The mouse droid I don't care much about, but they describe the ingame store as 'dynamic' which makes me think it will have either new items as you level up or new items introduced periodically (or both).

Now, I hope (assume) it's not anything game-breaking (i.e. like getting raid gear or something in a store). But I am hoping it's going to be some cool stuff.

Yeah, it's probably going to be really cool but gimmicky stuff in that store.

I just got the standard version. 60 bucks is quite enough... **** paying 80 bucks just to get a speeder because that's the only thing on the list that interested me.

Why not have your character just kill someone with a speeder? Problem solved.

I'm really borderline on whether the speeder is worth it. What's it take to get a speeder in the game? I can see it being useful for traveling maps.

I think right now it's just a matter of reaching the level (25 or 26), purchasing the skill and purchasing the speeder.

**** that speeder, in no time youll have something similar or better then that. MMO's now days are loot pinata's everyone wins.

Remember when people were selling copies of WoW for $120 dollars on eBay because everyone was sold out for that first month or so? I wonder if you're going to be able to make that kind of bank with the CE of TOR... Could be a worthwhile investment, and if not, you still got yourself that badass edition of the game.

Little bit more on the store. According to Bioware, the vendor location is sort of a VIP lounge area for the CE buyers. Mostly cosmetic items that you purchase with (ingame) credits, although there are some functional items. They won't be overpowered, they'll basically be the same kind of items you can in the regular game, but with different appearances.

As far as cosmetic goes, they don't actually have nor do they intend to create a cosmetic system - you look like what you're wearing, so I'm not sure what they mean by 'cosmetic items'.

I don't usually post leaked stuff, and I'm not sure how long these will last, but there are a couple of vids on betacake that I really like this morning, one the first PvP video I've ever seen (I have no idea what the hell is going on, but it looks and sounds fun) and some video of what appears to be a Consular arriving on Coruscant for the first time (just the character looking around at the architecture for a minute or so, it's freaking beautiful).

Once gamespot fixes their issues (the video stops around 18 minutes) I'll embed the TOR panel.

What I've seen of it is awesome.

God I can't wait to get this going. I totally want the dark blue lightsaber.

Huffmeister 07-25-2011 08:57 AM

Got mine pre-ordered (just the basic $59.99 version). Now we just have to continue to play the waiting the game.

mnchiefsguy 07-25-2011 01:28 PM

I really want to get this, but am not sure I will actually have the time to play it.
