"Update 10/10/09: a new "working" link was found today http://www.swtor.com/info/holonet/space-combat credit to Sunyata. My only curiosity on this find is why both Space and Space-Combat work , it is possible one of them will not be used."
 

As you can see the ending to the link ends with "space-combat". This means space combat may be in the game. Remember this is still speculation until confirmed.

 Here is an image as an example when the ending text is changed in the link.

Yeah there's ones for story and a few others too.

Neat.

needless to say there are a ton of things in this game we have not even gotten into yet.   Next few months should bring us some good info.

no one wants an action game in an mmoRPG

look at what it did to swg all jtls did was allow the damn action twich arcade gamers in and they are the ones who whined to $OE about how swg needed to be more like wow.

oh and hey look at how well a wow star wars has done with the nge.

point is bioware needs to take notes and see what gamers really want.

Are you honestly complaining about them adding twitch space combat into TOR? Really? What would you rather have, boring Eve point and click space combat or no space at all? Both seem like terrible options when compared to twitch based sim style space combat. Sign me up for that.

How is it you have become the universal ambassador for everyone? Please refrain from speaking for others in the future.

Great find you have there OP! I never got into JTL and kinda regret that. I wouldn't mind giving space a shot this time around.

eve is 100 times better then jtls

i want huge fleets of ships not a few little fighters buzzing around for the quake players i want people thinking when they move their ships in not playing it like a game of unreal

I loved the twitch aspect of JtL.  Being a higher level pilot could help with the twitch quite a bit, and it was not anywhere near the cause of the downfall of SWG.  If you think that, you are just lying to yourself.

Would be great for some twitch space fighting in TOR.

I agree. I only found SWG because I looked on LucasArts website to see if they had any newer X-Wing style games, and I found JTL. I ended up falling in love with the ground game more than JTL, but I played JTL a bit when I first started. Good fun. I'm dying for a good online twitch based space sim, and since JGE is looking to suck big time, I'd love to see it in TOR.

Pretty obvious someone never played X-Wing/TIE Fighter, or even Freespace for that matter. Sorry, but clicking 'orbit' then turning on your guns until someone blows up isn't exactly exciting, or in the spirit of Star Wars. Sounds to me like you just absolutely sucked at dogfighting.

Honestly, the JTL expansion was about the only good thing SOE did to SWG. In my opinion, of course.

and what would you rather

what tor looks like right now?

or tor to be a full on sandbox game that everyone would love?

Everyone would not love a full on sandbox. Some would, some would not. This is not going to be a sandbox, from the moment BioWare announced there would be a SW:TOR it was not going to be a sandbox. BioWare is in no way responsible for what LA and SOE did to your beloved game.....this is not the game you are looking for......

"What TOR looks right now?"

Right now TOR looks like a concept we've been told little about. It's so far up in the air what TOR actually is right now, I get dizzy trying to think about it. I'd prefer a sandbox (SWG2) made by bioware for sure. But that's not what's on the table right now. Just because there's no steak doesn't mean I can't have the chicken and enjoy it.

Not really my conversation to be a part of but, actually you are the one blocking any form of "friendship" due to him having a different opinion and that pissing you off.

At least Eve doesn't have Jar Jar Binks.

/Win (derailment over.)

Back to the topic at hand.  If combat in SW:ToR is anything like it was in KoToR we'll be sitting in turrets shooting at small fighters.

Here's hoping you can fly the ships this time.  At this point I'm not expecting to own my own capitol ship.  None of the classes revealed would bother.  Now if they release 'Republic Admiral' and 'Sith Fleet Commander' as classes I'll start to get my hopes up.
