A press release
on The Star Wars Galaxies Website (thanks Jody Overstreet and SWG
Warcry) has a release date for the Star Wars MMORPG as well as a description
of the game's subscription plans. Here's a bit:
LucasArts and Sony Online Entertainment Inc. today announced Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided, the highly anticipated initial installment of the first Star Wars massively multiplayer online (MMO) game series, will release June 26, 2003. The Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided online fan community now exceeds more than 500,000 registered members.
At launch Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided will offer four subscription plan options: Month-to-month - $14.99; three months - $14.00 per month; six months - $13.00 per month; and 12 months - $12.00 per month. By subscribing to any of the latter three plans, players can expect savings of up to 20 percent over the month-to-month rate. Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided has a suggested retail price of $49.95, and includes a 30-day subscription to the game. A special collector's edition, which includes a book of game-related art, in-game wearables, pewter figurine, lapel pin and patch, and a signed manual, will be available for a suggested retail price of $79.95.
The game runs fine on my secondary machine. I get like 40FPS with the settings on high on 1024x768. Im running a AMD Athlon XP 1600+, 1GB PC2100 RAM, GeForce4 Ti4200 with AGP 8x on a Gigabyte GA-7VAX-A Motherboard. My main machine gets about 60 FPS with alot of peeps around but its an Athlon XP 3000+, 1.5GB PC3700 RAM and an ATI Radeon 9800PRO 256MB on the same board as the other machine. If people are having performance problems and they are running a better system then my secondary one, they must be doing something really wrong. I think the game just frustrated them so much they are exagerating on how it runs. I havent enountered a bug or problem in this game in the last 3 days.
