Looks great  , At 4:30 i was like wtf. But then i saw it was KoToR instead of ToR

Yeah it's looking great, I'm starting to warm more and more to the overall graphical look now and actually like it quite a bit
Wasn't a big fan of the first images and what we was shown in earliest class previews.

Oh and am I the only one who got really intrigued when they showed some swoop racing at the end? Hope it's a hint that they are working to put it in the game, would be so awesome if you could arrange weekly server wide contests for instance

That would probably be the coolest thing they could ever come up with. Well, maybe not THE coolest, but it would certainly be somewhere at the top of the list.

Swoop PvP? Yes pleeeeeaaaseeeee

Swoop PvP would be so cool!  
That would be a light version of space battle, and a way for Bioware to keep the fans happy while they work on the full scale version  

Also wouldn't it be epic if the game had a seasonal running swoop league, where the winner got some truly spectacular reward (like a title or unique swoop "mount") and then it would reset every second month or so, similar to WoWs arena system.
Just keep it to one official race per day  to give everyone equal chance of winning, and then at the season ending the person with the overall best score is declared champion.


At least I think it would be outrageously awesome if they had something like that

a swoop league - that would be awesome, fingers crossed for something like that
