SWTOR Announcement Incoming

As discussed on one of our forum threads, the official Star Wars: The Old Republic Twitter announced the following today:

We're in Europe where we'll be announcing new details about The Old Republic. Stay tuned!

Electronic Arts typically hosts a showcase in the UK around this time of the year, and last year this event revealed the Imperial Agent, the Advanced Classes for the Smuggler, and more significant information regarding the game.

Keep an eye on Darth Hater to bring you all the announcements coming from Europe.

    I thinking its crafting, purely just a hunch

    It's gotta be a new game system. It can't be just another planet update or advanced class reveal.

    An announcement that could combat a certain December 7th release date? I hope so.

    I doubt it will be a testing announcement or release date... but a nerd can dream can't he? A nerd can dream...

    Can anyone find any info on this "EA UK showcase"? I have been googling and all over EA's site including the UK version with nothing to show for it. I was assuming this event was what they are referring to because it happened last year around this time.

    If they announce crafting and its very similar to World of Warcraft I'm going to be a little peeved.
  • #46 Dastiun
    You and me both.. but it is inevitable to have similarities, not only with WoW but with the MMO in general... So many details to worry about to keep the fan's hype justified, recreating a crafting system would consume much of their time... I could (and hope to) be wrong
  • #49 Buttniks
    I know its going to be somewhat similar, I just hope they make the crafted items worthwhile, WoW's crafted items were easily replaced and became somewhat of a waste at times. I'm hoping for something like, making it possible to upgrade armor making noticeable changes. Or something, I could ramble on for ages I just hope crafting system is somewhat decent.

    Wow's system was fairly solid. I think it could use more depth but the system itself was fine. The items you could make were crap and that was the problem with it.

    In a lot of of the crafting system this is true, especially in WOTLK. One caveat to that. In BC tailor Spellstrike, Frozen shadow weave and Spellfire sets were amazing and some pieces never even got replaced for BIS for some of the classes.

    Think they said that the crafting would be similiar to WoW's but with a twist. On the otherhand I enjoyed WoW's crafting much more than SWG since it didnt require so much of me to be able to make cool and awesome items.

    I HATE the World of Warcraft system. I am not even sure that you can call it a system. It feels like someone's little nephew came up with the idea. I do understand that the SWG crafting system was hard for some but that is what I loved about it. You could get better stats than someone else, depending on how much work you put into it. Being the server best or one of the top dog crafters was awesome. It gave you some pride to see people running around with your name on thier gear. The SWG crafting system was the best in my opinion. Then again, SWG's original approach to everything was amazing and completely out of the box. Then again, it was my first MMO and have only REALLY played WOW since so my idea might be kinda jaded.
