First you should have done alittle research and then you would know the game is dieing and was released in 2003. The game had alot of bright spots, including the THE BEST crafting and economy of any game to date. They also killed the game by basically revamping everything. I had more fun and was into it more than any other game. I was a very light Star Wars fan before I played and after a month into it I was a Star Wars die hard fan.  20 minutes of any mmo or rpg shouldn't be enough to make a solid conclusion of a game.

yes this game does suck

Does that help?

IMO that's all the time that's really needed, when the free CTS was open, I spent a week in it, I couldn't bear it any more than 20 minutes at a time myself, I even went to do instances with the guild and it wasn't that great.

 

BTW your sig reminds me of that quote from Tommy Boy; "if you like, I could take a crap in a box and put a guarantee label on it and people would buy it.". If this game didn't have the "Star Wars" IP, it wouldn't be alive today after the NGE.

Well to be honest a development team can only do what you allow them to do or give them resources to do.

There are actually people who still play and enjoy the game and I don't want to insult any of them.  I'm just going along the lines of if you take the average MMO player who didn't start with UO or EQ1 or any of the first wave of MMO's.

Then you dropped them into SWG in its current form.. no I don't think it would take more than 20 minutes or even 20 minutes to lose them.  OH and by the way... that doesn't mean a "wow player".  It could even mean someone who started in... DAoC.

I actually only ever came to this site due to the NGE quite honestly.  I'm glad for the people who still play SWG and enjoy it (that they have a game they enjoy).  My response previously was obviously not coming across that way.  I just think one could relate to the reality of SWG for people who don't have friends that stayed or just want to be in a Star Wars universe that much.  Even if this was an entirely new product... its still not really in a release state and its certainly not what a game set in its time period in the Star Wars universe should be.

(that's why they should have picked a different time frame or done what UO did and basicly said it was in an alternate "world" version... which is why UO didn't have to follow what the single player Ultima rpg's had done).

You can change the screen resolution before you log into the game in the Launchpad under Options, the same setting is available in Station Launcher too.
Let me know if you can't find it and I'll look up more exact steps to find these options.

Ohh, was it really that simple xD, never tryed that you have to change it in the launcher, bye thanks you so much ^^.

you should be able to become a level 80 ent in 24 hours tops (if you were to not log out) .   You have to keep switching to the highest level dance as you level up and do lots of flourishes.   

At one time was the best of the MMOs.

All moot though when SOE loses the Lucas license.

Well he isn't a vet, but maybe he is trolling. But why is he not allowed his opinion? Because you don't agree with it? Some people like SWG, some don't. While I see no point in posting about the fact that you hated it after trying it for 20 min, I guess based on the rules of these forums he is free to do so. It's not like he bashed any of you. /shrug.

Locking Thread:  The thread is doing nothing but inciting further trolling.
