  • sounds gay

  • Comment removed

  • Starwars fail game.

  • @perhapsavailable lolol mad bro?

  • @gayroofus123 Not mad at all. Disappointed, yes. And also slightly worried that youngsters grow up believing that "lolol mad bro" is communication.

  • I'm not defending Star Wars Galaxies, but it's space expansion was awesome.

  • @Byrnzi360 You're hired? ^^

  • If you want real space combat.... Eve Online

  • Haters gonna hate

  • How come no matter what video I go to about a game, there are always dooch bags engaged in arguments??? lol...

  • Also spacebar is a dodging move I like to spam. It's easy but fun. The game isn't mean to be a plane only shooting game.

  • Um..you do have control of the ship. You can move with WSAD but the ship follows your mouse pointer. So it moves according to your mouse so saying it auto does it for you is a mistake. Go back to taking English classes, you're not very bright to say something like that. The game's story is awesome and there are dungeons and shit. Please give SWTOR a fair review by someone who understands mmorpgs and rpgs.

  • @Chrno1990 I think he meant you can't fly anywhere in the area. The ship automatically follows a path, but you can move up, down, left, right, diagonally, etc. just not free fly anywhere, and he was just reviewing the Space Combat, not all of SWTOR.

  • LOL @IGN deleting top comments, the vidya mafia xD

  • DO A BARREL ROLL!

  • They took SWG down for this shit?

    That games what, 8 years old and it still beats TOR.

  • guy makes good point in video.. biodrones attack him

  • @vbhalo How clever you took bioware and drone and slapped them together, you are truly a genius english user.

  • amazing! The game looks really incredible

  • we need battlefront 3!!!!!!!!

  • Old republic - Jedi Knights = Freelancer?

  • What an absolutely shit idea

  • Easy? Really try flying the later space mission whitout upgrades then say easy

  • i wish they would remake tie-fighter

  • why dont these JERKS just efffing come out with battlefront 3 already!!!????

  • no lo van a sacar para wii ni para ps 3 ? QUIERO QUIEROO !!

  • finnaly an honest inpresion video from ign

  • Who the fuck let this kid in IGN?

  • Roll on battle front 3!

  • IGN really don't know what real games are. I suppose thats what happens when you become too over critical..

  • @3picFilms IGN isn't one person.

  • @DanMasonify

    I obviously didn't state IGN isn't one person, otherwise I would have said Nick Kolan doesn't know what a good game is.

  • @3picFilms Which is what you should have said, seems as IGN is a huge company that employs a large amount of people and I highly doubt that every single one of them doesn't know what a 'real' game is.

  • @DanMasonify

    Why the fuck would I need to specify that, when you say "IGN" you are stating the company as a brand. Same goes if I said McDonald's doesn't know what a good burger tastes like, I wouldn't be specifying one employee that works there. Don't bother trolling, you've already failed.

  • @3picFilms Calm down, it doesn't matter. I didn't expect you to get so wound up about it. I don't see how I'm trolling as I'm not attempting to offend anybody or start an argument, I was merely trying to make a point, I didn't mean to offend you.

  • @DanMasonify

    You didn't offend me. I'm sorry, but it is people like you who need to make trivial comments about something all the time, I'm merely responding to your inefficiency. I'm finished with this now, don't bother replying. Thankyou.

  • @3picFilms ....

  • This game is freaking awesome. I actually like how space combat is in this game. what a hater

  • It would be nice to see Battlefront 3.......this looks....well, like an MMO version of action.....and it pulls it off about as well as to be expected from an MMO of this type. I would love to see some NEW gameplay additions to MMO's (MMORPG if you prefer) this is pretty much voiced everquest in the star wars universe. aside from the voice acting and story tweaks (which add only to cut scenes and such) I see nothing new here, just spit and polish on an old idea.

  • Think Id rather play Eve.

  • i do think they definetly need to fix space combat with an expansion but if anyone saw any of the previews they shouldnt of been expecting more than what ign is talking about and if you dont like it there is so much more to the game than that

  • makes me want battlefront 3 :(

  • Oh, an Nick Kolan sounds like a cheesedick.

  • Space graphics look a load better than your ground characters

  • its not battlefront... its a simple point and click shooter - it's also fun and a nice break from the rest of the game

  • do i have to pay for pvp

  • @megamanbrandon PvP is included in your monthly subscription =p

  • ign sucks ... unsubbed ... going back to machinima

    delete this ign suck it!!!

  • this is eve online for 5-year old

  • Comment removed

  • it's something nice to do for quick xp and do something else. So I rate it space combat avg rather than ign's pessimistic low rating.

  • wouldnt say that they failed at the space combat, considering that this is not a standard feature in mmo's and that this is bioware's first mmo, pluss it doesnt add anything to the story of any class. This is just a bonus that is fun for some and easy xp and credits :)

  • Comment removed

  • In Soviet Russia, Communism is IGN

  • Yeah it's a nice thing they added to be fair, but it would've been nice if they expanded upon the space game-play. I guess we can always hope that in the future they do expand upon it with patches and expansions. Imagine a complete EVE Online style mechanic for the space part of the game, that would be amazing.

  • @JaTochNietDan Yeah but insanely difficult when you think about it. I mean INSANELY difficult. 

  • Ign: SO... Starwars sux ... GO PLAY mAWdern Wawfare.... (we didn't get payed to say that or anything)...

  • do not want.

  • QQ, its a mmorpg game. Better they took more of the time to make the rpg, PvP and PvE epic than make spacecombat good.

  • IGN... you lie.

  • "That each mission is a show case of nice visuals with a simple shooting gallery layered on top."

    Funny, that's what Call of Duty/Battlefield is yet you give that 10 of 10s...huh.

    Don't get me wrong the combat should've and could've been much more interesting but its okay for what it is.

  • @saviordd1

    no its not.

    in BF you chose where to go, what to drive, what seat you want to use and where exactly you want to go, nobody tells you what to do and the game engine does not push you through a scene where you only have to be pushing the fire button.

    get your facts straight. this mmo stinks by all standards, old gen graphics, bad space combat, childish art, denying that wont help and supporting a failure wont make it a hit.

  • @confuzler Lol you sound a bit mad.

    For one, nope, played the campaign, it was "Shoot your way from point A to B without an exploration or side tracking"

    For two, have you played it? Im guessing no. Considering it has THE fastest first week growth of any MMO EVER and has been receiving almost nothing but praise, I think it'll do just fine.

    Go back to playing your generic shooter 2011 while the rest of us enjoy ourselves :)

  • @saviordd1

    i am actually very mad, because this game ended up being a hoax instead of "the great SW mmo" as advertised for.

    if you only played the campaign in BF3 then you should not be talking about it because it is a tiny part of the game and the most irrelevant. give examples of games you actually played.

    speed of growth is not a metric for how good an mmo is, many mmos claimed the same thing but ended up biting the dust a few months later like AOC.

  • @confuzler Well considering that everyone i talk to in game is pleased I again think itll do ok.

    No, i payed full price for the game, I should get full quality items. If you want to advertise it as an only online shooter then make it 40 dollars instead of 60. If I pay 60 I'll judge the single player. No game should need excuses. And what does that even mean? I play many games.

    And ok, still a great game. So whatever.

  • @saviordd1

    yes, it'll do ok, but we wanted it to do great not just ok like any ok mmo and that's my point.

    if you payed the full price then play the full game then talk about it, if you only played the campaign then your experience is not complete.

    and i don't understand neither why you are comparing a single player campaign mode on an FPS to an mMo.

  • @confuzler Your obviously talking out of your ass about TOR, so I'm not going to acknowledge it.

    Otherwise I played a match of BF3 online, it was COD (Which i hate) with vehicles. Woofreakinghoo

  • @saviordd1

    it doesn't matter from where im talking as long as it makes sense.

    saying that BF3 is CoD with vehicles is like saying that TOR is mapleStory with SW fiction...

    you are clearly comparing TOR to a game you don't even know, if that makes you feel good about playing TOR then its your business, but that doesn't change reality.

  • @confuzler It doesn't though. Thus I ignore it.

    Except you know, COD is a multiplayer oriented FPS, BF3 is a multiplayer oriented FPS.

    Maplestory is a 2D scrolling MMO, TOR is an MMORPG.

    Jesus Christ your so stupid you make me want to punch a puppy.

    Obvious fanboy is obvious. Get over the fact that BF3 is another generic shooter that's trying to dethrone COD, and failing. Have fun.

  • @saviordd1 Actually I think there's nobody on the throne atm. It's more like none of these games achieved to be as revolutionary as cod mw 1 and 2 were .

  • @saviordd1

    its not about BF3 nor about CoD and changing the subject will not change the facts, TOR is an average mmo with dated graphics and dumb scripted space combat, a game that only exists by trying to jump on the SW franchise.

    and yes, i am having a lot of fun playing all those games, Maple story is twice the mmorpg TOR will ever be, BF3 has jaw dropping graphics, realism, sound and multiplayer and CoD has a deep campaign, why wouldn't i be having fun?

  • @confuzler Considering my original point was a joke against those games I think they are very relevant. It's a good MMO, the rest of your points are hogwash said by someone who didn't play it.

    Maple story is for 11 year olds. Graphics don't make a game, if you think so your 12. BF nor COD are realistic, get over it. Sound is sound, most games have good sound. and HAHAHAHA COD? Story? Deep? Wake the fuck up. COD is a cliched shit of a story with nice set pieces.

  • @saviordd1

    again, you are switching from one subject to another and making jokes about other games because you can't present any argument of value, so the facts still stand, TOR has bellow average and dull space fights, the rest is just regular MMO stuff that we have already seen thousands of time... the only thing that is pushing this game is the SW franchise.

    MapleStory, BF and CoD are all successful titles whether you like it or not.

    you should accept reality.

  • @confuzler And the story, and the companion system, and the advanced classes, and huttball, and the crafting system, and etc etc. Seriously, your speaking out of your ass on a game you haven't played. And i make jokes cause why the fuck not?

    Never said they were not successful, they shouldn't be though. Them, and retarded gamers like you who can't tell a good story from a hollywood cliche pit are ruining the gaming industry.

  • @saviordd1 Neither of those games have ever received a 10. Nice try. But fail.

  • @Chigokai1080 hu?

  • this reminds me of freelancer :/

  • ok the game is the best mmo game out there but do-sent have a great space battle now that is a total epic fail

  • SWG all the way

  • Space Combat is fucking awesome. As always, I have totally legit videos on my channel. Space Combat is sick!

  • why the dislikes?

  • I wish they would've made KotOR3 instead of this game. Meh.

  • definetly need a new battlefront to save star wars

  • I love space combat, it's a great change of pace when you return from flashpoints or quests. I can't wait to see what BioWare brings us with the update to "expand space combat in a significant way", it could be off rails, and maybe like a hub world within each space area, where you're able to gather resources and land on asteroids and small space stations.

  • JUST GIVE US GUILD WARS 2 AND DIABLO 3!

  • I saw freddiew's BF3 commercial before this video

  • yes....because the whole point of the entire game comes down to space combat, a part which they added to add depth to the games......idiots

  • Just because it's not like world of fucking warcraft or as easy as call of duty to most of you, you think it's shit, ramming your fucking tongues so far up IGN's anus like you faggots always ALWAYS do. Fuck off back to your shitty easy MMO's that take no skill and die.

  • @Kasamoto91 chill the hell out. its a goddamned video game

  • @mcdoobies24 I am one of the most chilled out people you would ever know, but I am simply pointing out why people are retarded. Just because this game is not as easy as other games it's abused.

  • It's just supposed to be a change of pace from the standard ground-play, can't people understand that? If you want a fully functional space shooter go and fucking buy one and stop hating on an MMO that tries to give you other things to do when you're bored :|

  • @Kharg91 i really want to meet your mom.

  • @Kharg91 It's called STAR-WARS not GROUND-WARS so I'd assume space battles would be a massive part of the game rather than "something else to do when your bored"

  • @usefullstuff

    You realize that star wars is more about jedis and storylines and the characters in them not space battles. Space battles is always an extra bonus for Star Wars. Play the star wars games and watch the movie, ship battles are just a +.

  • @Chrno1990 exactly man, main reason i love starwars, jedi, sith, force powers, and lightsabers XD, oh and lets not forget carrie fisher and natalie portman LOL

  • @Kharg91 They're not keeping the rail shooter system forever.

  • @Kharg91 Well said. I kinda enjoy this railshooter :) You can play it with 1 hand and eating sandwich in the other.

  • @Kharg91 Nice, another tor fanboy defending the game to no avail.

  • hopefully we get an expansion for REAL space combat and travel etc like in SWG

  • YIPPIE!!!!! i didnt buy this game after playing the beta...

  • A Sabre can definitely fu_k up this small "thing"

  • I never liked the space combat in KOTOR

  • I notice ign are deleting top comments again

  • @andrewboylan free thinking is a threat to them

  • @andrewboylan a lot of times thats more of a yt glitch

  • Your videos are cool so I like it. cog up !!

  • Got collectors edition of this, but sadly my laptop broke.... now i have to wait a few months for the alienware x18...... *sigh*

  • I like the way space combat is - fun.

  • dude space combat is fun. nuff said

  • They shoud have taken the space fighting from battlefront II

  • Space combat evolves a little bit around level 40. Even before. Guess ill know more when i hit the cap soon.

  • This makes me miss Galaxies...

  • The first thing I thought when I saw the space combat trailer was "how are they gonna make that multiplayer?" This is about the only aspect about SWTOR that I really dislike. I think even Star Wars Galaxies had better space combat than SWTOR.

  • THE GAYSTATION 3 CANNOT HANDLE THIS GAME

  • @SOLIDSNAKEXXX360

    I notice a pathetic fanboy here. Sad.

  • Hilarious seeing all these haters calling us nerds for playing this, when there spending there pathetic lives on youtube trolling lol

  • @Cloakedsro actually see dragon age 2 and the noticeable story issues with ME 2. DA 2 was down right attrocious with an even number of people on both sides condemning/supporting the game making it as far as i know biowares first Love it Hate it game in the past 10 years. Similarly ME 2 has enough problems it brings flak from non-magazine sources. Though ME2 doesn't damage it's own fiction insessently and still manages to provide a good game sticking to the core ideas in the Mass Effect series

  • @misterhamster90 As you can see from thsoe 2 releases and the fact BW's name has been stamped on an RTS not an RPG we have clear evidence Bioware is begining to sell out/go down hill. That not good enough for you? check out their extensive advertisement of Mass Effect Merch. Rather than letting folks who want it find it by making it obvious they're practically forcing it down Viewers throats. Bioware has been set up for failure by EA at this point. Unless ME 3 is Amazing BW is a sunken ship.

  • are the servers back up yet?

  • Oh Lego Star Wars Advanced -.- how amazing bioware...

  • yeah... its kinda meh... but at least its a cool daily quest or a nice break from a regular mmo

  • It's good to finally hear IGN admitting the game is not all that their hype lead us to believe, even if with much restraint. Time to stop kissing the corporate butt and save your subscribers their game-time and money on this failed attempt at being a WOW-killer. Hype it up again once its free-to-play.

  • @b1bobson They always give negative things about every game and the fanboys rage

  • @b1bobson swtor sucks, guild wars 2 will be the true WOW killer

  • @b1bobson Look dude, Don't expect it to kill wow, it wasn't made to kill wow, it was made to compete with wow and at the same time replace the aging galaxies while being an experiment at a story driven MMO. I'm going to wait for a Trial to actually try TOR and see if it delivers But what i do absolutely know as a Fact is that WoW doesn't need another game to do it. It's Killing itself. gg

  • @RebornAleph LMAO and stay there noob. plz dont ever leave your WoW cesspool.

  • @armorer2142 Noob? Lulz. I've been playing video-games long before you got out of your mother's vagina, kid.

    Stay in your WoW Clone, for all I care. Like all pseudo-"wowkillers", it's going Free-To-Play in Ten... Nine... Eight...

  • @Arenumberg you can't, thats how lame this game is. I want to see a new SWG

  • @RebornAleph ....lol.

  • How could they screw this up??? battlefront 2 had EPIC space combat!!!

  • @jimmymohoney because Pandemic made battlefront 2, not Bioware

  • @jimmymohoney well seeing as bioware didnt make battlfront 2...and its a completely different engine, it would be quite easy to "screw" this up/

  • @jimmymohoney

    Battlefront 2 was made by Pandemic, not Bioware.

  • Was it so hard to make a space combat fighting system like the TIE Fighter series instead of this StarFox wannabe?

  • Wow clone

  • @TGFTH Actually WoW copied many elements from MMORPGs before it so it's safer to say SWTOR is a traditional MMO with a couple of big innovations.

  • lol looks like Lego Star Wars

  • Hehe....he said fly on over....cuz the video's bout space ships....

  • OMG no ones guarding the bridge 

  • its bs when you cant pilot a star destroyer

  • Imagine doing this for months to gain some money..... boring as fuk...Ive seen this gameplay in newgrounds...

  • I wish I could beat that mother f***in Sith at the Jedi Temple so that way I can get my own ship eventually T_T. And noone is willing to help either. So until I can somehow magically beat him, I'm not going to touch this game for the longest time.

  • OH MAN!!!! I WANT THREE ARMS NOW

  • Let me guess: you took an arrow in the knee.

  • @afieqsyabil17 Man I miss that game so underated i thought it would be like that too seeing how it was the best space combat in a star wars game

  • Oh well, i love doing space combat things like this but not if it sucks like that

  • i wish the space combat it was a lil bit more like Star Wars Battlefront 2.

  • @afieqsyabil17 By far the best star wars game

  • @Ineedgames Best MMO too!

  • any bad reviews on stars will bring out the rage of george lucas fanboys

  • Starfox: The Old Republic

  • fan boy review you have been warned this is immpression is entirely opinion i played the space combat and it plays a lot like star fox which was a great game and it does get harder and the objectives get harder as well and there are boss space combat fights at higher levels

  • @assasion17 FAN BOY review? how the fuck is calling to BORING a fan boy review?

  • It's amazing that Star Trek Online, the character/diplomacy/science based TV/Movie series has a better space combat than Star Wars The Old Republic.

  • Honestly Im playing this game I have been since early access, And its one of the most bug ridden, un-original, repetitive, boring mmos ever. It starts off nice but slopes down pretty fast.

  • @OddeyeDL i highly doubt u played this game unless up to lvl 10 max.

  • @JimmyThaCrazy I have 25 valor and like 3k pvp medals. I am only lev 30 granted, but ive seen enough of the game to know it sucks donkey dick.

  • @OddeyeDL and yet u still play? Wow that is just sad, but all the things u said about it are wrong expect for the bugs, every game has bugs specially at the start but this game doesnt even have much. Once again i dont know why would u play a game that apparently sucks "donkey dick", but hey there are some weird people out there.

  • @JimmyThaCrazy I play because my friends play and its a great little socail thing. But as soon as ANYTHING triple A comes out for mmo we are all dumping this piece of donkey dick for something else. Its buggy, its repetitive, its a clone of WoW, it does nothing everyone else isnt doing. This MMO will be dead in 1 year quote me. come back when its free to play and quote me.

  • @JimmyThaCrazy Sorry to say OddeyeDL is absolutely right. I don't mean to offend your opinion or anything, but everything he said is absolutely true. Nothing this game has, beyond the novelty of it being "Star Wars", is that innovative. And that which IS... sorta... new, is buggy, boring and suffers from style-over-substance (much like every MMO you people dub "WoW Killer", at least until they get Free-To-Play'd).

  • @OddeyeDL I kind of HAVE to agree, I made a SI at first, SO happy with him, and at level 26 I got so fed up and down right bored I made a trooper and still playing at level 23, still fun with that though.

  • @Jarshiie Dude totally good game to tide us over till guild wars 2 or diablo 3 tho.

  • go play rogue squadron before you make this video review.....

  • first run: cool

    second run: freakin boring!

  • ONLY ONE PROBLEM .. STUPID VERY EASY GAMEEE ..

    But very cool ...

    Its a mmo for fans ... hardcore players thinks is easy ...

  • Best mmo ive ever played

  • stop complaining you bad game rater >: p get grade 5 + upgrades, EMP gear for your ship and 40+ space missions and then rate it, plus quit asking for a second game within an MMO and do it your self if you want it, space combat is mindless fun meant for extra gain of EXP.

  • GAY!!!
