Now the Star Wars universe wouldn't be itself without a vast number of our old time classic planets to revisit and hopefully some new ones to sink our teeth into. At the moment Bioware have confirmed some of the oldies like Korriban, Coruscant, Alderaan, and Tatooine will be present alongside the addition of some new ones like Tython, Hutta, Ord Mantell, Balmorra and Dromund Kaas. Each will have it's own unqiue setting and atmosphere that will help you to dive in at the deep end and truly become immersed in the experience.
A total number of eight classes have been confirmed; the Galactic Republic consists of the Trooper, Smuggler, Jedi Knight, and Jedi Consular while the Sith Empire will be comprised of the Bounty Hunter, Sith Warrior, Imperial Agent and Sith Inquisitor. One major issue Bioware will face is in trying to properly balance the classes. We're all for variety, but how does any non-Force user stand up to a Jedi or Sith in combat? On the one hand we could have Force users complaining that they're not powerful enough, as on the other hand every user would be playing as one because they're unbeatable in combat.
