Star Wars Galaxies Galactically Updated

The Official FAQ to the future king of MMORPG's (call it a hunch - king does not mean best, that's for time to tell), Star Wars Galaxies, was given some slight modifications by one of those droids which/who/that I'm sure worked on 3PO. Here's one:

Are there zones like in EQ?

Not exactly. The "zone model" doesn't really apply to Star Wars Galaxies. We will have contained areas designed for exploration, combat, player interaction, and travel, but the transitions between these areas will be seamless and automatic. Players will feel like they are adventuring across large sections of a planet, rather than hopping from zone to zone. Each world will have several areas, including settlements and wild regions.

Whew to that =)
