The_Laughing_Man, Lies, Vonocourt, I don't know about you guys, but the way I've always seen it is that it makes perfect sense in-universe due to the way hyperspace is said to work. You can't travel in a straight line to where you are going, because you'd splat into solid objects along the way. Instead, the ship's computer has to work out a path to 'thread the needle' so to speak and the more powerful and efficient the computer, the shorter number of turns you'll have to make. So having a really good hyperspace computer would actually reduce the number of kilometers/lightyears/parsecs you'd travel over the course of a long trip, especially if you tweaked the tolerances when it came to how close you allowed it to cut the corners. I don't know if that's the explanation Lucas has ever used, but that's the one my pre-teen self came up with to explain it and it's worked for me ever since. =]  
On-topic, this is pretty comparable to BF1943 at first glance. It even looks like the characters have the same modelers. o_O

i hate this star wars nobody dies the only episode i'm really gonna see is when asoka or whatever her name is dies

Seems like an act out of desperation. Everything they've done in the past 7ish years has failed horribly. Milking their relationship with LucasArts + the success they've had with free to play, micro-transaction crap. 
 
The demographic is pretty obvious, tweens with their mothers credit cards.

im a bit confused as I assumed the kotor-style-mmo would be the new galaxies for everyone. But thats cool, star wars is for babies now, (see trailer)

I'd play it for trophies if they put it out on PS3.  It's not every day you get to grief little kids while trophy whoring a kids' game.  Usually you've got to sit by yourself with your PS3 logged off so no one asks what the hell you're doing.

Okay, I'll say it. Graphically it really does not look worse than SWTOR :-/

" That show is so godamn terrible. Although there is an episode where George Tekei does  guest voice. "

I liked the prequels, and over a long period of meditation and going back-and-forth on them think I have it figured it out when I say that people who shit all over the new ones and then herald the old ones...realllly didn't understand Star Wars in the first place.  I know that's not a popular thing to say on the internet due to rampant gang passive-aggressivism, the number one killer on our world wide web streets, but whatever.  I like most of the spinoffs, as well, including this new show. (one thing that drives me INSANE, though, is that this is called Clone Wars Adventures, with no "The" as a prefix.  which implies the first, 2D show though it's clearly the latter 3D one.  not to mention there was already a CWA graphic novel series.  again, only bothersome to fanboys.)
 
So, no, this probably won't be as good as Old Republic.  Or maybe even Galaxies (which I have yet to experience).  But if it's free, who really cares?  I'll definitely be checking it out, and if it's not a good game then thankfully no money was lost.

If it's free, I will give it a try BUT I don't see me playing this for more than a few hours.

This game is aimed for my kids.  My 10 yr son and 8 yr old daughter love Star Wars as I do and would play this game on PC.  I'm just glad it's free.  I might even give this game a chance since I pretty much enjoy the Clone Wars cartoon on Cartoon Network.

When I will play a Star Wars mmo it will be the one Bioware makes.

Star Wars The Clone Wars is probably the only thing worth watching on TV now that Lost has ended.  

I'll be laughing when/if it turns out this game beats the bigger ugly one from Bioware.
Or maybe I'll be crying, or definitely doing something.. or I won't care, yeah!

" Star Wars The Clone Wars is probably the only thing worth watching on TV now that Lost has ended.   "

If it's free-to-play, I will absolutely try this out.  There's no reason not to.

F2P sucks. Period.

meh

SOE??   Count me the fuck OUT

Yo, I am 35 years old, loved the original trilogy, and have no problem telling you SWG is an unmitigated piece of shit.  End of story.

SoE couldn't even make a pay ME to play game that I'd touch.

SWG, so bad we made it free.@darkjester74 said:

SWG owned back before SOE ruined it

Idk looks okay to me. I think people get a little too worked up over Star Wars.

i recently canceled SWG after 6 long painful years

It's actually not a plot hole at all-- if you paid attention Obi tells Luke, "If it's half as fast as he boasts we'll have no problems."  Thereby implying that Solo doesn't /really/ know wtf he's talking about, just trying to make his ship sound awesome; meanwhile, Obi realizes exactly what Solo is doing. "

" @The_Laughing_Man:  re-read my post-- the lines imply that Han Solo doesn't know that, while Obi-wan does.  If you don't believe me, re-watch the movies. "

The Kessel System is littered with blackholes. Blackholes pull ships in, but theoretically high speeds can break out of the hole's pull. Most ships have to travel around the system, making their journey 18 parsecs (this is the standard route for most ships). By saying that he made the Kessel run in 12 parsecs, Mr. Solo is saying that he has a ship fast enough to cut straight through the system (shortest distance is a straight line) and resist the pulls of the black holes.  So even though parsecs are a unit of distance, by stating he has a ship that can do it in 12 Han is letting us know that his ship is fucking fast. Now you know!
