Ok this has actually made TOR worth checking out for me now. This could be absolutely awesome.

Edit: I seem to suck at embedding so here is the site:

with all the space flight MMOs out and in development this looks rather generic and boring, well at least it's got SW sound effects I guess. Colour me unimpressed TBH.

I hope it's fully fleshed out, on top of the jedi acion they have going on the ground.

well that would be great but so far it looks like it's just tacked on and given the multitude of space flight MMOs coming and out now I would hope they do something more than just have starwars sounds and designs. Maybe I will be wrong and this will be amazing with tones of depth tens of diverse ships that are fully upgradeable with hundreds of weapons, shields etc and tens of solar systems with tones of missions huge PvP battles etc but I doubt it.

Souunds a lot like EVE. Honestly though, if EVE was skillbased it would have been the perfect space MMO.

also sounds like Jumpgate Evolution, Infinity: The Quest for Earth and Starport Gemini or even Startrek online lol which is kinda my point from what I have seen what Bioware are doing is not anything new or unique in the MMO space when it comes to space flight, maybe they will deliver a compelling experience that blows us all away but I doubt it TBH. It just looks tacked on IMO the main focus is on story etc again from what I have seen.
