[Multiplayer Space Combat Update?]

This got me thinking.. if you have another player on your ship and do a mission, what do they see? The ship just sitting there? I assume that's the case.

[..So I just got this game]

Just make sure to avoid general discussion.. it will taint your fun

[swtor has less servers than rift!]

They are not baseless. Its not opinion its taking the data that is available and looking at the entire picture to come to a conclusion.

 

Just because you dont like the data that has been figured out you still cant say its just opinion.

 

Just looking at population of servers there were a ton more people playing the game back in jan than there are now. There were more full servers back then than there are now and back then they had alot of very heavy,heavy and standard servers.

 

The data that has "been figured out" doesn't allow for more then guesses.

[Thoughts on GameSpy's Article on SWTOR]

Dynamic events were much-lauded in Rift, too. Early on, they were great. The Invasions, even better.

 

Have you been there lately?

 

This can't be stressed enough, once the newness wears off people tend to not bother.. to be fair, they had to scale back on things and what they had planned because the engine couldn't cope.

[Grand Master Zym server]

Everyone probably transfered off, I'm afraid you'll have to do the same.

[swtor has less servers than rift!]

As someone that also play Rift I have to say BS.

[Unusual egg help plz! :)]

forgive me, what does ctrl + u do?

 

Reloads the ui

[Make companion crew more alive]

It's great that they do actually look like they're working when they are crafting for you on the ship, but then why are they still hanging around when I sent them on a mission?

 

Hmm.. I seem to remember them actually bug off when sent on a mission, was this changed at some time or am I just getting senile?

[Beware of fake email]

I usually create a new email for each game, something like "fvffd12#SwD@whatever.com", then I never use it for anything else. Strangely enough after some time I often end up getting those emails anyway

[How many people have rolled an alt on the oppo faction for the HK?]

I can't really be bothered rolling one of each advanced class so I'm satisfied with one of each class on the same server, I just choose the advanced class that intrests me the most.. anyway, I'm ready for HK.

[40 minute queue for Tomb of Freedon Nadd]

I saw that the Red Eclipse was full now too.. no queue yet though, not that I would mind much.. it's better this way.

[Do we now have channels on destination servers?]

Tomb of freedom nadd is now very heavy, but only 42 people in republic fleet whereas yesterday was "heavy" with 200 people on fleet.

 

i wonder if there are channels now ?

 

Open up your map and look in the lower right corner, under where it saya "world".. there should be a dropdown there to switch between instances...

[SWTOR "looking at free-to-play"?]

Seems it's pretty much been confirmed by the EA boss it's going f2p, just a question of when.

 

Massively News Post

 

Ah, well.. guess that's it then. I'm sure that statement will make them lose more subs then anything else they've done (or not done) so far

[SWTOR "looking at free-to-play"?]

Imo Rift is a well made game run by a good company and good people that bust their butts to make that game great they also listen to and communicate with their player base.

 

I have to agree to that one but for some reason that doesn't seem to be enough, I've been playing since the betas and I've had to move server a few times. Now my latest choice, Blightweald, is dying too. As it stands now I have a choise between two servers, one pvp the other pve.. just two.. after that I have no idea

[SWTOR "looking at free-to-play"?]

But ive been looking for an excuse to go back to Rift, this game failing and going f2p would do it.

 

I keep seeing this.. a shame that Rift is way worse off then this game is atm though.

[SWTOR "looking at free-to-play"?]

They've dropped that many subscribers since this article? Why would you not count Asian subs? They are paying too right?

 

Because they don't have subs, at least not the Chineese, they pay per hour played instead.

[enemies to close to each other!]

Situational awareness.

 

This.

[SWTOR "looking at free-to-play"?]

... sheesh i may as well give up mmo's and call it quits.

 

I think I'm close to doing just that anyways.. and not only because of the direction the genre seems to be going in, I swear that the communities gets worse for every passing year as well...

[Dead Server and I'm not transfering?]

They might end up doing what Trion did with Rifts "Trial servers"... limit the server to the immediate area around Meridian (or Sanctum) and if you try to leave you get teleported back.. You might get stuck on the fleet, alone, for ever

[How much will an unusual egg sell for?]

This? Quite a few up for 30k each on The Red Eclipse..

[Confirmed: SWTOR to have micro-transactions/in-game purchases]

Confirmed? Link me a statement by EA saying so and I'll call it confirmed.. this is nothing but speculation

[do you lose mail when transferring servers?]

another issue is my whole guild left and I'm the only one, how can I get rid of being leader of this guild if I am the only one in it?

 

/gdisband

[Can't transfer!!]

/gquit doesn't work?

[Job Well done (Transfers)]

Agreed, it's nice to see more then one instance at fleet again

[What happens if you DON'T transfer?]

I heard Rift and/or WoW did something similar.

 

Trion labeled a bunch of servers "trial server" and forced people off them, in reality the trial / "free to 20" players are on the normal servers, there's no way to see the trial servers unless you still have a char on them.
