Planet Coruscant Revealed - Trailer 
by sado
, posted September 4th, 2009 at 7:08 PM
Planet Coruscant was just announced during the PAX Star Wars: The Old Republic demonstration and as such we were lucky enough to be able to record the trailer of the planet shown via the demonstration stage screen, hope you like it.


We also have a high-resolution direct link for the video. If you download the video via the direct link you will have to have the Divx codec or use VLCPlayer to view it. Note: This was recorded via a cam, so not a direct feed. Hopefully they post a direct feed of the trailer later. Thanks has to go to Pete and Sleeper (two members of the team here at Darth Hater) for recording it for us.

If you liked the video please Digg it if you would be so kind. :)

Update: We now have an HD version of the trailer that we recorded on the 3rd day of PAX.

Fantastic job Pete and Sleeper! Well this is awesome news, but do you think that's all the reveals they will give? I'm thinking maybe saving the best for last? However I have never been to any game conferences like this and do not know how they are laid out. Anyways, keep up the great work guys, much appreciated!

Who knows ;)

I wouldn't be surprised if they showed something today.

Awesome! Thanks so much.
It doesnt look like holonet planets video or "diverse worlds", its more like advertisment trailer. I guess it mean something :)

Looks like your video has met the dreaded 300 view bug and is no longer reporting any new views on the video :(

He said harvesting... I wonder if they mean WoW-type harvesting or SWG-type harvesting! My money is on SWG-type harvesting since it was only the best type harvesting in an MMO to date and that dev I'm told is working on TOR too!

...on yeah and kick ass on Coruscant being a planet!
Comment by Savage Daddy made on 9/6/09 1:37:11 AM
I personally do not dig seeing harvesters all over the land. I hope they come up with a better concept than that.

look at that cloak at 1:09.
fucking awesome right there.
Comment by Rabbykayn made on 9/5/09 10:16:37 PM
The only problem I see with the cloak is the upper body looks like it's painted on.
Comment by Rabbykayn made on 9/5/09 8:59:29 PM
I hope this is a high quality release next week.

Cheers to the boys for capturing this for us.
Comment by Dekun made on 9/5/09 7:59:05 PM
It's great that Coruscant has finally made it's way into a game, and I hate to be the Hater, but it's still just another zone. Bioware has proven they have a ton of cool gimmicks in TOR, but none of that will mean anything if the gameplay isn't any fun.

Don't get me wrong, a lot of the stuff appears to be very cool. But, what it all boils down to, and what they refuse to talk about, is that the combat shown so far is very underwhelming. Like Mass Effect (thankfully they are addressing this in the sequel) and all the other Bioware games (yes, I thought KotOR's combat was very weak too), I hope gameplay doesn't end up taking a back seat to story and flash. It's fine in a single player RPG, but if I'm going to be investing years into a game, it's going to have to have great gameplay/combat.

An example: WoW has few gimmicks and little flash, but what it does possess is tons of... Gameplay.

Of course, all the above is my opinion - feel free to cry me a river if you disagree.
Comment by Chasted made on 9/5/09 8:03:34 PM
I have a feeling I'll be one of many posts but to what we have seen of the combat it seems to follow the WoW's style with it's own unique flair. In a general video when watching a person do PvE on WoW it looks bland and lacking but as some of you know, when you are actually raiding it is far from that.

This is my own opinion and it's an internet forum so my tears will be kept for real life though, sorry :(

Oh yeah, I think we now have next Fridays update, don't you think?

Huge uptick in the pace of announcements, lets hope the pace continues ;)
Comment by DirectX made on 9/5/09 7:49:59 PM
Its impressive that they can make a planet like this work for mid-range machines. BioWare devs rock ^.^

Seeing the demo up on the big screen gave me an evilgasm.
Comment by Chasted made on 9/5/09 7:48:59 PM
Oh my... Is that a Selkath ship there? Wait, no, damnit. Oh as for Couscant, it looks so clean and purdy.

Yup, they are spending tons of money and taking directions from headquarters quite well. Pete also manages to sit real still for the footage.

I think Sleeper was the one sitting real still there ;)

Comment by Zoidberg made on 9/5/09 9:24:14 PM
You and I have both spoken with him and vent and he does not come across as the type that sits still.
Comment by Mindfields made on 9/5/09 7:14:18 PM
Seriously, absolutely awesome. Not even big shot game press websites are getting the info out like DarthHater.com
