Since they haven't released any information about any other classes, pretty much all their promotional material will relate to Jedi/Sith. After they begin to announce more classes, they will focus more of their promotional material on the most recent announced classes. That isn't to say they still won't put most of their promotional emphasis on Jedi/Sith, since the folks at LEC seem to be convinced that Jedi are the only thing of interest to MMO players in relation to Star Wars. I will say that screenshots of Jedi/Sith wielding their lightsabers are more dramatic than similar (to each other) looking characters with blasters representing the other classes will be. You can't really difererentiate soldiers/bounty hunters/smugglers/etc. in screenshots, aside from dressing them in different outfits/armor.

BioWare have stated a few times now that they'll be doing everything they can to make sure every class is interesting and makes players want to try them out - having their own special features about them. Also they've said they pretty much want to let players play as the most prominent rolls in Star Wars. I think it's safe to assume Mandalorians, Republic Special Forces, some sort of Scoundrel/Rogue/Smuggler type class will be there as well... but as said above, since they haven't actually revealed any other classes yet, they can't really post too much. The Kel Dor could be a number of different classes but at least two races are now shown to be in game which we didn't know about... the blue horned guy [no idea what they're called] and the Kel Dor solider of some sort... |

Game looks like it is coming along pretty well. I hope the combat is like Jedi Outcast.

Man this game is getting Better, Quickly. IT started at GOOD and right now Its at AWSOME. Hopefully I don't need to wait to long. I LIKE the graphics. I don't need overly realistic graphics to be honest, Good Particle and Lighting effects are more imporatant to me. |

Particle effects need to be kept restrained. They need to be in line with what is seen in the films, as opposed to flashy and obnoxious. Combat should look like a disco party.

That "gun" looks like a hair dryer. It's good to see some needed changes go in, but there's still some fixing up to do. oh hai this is not a sig |

Originally posted by Mysk lol yeah, not a fan of the big yellow and red target face on the gun scope. It kinda reminds me of the scatter pistol, but not. I think that weapon needs a bit more work. |

Looks fine on the outside. That was never really one of my concerns. More concerned about the systems under the hood and how they will run. "Many nights, my friend... Many nights I've put a blade to your throat while you were sleeping. Glad I never killed you, Steve. You're alright..." |

Looks nice. As long as I can roll a bounty hunter, I'm in.

The only thing they changed and admitted to needing change was the lightsaber. Good job though thinking Bioware was going to make us wear spandex though! Eat more paint! |

The only problem I have with it is the horrible character models. |

I think the direction of the game they are taking is just fine. It should shape up to be a great game. And that is all we ask for......something great, and i think they can deliver. Velika: City of Wheels: Among the mortal races, the humans were the only one that never built cities or great empires; a curse laid upon them by their creator, Gidd, forced them to wander as nomads for twenty centuries... |

I think they look good. My only gripe is the human models, but given the early stage we can hope there is still room for improvement. Good pics.

These are really nice looking....the kel Dor model is especially impressive Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced. |

I agree, the models are still far too cartoony. The bodies are disproportional, their legs are way to big compared to the rest of their body. I think the graphics look slightly better than before, with the tone downed lightsabers, but a few things still bother me. Like I already said, the character models are out of proportion and look cartoony. Their clothes, even though they are wearing robes, still look like spandex(The pants are perfect tight fit, there is no loosness at all which adds to the cartoony look and makes it look like spandex still). There seems to be too much shine on things that shouldn't have any shine, like the cloak hood or their pants. And the terrain looks far more like a drawing than it does a world. These all add up to look incredibly cartoony and immature and I still don't like their art direction in the least, they should have just stuck with KotOR graphics. Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic |

I have to disagree with you 100% to me the graphics do not look cartoony at all. People will go on here and say "The Grass looks just like WoW!" or "The Spandex is so City of Heroes!". Get over it guys. _____________________________ This is his story.... |
