If its old, I apologise but I had not seen it before.

That looks really good.

I do see it's "early alpha" so all I will say is..well I can't say much, if that was closed beta then I would really hammer away.

But this is not the case

Looks like a compilation of all of the in-game footage from the various interviews and such. Good find.

I just noticed something weird.  At 4:05, a jedi is fighting someone with a glowing stick like the ones the Grevous's droid guards used in the EP II and III.  Anyways, at first he's in melee combat and starts to flame the jedi, i.g. Bounty Hunter trick.

Does this mean every class will have dual rolels?  Maybe jedi will have melee with LSs and ranged with force powers, while everyone else will get vibro swords along with their blasters?

Meh...nothing new here.   Same old same old.   Game play looks no different than say WoW.   Click on target, spam hotkeys until target is dead.   Why would it take a lightsaber weilding Jedi so many hits to kill that one creature?  

::yawn::

Looks more like a collage of previously released materials...

I love how KOTOR lightsaber fighting = no moving around a room/area what-so-ever.

Imagine all the battles in the movies. Now imagine if they all took place in the same spot in their respective rooms without any moving around the enviroment.  What great action! Stand in place... swing swing swing swing swing for 15 minutes. die. Sweeeeeeeeet!

Oh, and nothing says Star Wars like a pair of tight fitting pants also.

IMO.. It looks like the same graphic engines as SWG, EQ2, Vanguard etc etc..  They all run the same, walk the same and even look the same..   Zzzzzz   OMG.. Hell.. even their website and forum looks IDENTICAL to the old SWG website.. LOL  same font, same size, same colors..... < FLASHBACK>  /e pokes eyes out

i like how it says "in game FOTAGE"   lolz

well what would you have instead? i dont understand why veteran gamers still argue or criticize this point?  dont get me wrong...i would love to see something different as well but until some other means of interacting ingame, other than the use of a keyboard and mouse, i dont see how we are going to not ever need to button mash. maybe the widespread adoption of x-box or wii style controlers hooked up to our pc's would change this but until then...

That's pretty much what MMO combat has always been.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love a Mass Effect pseudo-FPS ARPG style combat mechanic in an MMO and I'm sure it'll happen eventually, (and hopefully revolutionise the genre) but we're not going to see it done well in the next year or two.

I totally agree!!!  When we can finally play MMOs without having to use a stupid keyboard, and can run around 1 shotting mobs then I'll be happy!!!

yeah pay no attention that stupid moron. but anyways this looks great the only thing is can we actually say that this game is in alpha stage?

Doesn't that mean beta is nextttt, so this game could be out next yearr.

I want to tell the toons to eat a couple of cookies. So thin, if they turn sideways, they might disappear. Good for stealth tho

Can't say that I really like the art direction they decided to go with on this game. When can we move away from the WoW/WAR stylized, cartoonish art, and start using more realistic looking effects. I can agree that the art used in WoW/WAR looks great, and it definitely has its place in the industry, but how can you recreate that gritty Star Wars universe with a cartoon-like palette?

Some ingame footage some of you may have missed are the planet videos

Open up each link for the planets listed and click on the landscape icon on the right (under the question mark)

Aye, the models aren't candy to my eye neither at the moment, they really need to get few BigMac's in their tummies.

Not impressed. Looks like Star Wars for the SW:Clone Wars cartoon kids, but not for adult old school fans.

Many years ago Lucas said that he basicly wanted to give the Star Wars universe a "used and worn out" look.

Today all that is left is commercial, colorfull pop-culture shit for the ADHD generation.

I have some of the most refined tastes in the world because I say I do and I say that this game looks absolutely  stunning.  Have a great day QQ'ers.

PS. stop letting your mommy's/GF/wives dress you or you will never have good tastes.
