Remember i’m on vacation from July4-25,with no access to internet. You can follow my vacation on twitter –>
BetaCake is a blog that post news,and some leaks about various MMO’s. They currently have a 7 part Q&A series with various beta testers.
You can read the full Q&A here: STAR WARS™:The Old Republic™:Exclusive Tester Q&A #4
Some highlights:
- Space Combat is a mini game… (I don’t know how i feel like that, if it is fun then that good). I would love if each planet had a space port and you can see everyone flying in to the planet. but ya)
- You can reverse engineer items you craft and get some material back (Rift does this and it make leveling a little easier since you need to gather/buy less resources).
- Each planet has a boss that a group can take out and get epic items. That sounds cool, though i kind of wish for something similar to Rift zone events.
- Auto-facing, this prevent people from running around you in circles in PVP (which is hate) So this is an uber feature i’ll love.
From this Q&A it sounds like the Story for each side is pretty uber (i guess i’m going to have to play Both side). I’ll probably play 2 maybe 3 characters on each side.
