Sure, why not. Looking at the Star Wars wiki, I was surprised by how many color crystals there are. Granted, a majority of them are just different shades of the same color, but there are some unique ones I wouldn't mind trying to get (translation: Fail miserably trying to get it).

Of course! BUY 2 Play! Thanks =) I plan on playing Guild Wars 2 when it comes out. I had a blast during the Beta events but I'm gonna split my free time with both that game and SWTOR.

*Raises hand* What's B2P? I've been trying to find a word that fits for the B but I can't come up with anything.

Hm, I know this would be impossible but, how about some dynamic quests? I've spent the past 2 months (or 3, not sure. I'm not great with the passage of time) playing the Guild Wars 2 open beta and I like how dynamic most of the quests are. Now, I know that would be kind of impossible what with how all the instancing works for most quests, but I still think it would be cool. Imagine you're on your way to your class quest/story/mission, you turn a corner and a quest gets added to the upper right of your screen. You decide to check it out and when you arrive at the area you see about 15 other players doing the same quest, so you help out, get XP and you had fun. No load times, no adding people to your party, just straight up working together. You can ignore it if you want as well since it'll automatically remove itself when you're far enough away. I guess for something like this to work they'd have to make the game less instanced and if they were to even try this idea out they would probably have to create new planets to test it out on. But yeah, I think this would make leveling a little more fun. Plus, if Final Fantasy 14 is (apparently) going to survive then this game has to as well since it's better. (I'm currently playing that as well and that's how I feel.

Has anyone ever run into a glitch with the mission log where it won't get off of your screen? A few minutes ago I joined another player for "Trouble in deed" and things were going fine. I noticed that I wasn't tracking that mission so I decided to track it after we finished off some droids. When I did that the mission log became stuck on screen. I've never had this happen to me before so I wanted to know if anyone experienced anything like this. I couldn't exit out of it and pressing the ESC key just opened up the quit game, log out, preferences etc. menu.

So, how does a PVP server work? I've played a few MMOs but I've stayed away from PVP servers. Is it anything goes and even people in your faction can kill you, or is it a faction vs. faction thing, unless someone requests a duel? Also, there are safe zones right? Like, you'd have to be out on the field to be in real danger of someone ganking you. Like I said, I've always stayed away from PVP servers but I feel that I should at least try it out once.

Fatman's a PVP server, right? How's the Republic/Empire balance? I'm thinking of rolling a Republic player on a PVP server, I just don't want to choose one and find out that I'm outnumbered.

This might just be me whining, but one thing I don't like about the game are the bonus series. Or rather, the game keeping me on a planet for far too long in general. Your in the starting area for a decent amount of time and I feel your on the capital planet for not too long. Nothing crazy long or anything, but long enough to where you're not tired of the planet. But when you get to the other planets after that, they keep you there for what seems like forever. Nothing can be done about that, but that's one reason I took a 4 to 6 month break from the game. Balmorra, Tatooine and Taris are prime examples of this for me. I know I stayed on Alderaan for far too long, but I can't come to hate that planet for some reason. I guess it might be the music.

*Raises hand* I have a question! I'm still kind of new to the whole MMO thing. What's Dual Spec? Is that like, the ability to use two classes or 2 advance classes? Or is it like 2 different spec trees?

I didn't even click on this thread. I saw the title and went to start my client. Why? ;_; *Falls onto his back and flops around* Why do you hurt me?!

I made my first Empire character, a Sith Assassin, and I love the fact that even though I'm going for a light side Sith, all my light side responses still make me out to be a jerk lol

My god's better than your god because my god eats Skittles. Praise the rainbow! Also, wow, I didn't realize this kind of thing has been going on for a while. That story about the Titanium was nuts!

Anyone have problems with people randomly inviting you into parties? Now, by problems, I don't mean, "Leave me alone, I don't want to play with you or anyone!" I mean more along the lines of, "Okay, you invited me to your party. So, what do you need help with or what do you want to do? Hello? Helloooooo?" I've had 2 instances of this happening in the past 2 days. I usually play Republic, so after getting my Vanguard to Hoth and my Sage off of Balmorra (I hate you so much!) I decided to make a Sentinel. After I did that and was on my way off of Coruscant I decided to finish off the Heroics I had. I solo'd the Heroic 2+ ones (Republic's Most Wanted and Face Merchants. I was overleveled so this isn't me bragging lol) and joined 2 other people for Enemies of the Republic. All I had to do was finish Trouble in deed and then I'd be off to Ord Mantell. I waited across from the Heroic area and was waiting for people to start asking for parties for it when I got a random invite from another Sentinel. I never decline an invite since I like playing with other people, so I accepted. When I did that she (it was a female character so I'll refer to this person as a she. It makes typing this a little easier) ran to the front of the Trouble in deed starting area...door thing. I assumed she was waiting for 2 more people to join us. NOPE! She ran straight inside. My reaction, didn't type this, was, "Woah, wait, what?! This is a Heroic 4+ and we're kind of low level for a 2 man party. Are you...-sure, why not? I'll do something crazy." So, I followed and we got destroyed a couple of times. I decided to ask for 2 more people to help while she went back inside time and time again and did...whatever it was she was doing in there. After about a minute another Sentinel came and joined our party but, you know, no heals. We pretty much hit a wall and died a bunch. The Sentinel who joined us more than likely got tired of it and quit the group. I too got tired of it and quit the group as well as logged off. During this entire time the player who invited us said nothing. Well, she did say "BRT" when she respawned at the medic droid station, but other than that, nothing. The next day (today) I decided to make my first Empire character, a Sith Assassin because I liked Kira's animation with her double bladed lightsaber so I wanted to try it out. When I got to Dromund Kaas I took up a quest about rebelling slaves and something about a statue. During a cutscene for my class quest I received a random group invite from a player who was spamming "help" in the chat. I walked up to him and asked what he needed help with. He said, "Follow me" while randomly inviting other players to the group (many declined and only one other person accepted). He led us down to a Heroic area (That I didn't have yet) and just ran off in a direction. I had no idea what our objectives were and if it weren't for the other 2 groups down there I would've died more times than I did. Again, this person barely talked. All he said was "help" when he as defeated and "follow me" which was followed by him standing in one place for a few minutes. The other player in our group got fed up and just went off to do his or her own quest. I decided to stay a while longer and see if he'll say something. Once again, he said "Follow me" and headed towards the lift in the area that put you back into the normal zone. He stood in front of it so I assumed we were leaving the area so I hopped on. He didn't. He just stood there. I waited for him for a good 4 minutes, but then he hopped on the lift, went up and then back down it. My reaction was, once again, in my head, "F this", and left the group. Has anyone had experiences like this with random invites? I mean, when you randomly invite people you should at least tell them what the game plan is, right? Or, I don't know, say something that would hint at it. In both instances I tried to talk to them but got no responses (except for the "help" and "follow me" guy). I have to be honest, I feel really bad for just leaving those groups. I have a lot of patience and can put up with a lot, but if you're just going to randomly invite people, say nothing and then go off and get us killed countless times why would I stick around? I apologize for the wall of text, it's just kind of frustrating.
