Sweet.

 

Freaking. Sweet.

This is the ENGINE that will be used in Space.  A very early release, created when TOR was first being worked on.  This is NOT INGAME FOOTAGE OF TOR SPACE COMBAT.

First, thank you to all of you who participated in our Comic-Con Reveal mission! While we didn't quite make the numbers, we definitely saw how excited the community is about this and how everyone came together. After all of that, there's no way we could hold back with our special reveal at Comic-Con!

If you’ve been following the news coming out of the Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ panel at Comic-Con International, you’ve heard the announcement that we will indeed have Space Combat as part of the TOR experience! But what does that mean? Space combat is an alternative gameplay experience to the primary game of storytelling, questing, and ground-based combat. In space combat, you fly your personal ship to various “hot spots” on your galaxy map. From there, you will blast your way through asteroid fields, enemy fighters, frigates, destroyers, and a variety of other obstacles that will evoke memories of some of the great Star Wars™ space battles.

To learn more, pick up the October 2010 edition of PC Gamer which hits newsstands starting August 17th for screenshots and an exclusive interview or check back with us in the weeks to come.

My interest hasn't waned and now that one of my concerns seems to ahve been put to bed. I'll just try to relax and enjoy the anticipation til this game launches.

Gaming since Avalon Hill was making board games.

Looking forward to TSW, WoD and Copernicus.
Played SWG, EVE, Fallen Earth, LOTRO, Rift, Vanguard, WoW
Tried Aoc, Aion, EQII, RoM, Vindictus, Darkfail, DDO, GW, PotBS

Just because you are unique does not mean you are special

7/23/10 3:48:42 PM#7

I'm pleasantly surprised.  I'm sure this won't deter the haters...after all they still insist this is a highly instanced single player game.

Wow. Still can't believe it, I think I'll wake up any moment now *speechless*

I was on the edge before, but wow. I still would prefer if it was less linear, but i gotta give it a shot now.

I am almost 100% percent sure that it will be an instanced mini game.

Your ship is a travel hub that carries you from planet to planet. Space combat in asteroids or evil guys space station will be instanced combat.  Don't expect anything like  EVE. Most likely it will be star trek online instanced mission.

Then again I hope i am wrong and u can customize your ship, explore space, build space stations and farm asteroids on top of all the ground combat and exploration

I liked MMOs better when gamers didn't play them, and just geeks did.

7/23/10 4:03:08 PM#15

SW:TOR just went from "eh" to "ooh" on my hype meter.

My Top 3 List:
1) EverQuest
2) Dark Age of Camelot
3) Star Wars Galaxies

7/23/10 4:04:28 PM#16

Well, doesn't seem like anyone has anything to complain about now. Actually, I guess it depends on how space combat mechanics work...

Cool. I hate space, but still cool. 

 

Is it supposed to be integrated into normal gameplay or is it going to be something to do for kicks?

If you're expecting EVE Online, then you can forget it.

Spaceship customisation has been confirmed though.

Wait, some people actually expected a Star Wars game (that had already announced the inclusion of player ships) to NOT feature space combat?

Lol.
