How's it going guys? :P

Anyways, as we all know, The Old Republic is to set for launch on December 20, 2011 for those in North America...and...another day for the rest (sorry, don't remember and too lazy to look it up.)

That being the case, Bioware apparantly wants to make sure that it is truly fine tuned before launch and have set up a beta test for who knows how long before then. How do I know this? I'm one of the testers :D

So, I will grant you guys some of the knowledge I've gained from this game so far (and trying to keep it as vague as possible so I'm not giving away too much, soz D: ) The Old Republic, imho, plays less like WoW and more like Champions Online in it's gameplay. The voice acting and music are amazing. The combat is pretty fun, much more fast paced than WoW and makes you feel awesome after every mob you take down for quite a while.

So, on that note (hopefully I didn't say too much that Bioware will yell at me,) if you guys have any questions about the game, I will try and answer to the BEST of my ability. I apologize if I can't answer completely what you want to know, but I must be a little hush hush. So, ask away if you feel you must know :P

Btw, I started off with a Human Jedi Knight.

Yea, I'm sure they'll totally go for that from one of their beta testers already playing the game for free.

WILL IT BE RELEASE FOR MAC !@@?

I think the sub is a better way to go, the game will expand a lot by the sounds of it from launch to even possibly free roam space battles and all sorts..

F2P games are generally limited and tend to attract a more anti social community.

No release for Mac.. yet anyway

and yes they have announced prices for it but it is regional.

I became a tester as well and it plays a lot like a BIOware game for sure. Such as Mass effect. But HELLO it is Star Wars and I have only played five minutes.

Its worth the hype in my opinion :)

Awesome game.... amazingly immersive its like all of Biowares classics rolled into one perfect little bundle.

The PvP is soooo much fun as well...pretty much a level playing field... generally at least :P

Hey guys! Been a while!

Just to let you know, I'm in the beta this weekend and I'll be streaming some of my gameplay tomorrow when I get home from work.

I'll be getting home around 2pm CST , so the stream should go up shortly after that .... though idk how long Queue times are planning to be.

Anyone from KR is welcome to come watch, as I'm sure some people from Peace will also be coming. Some of them don't want to play the Beta. Haters. :(

Hope to see you guys there! And I hope my stream software will behave! >_<

Hi nice to meet you. I have pre-ordered the game and will be playing it the day of. I will try to meet the stream time promptly to watch for the improvements beyond what I have experienced. Also, what class were you planning on using?

I'm honestly surprised there's nothing about a KR guild for SW:TOR in this thread. Also, I've already pre-ordered the game and, more recently, beta tested it. It's looking pretty nice. I'm hoping the launch goes alright and looking forward to see how it improves in the future. Hope to see some of you guys there! :3

O hai DarkLink and Lianna :o

Yeah Link, we've discussed expanding this game into that game and it has been shot down time and time again for numerous reasons.

Anyway, thanks for the invite Lia :)
