I'd like to ask MMORPG.com and other sites to do a second review, or at least justify the scores that they have given this game.

In particular I'd like to see where all the references to 'Polish' came from, considering that in my opinion (and many, many others), SWTOR is one of the least polished AAA  titles to be released since before Warhammer Online.

It seems like all objectivity and honesty went out of the window on this one guys.

Not sure where you are comming from when you say that SWTOR has no polish. I have no problems playing the game with no lag any where in the game. I feal that the classes are very balanced. When I see most people complain about a class is bacouse they dont know how to use there class.

The only complaint I could see anybody have is the light flashing bug in the game. That is from there being holes in the objects that the modlers never closed off. SWTOR says they are aware of that and they said that they are working on them and fixing them. some of the planets that have this problem have gotten better.

If you are talking about Illium Bioware has already fixed some of the PvP problems. They and are working on the rest of the problems. If you are complaying about Illium then you have been playing for to long anyways becouse Illium is a LVL 50 planet. meaning you played the game till lvl cap. If you made it to lvl cap then there was somthing that you liked to make you play that long.

Over all for me it was one of the best mmo launches I have been in, in a long time.

For me if I have a complaint it is that im am an altaholic. So I have way to many toons on mutiple servers.

 

If you say SWTOR has NO POLISH can you be a little more spacific??? That is a very broad statment.

I'm always surprised to see comments like this. I can't believe the multitude of bugs and game breaking issues are not experienced by everyone - when in a guild of over 100 players, almost everyone has problems and the whining on Teamspeak is endless.

It may be that you are on a low/medium population server and some issues are worse on a higher pop server, I dunno.

Anyway, the issues are not only too numerous to mention, but they have been posted hundreds of times already. I suggest you dig around the forum a bit for enlightenment.

EDIT: Here's a start:

A re-review would probably result in the same ridiculous high-score (you know why) and another community uproar following about it.

I'd rather not see another hype-piece about it on the mainpage. They are already pushing against the growing negative opinions among players, although not as hard as they did with Rift.

The game is polished. I have yet to run into any of these issues.

They usually won't do a re review for about a year. Or in he case of say AoC they waited almost 2 years.

Re-review in a year sounds right but they wont right now.

My experience:

I've been playing since Jan 8th, level 40 now, I've only encountered 2 bugs the whole way and one has been fixed (Green lines across Tattoine).

Not saying there are not bugs to be fixed, just giving my experience so far

  All of these media sites cant possibly do re-reviews...........they have already cashed EA's check.

Considering I purposely haven't discussed any particular issues, that's fine :)

But glad to see you're one of the few who haven't.

"these are not the issues you're looking for" :P

I haven't actually experienced any game breaking bugs or anything since launch but that doesn't change the fact its still one of the most uninspired and boring games I have played in years and that's coming from a star wars fanboy... hell I even enjoyed Episode I..

I thought their review was pretty spot on, a little low if anything.  It's a great game, sorry you don't enjoy it.

Like I'm the odd one out lol.

80% of the guild are not re-subbing or have already left.

Make light of it as you will. The damage is already done and BW need a miracle to pull this one back.

Do you need the game rating to drop to validate your decision of not playing it?

If they have an ad banner here then its a polished and great game. Deal with it. Check youtube for game reviews.

I don't know how/when they decide to do reviews and re-reviews, but isn't it a bit early to re-review this.

 

It's only a model

I'd like the rating to be realistic and I'd like people reading the review not to be suckered into making a bad purchase decision.

Tell me, although you seem to having a great experience with no problems, do you seriously believe that the rest of us are making it up?

clearly anyone who likes a game you dont was paid off.

 

Reality check, not every review you dont like is paid for, grip on reality, get one.

Apparently stating the truth in my sig is "trolling"
Sig typo fixed thanks to an observant stragen001.
