    Just saw this video of Space Combat in the Old Republic!

    Looks AMAZING!

    Cancel all the rest of the game, I just want more space combat! Its all I want!

    Also why the HELL are they not making more Space Combat games! Look how amazing they look with the latest tech - SOMEONE give me Freespace 3.

    What's up with the camera? Is it following a preset trail, and you just shift your ship left or right and shoot? :eyebrow:

    They've just removed the HUD etc to pimp the graphics. Looks quite good. :)

    So they've added a shooter on rails in space? Not sure why I should be getting excited about following a preset path while whacking the fire button. Can only hope that video is a very very limited preview of space combat.

    That was my thought although hopefully the vidoe just makes it look like it's on rails and the real thing that is happening is the camera has a large buffer zone.
