You think so? I'd figure Sith Inquisitors will be fucking popular. Do you mean Agents? I dunno, I think Smuggler & Agent will be the least played, but they're the coolest classes in the game imo.

Yeah, Sith Inquis is one of the most highly represented classes right now.
Where do you see that?Baller said:
I've been using the forum to compare interest in each class by looking at Total posts in each class sub-forum: http://www.swtor.com/community/forumdisplay.php?f=34 - and according to that, it's the second least popular class overall only surpassed by the Imperial Agent.

A lot of my friends want to be smugglers/bounty hunters.
Though to be fair, this may be the first MMO I play where I actually roll alt's all the way to max just to see the various stories. I think you'll find a rather diverse group of classes just for the story.

Half the classes are force users in game and on each side (4 out of 8, 2 each side). Almost 50% of the guild being force users is not really that surprising.
Yeah, but the 50% is ONE class. If it was split between the two, it'd be okay.BattleMonkey said:
To further it, add the other three classes together, and you get about the number of Jedi Knights we have.
Anyway, I know it's early and the sample size is small. But I do hope Bioware does something to build up hype for the other classes.

They would have to give away free sexy twilek girl pets to the other classes probably.

I'd join the GAF guild but I would be willing to bet my life you guys will pick a PvE server, so we shall never meet. Unless they do cross-server battlegrounds... *shudder*
In terms of balance, we on the empire side are still heavy on the Sith Warrior class but every other class is even so good distribution overall. I think your gonna have the people that want to try out the jedi roles at first, but then they will become interested in what the other roles play like.

I haven't signed up for the Empire guild yet, but likely will be BH when I do
I originally wanted to be a smuggler until I found out about the Jedi Shadow class and the actual cannon behind them. I've been seriously intrigued by these mysterious characters ever since. And they play an unorthodox role which is something I used to play in EQ, so I'm pretty cool with it.
And I really don't think there'll be many shadows in the guild anyways, I mean most people who are going into the Consular class, specialize as a Consular Sage. :shrug
And also, I think most of us will have an alt toon at max, so it won't be that bad. I'll likely have a Jedi Knight, Smuggler and Tropper alts, I mean if only to play through there entire stories.
And if only a handful of people take the same approach, even like me and two others, thats 3 extra classes each, 9 in total, that we can diversify the guild with.

At this point I am completely torn between the Trooper and the Inquisitor.
The Trooper for the armor and blasters (love the audio).
The Inquisitor just for being a bad ass Sith with the double bladed saber. Don't they have some kind of melee dps option? If so I am all over that.

Interesting, as it ties into the fluff of some of not to recent novels.

Trying to figure the scale on that. Little ants in giant cave, or pretty small cave?
Its pretty cool that we already have 22 members in the Republic Gaf guild.
Btw, is it cool if we're on both the Republic & Empire guild at launch? Just wondering??
I wouldn't be surprised if Jack Thompson was all over this.
I'm sure he'd bring up these points so that SWTOR is banned. XD
Thankfully he's disbarred as lawyer....
