Триизмерна версия на класическата хексалогия ще бъде пусната на широкия екран. Първият филм - The Phantom Menace - се очаква някъде през 2012-та.

- There is no repeated content across factions.

- Every Class has a completely unique storyline with their own companion characters and quests that takes them from the very first level through the very last and leads them naturally into the end game content. We call these Class Quests.

Now the questions and ideas that can be harder to get your head around if you haven't yet been one of the few lucky ones to actually play the game.

"Is all your faction specific content Class Quests?"

Absolutely not. It's a multiplayer game, built for multiplayer storytelling. Which means all classes in a faction will have access to all of the same content except the Class Quests.

"What is the breakdown between Class Quests and multiplayer quests?"

On the Origin worlds it's about 60% Class Quests, dropping to about 40% on the Capital worlds and then even lower for the rest of the game. The whole idea is to get you into the game, teach you about your class and your story, then get you out there playing with other people. So the game very purposefully starts with more single player content and then moves strongly towards content that can be played multiplayer.

"What are all the different types of multiplayer quests?"

Whew, that one's a big list but I can hit the major stuff.

1. World Quests: One-offs or short chains built for easy pick up and play. Grab a PUG or your friends and have a short adventure together.

2. World Arcs: Epic quest arcs that go from four to ten quests or more and follow a storyline across an entire planet. Big decisions and branching questlines you may have to play multiple times (in different playthroughs, they're not repeatable) to see all the content. Built for long play sessions or a series of short sessions where you and your group want a huge adventure that may stretch over tens of hours. Also very PUGable as long as you're grabbing like minded folks.

3. Flashpoints: Instanced, heavily scripted major story and action pieces built for groups to go in and get the very best of BioWare's multiplayer storytelling. Built to be played in a single sitting.

Now here's the fun part. Our multiplayer content has lines, choices and content that is specific to each class and content that is only there if you're in a group. Did the Jedi Consular really just convince the Sith boss to stand down and not fight us? Did the Bounty Hunter really just shake down the Moff for more money? Did the Smuggler just leave the group with that attractive quest giver? Um...are they coming back? It's fun to replay the game and see all the different content but it's also a blast to play with friends and be completely surprised by what they say. Often you'll find yourself saying "Okay, that clearly was not one of my dialogue options!"

"ММО-то Star Wars: The Old Republic ще бъде откровен провал. Бих казал, че нивото, до което ще падне играта може да се сравни само с неуспеха на Sims Online и всички го знаем", пише анонимният служител.

"BioWare харчат повече пари за The Old Republic, отколкото Джеймс Камерън даде за Avatar. Над 300 милиона долара, можете ли да повярвате?! А знаете ли с кой елемент на играта се гордеят най-много? Със звука! Не, сериозно, имате около 20 гигабайта инсталация на играта и какво е най-доброто, което ще получите за тях - озвучение!", продължава критиката си блогърът, който нарича себе си EA Louse.

"Останалата част от играта е просто недоразумение и както ЕА, така и Джордж Лукас го знаят. А времето напредва и по-голямата част от Mythic е изпратена в Остин, Тексас да се труди неуморно, защото те знаят, че не могат да отлагат премиерата прекалено много".

Of the systems that you work on, which one is your favorite?

We're really proud of the crafting system. We can't wait to talk about it, and it is going to be really soon.
