Yes, good stuff is coming (again) I'm playing SWTOR since day 1 and I really like it.
Troll me if you want, I REALLY dont care, SWTOR is a great game, and if you dont like it, who care, stay away from this forum and go play kunfu panda... and BTW, if you look in every games forums on this site, every game (mmo) s u c k so...

Originally posted by Paddyspub While it's till the only mmo I play i have to agree with this poster, i get sick of watching struggling mmo's nickle and dime the population with more of the same that isn't working to begin with. I'm not big on mini games but he has a point where is pazaak where are the non combat activities to make someone feel as though they are "living in the star wars universe"? Devs need to start to realize that a new warzone or heroic every month and a half isn't going to fix whatever problems people have with your game and is only really good for people who haven't taken the plunge with the game yet because they are going to start the game and see all this content while most of your diehards will really only see that one new warzone. |

Yeah, Star Wars universe is a different beast than MMOs. It's missing many roleplaying elements that defines the world. They can't keep doing the same MMO forumla and expect to get exceptial results. I hope GW2 will encourage some of these games to get a little more creative.

Not discounting Blizzard quality... but WoW's success is as much about perfect timing as it is quality, if not more so. - Derros |

Wow, after 1.4 my FPS on fleet went from 30-40 to 75-90 on full high settings. Granted there is only like 150 people on fleet that early but never had that high before. New shadows are awesome. Getting 70-90 on planets.

Originally posted by Ahnog ..And who is the audience that this update is proving anything to?
There is no copy-character function on the SWTOR Test Realm, so a player would need to level from 1 to 60 AND get geared just to test high level content? Oh and they need a bunch of their friends to do the same so they can test a new raid. It's really no wonder why all the new content gets put live in a severely buggy state. Nobody is going to bother to jump through hoops just to test EA's crap. You also need to be a subscriber to even create a new character on the Test Realm. No brainer why the test realm is always "dead".
Mind providing a link to these "improved graphics" coming out? 1.2 was supposed to have better graphics .. so was 1.3 .. did they? nope .. same low framerates compared to other games .. framerates below 20 (on a machine that gives 60 on other new games) gives me a headache. Want a nice understanding of life? Try Spirit Science: "The Human History" |

1.2 and 1.4...........I was going to come back as I am totally over wow, found gw2 boring, and this game is going f2p so i figured the pop was going to bust, but they've nerfed yet another of my toons, happens each patch it would seem. Just not interested in starting over or trying to play another class they broke wiht the nerf bat, especially give that marauders/sents are basically chuck norris if their cool downs are up, and they get noihing. Ahh well, i am in the familiar place of wating for another mmorpg to release that I want to play, sadly nothing of note is in the works any time soon, at least from my perspective.

Even with 1.4.. it is still a 2 train ride.. One on the republic side, one on the sith side.. Once you ride each of those trains, done, game over.. After Rift and TOR, I was almost burned out on MMO's.. at least SUBSCRIPTION based ones.. It just isn't worth it..

Originally posted by Rydeson That's one of the big things TOR has going for it IMO, leveling alts. I mean, in WoW (using it as an example since that's how most MMO's work now) you take pretty much the same leveling process with each class with 1 or 2 zone choices for that level bracket. But your Paladin, your Rogue, your Warrior, they all go through the same stuff. In TOR you go through the same zones, yea, but at least you do different stories for every class and can skip a lot of the planet quests you've done on other characters of that faction. You can skip most if you level 1 character to max and use your Legacy to buy XP perks for your alts and make most of the content on your alts unique. |

Damage has been done, game is too limited in every fashion of a MMO. Was really hoping this game would be more than it was, i had such high hopes. SWTOR had some good quests and i liked the planets/graphics, but dont think any patch/update will undo what has been done already :(

Originally posted by Ahnog When are they planning to add some thrills and excitement? Any date yet? How is it possible to make a game based on Star Wars that is just so... colourless and boring? I hope to play it again at some point when they defibrilate the game to get a pulse going. |

content isn't the issue IMO, it's just going to be the same old it has been so no thank you. They would have to make a whole new swtor to get me back, they seem to be stubborn though.

Originally posted by Ahnog Intresting.

There isn't. The new warzone Ancient Hypergates is not in the new patch. Apparently you didn't play on the public test server. Thanks for the hype though. |
