1: No as it would only be abused. If someone is AFK it can be for a legitimate reason. * Answering the door / phone * putting the kids to bed / making bottles (and a multitude of other reasons to do with having kids) 2: Again, no. As people can argue that their connection could drop (like mine has) during a warzone. I did not choose to leave i timed out. So why should i be punished for a connection drop? 3: Have to agree with the other posters about this. If swearing bothers you so much that you feel the need to report someone for saying some words you don't like well that's just childish as well. This is how adults speak whether you like it or not. But regardless just right click & ignore them. or close the chat window. or better yet dont let a few words bother you. They certainly don't bother me.

I Signed up for 6 months as this is my 1st MMO and it will take me time to get used to all the lingo, stats and wealth of info that a lot of people fly through easier than i do. But i do see the OP's points for 1,2,3. Especially the lifeless worlds part. Everyone is just stood in a specific area with the odd few that wander in a set pattern. Maybe we have been spoiled lately but i look at skyrim's locations and then at ToR's and it's like night and day: One is vibrant, full of life with the smallest things able to be manipulated. made or destroyed at whim. The other is a static dull world that while having very nice scenery is just a background that is spoiled by the inactivity of it's inhabitants. Still. I am in this for 6 months and I do enjoy playing the game despite these down sides but i hope they can do something to liven it up. As by the time my 6 months is up if theres nothing more to keep me here other than pvp battles then ill be bidding ToR goodbye as I don' think there will be any reason to stay subbed at that point.

One thing i really would like to see implemented is for the in-game map. I would like to be able to place map markers near places of interest. It could be usefull to be able to add txt to it as well. for example the RTS game Supreme Commander had the ability to make a map marker and give it a name / description. So for ToR you could have the co-ordinates of things like holocrons or world bosses or loot or anything else marked out and shared among your group. Would make things much easier to find rather than X??? Y??? Z???

Do...not...want..... On a serious note. NO! is the word. Just no....

lol it would seem nice if you could use your abilities while its bugged out like that can get the odd shot off but its funny when its in cover around 40 secs or so in.

Had this Happen earlier today. has anyone seen this before? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59Yu9bT0fFs&feature=player_embedded sorry for the video quality. This is the first tme i have seen this since rolling an agent as my 1st character so to see this now is a little odd.

lvl 47 sniper here and have to admit though the damage is good when you have a guardian of lvl 40 (as happened around 20 mins ago) on top of you cover pulse will not work. neither didambush propell him away....so hes in my face and i cant do nothing about it. 7 levels above him and yet i get pwnd mostly because the abiliies i have didnt do their jobs. (cover pulse & Ambush) the rest im ok with. The cover system is still a pain though. Why would i want to roll into cover thats around 20 feet away while i am trying to get a decent shot off while retreating... anway rant over. overall i like the sniper class but it feels totdally underpowered for when an enemy is directly in front of you and the likes of tried debilitate, flashbang, coverpulse, ambush, leg shor ect dont help at all. We need something else and i dont know what

/signed. Hopefully the upcoming customizable UI would mean either adding a 3rd tier or extending the ones we already have. either way works for me

haha yeah it's an instant classic /facepalm @ OP

Hypothetical situation: Obi Wan team vs Darth Maul team. Both light and dark in a face off. Obi loses his saber and to avoid being butcered dives for one lying on the ground. Oh no! now he's hit with a choice: Does he... FOLLOW ToR's RULE 1: It's a red saber thus restricted and he cant use it FOLLOW COMMON SENSE 2: it's just a saber so naturally it has no say in who it serves. it just works. I think we know the answer. anyway as i said it's just a tool and should be viewed as such, regardless of the user's sense of good / evil.

Personally i would like any class to use any type of armor but give them penalties. If my Jedi Shadow was to go from light armor to heavy then i should take a hit to endurance & speed. Things like that.Lost count of the amount of decent armors i have seen only to have to sell them as i cant use them. for no other reason other than light / medium / heavy

Have to agree with this. A lightsaber should be a lightsaber regardless of how good / bad the weilder is. Allignment should have no bearing on most items. Sure leave the relics as light or dark i can see the wisdom in that but general weapons and armor should have no restrictions. /signed

/signed as it is very annoying as others have said it can go to pending.

I was hoping we could have something along the lines of, say an addition to the normal upgrade slots for armor (mod enhancment ect) you may be able to add one for visual looks so you can add colour for each armor part? or even camouflage patterns to them. Or perhaps a colour slider to change individual parts colours for whatever you are wearing at the time. Also things like damage decals, scorch marks, cuts gashes rips ect as something you can add to show from your battles So in summary * Colour slidebar. - Ill wear a pink helmet if i want to * camouflage Patterns. - Nothing too fancy. Just a few like real armed forces have. * Decals for damage. - Scratches, Scorch marks, Rips & Tears, burns. Even blood You get the general idea. Thank you for your time.

I would like to see this also.

Nope not quitting either. I enjoy the game and any little bugs will get squashed along the way, just a matter of time and patience.

Thumbs up for this and any other thing we should have a preview for

I assume by pulling their weight you mean taking the heat off you with the 50's targetting them for easy killls?

Or maybe you are reading too much into it and seeing what you want to see. If you made something you are not 100% happy with would you withhold it or release it? And as for those saying "release this bit or that part" lol. Things don't work like that and you are just being selfish. In fact the majority of the posts i have read are like this: selfish rants from what appear to be children crying that they are not getting what they want when they want it. Well too bad, Deal with it. And if you want to unsub go right ahead. I will give the game time to get everything in order. However what I will not do is resort to the petty crying done throughout most of the posts in here and other threads

I for one am glad they have put the patch back if it is not ready and needs more testing. I don;t see why people have a problem with this and think there's some kind of conspiracy at work where "they are deliberatly doing this to con us out of our money" And no I am not some fanboy with a blow up doll of princess leia or something before the trolls come out. This is the first MMO i have ever played and yes there are some problems but ffs it's been out less than a month why can't people give it time to iron these out instead of coming on here and acting like a bunch of spoiled children. I never expected this community to have so many haters and those that are unsubbing or threatening to unsub are the saddest of the lot. Just give the game some time and the devs time enough to fix these teething problems to EVERYONE'S satisfaction and not your own.

She's quite a looker Face http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e362/Smokey75/swtor2011-12-2722-23-26-43-1.jpg With eyegear on. http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e362/Smokey75/swtor2011-12-2722-13-30-58.jpg

I chickened out and accepted his offer, in exchange he made me his personal killer, The Hand of Jadus did one quick "job" for him now apparently i am to take some time for R&R at the imperial fleet. Not even a paid holiday No idea what happens next.

I asked the same thing in the beta and in the screw skills screen next to each skill there is a tiny x (if i am remembering it correctly) this removes that skill.

pre-ordered, bought, paid for, redeemed the product code ect ect still nothing. 11.30.2011 Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Early Game Access: Ready to patch 11.30.2011 Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ Digital Standard Edition Pre-Order Wonder if it's cos i didnt pay for the higher price editions I guess if it doesent happen today then I and many others were ripped off a good £5 each. which is very naughty if that's the case.
