As BioWare's Sean Dahlberg said about Star Wars: The Old Republic activities for E3:

If you mean our updates, yes. We'll be updating the website each day with something new from E3. The daily updates (meaning a new update each day) won't be starting until June 14th (in the afternoon). In fact, if you watch the count-down banner on the homepage, you'll know exactly when we'll first update the news article.

DH E3 Content:

...the Darth Hater team will have coverage from on-site at E3, and in-depth looks at the official updates every day.

Monday, June 21 at 6p PST / 9p EST - Live Q&A with the Darth Hater team on our Vent server to answer all of your questions. Set your Ventrilo client to vent.darthhater.com with port 26166 in order to participate.


No true Hater would be without proper attire, so we decided to make available for purchase to the general public four of the eight shirt designs the team is wearing at E3. Click on your favorite Star Wars: The Old Republic MMORPG pillar to purchase.

I've got a question about personal ships. It could very well be too early to ask questions, but we only saw two ships during the conference yesterday. Will each class have its own unique ship that they can customize? Or will there only be one main ship for each faction?

Looking forward to Darth Hater updates!

If you look at the blueprint shots in the videos, it shows Jedi Player Ship / Sith Player Ship. odd choice of words if they intended to only have two ships total, would probably be more like Republic Player Ship / Empire Player Ship.

Just a thought

I think the first one, well there wont be, surely, only one ship per faction. cant imagine trooper, smugler and jedi in a same type of a ship..
 
Comment by Jaswar made on June 17th, 2010 at 3:56pm
be 8 unique ships in total as it seems 4 ships per side
 
Comment by Jaswar made on June 17th, 2010 at 3:55pm
they said each class has a unique ship unto itself . so sith,jedi,bounty hunter, trooper will all have there own ships.. we saw the jedi and sith transports in the videos..have yet to see the other 6 class ships being offerred

Has BioWare ever given a straight answer on why Nal Hutta is called just Hutta? It bugs the lore nerd in me that Ord Mantell gets its full name but Nal Hutta doesn't. I'd love if someone could get an answer from the developers. -edit- I get that the Holonet page says "the planet more commonly called Nal Hutta", but if that's the case, wouldn't it be called that on the Holonet and in-game since it is the more commonly called name? For a "more commonly called" name, it's not used much by BioWare when referring to the planet.

Thanks! Flying in one of those small commuter jets at a crazy early hour and I always get nervous in those.

What's with the Combat shirt, is it just me that sees the horrible photo work on the badly masked hair? Or does the hair come painted on the shirt? In which case, Rock On!

Open up guild recruitment for SWTOR and I'll purchase a t-shirt. Just saying.
Also, any live streaming of video feeds or just audio? I know you guys did this for a few conventions last year and it was quite interesting. We were able to chat with each other during the Q&As and such which was very interactive.
I have no idea if this is even allowed at E3 and sorry if I missed a post about this already. I'll be looking forward to the Q&A!

Whatever we can broadcast live with video, we will do so. :)

As for guild recruitment (I assume you are asking about DH's guild), We Can't Talk About That Yet(tm).

Emlaeh learning from Bioware responses!!! hahaha. I really hope to learn more about what DH plans to do along the lines of guild/clan/cooperative gaming for TOR. I bet many in the community are interested in this as well. I agree with Hewo, DH gaming recruitment confirmed and I will by a shirt right now! Probably combat, but second option would be story.

We have been using Bioware responses for quite some time. We were telling everyone "the forums would be live soon(tm)" since before PAX '09.

As far as the shirts go I love them and cant wait until E3 when I get to wear one!
