Who is seriously going to be playing this game? Do you think we could form some kind of group so that we all go to the same server? Just interested in knowing. I don't want to fuckered it up on the first day.

I will probably play that game!

im getting it when it comes out!

noel · Post by **noel** » September 10, 2002, 5:24 pm

I'll at least check it out. Too early to determine if it will be worth playing. I've played several other MMORPGs, and the only one I've ever consistently had fun playing was EQ.

really not sure i want to get hooked on another one.

depends on how many friends/guildmates migrate to it.

masteen · Post by **masteen** » September 10, 2002, 5:38 pm

I too much of a Star Wars fanboy to not give it a shot. The dev team looks like they have their shit together.

They biggest concerns I have are for the community. There are a LOT of 8-14 year old kiddies looking forward to this game, and frankly, I've met few from this demographic I enjoy interacting with in-game.

kyoukan · Post by **kyoukan** » September 10, 2002, 5:41 pm

Yeah because the ratio of retards in EQ is so low.

masteen · Post by **masteen** » September 10, 2002, 5:49 pm

You have to admit that the fucktard ratio has gotten worse as the game became more popular. I'm just afraid that SWG is gonna be so overwhelmed with d00ds, l33t J3|)1 kNiGhTs, and retards that the white noise of stupidity becomes unbearable.

Drolgin Steingrinder · September 10, 2002, 6:15 pm

I'm hoping they'll announce some SUPER FANCY XTRA COOL SERVERS and some regular servers, perhaps the 12 year olds will all go to the SUPER FANCY XTRA COOL SERVERS and the rest of us will be able to play the game.

Ebumar · Post by **Ebumar** » September 10, 2002, 6:23 pm

Once again, verant is the devil. I will not play it.

Cotto · Post by **Cotto** » September 10, 2002, 6:54 pm

I'll be easy to spot at any rate. I'll be the only person with no legs due to my inability to use a lightsaber

Millie · Post by **Millie** » September 10, 2002, 7:14 pm

If it's anything like the Warcraft III Battlenet crowd, count me the heck out. Considering the young-skewing and broad appeal of Star Wars, I imagine it'll be even worse.

Canelek · Post by **Canelek** » September 10, 2002, 7:57 pm

I am interested in seeing how many variations of Boba Fett for a screenname the youngsters will come up with.

Kguku · Post by **Kguku** » September 10, 2002, 8:03 pm

they'll probably charge 39.95/month anyways.

If that's the case I won't even bother, but if it's the same price as EQ i'll try it out for a month or two.

noel · Post by **noel** » September 10, 2002, 8:03 pm

If the Sony messageboard for this game is any indication of the kind of catassery worshiping this game, expect to see Darth <insert any word here>, <insert any word here> Fett, and a host of other cheesy ripoff names...

Aranuil's Law: All future MMORPGs will suck ass because their popularity has exceeded the publisher's ability or willingness to provide good customer service, and enforce their rules when there isn't money at stake.

Take that to the bank.

Truant · Post by **Truant** » September 10, 2002, 10:28 pm

Aran I agree with you only regarding the present state of MMOG's

I honestly think that something new is coming that will surprise all of us.

I just don't know where or when

noel · Post by **noel** » September 11, 2002, 12:30 am

I hope your right dude. I remember EQ before it gained popularity, and I can tell you that it was a better place. Maybe I have a selective memory, but that's how I see it.

Akaran_D · Post by **Akaran_D** » September 11, 2002, 12:52 am

I will think about it... but I'm not bettong on it. I'd love to be a pilot, and I don't thnk that's comming out for a while. Preferably, TIE fight pilot..

Xyun · Post by **Xyun** » September 11, 2002, 4:00 pm

I will switch to this game the day it comes out. The good thing about the PvP aspect is that if you do meet some ignorant people, you can keel them.

Bubba Grizz · Post by **Bubba Grizz** » September 11, 2002, 4:22 pm

I am highly motivated for this game to come out. While I know that the majority of the players are going to be window licking jedi wannabees, I know that there are others who aren't. Let's face it, after playing 2 years or more on Veeshan, you can all consider yourselves veterens of the MMO. It will be easy enough to avoid lil Darth Hamsterfetish Fett.

Ebumar · Post by **Ebumar** » September 11, 2002, 4:50 pm

Lmfao, Bubba. Hamsterfetish.

Diae Soulmender · Post by **Diae Soulmender** » September 11, 2002, 6:58 pm

At a minimum I will purchase it, install it, patch it (likely serveral times), pay to play then login...

Whether I actually play... who knows. Ifs its anytihing like EQ its likely I will... who knows. Ill play it by ear at this point.

Fynris · Post by **Fynris** » September 11, 2002, 7:28 pm

I've heard some pretty interesting info on the tradeskill and politician classes that sounded interesting. Being able to gain XP without firing a shot at the bad guys... /shrug... just not a big Sci-Fi fan.

Kaldaur · Post by **Kaldaur** » September 11, 2002, 11:49 pm

I will definately be trying it. After EQ lost its appeal, I've been taking a long break from computer gaming. However, Raph Koster and his ideas have always had my interest, and although I may not believe in a few of his ideas, it seems like he actually cares about his game. So, count me in.

Bubba Grizz · Post by **Bubba Grizz** » September 12, 2002, 10:26 am

What direction will you go when you play? Here is a list from the site.

Teras Kasi Artist
This profession combines skills from the melee combat and melee tactics disciplines. A player in this profession is extremely dangerous in melee combat. Teras Kasi, or “steel hands”, is a Bunduki martial arts discipline focusing on weaponless combat.
