I have to say I am impressed at the speed Bioware has moved on the slicing issue. It is now obvious that the Devs did not intend for slicing to be as powerful as it was. As a slicer myself, I am sad to see it go. I trust the Devs have a different direction for the economy and slicing in mind. Since the game is rock solid, I am not going to complain too much about missiing this in beta.

I have been in the queue for 40 mins and I still have 425 players in front of me. Pretty ridiculous. I was thinking about doing the 6-month prepay, but due to the insane queues, I will definitely go month-to-month going forward.

MAC works just fine for this game. I am using 2011 iMac with the i5 core. The lowest model sold. Using bootcamp with Windows 7, I am running 1920x1080 @ max settings. smooth as butter.
