IG-88 is Canon. Would like to see some of the Black Sun influence - I bet we will see in the Rebels movie

I would love that. After the fall of the Empire in Ep 6, I imagine it would leave a major gap in government. The Rebels would seek to re-establish the Republic but the power vacuum may create splinter groups to form (like The First Order). We could see a "Wild West" type of Galaxy with multiple factions vying for control, independently governed systems, and others with total anarchy. Would make for a really fun MMO setting.

Happy Birthday to you as well!

I'm on the Harbinger, both sides. Savior - Sith Warrior Saviorr - Jedi Knight But no need to send me anything!

It's my birthday today.

I was just thinking about this. A cool feature they could implement is allowing you to redo the story missions at level 55. The quests would be all scaled along with credits and gear. It would allow you to go back and replay your whole story. Replaying them without any planet quests would create a more fluid storyline for your characters. There wouldn't be a lot to gain, but it would be a neat feature that would help you refresh your memory about your character's story.

Not just SI. This picture is all over the place. I saw it a few times on the Imp Fleet

Genesis is an amazing guild that entertains both PvP and PvE elements. We are a large guild with players of all interests (casual, hardcore, pve, pvp, social, etc) and growing everyday. We ACTUALLY do see 20-30 members on every evening during the week, with a constant flow on weekends. Whether it's raiding, PvP, or just having fun, we do it all and we do it well. Come check out our website if you're interested and see for yourself.

Genesis has a focus on both PvE and PvP. We have two Ops groups running (8 man and 16 man) as well as devoted PvPers, both ranked and non ranked play. We have a large player base that entertains <50 and 50 pvp so you'll never go without a group. There are, on average 20-30 members on every evening.

Disagree entirely with the OP. The endgame is just as important as the leveling process. Some players prefer leveling content, others prefer max level content. SWTOR's leveling process is slow and too linear. Each class goes to the same planet at the same level, and then the same zones. There's no replayability in terms of the leveling content because it's the same song and dance. Yes the story differs a bit, but that's like 10% of the entire game. Endgame is no better. The raiding and PvP has grown stagnant and boring. There's nothing new and gamechanging about it. So in summation, both leveling and endgame are boring. BW needs to pick up their feet and work on making the content more dynamic.

Reminds me of hardcore Diablo 2 (shudders). Good times.

They definitely need to lower the server number. I remember reading somewhere that the hero engine can support up to a 100 000 players.. Obviously BW wouldn't go that high. But the fact that we have less than 200 servers with sub base of around 1.3 million is sad. Especially since BW could theoretically fit every single sub on 20 servers (time zones aside). All we need is around 50 servers and that would be more than enough to accommodate all players

Sniper/smuggler bubbles and amazing healers.

I don't oppose hybrid F2P/P2P games. ie: F2P up to level 20 and P2P after is a good example. It gives the player the ability to get their feet wet before diving into a new MMO. But that is the closest to F2P that I will ever go.

You're right, I went back and did a recount. WoW has 491 servers TOR has 211 http://www.warcraftrealms.com/eu_realmstats.php So I was way off base. However, that is still 40% of the servers with only 10% of it's population so there is still a lot of disparity. TOR should honestly have closer to 50 servers, not 200.

I read a lot of posts about people wanting to transfer off Fatman. "half the crowd" is just a hyberbole

Half the crowd wants server transfers off the busy servers to lighter ones, the other half wants to transfer off the light ones because they are almost dead. Has anyone even counted how many servers we have? We have close to 40% of the servers as WoW does, but with 10% of it's population. Server transfers are going to be mostly ineffective when it comes to solving the problem, if anything we are just going to be left with more dead servers. We need SERVER MERGES. BW please, transfers are not good enough, you need to merge servers and close down others. Give us Server Merges please!

The premise of Deceived was over 10 years ago since the prelude of the game. And yes I read it. If you actually follow your story in game you see that it escalates with every chapter until it finally breaks into all out war. Take 5 seconds and actually read the first paragraph of the epilogue screen when you load in if you don't believe me.

Yet another example of someone who clearly space bars through story. IF you would have actually paid attention they actually come out and say the war goes hot some time during act 3 (depending on your class), mostly around Corellia. So in case that was too much for you too read. TL:DR - War was cold, now is hot.

Guessed you missed the lore where the treaty was broken after the end of the 1st act. Or were you not paying attention to your class quests? By the end of Act 3 the factions are in open war. Why do people keep bringing up a cold war period? It was there when you start your story, but it clearly ends and the war goes hot. Read the epilogue overview on the loading screen when you first log in.

I would even take guerrilla fighting events (ie Hope trailer) at this point

Alderaan Hope trailer? Perfect example. /agree

3) Profit!
