Isn't there a very strict NDA for the beta that you're violating right now?

I think my conscious can handle the guilt of one screenshot.

I have a question, now i know this will lightly touch apon events from KOTOR 1 & 2 (only one mission to Revan crypt reveals what happened to him etc...).

What i really wanna know is this game F2P or will there be a monthly fee?

P2P, says in the Pre-Ordering that you get a free 30 day subscription.

Odd, I was actually thinking of this game a couple of minutes ago and was on my way to check out the webpage to see what's new. I probably wont bother trying it since it doesn't really interest me, but I think the game will be a huge success, and the fact that it is Bioware developing it will just raise the bar.

edit:
Checked out the forum, seems like pretty many people are dissapointed, seems like they cant handle the pre-orders smoothly and crap.


Sadly the MMO community today got so incredibly high standards, just an example: When RIFT was in closed beta you couldn't use ÅÄÖ in chat. I was playing in a swedish guild and around 20 people actually quitted and cancelled their pre-orders because of that even that Trion was working on a fix. Sure it was annoying, but not that annoying that you ragequitted over it. MMO players actually look for stuff that annoys them so they can have something to complain about.

That is why I ordered off Amazon. Since I got Amazon Prime I get one day shipping for only 3.99, not to mention they don't charge my card until it ships aaaand I got my early access code instantly.

I even had fun doing quests alone; now that tells you the game would be 50x more fun with friends :)

i was in the Smuggler/trooper class beta last year, up to level 10.

I didnt really like the game at all, wasnt much to do, and didnt have that cool factor.


I dont think it will be the #1 mmo for awhile, i think maybe a month, and it will lose 25% of its player database already.

i've been looking forward to this since after kotor II when they said they were going to make an mmo instead of a third game. although i would have preferred both :'(

definitely going to be pre-ordering asap. bioware could have my babies anyday.

I like the shipping date, I guess they haven't been given a release date, because it just says it will be shipped between 7/27/11-1/11/12

Or maybe they are to receive more CE boxes but dont have them, so they are fulfilling the orders over time.

They still have CE on amazon. I almost ordered it but then I looked at the differences between this and digital deluxe.

Difference is a mouse droid and in game store. I almost bought it because the store, but for $60 I decided that it's probably not a good idea.

I won't be playing this game much as I will be on GW2, but it looks interesting.

Question though: if you preorder now do you get access now? Or is it only a couple days before launch.

Judging by Early Access, its more of a get access to the game before everyone else, and look pro before anyone else can.

Have yet to see a single thing I like about this game, the star wars universe doesn't interest me in the least also.
