Star Wars: The Old Republic Space Combat Trailer [Aug 18, 2010, 6:09 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Star Wars: The Old Republic Website has a trailer showing off the space combat in BioWare's upcoming Star Wars MMORPG. The clip shows a variety of ships doing combat in a variety of asteroid formations, but doesn't do much to refute the recent report that this will be "tunnel shooter" combat.
It doesn't look all that great, but then again it isn't even available to test in Beta yet. I'm sure, like the rest of the game, it will improve as the game develops. It certainly looks to be 'on rails' as we've heard, but if the experience is still compelling, it shouldn't really be an issue.
In the end I will be comparing the games space combat to Star Wars Galaxies, which while arcady, was also very compelling and provided a great deal of extra content to the base game and let the players do what they wanted with their own ships, both combat and non-combat. So we shall see.
