Great news has come down the pipes!  News we have been waiting for for a long time has finally arrived that Space is Confirmed to be in development for Star Wars The Old Republic.  Once again Sean Dahlberg gets to bust the news wide open in his thread here from the official forums:

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=3645409#edit3645409

First, thank you to all of you who participated in our Comic-Con Reveal mission!  While we didn’t quite make the numbers, we definitely saw how excited the community is about this and how everyone came together. After all of that, there’s no way we could hold back with our special reveal at Comic-Con!

If you’ve been following the news coming out of the Star Wars  The Old Republic panel at Comic-Con International, you’ve heard the announcement that we will indeed have Space Combat as part of the TOR experience! But what does that mean?  Space combat is an alternative gameplay experience to the primary game of storytelling, questing, and ground-based combat. In space combat, you fly your personal ship to various “hot spots” on your galaxy map. From there, you will blast your way through asteroid fields, enemy fighters, frigates, destroyers, and a variety of other obstacles that will evoke memories of some of the great  Star Wars  space battles.

To learn more, pick up the October 2010 edition of  PC Gamer which hits newsstands starting August 17th for screenshots and an exclusive interview or check back with us in the weeks to come.

This is outstanding news for all of us who enjoy space combat and hopefully things like asteroid harvesting and so on.  This is one of the things that I had told myself I would enjoy the game much more so if it were in place.  Slowly my hopes are being realized…. :)

Can you hear it?

It’s the whisperings of,

turning to rumblings of,

an imminent beta approaching!

If you follow the official forums for SWTOR then surely by now you have started to feel the approach of a closed style beta testing phase beginning.  With all the posts of people saying they were invited and all the threads getting taken down that were talking about things they wouldn’t know otherwise it was obvious something was going down.

Have a G9 and wish you could bring your group with you to one of your 3 saved warp points in the galaxy:

First, call your G9 ITV.
Click it to bring up your travel screen, now, before you click where you want to go, call your multiple passenger vehicle, get in the vehicle and have all in your group jump into your vehicle too (must be grouped and able to board your vehicle, same factional status).
Once everyone is in, click your destination on your travel screen which should still be up, now you and all of your group in your vehicle will be ported to your destination.
This also works with the Solar Sail ITV which takes you home.
Does not work with a regular ITV as they do not allow travel while you have a droid or vehicle out. The G9 and Solar Sail do not share this restriction.
This can be very handy to get your entire group to a load point of your choosing all at once.

Requirements:
A smuggler with the ability to cloak ally – they must be in your group

Objective:
Recieve a cloak for about 20-25 seconds while running, driving, etc

We’ve all been hit by the smuggler’s ability to cloak an ally, which stealths you for about 20-25 seconds, which also works on any profession. However, if you try to move with it on you get the message “Moving around too much has revealed you!”

Here’s the fun part:
If the smuggler cloaks you “while” your running, driving, etc, you’ll be cloaked (unless you stop and try to move again). This works with vehicles as well- either the driver or passenger(s) can be cloaked while driving to remain under stealth. This is especially great since if you’re running with powersprint/force run, you’ll continue at that speed cloaked.

My favorite use:
When that pesky bounty hunter is camping the front door of your house, call you smuggler inside to get a cloak ally right as you run out the door! This is pretty useful since you get about 20 seconds head start, and if you can get behind a building when you uncloak you can pull out a speeder.
