It really depends on how overpowered jedis will be in the game.

If I were to play this game, jedi probably wouldn't be my first choice.

But who knows... If you can force choke... -_-
I liked choke, and it was very good, but for me it was all about either A:force storm or B: the various light side buffs or C: A and B. Mostly choice C. Though force wave was another of my favorites. I would use plague when I felt like being just plain sadistic.

Urgh, go through the official site, you'll see sickeningly repulsive comments from the members that sound like some kind of bad Trekkie convention...

There's probably a good reason they DON'T surround the heroes -_-

Because every time that happens, someone gets killed. And usually, the 'troopers.
Hey, you get to play the essential role of the Redshirt.

Amusing to see a trooper that looks strangely similar to the clone troopers... approximately 4,000 years before they were even around. But that's just nit-picking.

The real question is... will I even play it? *sigh* Decisions.....

Just remember, folks, the Old Republic's military, and in fact, the whole of the Old Republic have a strict "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy. ;)

Probably not.

I'm still waiting for them to announce interstellar combat as a feature. Once they do; fuck Jedi, I'm going straight for the pilot.
Another pilot type. Good call my friend.
Aww, I thought I was the only one.

We should totally group up and become space pirates or something.

As for how to handle Jedi without the lightsaber...

Thank you.. Thank you a million times over!

Edit: woops, forgot to comment on the OP.

I always wondered why somebody would continue as a long range fighter (except force powers) in KoTOR. Now I'm beginning to wander why somebody would continue to play as one of these classes (Bountyhunter or the Trooper). But if you start out with them and eventually gain jedi-ism then it's okay.

Man, I think TOR will be the first MMO I'll play ever! :)

Yaaar!

Ah, terrible joke. I apologize.

Bounty hunters I can see, but the Star Wars canon clearly puts troopers as nothing more than canon fodder to be taken down by the hundreds or thousands at a time.

Just imagine all the PC's are Commando's. Infact, thats what they are if you read the website. The "Trooper" class are the elite recruited from within the Republic Military, then given special training.

And if you wanna know how badass that is, just play Republic Commando.

I'm gonna go with whichever class is a healer. There's never enough healers around usually.

I was HOPING this had something to do with Republic Commando. Am sad now.
Man I wish they'd make a second Republic Commando. They left this massive opening for a second one yet they come out and say that they aren't doing another. Pricks.

I guess the game didn't have enough fuzzy aliens and romance for George Lucas.

F*CK you Lucas. Learn to share your toys.

Same here.

The trooper seems alot like galaxies 'commando'...

Speaking of galaxies, its amazing how much they fucked up the classes...for those who havent played, heres a few classes.. 'Smuggler' pretty much a shittier han solo. 'Musician' Yeah, musician. 'Dancer' ...the fuck?

I hope this game isnt fucked up.
