A lot of news is going to be coming up soon at E3! What do you want to see from BioWare on Star Wars: The Old Republic at E3?

I'm almost sure we'll see a new cinematic trailer. I'm hoping they'll show some more gameplay and if we're really lucky, they'll announce a release date!

Also, I've officially set my mind on Trooper. The Trooper progression video posted on Friday set my decision in stone.

If you haven't set your mind on a class yet, I highly recommend you check out THIS amazing thread. Every single piece of info on The Old Republic has been well organized into this thread! It's updated constantly too.

So, what is it that you want to see at E3? When do you think Star Wars: The Old Republic will be released? Have you decided on a class? I look forward to a response from you guys. :)

as for comparing to kotor, have you played kotor recently? i mean seriously what looked great in 02 looks butt ugly compared to wow in 05.

No it didn't; KoTOR looked like **** in 02, but we played it anyway because it was Bioware and it was Star Wars. It may be that TOR is improved, but it doesn't look any better than KoTOR to me. And I'll still play it, because it's Bioware and it's Star Wars.

KOTOR looks great IMO.

sure you can compare it to Crysis or something like that but it will look like garbage.

But after playing KOTOR so many times, I can't picture it any other way than the way it looks now

:omg:

:omg: indeed, I was at the edge of my seat watching that, especially when the Carth Onasi/Atton Rand wannabe took out his double pistols and started firing! I can't wait for this game, even though I'm a bit sad that we will never know what happened to Revan and the rest of the crew (I'm looking at Bastila Shan and Mira especially :shifty: ).

This is annoying me, I can't login to my account for this and even resetting my password isn't working :(

Dammit

Images and videos do look absolutely amazing though, I am really looking forward to this game. It might be enough to drag me away from LOTRO :blink:

However I think I may revise my original melee char thoughts and go with gunslinger, with lots of crafting on the side

Check out the new Advanced Classes page. I noticed it doesn't work too well in Opera. Try another browser besides that.

I know I want to be a Trooper, but not sure whether I'm going to be a Commando or Vanguard. I need to think it out a little bit... Plenty of time to decide though! :D

*is playing*

*is playing too* jedi sentinel :) twin lightsabers

How is it so far? :)

Those of you playing, what are the specs of the rig you're running the game on? What is your performance like? Just curious since their site still doesn't have anything official.

Are they allowed to talk about that?

Are they allowed to talk about that?

I would think so considering releasing hardware stats has no impact on the content within the game.

Man, I was really hoping BioWare would release a Mac version on day one. Using BootCamp for a MMO doesn't really work for me.

Same here.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones

      By zikalify · Posted

      Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By snowy owl · Posted

      I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
