Imperial Fleet easily wins, their ships are larger and armed with more firepower by quantities.

This reminds me of EQ2. Took SOE about two years to implement diversity.

And I just love that art direction Blizzard took for the Warcraft franchise. Can't say the same about this Clone Wars stuff.

Most sources assume Blizzard spent 200M$ on WoW until its release in 2004. That also includes server upkeep costs and support. It is said that Bioware spent the same amount for initial development.

Smuggler. If it looks female the second option almost always is [Flirt] I'm sexy so are you.

False rumor, just ignore it.

TOR just needs the following three things: free flight non linear planets blueprints

I don't remember what has been my very first MMO, could have been UO. But what first pops to my mind is my first contact with SWG: utterly boring! I couldn't think of a game more boring than SWG at that time Logged in during beta, somewhere in the desert of Tattooine with no intention where to go, what to do or any other players around. I ran up some dune, saw a village, found some villagers not responding to my greetings, logged off and didn't log back in until some couple of years later. TOR I logged in and had fun the very first moment.

I'm 31 years old and play about 3 hours every two weeks. Free time is golden.

There is no light speed travel in Star Wars. What they have is faster than light travel. The EU knows stuff like time dilation etc. just like in our universe. What is introduced is the hyper space what makes FTL travelling possible. Don't try applying real world physics to Star Wars, they have invented an excuse already.

I don't want orbital stations in my Star Wars. I want space ports on each planet.

Scaled content is what made TES4 worse. A big part of an RPG for me is to test if I'm able to stand a fight and if not come back later with more experience and better gear. If I wanted those fights to be about how well I am able to strafe and how fast to click some dispell I'd play a FPS, not a RPG.

Hand some dev a framework, tell him it's a fork and give him three years of time: the framework will be exactly the same as it has been before. Devs are somewhat lazy; if something works it isn't touched. And this is done for good reasons. So basically what we have here is an engine three years old. But people pulled demo videos from the HeroEngine website trying to show off what SWTOR should be capable off, completely ignoring the videos show something an engine is capable of doing what has been worked on for three years. Bioware devs didn't work on the engine, they worked on the game.

Agree.

I rather have them reduce the loading times drastically. There should be no need for such a thing as a loading screen in a modern MMO. If you can't implement it yourself ask Blizzard whom to hire.

I play a Sorc because it's lots of fun shooting bolts of lightning from your arse.

I put my money on EQ2 back then. Felt like Video 2000 once again.

I would, but our admins are clever, blocking all but the standard ports

What the...

I'm insane. I prefer hunting over questing. Slaying mobs on no ends for XP and loot is fun for me.

I'd roll a Rodian Bounty Hunter the second they're available.

Hardcore players are just playing the game. Those ranting about the game are the newbies thinking they're hardcore just because they can reach the level cap within a couple of days and know how to interprete combat logs.

Maybe VO just isn't for me then. I don't know any of the two actors you've mentioned, nor a series/movie/whatever named Psych.

Seems like we need to wait for JTL to be released.

I've read those "big names"; don't know them. I'm German, I have no clue what your actors sound like, we have voice actors. And those haven't been hired for the German client.
