On subject. Try using torhead.com. they have 3D models of most sabers as far as I know. That way you can see what they look like. As for an ingame preview, that would definitely be nice.
No they didn't, they had however many years wow had been out when BW started development. Unless of course BW has access to a time a machine. Try looking up the company that tried to put out Duke Nukem Forever and see why it was they failed and it took another company less than a year to finally release it.
It's not needed, and when implemented in beta it bogged things down too much. So atm they are looking for a way to implement chat bubbles without a serious negative impact on game play.
If it's unacceptable then why did you agree to accept it? Not to mention after a major patch it's very common to put in much needed fixes. Usually by hotfixing but that can't always be the case.
I believe you can but you have to get them post patch 1.2 to remove the mods. If you had the armor pre 1.2 they are still stuck in. But I'm not 100% positive this is so.
After patches graphics settings have a tendency for some people to change without changing graphics setting indicators. For me one was that vsync was on, but in game it was actually off, I just clicked the vsync off then on again.
Only bad thing is the forums will be a QQ'fest friday. But other than that I'm looking forward to being able to sprint at lvl 1! unless that was ptr only then .
