  1. It's well and good saying "get a guild" but I went that route, found a guild of people that shared a similar playstyle and mentality that I did but other than having a green chat channel I really didn't see the benefit during my levelling process. Due to how the game separates everyone I think I maybe only ever 'saw' 6 of my group mates characters and that was on a day a few of us got together to do a few flashpoints. People in MMO's just don't seem willing to speak anymore, even in the guild I was in (I've since left) you'd usually see the same names speaking while everyone else was busy doing their own thing. It just feels like community in MMO's is on the decline in general and TOR does nothing to help it along. In fact, you could argue that TOR goes on to promote solo gameplay.
  2. To me, TOR is kind of like public transport, you're all using it for the same reason but no one is talking to one another - and when that one guy does start talking to you, you move away from him. TOR makes me feel like that one guy.
  3. Actually raises a really good question... If you assign a legacy name, then delete the character, does the legacy name persist? Taken out of the context of game mechanics, the 'Skywalker' legacy would continue to exist after the death of Anakin and Luke due to the fact that they have children/siblings. So would that mean you have to also delete all of your alts that the name is assigned to as well?
  4. I haven't noticed any difference in using an SSD to run the game. Like someone stated before me, the left part of the bar loads instantly - then there's a delay in which seems like the game is communicating with the server and then the rest loads probably at the same speed as a standard HDD.
  5. No you didn't, silly: Anyway, what's this game you worked on? Sounds mighty interesting.
  6. Really? So you know the statement about all the devs playing the game, what if their main is an Imperial? That could be translated as favouring the Imperial side. Would that then lead to firing? That's an absurd thing to say.
  7. I wasn't worried until I watched the "Coming up in SWTOR" video where it clearly states that they've been working on 'Rise of the Rakghouls' for a year. A year for what is effectively just a new dungeon?
  8. Why does my character have feet if I can't make him wriggle his toes? *** BIOWARE?
  9. This was a particular highlight for me.
  10. I think if 'small' races are introduced the likely option would be along the lines of Jawas and Ewoks. As long as I get to be a Wookiee at some point I don't mind!
  11. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't recall much of Han Solo's time within the movies being spent smuggling things.
  12. I've also run into the bug where my quest log has said I've got 26 or 27 quests to do out of a total of 25. That's confused me more than once but if you have a full quest log of 25 quests it seems it still logs the bonus quests.
  13. I wouldn't mind a more refined version of the LFG system that they currently have, some way of adding yourself to a pool of players that are LFG for a specific quest and/or instance and an easy way to find said players. I want to be able to load up the LFG pane, filter the current LFG players by their role, see what they're looking to do and have a little button that begins a whisper message so I can ask if they want to do it at that precise moment. What I don't want is something that completely removes the need of conversation. I don't want to be automatically thrown into a group with people that don't even have the decency to say hello. A group in which the other players don't even refer to you as your character name but as your class, I've had scenarios where I've just been called "Druid" or "Healer" and that's not fun for anybody.
  14. James: "We're implementing UI customisation" Community: "YES! They're letting us make mods!" Community Support: "That's not what we meant." Community: "OMG JAMES LIED TO US! FEED HIS CHILDREN TO THE SARLACC!" Because 9 times out of 10, that level of misinterpretation is exactly what happens.
  15. After all the complaining on the forums I think he had every right to look uncomfortable and you would too knowing that one wrong word, one slight stutter or one misinterpretation from the community will result in people practically calling for your head.
  16. Nope, my card was definitely charged today: 2012/01/19 8:17 AM OPEN - - £ 8.99 543212997 But after reading the email regarding the Founders title it states that the medals will be received within 7 days. Source: http://www.swtor.com/info/founders?sourceid=eag3396
  17. I believe it works like this: The app on your phone is independent to the app on your iPad. Imagine them as two separate physical security tokens. What you're trying to do is set up two security tokens to work with one account which can't happen for security reasons.
  18. The title has been in the game for some time, I believe it was found in the game files by someone over at Darth Hater - obviously it just hasn't been 'active'. I don't see the problem here, many games offer bonus' for people that were around when the game launched.
  19. What I often wonder when reading these forums is what mysterious, unmentionable game is everyone comparing SWTOR to that makes it so bad in contrast? What game has launched with zero hiccups, has had no bugs, no faction imbalances and nothing that needed to be hot-fixed because I'll level with you, I'm old. I've been playing MMO's since UO and Meridian and MUDs before that but this magical perfect game still eludes me. Furthermore, this bug-less, finely crafted and beautiful game that everyone but me seems to have been playing... why are people posting on these forums and not playing it? Could it potentially be because it doesn't exist?
  20. Not to poke fault in your post but the title is "A few fixes that could potentially save SWTOR" yet all you have seemed to do is create a list of issues you're experiencing without much mention of ways you'd like to see them fixed. I clicked on this topic expecting to read some form of brainstorming or a list of creative ideas and discussion on ways Bioware could possibly implement fixes for some of the issues many of the players are experiencing. Suffice to say, that unfortunately wasn't the case.
  21. As a roleplayer, you spend most of your time in a cantina on Mos Eisley - a wretched hive of scum and villainy so dastardly that only the brave or the stupid dare drink there. However, should you be looking to make (or lose) a few credits on the pazaak table, hire a thug or three to see to that Twi'lek that has taken a liking to hanging around your wife when you're out on the moisture farms it's the place to go. Just be mindful though, you don't want to bump into an Aqualish Pirate that doesn't like you.
  22. You do realise that Mythic Entertainment, the company which you quite clearly state make "Terrible" PVP are also the company that alongside EA developed DAOC - a game which you then go on to praise for it's PVP experience? Just saying
