PC Games Reveal Final Classes?

A couple days agowe reported that a German gaming publication called PC Games was featuring Star Wars: The Old Republicas a cover story. Donner, a commenter on our site and the one who originally notified us of the article, is reporting the main feature of the December issue does indeed reveal the last two classes as being the Jedi Consular and Sith Inquisitor.

Donner informed us that, after visiting a local gas station, he was able to retrieve a copy of the anticipated magazine. He also noted that the featured article not only lists the two classes, but also a small series of possible names from those classes' abilities. Additionally we have been provided scans of the issue in question and they appear to be authentic, however we are unable to reproduce the images on our site. Stay turned to Darth Hater and we'll try to keep you up to date as information comes in from Germany.

    If those 50% only have 25% of the classes to choose from to get what they want, maybe they'd consider trying the other 75% of the classes for more options. But with 50% of the classes having what they want, they're less likely to play the non-Force classes than they were when non-Forcies potentially made up 75% of the classes. It's all about the balance of power here, we needed majority non-Forcie classes to balance out all the newbs rolling the Forcies. It's fairly simple math.

    Regardless of feelings about the classes, I think Donner gets a huge amoung of props for helping those of us that support DH to get that reveal first. Here's to you Donner!!

    Very true. A big thank you from everyone at Darth Hater to Donner and all of the other members of the community here that help give us a heads up on fresh TOR info!

    We kinda want to know that too Panzzer, probably a marketing choice because of the strong support they already have in North America.

    Yeah been saying this for awhile now.

    The game now has 4 force users and 4 blaster users. Sounds like a very balanced game to me.

    I've pondered the question of the possibility of 4 Force using classes since the release of the Sith Warrior, and funny enough, never really pondered if I liked the idea until I read the comments on this page...

    And honestly... I like it!
    The game being story driven, I think a lot of bad comments are coming from people who judge the game from a combac mechanic point of view. But from a story point of view it makes sense to me.
    I've had a lot of concerns about the Sith Warrior lacking many well known Sith traits, combat or story wise, from the description we were given. And, if there is indeed a Sith Inquisitor, I hope it will close this gap... Only Robes, intricate plots, etc.
    Same goes for Jedi Knights, these are clearly not the comtemplative type we know exist...
    I'd agree though that many abilities should be logically redundant, but I'm not considering myself dissapointed until the classes are confirmed, and their combat mechanic revealed...

    Here is google translate of the Jedi Consular box took me a while to type it all in and it is about 90% accurate, I think. Class number 7 is the Jedi Consular. In contrast to a few weeks ago revealed to the Jedi-Kinight Consular is not found in the front row. Although he can also deal with the consular lightsaber but powerful enough to tackle Ranged skills such as "sleep", "lifting" or "crush". The class is available to be aggressively focused on damage or specializes on healing. Thus the Jedi Consular is an extremely powerful support class in The Old Republic.

    Here is the Inquisitor translation this is a more of a engrish Google translation that I am used to.

    Inquisitor of the Sith is the last of the eight character classes, which will go with the launch of SWTOR to the start. The Inquisitor is the counterpart of the Consular and also a champion of the second row. With Machtfähigkeiten like the "shock" or "lightning discharge" equipped, he heats his enemies a properly what we saw for ourselves in an extended gaming session. A quest sent us into an ancient Sith grave, where it is swarming with giant killer worms (K'lor'slug Ravager) and Imperial only so deserted. With the splash damage skills "overload", which stopped at nearby enemies, not only violated, but also knocks down and stunned for a few seconds, we quickly terminates the brood.

    I'm just disappointed that they're using the Inquisitor name. The Jedi gets the iconic name Jedi Knight while the Sith get the lame names Warrior and Inquisitor :(

    My very first disappointment in Star Wars: The Old Republic. That's all I have to say. A shame.

    to say that I am disappointed would be an understatement
