The Star Wars: The Old Republic Website has a new video trailer from BioWare's upcoming Star Wars MMORPG. The new clip demonstrates Trooper progression, as word is: "As the elite Trooper rises through the ranks of the Republic military, there are several ways he can specialize his training, and several sets of armor and weapons to match."

Rift feels exactly like wow to me. I dont know what you mean by faster pace at all, It's like a total clone gameplay wise and with stiffer character animations.
Rift is like WoW in many ways, but combat is not one of them. The first several levels, yea. The UI, sure. The over all style of game, it certainly feels like WoW in many ways. But once you get 10 odd levels under your belt and enough abilities that you settle into your soul selections, the game really comes into it's own. The combat is faster, more animated, more intense. Raid gameplay (whether it be while doing a dungeon or fighting back an invasion) can get pretty chaotic but also a great deal of fun.
So yea Rift is a lot like WoW but not in the combat, at least after the first few levels. To me it's just a much more fun game combat wise, and the shear amount of class customization is just an added bonus. I could do without the quests though. Dynamic content for the win, thats why I am so looking forward to GW2.
Edit: On topic, ToR looks pretty good but it already looks dated to me. The look, the combat, the ui. It looks to much like WoW and while that isn't a bad thing, that style of MMOG is quickly becoming out dated. The 'stand around and trade hits' system of MMOG combat just isn't going to cut it anymore and quest based, static content is going the way of the dodo.
It is Bioware so they may surprise us by making the best damn game in that style out there, but it may not prevent the game from feeling 'old' right out the gate. Hopefully the highly custom story that lets you make real choices that actually affect your game will help keep the game from feeling to out dated.
