I'm glad you get off on ruling my soul.

Does this bubble block fire? Because, just saying...we Sith have many agents under our employ.
(Or do you have an Omni-Bubble that blocks fire and mind tricks too?)

Nah, you could easily do both of those. Except maybe Mind Tricks depending the the resilience of the Trooper?

I hope as the "caster" class specializations go for Jedi/Sith we can choose Sith Sorcery (disables/mind control) as well as the typical, already shown Force Lightning (DPS/Support).
Also, maybe an important aside: In the interview in PC Gamer, betraying your faction was essentially confirmed by James Ohlen. In the article a question was asked about Miraluka being available to the Imperials. His response went as such:
"They will only be available for Republic classes during character creation. That's not to say, however, that you can't have an Imperial/Sith player that is in fact a Miraluka."
Now, without going into random speculation about achievements and micro-transactions and crap....he essentially said that you can change allegiances in TOR.

EQ2 had something similar, where you can start on one side and the betray via a big quest. You can then be the good race as an evil class (or vice versa). But if you were a good-only class and switched to the evil side, you became the evil class. I'm guessing something similar here. E.g. if you were a sith bounty hunter, then switched to the republic side, you would be converted to a trooper.

I may have to eat some crow
I finally got around to watching the "in game" video last night. I gotta say it does look pretty amazing. Just to think that I'll be getting a ship I can customize and then fly through some cinematic awesomeness is giving me nerd bumps. I still worry that I'll grow bored with it after a couple runs, but maybe as they add group combat and PvP (still wonder how though) it will stay fresh and entertaining.

I honestly wouldn't mind if they held off on the PvP a bit. A common trend between the last few MMOs is that they're so focused on giving PvP right off the bat, which is great, but the end game seems to suffer quite a bit as a result, or the PvP is half finished. Give me the option to duel but otherwise make the leveling as fun (and preferably non-repetitive as possible, or if it's necessarily grindy make it group based. Chain pulling and BSing was always a lot of fun in DAoC). Then again, all I want to do is stab shit with a lightsaber.

The space section doesn't look so bad. It's not X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter good, but at least you can get out there and blow shit up. And when you're in an action packed science fiction universe centered on the conflict between two religious factions, what could be more important than that? I'm sure they'll add more to it later, I would have preferred that they wait until all of it was ready, rather than just throw some crap out there to appease folk. They SHOULD have the core elements done, before they start branching out.
And on the other topics, while Rer is duking it out with Pazz and Tak, I'll be sneaking past him to plant explosives, steal data, and find a good sniping position, or possibly all of the above. Can you block a rifle round from two kilometers away? I guess we'll see...
I got all I wanted, so naturally, I want more

Well, he's not going to be a Jedi, so he can try to block it with his hand all he wants....it's just going to go through it
