1)What are the classes?  (Do they have Arch Types,? if so what)? (Do they have Healer/Tank/Dps archtypes?)

 

2) Since it has guns and swords, will the game have player aiming? (Sort of like Darkfall)

3) Is the PvE large scale?

4) Is PvP large scaled, or Small arena /Instanced only? or (Both Instanced, and Large Scale)?

5) How does Gear work in the game? in past SWmmorpgs, were there enough models, so people running around dont look alike? (Sort of Like Guild Wars)

6) Is the Armor, Class Oriented (Like Guild Wars), were each class has a set of gear that they can only wear, and nothing else?

7) Any City Sieges?

Have you happened to notice that the game hasn't been released yet so we don't know what all the classes are or the answer to any of your other questions? They've only just opened beta application acceptance.We don't even know when beta will start.

 I see these type of posts all the time here?  Do people even bother researching a game?  Or do they just see the name and post.

 

"Is this game good lawl"

 

Seriously, it's not that hard.  Spend 2 minutes and find out yourself.

There are 8 classes, 4 of which have been announced so far. It has been said that all classes will have a healing ability, and it is unsure whether there will be a healer archtype. All classes do fit in to an archtype, but that is just pure speculation by community members.

2) Since it has guns and swords, will the game have player aiming? (Sort of like Darkfall)

Hasn't been discussed yet, though if you watch some videos it may give you a better hint, although I'm still not sure.

3) Is the PvE large scale?

From what has been announced you can expect to be overwhelmed by large numbers of enemies to create a heroic feeling, to mimic that of the Star Wars movies (where they were usually all outnumbered).

4) Is PvP large scaled, or Small arena /Instanced only? or (Both Instanced, and Large Scale)?

Hasn't been announced at all. Though they have said battlegrounds will be in-game, though no details (don't assume it's like WoW).

5) How does Gear work in the game? in past SWmmorpgs, were there enough models, so people running around dont look alike? (Sort of Like Guild Wars)

No clue, they said they want to diversify so everyone doesn't look the same.

6) Is the Armor, Class Oriented (Like Guild Wars), were each class has a set of gear that they can only wear, and nothing else?

Hasn't been announced, however, it's more than likely.

7) Any City Sieges?

Hasn't been announced.
