So who is picking this up on December 20th? Anyone in beta? I preordered and I am highly looking forward to it.

I would be if it was more like KOTOR, but just not into MMOs.

I'll most definitely be picking this up! I still play WoW to keep my occupied though.

Brutus2600 was doing the beta testing for it. From what he described, this will be a good game to pick up. I need to upgrade the video card on my desktop, but I plan to join in December.

Yep, this is going to be a great game. With the Star Wars name behind it, I believe it is the first MMO to actually have a chance to survive against WoW (not a WoW killer, just survive against it, haha).

Anyway, Like Beagle said, I've been playing beta and it's pretty great so far. It does need a beefy computer to run well, but that's just a great excuse to upgrade the ol' computer :-)

So yes, I have a preorder in and will be playing this as soon as it's released!

I'm seriously looking forward to this release. I've been watching the "development" site for what seems like a long, long time. I've really enjoyed the KOTOR games, and thoroughly enjoyed playing a couple of MMO's...so this may be a enough of a "fit" for me to jump it with both feet. Also helping out is that fact that I'll have a couple weeks off of work staring on or about the 20th...:-)

I think Blizzard has some concerns over this games draw. They recently announced that they will give you Diablo 3 FREE if you agree to a 12-month subscription to WoW. It's a great idea on their part; because even if you leave the game, they're still getting their money.

Blizzard is making WoW far too mindless. To the point that it is taking the fun out of the game for me. Then they announce the next expansion as freaking Panda's... Really? It's like Return of the Jedi all over again. You went from the biggest baddest dragon in the game... to fuggin' kungfu ewoks (Panda's)?

I know that WOW is the grand-daddy of games...but to be honest I think that Blizzard does a poor job of running it, and I find that the game tends to be mindless most of the time. I want some challenge and some variety...not the endless grinding that WOW seems to be. There's a reason that I didn't end up progressing past level 30....yet made it far further (in terms of hours played) with DDO.

+1 to that, looking forward to getting this setup now!

I'll be grabing it but probably won't do it the first week or two. Star Wars Galaxies had so many bugs and patches that I bet I only played an hour or two the first week. I expect this with the Old Republic. We need to get a server list up and hook up in game!

Ive never played a MMORPG but if I was goign to do it, this would be it. But I can't justify all the time I would waste playing it.

I got the email that I will get to play a test coming up ... just didn't make it into this weekend though ...

I was in this past weekends test and I enjoyed it. I will be playing this for sure. With that being said they do have some bugs to work out and I am going to have to replace my video cards as I was getting poor FPS.

According to the website everyone that signed up for beta testing prior to Nov. 11th will be in the next beta test weekend.

During this test I played on the Shadow Hand Server. Would be cool to have a bunch of us on here on the same server.
