time I remember thinking how great that was.
Would be interesting to see the distribution of classes on launch. 9/10 characters are going to be jedi or sith lol with the non force characters likely someones alt ><

Smuggler here... been a smuggler from before this game was a twinkle in the developers eye. I was a smuggler in SWG too. :)

Well the time period the game is set in allows for lots of jedi and sith running around. And theyve made the other classes just as good so they can all compete. Plus I think there are plenty of people who actually like the idea of something like a smuggler or a bounty hunter more than a jedi.

Looking at that IG footage it would be smuggler for me as well, in all MMO type games I have always gone for ranged dps type classes and seeing the game is built with Jedi and Sith included in the balancing (unlike SWG) hopefully it will make the game impossible to play in a group environment if all where just Jedi’s.

Lots of people tried to play as a bounty hunter on SWG. Problem was it was always messed up. A good implementation would appeal to people. With the verticality of the worlds being created you can bet your life jet packs will come into play. I like the concept of the Jedi/Sith Healer classes as you can still do damage, you still have a nice coloured stick to mess people up with but then your not the norm DPS jedi most will try and be.

Warhammer didnt exactly "rush" a release. It was being devloped for a while but got scrapped then picked up again.
Its main problem is World of Warcraft. Warhammer online was no more or less bugged than WoW, EQ, SWG, FFXI etc on release. Sadly for them most of its player base was already hooked on WoW, FFXI etc and developed a much lesser tolerance for bugs, login servers down etc.
WoW makes more money from people changing their name, sex and buying ingame pets which dont do anything than Warhammer made from all its incomes. Sadly this resulted in them laying off half their developers due to the recession effectivley putting the game in "Maintaince Mode" mostly.
In short WoW has the power to elbow everyone out the way. Star wars has an advantage of Star Wars nerds (like me) are more inclined to give it a chance since its Star Wars and Lucasarts are likely smart enough to do an analysis of where WoW has gone right and wrong and learn from it.
Heres hoping it rocks, SWG was decent for a while. Lets hope this is legend.

I hope other people will be characters other than Jedi, but if theyre anything like me only something extreme will stop me being a jedi. Something like a self lobotomy or along those lines

You seem to forget that Warhammer was run by GOA in europe, a burden for many ex DAOC players rather than a blessing so i hear.
On topic, which class to play, as yet i am undecided but i did play both a Smuggler and Bounty Hunter in SWG, the BH was best by far for the loot from NPCs i.e weapon upgrades and the like could be sold for extreme amounts of ingame currency if they were good quality. :D

I loved playing a smuggler (I was itching to get a YT-1300 but never made it) but when i played there were no consquences for crime :(
Stormtroopers would literally watch you slice terminals and walk through Starports with ARMFULS of sliced weapons.
I heard they changed that which sounds fun :)
In any case, smuggler all the way. Solo is THE legend of Star Wars :D
