Have any you checked out this game that hopefully will be out next year, and the beta will be late this year.

It somewhat reminds me of the old SWG. Just my opinion

Yep, been keeping my eye on it for a while now :)
Hopefully I can get into the beta but never can tell.

I first saw mention of this in the BioWare Off-Topic forum, in their thread for speculating about Bioware's upcoming MMORPG. As I said in that thread, this list of features almost sounds like my personal wish-list of features for a MMORPG -- although I'm not sure how I feel about the notion of gaining XP while not logged in and playing.
Key Features:

- A unique post-apocalyptic setting where the cloned remnants of mankind battle to survive and rebuild. Yet while humanity may have evolved, human nature remains as treacherous as ever…
- Highly customizable characters with over 100 different skills, abilities, and tactics. No artificial "class" restrictions get in the way of making the character you want. (Ding!)
- Fast-paced action combat featuring dynamic targeting, customizable power armor, huge mechanized exoskeletons, and hundreds of high-tech weapons.
- Sophisticated Player versus Player (PvP) mechanics that let you fight for the established order, join the revolutionary underground, or carve your own bloody path as an independent criminal.
- Territorial conquest and defense that matters. In your domain, you create your own rules – or let anarchy reign.
Character progression that keeps you advancing in your career even when you’re not logged in.
- An advanced market-based economy with in-game supply and demand based on player activities.
- Deep crafting mechanics that let you design and manufacture unique items from customizable blueprints and raw resources.[/list=]
