This weekends conclusion of the beta left you tube with quite a selection of game play videos. Apparently, the story is AMAZING! If you don't like story and you just like to go kill things, wow might be more your flavor. The spoken dialog makes your choices seem that more significant, and enjoyable. From what I could see the space combat is more of a rail shooter. If you were expecting the freedom in control like that in X-wing vs. Tie Fighter, you might be slightly disappointed.

      Players will be able to select their advanced class at level 10, once they leave their starting area. At that time you will also gain the ability to pick up gathering and crafting processions. You can pick a total of 3 professions, and only one of them can be a crafting profession. Some of the professions allow you to gather things from the environment while others seem like you send your companions out to gather for you.

      At around level 16, your class quest leads you to your starship. Group content is often done in groups of 4, and the instances are referred to as flashpoints. There are heroic quests also that might require 2 or 3 depending on your level.

     Hollocrons are hidden throughout the game that increase your stat points. If you come across any, email me a location and a screenshot and I'll add it to our database.
