I would expect co-op space missions still styled like what we already have at best.

It's been real but the game just wasn't worth the sub for me anymore.

Starwars is all about space so expect free flight at some point. everything else is speculation until we get a official confirmation.

They should do what blizzard does and have a third party leak a document pretend some guy gets fired and claim "this might be our secret space project" they won't deny or confirm allow players to build hype off of the document. if all fails of course it was a leaked doc and they never officially confirmed it and they are free to develop it while fans get super excited.

it's what blizzard did with titan project.

While it's probably safe to maintain that expectation, it'd be hard to imagine a PvP scenario in such a restrictive environment.

And BioWare knows that would not work.

I didn't mean it would be player versus player, I meant it in the spirit of flashpoints.

IMO:

SWG/JTL space expansion was ABSOLUTELY outstanding
•Fast 3D Action
•Fully customizable ships
•Ship management
•3D ship cockpits
•1st / 3rd person views
•native TrackIR support
•force feedback support and fully customizable Joystick / keyboard support
•fully decorable 3D ship interiors
•atmospheric flight just before they had to pull the plug for "another" star wars game
•PVE/PVP
•capital ships
•Shipwright profession to craft/reengineer ship equipment
•combined actions space/ground --> determined GCW actions
•etc etc etc

I forced myself to try at least 2 space missions, but i was so shocked be the space part they gave us (i knew it all the time, as I was a SWG player and NOT a SWTOR fanboy)...that i almost unsubbed immediately. But I want to give them a fair 2nd chance.

If they cannot/won't meet at least the above mentioned standards, I will leave SWTOR for good.
Sorry to say but --> SWG (8 years old) > SWTOR (8 month old)

Not feeding us with any information seems like...."sorry we have no "final" plan yet and therefore no footage...let me guess ...if we are lucky that space expension will be released ....hmmmm END OF 2013?

They fired the guy who was supposed to give you news.

I was actually going to type that as a joke at first, but then I actually stopped myself, because yes, that did basically happen.

Forget it. Don't expect anything near like that. We will be lucky if they give us something near to Battlefront's space combat.

To be fair we all knew from start that SWTOR space was going to be rail. They never had plans to make it free flight. But the worse is that they also said they wanted it to be one of the major features of the game. What a fail!!!!
