There will be 4 planets or there will be more? And yes what about spaceship battles?

im pretty sure theres going to be more than just 4 planets. afterall, the sith control corruscant.

What about battles in outer space with spaceships????? Will this game iclude it?

hello,if you want to join the vendrex army click my avatar and say what you want to be.you'll be happy you did.

I heard Drew Karpyshyn is going to be working on The Old Republic as well. He was the lead writer for the first Star wars: Knights of the Old Republic and he wrote the Darth Bane and Mass Effect novels. I can't wait to see what he is able to put into the game.

I think Hoth would be cool to explore in TOR, but I don't think it was really discovered until the Rebel Alliance put some obscure base on it 3000 years later. Tython, Ord Mantell sound pretty awesome. I think Kessel would be sweet. Maybe some kind of jungle planet. But not Kashyyyk. I dunno. Maybe Kashyyyk.

hello? is every one forgetting dantooine? it was central in both KOTORs and was a planet in the webcomic. I think they will include it in the game.

Yavin 4 would be a good jungle planet, especially becuase of the history behind the Exar Kun War and all of the various Massassi temples to explore.

Dude, I agree with RepublicSentinel. I've honestly never played that many MMOs, but I think the original KotORs were some of the awesomest games ever. Maybe I'm missing out, I don't know. Guess I'll find out. But I thought those games were pretty much perfect, just needed the content expanded.
On the subject of diverse worlds...it'd be cool if their were many. And if each world was big. Obviously, that kinda goes without saying, but some of the worlds in KotOR II, like Telos? I was kinda wishing I'd just get out of there in the beginning. But another thing-I think the whole "working towards being a Jedi" thing is good, not just starting out as one with your lightsaber and everything. That's all for now.

Gee, I sure hope this isn't one of those "level" MMOs where you level up by completing a tedious quest like in runescape. It should be just like in KOTOR where there's no degrading level number above your head and you can personally customize your stats and character.

There needs to be levels dont want people starting off killing people that have been playing for a long time. Plus its a mmorpg leveling makes the game fun.

sorry i meant setting not seeting

Sorry, people who want to exlore Manaan in this game, but if you'd read the seeting you would know all surface settlements were destroyed in a bombardment. What about Mon Calamari though, homeworld of the chancellor???

Excellent update. I love to see the enthusiasm of the developers, their excitement mirrors mine. Thank you for your committment!!!

naaah actually i read it all so fast i didnt get it at first so buhuuu your comment got *wned

all this stuff is great I cant wait to play when is beta

I look forward to the beta :)

What is this betta stuff everyones talking about? YES I AM A n00b.

I hope dantooine or however u spell it is in the old republic! that place rocks!

This game is going to be better then any online game ever made!!!!!

Yeah, well if you played the second one(which most people hated and I don't blame them) you see that Dantooine was put back together

Dantooine got destroyed in KoTOR 1. Sorry?

I think they will make big suprise for us. Cos that video is too early making.

Great News!, we dont have to buy our own ships and hopefully other means of transportation... we just simply steal from each other and create our own personal star wars grand theft auto saga, be careful where you land those ships Republic, cause you're gonna find them in pieces after i sell every last part of it all across the galaxy.... safe travels:)

I am really impressed with what Bioware has done so far with this game ^^. I can't wait for the game to come out. However I am interested if there is going to be any sort of starship combat...*crosses fingers*.

last thing didnt they state there will be no neutrality? so ya keep dreaming

ok looks pretty kool i mean really great but i hope on these planets that there like on korriban undiscovered tombs and such to find im sorry but i love exploring everything also korriban looks to idk refugeish i picture wide open desert with tombs and traps...oh ya since there is story in it. and all stories have an end what gonna keep u playin on the same file after the "happily ever after"last thing what happens when u die? and can you come back? like in wow u run around lookin for your corpse.

We as players can't be neutral. We have to choose between light or dark. That doesn't mean we can't have a quest on a neutral planet. Smugglers hide out on them and Hutts prefer to do dealings on them. It's why tatooine is so attractive in Star Wars lore.

I hope that this game include more enemies. The number of KOTOR's enemies was very limited and you was only abble to fight them once...

I am quite enjoying the looks of these worlds thus far. But Im gonna echo some other posts here and say that I hope they add a more urban/metropolitan world or two.

I think MMO technology isnt up to doing Coruscant as of yet, even many hundreds of years before what we saw in the films. And I'd hate to see a half @rsed attempt at it, but their are many other worlds that could give us the sense of 'civilization' other than these rather stark looking worlds we have been shown thus far.

I'm sick to death of elves and orc - can't wait for this game!!!

Sick to death of WoW clones and cant wait for this! (swg refugee)

A fellow swg refugee! Man I hope they imply most of the same concepts, though the quests were kinda similar. There was even a quest on naboo where it made fun of it. Yea Ive played wow a total of like 5-6 years and other clones need something good.

I think that Manaan should be put in.

Like a planet for aquatic Species that is neutral.

There should be an aquatic species guild or something. I'm not sure if there is one. With nautolans, mon calamari, etc...

I think it's time for a new outer rim world. Forget tatooine, that world has been done to death. Something that is a combination of Kashyyk and Nar Shadda in appearance. Make it a homeworld for nuetral colonies and a trade center for ligitimate business and black market alike. A little more appealling for smugglers than Ord Mantell.

Take your time. Get it right. From what I've seen it looks amazing. It sounds like there going to have a ton of stuff to do. Wouldn't it be something if they had every planet in the republic... That might be impossible. Bioware, SHOW ME IMPOSSIBLE. (as quickly as you can!!!! :-) )

Aaaaahhh Tatooine. . . That back water planet were nothing ever happens. . .. FAIL

Can't say i am not excited about this game so far or that i am not looking forward to its being released,but on the other hand there has been TOO much talk about this game and i really want this to live up to our expectations.Let's just hope the team can make it.

Very very excited by this update looks like all the classes revealed so far will have some definite playground to have fun in.

I can see Hutta being a huge spot for bounty hunters, republic soldiers duking it out with the sith empire in ord mantell and Jedi and Sith meditating upon their own homeworlds.

Truly magnificent, cannot wait to play this game.

:)

Nice, another great update from the Bio Ware lot. Cannot wait until this game is released! Not sure if Bioware keep on top of all these postings, but it would perhaps be nice if we could get some "to be confirmed" updates on some of the previously asked / frequently asked questions? Ie, how many planets the current plan is, number of potential playable species? Starting planets for light/dark side aligned? Potential career paths based on current expectations?

I understand from a Bioware point of view, that they will not want to set any of this in stone, or post it as "Confirmed", but perhaps just some updates on current work in progress will hopefully give us ... ie, 10 planets for example. Great work though!

this is a very exciting update! I would like to see more planets, though.
id be happy enough with the planets mentioned, but more would make this game everything ive hoped for!

there will be 14-16 planets so i have heard

I remember few years ago when i was looking to start an MMO game (some friens were already playing WOW). I looked some pics of SWG but my friends persuaded me to skip it. After 3 years of WOW i am tired of it, time to get something new and SWTOR seems to be that one. But i am curious about one thing. What is the main idea behind the gameplay? I mean it will be PVP oriented or kill the big boss "Raid" style?

I was a huge fan of SWG before the CB, then it went to hell in a hand basket fast. I have since been through other games such as COH and now WOW, which I have played since Beta, however I have always wanted to come back to the Star Wars Verse... I am sooooo geeked for this. Hope it is soon... Keep up the great work BioWare

Khellyndros

Hum...The game has alot of planets...The graphics look good...the classes are out (well sith, jedi, bounty hunter and republic soldier-commando-thing)alot more will come out I hope...By the looks of it the game looks near finished...maybe a couple of months?Reply me.

Some of the users just say stuff to get attention so don't listen to them. One guy said he had a free beta testing but I looked at his info and it said he joined only 3 days before he started posting his lies. (It's like Simon Says, except that Simon is Bioware.)

If we're lucky apparently there's rumor going around about October of 09, but not a lot of people are keeping their hopes up. Others are assuming it'll come around by the end of next year, or possibly the beginning of next year. I refuse to believe anything until BioWare opens their mouths about it~
