Awesome, thanks for posting SevenStar, I read rumors about this maybe a month ago. I'm stoked, as much as I like the game already, I can't imagine if they put better space interactions in the game. I don't mind it now, but there is deffinetly room for improvement.

I'm hyped.

There we go... hater #1 arrived.

They work on it and Hickman already played it. They are not going to release it until it's ready.

But of course considering 12/21/12 is coming you might be right

Yep, I agree. One of the reasons why it will take time. They are not going to rush with it.

 

No hate there, a reasonable comment. Can SWTOR afford for it take that time? Wait too long, the game becomes dead and then plug is pulled

That is what happened with SWG and atmospheric flight

With SWTORs attention span, it only has about 3 months.of its current population boom from F2P, then it will start becoming deader than it has ever been.

Makeb coming soon. Ilum revamp coming in Feb-March.

I do not think that they should rush with this project. Heck, all of you stated that game was rushed. If they would release it before it's ready, the screaming on these forums would be expotential.

No matter how far it is - porbably next expansion as somebody said, it's far better then it does not exist as most of you imposed not so long ago,

 

Edit: Well I am not going anywhere, neither my guild. And with how much I spend on CC I am worth about 20 subs LOL

The game should not have been rushed, as people would have waited, but no one is going to wait for this now. People have been let down too much on this game already since launch, so not going to hang around for another black eye. There is not enougbh details, all he says is it is different, I am sure they said the thing about the Heroic missions. There is no mention of it being multiplayer or even like EVE/SWG/STO.

If it is what we think it is, and it gets added ASAP, and even if it is messed up, then they can patch it. Even if it is a buugy version of something like JTL then it will be more fun than what is in atm.

Even if you are worth 20 subs, that is not enough. I literally was worth about 100s subs in SWG, and that did not save it.

They did not give any details, so any speculations are pointless. 

With Makeb coming soon there will be plenty to do for a while, and regular content updates will keep people in game.

Sure not as many as space project would bring but I bet that people who are subbed right now will be still subbed.

Why is the Space Project so awesome when they have not given any details?

I don't 'hate' anything, Seven. I was just as hyped as anyone when TOR launched, but then incompetence ensued and the whole thing just seemed to fall apart. Then they introduced one of the most punishing cash shops I've ever seen and now I just can't believe anything that the EA 'mouth-pieces' have to say.

They , a year out now , still cannot make Illum function correctly.

A major feature , they advertised prelaunch , they had to abandon and basically "turn off" as they didn't know how to fix it , is still not working and the current ETA is Feb March , more than a year after launch.

So ,why , WHY , would anyone not question their ability to even remotely pull something like this off when they couldnt even make a single large PVP zone even function correctly ?

They've cut back staff , not added since launch.

This space carrot will be rotten and a joke if it even ever comes to be.

They adjust the cash shop... nothing is perfect at first shot... check it out later

It seems to me that they would want to give information about it, even if its just a tad here and a tad there..  The backlash they've had with the F2P launch has been horrible.  Good prees and word of mouth couldn't hurt them.  Just saying there is a "space project" doesn't get me too excited, especially after seeing the let down that was F2P.  Give me some info...get me excited again.

I agree, but then there is not much information about Makeb as well and that is coming very soon.

I agree that they should give us at least overview, so players could comment and maybe even give them some cool ideas. Especially if it's in the first phase of developement, when changes can be still easily made.

Though from other side... there were so many comments about what players wanted from space combat /shrug

I admit that my love for Star Wars space combat could bring me back to play at least part time. This would have to wait until the content is released though. The game doesn't offer me enough to keep me around at this moment. I hated to whole Wow in space approach to it but I will admit I did like my Agent's gameplay for the most part. It ranks up there with some of my favorite themepark mmo classes despite all it's flaws.

I'm aching for a good space mmo. Call me a sucker but I really want to try out AO again if the update tease is for real and we see it in the early new year.

The game could likely get a good amount of players back because when they first announced F2P alot of players got interested in it again. Then they announced what their version of F2P was and everyone walked away. Perhaps they should take note of that and allow "limited" access to the things we currently have "NO" access to.  Limited access to things is fine, its a slight annoyance but gets your sales pitch in. Making me pay a sub so be able to collect quest rewards, BW is shooting themselves in the foot.

While the Space Project would be cool, they need to draw interest back into the game. To do that allow a little bit more freedom into the F2P side of things. Im not saying Drop the leash im saying give it abit more slack.

NOT one server is very heavy or full..   F2P surge will be short lived..   I see NO hope for this game in the future unless they can talk about their version of NGE..

Did you log in? Game is packed with players. On the Ebon Hawk it seems to be the same amount of players right now at heavy as it was week or two ago on full. Possible that they adjust the caps on servers. Neverless there are always less people playing on weekdays comparing with weekends in any game.

Log in?  no way..  I'd rather suffer through a dental surgery with no novicane, they to play SWTOR  again..  Even F2P is too expensive.. They only way I would play this game is if THEY paid me :)  lol 

Star Wars games (any Star Wars games) biggest problem was always the implementation of the game without the "space" element. The top reason why people become fascinated with sci-fi in the first place is the space aspect. 

Look at Star Wars games that is set in the movie timeline for example. Which one was still most memoriable to a lot of gamers?

X-Wing vs T-Fighter or the X-Wing series.

Another example: Which is the current top sci-fi mmos at the moment? EVE Online

Yet another example: which game created and made popular the sci-fi genre in computer games? Elite

All of those are based on the space aspect of it rather than the "walking around" aspect like WoW.

A good sci-fi mmorpg's goal should've to merge the 2 aspect seamlessly. None have been successful in doing so, I think that's why sci-fi mmorpg genre has always fallen behind fantasy genre - because people are not getting the holistic sci-fi experience.

That's said, if BW did manage to do the space element properly and clean up the horrid planet-instance crap, I think I will come back for a second try.

Even if subs would go down for a while, assuming that people won't stay for new content promissed every 6-8 weeks, and I assure you most people will stay as there is nothing on the market at the moment that would tempt them, they will rebound after this project go live.
