The Star Wars: The Old Republic Forums have details from Damion Schubert where the lead combat designer on BioWare's upcoming MMORPG discusses the delicate balance of death penalties in MMORPGs, and how they will be handled in The Old Republic. Also, there's a new Flashpoints Overview on the Star Wars: The Old Republic Website (thanks VG247) describing some of the flashpoints in the game, which are described as "action-packed, story-driven adventures that test a group of players to their limits, putting them up against difficult foes in volatile situations." The overview includes a trailer and some screenshots of specific flashpoints, and promise more to come in the future.
