No new Bentley for the EA bosses this month. ;p

I wonder what he defines as high-end, I've never had any issues like he had and I would consider my rig high-end.

BW and Pandemic set aside $300 Million USD for SWTOR so they didnt need EA to launch this game, but from sources inside BW the owners of BW became rich and got top jobs at EA, and I beleive thats enough reason to sell.

You need to understand how the infrastructure behind Internet works if you are going to find who's fault it is. The simple answer tho is that there can be a broken link from you to the server, perhaps your ISP is a smaller ISP that use peering to extend their network, it could be at another small ISP's network then. So my question to you is, what ISP do you use? If you use a Tier 1 ISP you wont have any routing problems as they have several hundreds of thousands of possible routes, while small ISP's only have 2 possible routes.

Fixed in 1.2.

Better optimized code with better support for parallelism, currently it can handle 8 threads maximum. It would fix many issues, memory leak, long loading times, performance issues, amount of time needed to travel from one planet to another etcetc.

You spend too much time in the game then.

Yes they are in Raid 0 for maximum performance, changing them to using single SSD would not be an improvement for me. And I dont use a pagefile, much faster to let Windows use the RAM instead.

Is everyone really happy with the current situation in the game?

I know it's Sunday, but obviously there are some people working over at EA, so perhaps we can get a comment on this, is it in the calendar already to fix this or is on a planning stage, or have not considered it yet?

No, just no, the XP from warzones needs to stay.

Signed.

Hi, I would like to request game code optimization because there are huge flaws when it comes to crowded areas, like Ilum PvP when there is 30vs30 or more the FPS drops to rediculous levels while the graphics cards are far from being stressed. I used a GTX 295 before and got 10-20 FPS and I now use SLI GTX 680 and I still see same FPS. I had a chat with a NVidia guy at the GTX 680 launch event, and he said he had seen parts of the code for SWTOR and said it's not optimized, and it was due to BW lacks experience with MMO-coding. I can understand that it's the first MMO, but things need to improve. Then we have the loading times, wich I believe is due to Hero Engine being a singlethreaded engine, heavily modified to support 8 threads, you should instead have made it more adaptive as the hardware in the future will change to more cores running at lower frequency to save power while gaining more instructions per second at the same time. But enough of the future, it seems like the game is singlethreaded when it change between maps, I might be wrong but in that case something is not working as intended, it's not ok to have up to 30sec long loading times. Here's a link to how my system performs, it's the default performance test used. http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3032701

I might maybe not be the best to answer this since I always get the best money can buy, but you should really get the 6850 and even with the 6850 you can expect some heavy graphics latency in certain areas, like in ilum massive pvp. If you keep the 6770 you might see latency in alot more areas as from what I can see it should be around 40-50% slower on average, the higher the resolution you use the more difference there is between those two cards.

You didnt gear up hard, no one did.
