| I wonder who read bout my character? ... Cause I wrote that he is from Taris (the old days, befor the bombing)... witch errrr... means that he is more than 200 years (a bit old for a human IA xD ). hahaha Just watching the movie.... So Rebels wan to rebuild Taris, Empire dont, so that means that we will have lost of PVP quests (as shown in erlyer movies) there... Huray  (I hope IA is a good assassins as other sneaky chars in other games  )

| Taris will be an absolute stunner I think! I loved the planet in the original KOTOR and just went around everywhere I possibly could go before I carried on with the main story. It'll be very cool to see it post-apocalypse and I can guarantee you I'll be spending quite a lot of time there! |

| Personally I'm glad they did! I like Rakghouls, I think they're fun! Plus you want some variety in mmo's; I should think your melee classes (i.e: Sith Warrior, Jedi Knight) would be glad to see some melee characters who dont just pick them off from a sniper scope from miles away  |

| I'm really hoping they stick in a good system for PVP in TOR so we don't end up having the same imbalance as many other MMO's. |

Well it'll be a multifaction world considering it had a Sith inquisitor on all the developers moniters, so there should be some PvP.
I was only ever a rogue in WoW but I remember how inbalenced it was, I think every class had more healing talents or movement reduction spells then we did and our skills like disapearer took 5 min cooldowns >.<
From an earlier vid they mentioned they've designed the classes but not figured out how they interact within PvP which seemed a bit odd to say the least |

I'll join the club there LW. I've never been a huge fan of PvP (unless I'm wining!  ) and it's always been a lower priority part of a game you only comitt to if you're bored or have no other way to gain the things you want. In WoW's recent years Honor has been an incredibly easy way to gain purple items and well that was the only real reason I dedicated myself to it (I wasn't any good at it however). PvP will most certainly be introduced in TOR or Bioware would be pulling a middle finger to a large part of the gaming community. How they incorporate it though will certainly be intriguing to hear about!
I'm hoping, if they decide to create a similar PvP system to other games, that they allow the player a choice if he wants to comitt to PvP and make it possible for him to play on a server you will not be disturbed by purple-item-hungry roleplay haters (Believe me, I know the feeling. I've got several friends whom are only outdoor PvP'ing to ruin peoples time in RP.) |

| Maybe there should be a separate PvP thread for this discussion?
I personally hope that they separate out the hardcore PvPers to a dedicated server and have 'lawless' PvP zones for realistic casual encounters for us PvEers/RPers. That or if we're lumped in together, make any gains (exp, tickets) very low in value so that it discourages power levelers from farming casual PvPers. Making the rare items attainable only through crafting would help in that regard too. |

I'd love to create one but I must admit I can't be bothered to amass the information already present. Anyone care to take up the project? |

Sorry, that was mainly hinting at the guild leadership (SS, LW & PJK) all three of whom have admin and thread mod rights to cut and paste the PvP stuff onto a new thread. But y'know what? If they're cool with straying off-topic; it's their foum!  |
