Nope. I'm not sharing my beer with my PC. It can get its own.
I rigged mine so it runs on natty lite, cheaper than electricity and no one out of college should be drinking it anyway.
Did they update the graphics or something? Last time I saw this running it looked like they were going for WoW style, will run on PC's from the 90's graphics.
I don't think they have updated too much. The game has always had spec and normals from what I can see, which is way more than what WoW can do. Their poly counts have always been way higher as well. They actually may have changed the character and lightsaber proportions a bit since the initial press release they had showing the game, but I don't think the tech has changed too drastically.Quote:

Four news species announced. I really like the Miraluka.
The space combat was detailed in some German magazine. On rails, entirely optional.
Stolen from GAF:
-"This way of playing is called "tunnel shooter". They are specially designed levels, where you follow a specific path. The player has a choice of weapons available, which he uses against his enemies. You get a quest before it goes in there." So pretty much confirmed to be an on-rails shooter.
-"At release, there will be no PvP combat starship. Later BioWare does something but not enough."
-"The missions should last no longer than a few minutes, and are therefore more of a short action-snack in between."
-"There are also escort missions planned."
-"All space missions are currently optional, no one has to do it if he does not want."-"This way of playing is called "tunnel shooter".

So there is one area Galaxies is going to clobber TOR. The space combat was handled correctly in Galaxies.
However, if we get a Star Fox-like minigame out of this, it may still work.
