Open your horizons guys, SWG is definitely not going to be the best MMORPG ever, and rise above every other game in existence, as every MMORPG isn't space themed, so it physically can't. Shadowbane and SWG are totally different, and people shouldn't put biased opinions on two different games. I think it looks cool, and i think SWG looks nice too, but i am looking for a MMORPG to play, so I might pick it up. :D
I just wish people would look past SWG, and realize that it's been delayed till Q4, or near, and even then, you're not getting half the things you originally wanted after LA cut them out earlier. It's just really overhyped, and hype ruins games. Don't be suprised if the game you hold so dear ends up only being mediocre. This goes for ALL games, hehe.
You ever play Dark Ages of Camelot?
Well, its pretty much the same, except the interface is THE WORST I have ever had to work with. And I hope you have a spare keyboard, because there are over 150+ commands at least that you need to bind, they cannot be used from the GUI.
Have fun, I sold my beta account 2 days after playing. The thing ran like Doom 3, cept it looked like Half-Life at 640x480 in software mode.
Wolfpack is a rag tag team, they completly lost the focus of the game due to it being in development so damn long. They don't have any real experience in MMORPGs, Ubi has never done a MMORPG before either.
Now, we look at SWG, we have good graphics, experienced people and a company that has done MMORPGs before. You have a big **** name behind it and tons of the best talent being poured into it. It looks a bit simple for me, but I just can't help but think that SB is going to be the first Daikitana of MMORPGs.
BTW Check out (<a href='http://www.dominusonline.com' target='_blank'>Dominus Online</a>, its being created by the Regulators guild from EQ and DAOC. Good folks. I also hear good things about <a href='http://www.darkfallonline.com' target='_blank'>Darkfall Online</a>.
Damn, I need to get a job at PC Gamer don't I? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

well, has anyone tried (or even heard of) <a href='http://www.wwiionline.com' target='_blank'>WWII Online?</a>
its the first massively multiplayer FPS (no, planetside is second you nubs) set in WWII blitz era
they got off to a rocky start in june of 2001 but the stuck it out and worked hard and now its like the 2nd best game i play (next to NS)
the world is huge and it takes you DAYS to walk from one end of the world to the other (one guy set his auto run on, when on a trip, and when he came back, he was still not even close to the end of the world)
they just released 1.8 patch which adds new vechicles that are dated in 1941 (other models are pre 1940)
the biggest problem it has is that rocky start left many players turned off by it and threw it away, so i encourage everyone to at least look at it.
