We're live at the Orpheum Theatre. Hang tight, we know people are having issues with the feeds and stuck behind firewalls.
We are explicitly covering Star Wars: The Old Republic, but in the meantime check out IGN's video preview, confirmation of player ships, and write up of their hands on. (grateful credit to pinio for us slowpokes at the hotel)
Every player, regardless of their chosen class, will get their own starship to command across the galaxy. Always dreamed of flying a Corellian vessel? Choose the Vanguard class when playing. Or maybe you've had some sort of sick dream where you gangster walk through the galaxy aboard an Imperial transport (if so, choose the Sith Fury class).
Of course, it would be pretty boring to have an entire galaxy packed with a handful of similar ships. To combat this, BioWare has created a robust customization package so that you can fully trick out your ship with premade gear sets or your own hand-picked items. Though BioWare isn't showing off the ships in action just yet, they assure us that there will be thousands of different variations so that each person can feel as if they have a unique vessel.
PvP: Players battle it out in War Zones, first one is on Alderaan.
Update: The Hope E3 Trailer is online. HD version is here. More images after the jump.

Posted 6/16/2010 12:17:39 AM"That's pretty much where we like to have it because we are actually working right now on some cool stuff for space, and we'd rather talk about it when we get it finalized. If everyone thinks about Star Wars there are always components we have to have. We have ships! We may have other things."
Other things like space combat. Please oh please give me some pew pew in space. :D

Posted 6/16/2010 12:14:59 AMCrafting is less like SWG, and more like WoW 2.0.
Not making decisive comments about instanced vs. Open world PvP.
And as Rich stated in the first answer, the lack of information is due to a lack of finalization on the details and a desire to not comment for such.
