SDCC Top 10: Was Star Wars: TOR at Comic-Con 2011? Yes. Was the Star Wars: The Old Republic release date present? No. The 50-minute video disclosing no hints.

The description for the YouTube of the Star Wars: The Old Republic's Comic-Con 2011 panel reads as follows: УBioWare developers discuss new gameplay footage, and perhaps spring a few surprises along the way.Ф The first part is true. There's new gameplay footage. The second part is a little misleading. There's still no release date, the surprise we were all waiting to hear. So, if you're watching this nearly hour-long developer and voice actor discussion and question and answer session, know ahead of time that it'll yield no answers or hints.

One thing I did like that I didn't know before? There is a quick-travel-like hyperspace ability, which allows you to move from planet-to-planet faster than in real time. So, while this is a vast MMO of epic proportions, Star Wars: The Old Republic won't eat up all of your time with mundane spaceship voyages.
