well i have. I said that there are features that are to be expected as a basic layout on which "preference features" can be added

BASICS (example)=customizable UI, armor dyes, thorough GFX adjustability

FEATURES (example)=world events, open PvP, housing, sandbox, RvR, all the stuff thats up there in the ads.

Yes, I agree, you can't expect everything anybody might prefer into a game. And no, you shouldn't rate a game based on features that are purely a question of taste. But you can expect a basic game to be there and expect a developer to invest as much as commonly required into the field to churn out the very basics.

And this thing was beta tested??

 

 

missions are not broken for the smuggler, ive done all of them up to lvl 50, all sidequests i could find so far. people call shinanigans of bugs but all they have to do is re read the mission and look a little and it works out. yeh guild windows are broken have to re load ui every now and then. ctrl U twice = temp fix. but i can not say it was flop of a game. im ready to start another toon and begin a new story. i just hope for warzone where people are 10 lvls apart. being boosted in stats does not give the skills the higher lvls have hahaha. world pvp is great fun.

1 out of your 3 basics isnt remotely basic, and one of the other 3 is on the way.  The GFX adjustability is probably fine for 95% of its customers, Ive never seen an ingame comment about it, thats for sure.  I know there was plenty for me to tweak, but like most people i dont have a top of the line system so I have no need for anything further.

 

For features, how can you expect world events in a week old game?  Give it time.  There is an entire planet for open PvP.  There is a form of housing.  There are companions.  Whatever the legacy system will be.  

 

 

If the rest of the game was shallow and bland like Rift then I would be more concerned with no macros.  But the stuff thats missing is easily fixable, whereas a lot of the stuff games like Rift and Aion lack isnt easily fixable.

Glad your having a blast OP, yet to try SWTOR as im an Aussie and can't buy it yet, but looking forward to. Don't listen to any haters all that matter is that you enjoy it. Looking forward to a Bioware MMO as I really like the majority of their single player games as I am a RPGer from way back and the questing seems very interesting to me. A bit weary of the pvp system (versing 50's etc especailly by the time we get it in Australia) but that will not stop me from giving it a go as I am a pvp junkie and these classes look very intersting to me, hopefully they may make a few new servers for us newcomers.

Im having a blast too. By far the best leveling experience I have ever had in an mmo. My only issue with the game is it tends to get sluggish when I go indoors. But that willl be addressed as soon as I update my video card.

MMOs played:SWG,NGE,Warhammer, World of Warcraft, Star Trek Online,Eve, Star Wars the Old Republic.
Favorite MMO: Star Wars the Old Republic
Least Favorite MMO: NGE

MMO sandbox games are as exciting as watching paint dry.

Game environment is what really kicks arse IMO. It has been over 5 yrs since I left EQ/MMOs, and man this game looks as good as some single player games.

 

I wouldnt mind more environment sounds eventually,but with all the nice looking backgrounds, and folks in zone, I sure dont wanna see them add anything right now that could possibly affect lag.

Asking Devs to make AAA sandbox titles is like trying to get fine dining on a McDonalds dollar menu budget.

Great graphics only do not make a great game. For me it's all about gameplay.

WOW,eq2,Vanguard,WAR,LOTRO,AOC,Rift Aion, SWTOR etc.

Currently subbed to TERA.

i agree so far this game has been good, it's a really good get away mmo ( at least for me )

but the only thing that making this game a flaw is that, it has too much instance, which kinda kill it, but other than that

the gameplay is awesome, i give  this one to Bioware for making an awesome storyline of all the quests

So What Now?

Mail between main and alts?  I mail my alts all kinds of stuff.......  This is probably the least bug free mmo launch ever.....

Classes are very well balanced for bein newly released. No real negatives except the few bugs ive come across. The amount of negative comments on here is really surprising. Then again most people are idiots, what a coincidence....

Even though the gameplay is similar to WoW (which is'nt a bad thing) the game really does not give me a  WoW vibe. I never really experienced MMO like this which is really refreshing. Anyways you owe it to yourself to check this game out. The atmosphere is trully great, the voice acting is world class. The group instances are extremley well made. No game has done such a good job on instances ina newly released MMO, ever.

 

Back to lvling. See you guys there :D

Totally with you. This is my best MMO experience in at least 6 years, and its hard to imagine going back to the more mundane MMOs out there now that SWTOR shown just how well storytelling in an MMO can be done.

Current MMOs: Rift, Tera, SWTOR, DDO
