You lie.
Here's hoping they'll let us be Marines, Tech Guard, Orks and Eldar.

The game has nothing to do with the Clone Wars Quick; it's based on the Sith Jedi Wars you see in Knights of the Old Republic, set several hundred years before the prequels. If your going to bad mouth a game, saying it's bad and horrible... at least know some basic information about the game itself eh?
The only reason people are interested in this game seems to be because of the Bioware name tag (whom the developers on this game are not the same team that made Dragon Age and Bioshock) and the Star Wars IP which has been more than overly used at this point.

, seriously Quick.... you can't be this uneducated about it.... really... there is just no way......

I think this game is just another shameless WoW Clone they're not realy adding anything innovative to the genre or indeed taking any risks at all realy.
... You didn't look into this game at all.. did you.
It's pretty... blatant.

I've seen Biowares famous ''Storytelling'' ability in demos of the game and I was not impressed in the slightest especialy so because it seems to be the games biggest selling point (other then their overly obnoxious pointing to their Star Wars IP),
You admit to only playing demos, so how does the opinion you have about something only realizable in a full game even matter?
and it does not help when the actual gameplay between the ''Storytelling'' is just another mediocre copy of WoWs (or should I say Everquests) combat system
This makes absolutely no sense. Combat and storytelling are two different aspects of the game. The dice-rolling semi-turn-based system is what makes the mmorpg genre what it is, and again that has nothing to do with story.
, with the tired old rules of Tank up front dps in the middle healers at the back,
SWTOR holds far less rigidly to it than WoW, so why you're bashing it and not WoW is beyond me.
realy with games like these being descriped as AAA its no wonder the genre hasnt evolved from the late 90's.
No genre has evolved in the way you want MMOs to.
proper space combat
Where did they promise "proper" space combat? ...whatever that means...
They promised "highly cinematic, controlled combat moment" and that's exactly what we've been shown. There is nothing wrong with on-rail space combat....just like there's nothing wrong with dungeons with walls.
''revelutionary'' combat
To quote the forums:
Bioware has never said the word "revolutionary". They've used words like "heroic", "cinematic", and "action-packed" to portray their combat system. They've done away with auto-attacks, each class plays very differently, its much faster paced, you face off against multiple mobs at a time, and now things like blocking, deflecting, clashing of lightsabers, etc., are all in the combat and actually shown realtime, as opposed to reading it on a text log.
THAT is how they describe their combat system. Not revolutionary.
choice of an alian race to play as which isnt a recoloured human (or in the best case a human with a mask on).
Alien species already pre-exist the game. If you don't like the Star Wars backdrop, then the game isn't for you.
I have actualy and it's just aload of small gimmicks they claim to be innovations.
And your post is a load of baseless whining.

I agree that Blizzard (or whats left of blizzard these days) have not been updating WoW in the last few years out of pure lazyness as they know they are already the 1# mmo so theres no point in improving the game any further, I dont even play WoW anymore.Not out of laziness; Blizzard wants WoW to be playable by as many people as possible, whether they have the super uber gaming computers or not. If they do a sudden update and increase everything, they would lose users who don't want to upgrade their current computers.
