The probelm with everyone's negative reception of ths fashion idea is that Fashion, regardless of the era, always comes back around again and again. There is noting ridiculous about having these costumes in game for several reasons. 1) It pays homage to Star Wars through player creativity, 2) There are RP Servers for people who want to be puritanical about their game play, and 3) There is a a high enough demand for it that paying customers should get what they ask for. If you don't like it, then dont buy it or wear it. Hell, dont even associate with those people who do. Problem solved. And finally, they have already added the neccessary items to make a reasonable representation of Ventress; both in clothing (Armor) and The Rattakki Race. Both very intentional on the part of the Devs.

I'm a 20 veteran and renowned computer tech in my field. I build gaming systems for a variety of gaming needs as a professional hobby without any form of complaint from my customers. If you are having persistent FPS issues with this particular game, then you likely have any number of common system configuration issues or your systems is so old, you need to finally upgrade. I play this game on max settings on an old Alienware M17-R1, 4GB DDR2, 2.8 GHz Core 2 Duo, ATI HD 3870 w/512 MB and I have zero issues with frame rate. Server lag is the only issue I face and even then it is barely worth compliant. So what is it you are actually asking for? Dumbing the game down to meet the needs of archaic or legacy computers?

The New Jedi Order Series. Here is alink to a source of all the books I beleive you find reference to Skywalker charactor development between about 1998 and 2003 http://www.theforce.net/books/unjoh/database/Booklist.html

Bane would crush Windu like a grape with shear, brute power of the force. Not to mention his armor takes windus only real advantage away. His armor is near impervious to sabers and energy weapons alltogether.

Yes they do go into more detail. But short of giving plot away, answering either of your questions might have that effect. Live with it and play the story arc. You shouldnt be dissapointed depending on your class.

Hes a ***** at times. Throw Kira on him with her armor pent turned on, jump on him and keep him as interrupted as you can. Once you have aggro on him, use your interrupts like they are you only attck and keep him off of Kira. And do not take him on if he is one level obive you or more. You should be at his level or one higher to make it easy.

Now whiny is definately NOT the word I would use. But he is scripted to be a Jedi. a solid, good ol farm boy, bible thumpin' Jedi. he's a goody good. A goody two shoes, an alter boy if you play him completely light side. That I can go with. But whiny... never. Whiny is Anakin in episodes two and three.

I have not once required a team for any of the solo content. Though I imagine it would make it go by a little faster. I think people just need to learn the basics of their builds. This game is only a few weeks to the general public and people are already making claims of breakage. There are some shortcomings in the build area. But you can solo all the way through this game without one single need of a group. My roomate sat behind his keyboard for about two weeks and leveled his toon to 50 and not once complained. He said it was pretty easy actually. And I watched him play alot so I am inclined to agree. Now I am 40 as I dont have the time to play that many hours, but I have to agree from experience now that I have no issues at all. I just play until I die and then reevaluate that fight, adjust and rince and repeat. I have yet to skip a class or world story on any planet I have visited. So that must tell you that it can be done.

Just as a matter of fact. I had no issue with the Sand Demon. He went down while I had about 25% health left to play with. I actually found her too easy for what she was supposed to be.

What I can glean from what you just typed there my friend, I am guessing you really do not have a full grasp of the mechanics of this build. Where I do agree the cooldowns are too high on almost every key ability we need as tanks and for taking down solo bosses+mobs. I have not once in the level 40 range of content met with a solo boss I could not negotiate at my level or in some cases 1 above. I do find myself having to manage aggro quite a bit on mobs that are spread out, especially those boogars who heal themsleves and their buddies and maintain distance between one another by design. However, I do not have any issue with the degree to which my healer can burst and mainatain heals on me in any circumstance. I think the key is maintaining your healer's equipment. Mine is sporting all oranges and I make certain to update his slots at every level. Past level 40 this should not be an issue financially. As far as doing damage against strong and elite mobs, I am not having an issue there either. Obviously I don't do the damage of a DPS build, but then again I am not suppossed to. I am a tank build. I come to accept that I do less damage than my DPS counterpart. If I wanted to do DPS I'de roll DPS. So with the Tank build we have to think a little more and employ a little faster button and mouse pushing, take care in our key layouts and key binds, and learn to manage our CCs a little better. In the end a tank should have to perform a slow burn on an intended target or mobs. Hopefiully, Bioware will address the armor deficiency they say they are aware of and while they are at it they will hopefully address the cooldown issues so may are complaining about.

The only part that really need be "orange" as you put it is "You were never intended to make money running missions." I was able to glean, from mature reading, this to be a matter of opinion and one of good base and sound reasoning. If a chicken walks in front of you, do you require a "orange post" to tell you its a chicken? Its a good post even though some if it may lack facts from the Devs perspective. But economy is important in a game which employs that sort of mechanic. So I would like to hear a real Dev response to this post as I beleive it deserves one.

Actually as of now, Balmorra has a Customize Vendor located near the exit of the Bug Town Base. The vendor is a large twiliek male.

Oh I infact agree that RP is probably more compelling and immersive on a PvP server. In W... [insert game name here] I made a practice of leveling a toon on a PvE server to endgame and then paid for transfer to a PvP server once I played through the story driven solo content. Not all my toons. Just the one I intended to PvP with. However those days are probably over and that was a while ago. Atleast for now and with this game I am enjoyng the storyline for each class before I consider rolling a toon on a PvP server. Maybe once I retire I will put a little more effort into PvP. But I have to admit I respect and enjoy your rational on the subject

I don't dissagree with you on any particular point. However, if you read the general banter out there, IGN nad MMOROPG.com along with a host of others, they reveal that PvP makes up about 20%-30% of the MMO population. Not in every game ofcourse, but the large majority. Personally if I have a desire to PvP, it is long after I have reached end game with my toons and not before. But I am also far too... matured in years... to dedicate a large portion of my time to a game. My time is far to important to me outside of a game. Sleep as an example is a treasured asset in my life. But I do not begrudge anyone their form of happiness in a game like this. To each thier own and more power to them, as long as it doesn't affect my enjoyment of the game.

They were shut down due to lack of player base on those servers and a resounding hatred for tortage brutality. PvP only server are proving less and less successful.

Here it goes again... the "carebear" comment. This is where I do get ticked. Some jackarse who doesn't amount to anything in real life decides to call names at people who want to enjoy their gaming experience without PvP. You need to check your attitude at the door friend. If you wouldn't say it to someone's face then don't say it at all. And I can tell you with some certainly, you would not call me a carebear to may face. You would definately not like the result of your psuedo, keyboard driven bravery were we in the same room. Take a seat youngling. Real men are talking here.

I laugh whenever I see the word "realisim" associated with a game environemnt about a fictional universe and technology that will never be real in our world. Now I am not bagging on any particular ost by any anyone on this forum. I am just pointing out that there is too much emphasis on "realism" in MMOs, which to me actually ruins the purpose I play a game like this; to escape reality. Reality stinks alot of the time (most of the time), especially after a long day of back-breaking work, filled people who wouldn't know a rational thought if it slapped them in the face. If people want realism in a game, then I might suggest the Devs include shaving and toilet breaks to the long list of player abilities. Let's see how Sith Moronous or Jedi Lollypop like it when they have to stop and drop a duece between missions. Or how about playing their toon so long that they start experiecning random damage and defense penalties due to bad knees or heart disease. Reality in a game is like... well... I really dont know what.... absurd? unreasonable? self defeating? take your pick... Oh how about "impossible"... thats a good word for it.

Bottom line is this: Each individual is just that; an individual. And as such, each person has their own idea of what roleplaying is and what it involves. In otherwords, it is purely subjective. That being said, this is where like minded people joining together to roleplay in a mutually appealing manner comes into play. Whether it be a PvP or PvE server matters not. What matters is that groups can immerse themselves in a manner suitable for their particular group mindset. This is little different than real life group dynamics. We don't tend to gravitate toward people who are so far detatched fom our particular way of thinking as that would untimately conflict with our base values. In a game environment, we tend to gravitate toward people who share some mutual sense of propriety in the game and in play style. Personally I do not play on a PvP server as it tends to interrupt my enjoyment of the storyline. I also find myself getting angry at the level of, what I perceive as, pure grieving on the part of many PvPers on PvP severs. Not all; but a great many so say the least. Nevertheless, if I feel angry when playing a game meant to entertain me, then I don't waste my time with it. In the case of PvP, I have an option to eliminate a source of anger all-together by playing on a PvE server. Therefore I do not give my time to PvP on my story driven toon on the PvE server and roleplay my Jedi with great depth the same as I play my sith with the same dedication to the lore. But I still roleplay my toon and like to associate with people who will keep to the same level of interest in maintaining lore as I enjoy. But on on a PvE server.

You go ahead and don't activate that code. That'll show 'em! Ya know, since they already have your money for the game purchase and all. You are my kind of rebel. You have inspired me to riot. Hell no! we won't go.... oh.. thats the wrong chant. Oh well, I guess I will just deal with it until level 50 in say about two weeks.

It will happen. Day two into live and patience is already running thin with alot of peeps. I am certain it will happen soon enough or we are all just missing the level 27 I have seen on The Harbringer with a hood down. Didn't take a screenie of it as I had little concern other than to say "hey that looks cool." But hey! I am sporting a hood and robes and can deal with that. Its still canon enough. But what is up with the pants? They are all tight. with them being so skin tight, the pants I am wearing now does compliment the robes somewhat... but their attempt to make it look like the legs are leather rapped, makes it look more like I am wearing a garder belt on a male toon. Talk about not finishing your fries.
