Do you use internet other than to play SWTOR while playing? Like watch streams or youtube?
Yes but I am not playing a youtube video at the same time SWTOR is running.
-
Hmm, I don't seem to have this issue, and my PC sucks next to yours. The only place I lag really bad is fleet, when I get stuck in the full channels.
Its not lag. The game runs choppy when moving around. My fps is 50-60 but still when I climbing a hill or just running around on Tython, the game has a stutter to it. There is only like 15 people on Tython too.
-
I just resubbed after taking a break for about a year and a half. I find that the game still stutters, has hiccups when running my character around. And its not that I have a crappy PC. My specs are AMD FX 6 core 3.4ghz, HD 6870 card, 8gb ram, windows 7 ultimate. And my fps sits around 40-50 on Tython so I dont think its the graphic settings.
Is it the game engine that cant be fixed? The stuttering is annoying. Wish the game ran smooth like WoW.

no no no no planets need to be larger not smaller!!!! and if all you are doing is staying on the fleet then yea this game would be boring and not worth paying for but not to leave because of load screens and loosing immersion?? i just dont get that at all, every game has load screens. either get off the fleet and go explore and do quests or unsub and find a new game.
now for me i dont like playing this game because the class stories are boring, the side quests are boring, the planets are too small so there isnt much exploration, the planets are too linear, there isnt much you can do to make your toon look different from others. and the worst part of it is that its more like a single player game instead of an MMO
the things i do like about this game is my companion, and its pretty... but thats about it, im about to unsub because i dont see why anyone is having to pay a monthly sub to play this game.
Not just load screens, but the game doesnt run smooth like WoW. This is another deal breaker for me. And I have a high end pc.

Life sure is difficult; that 10 second wait is killer!
- you have the ability to go directly to your ship from a shuttle (saving you from having to visit the space-station while leaving a planet
- loading takes about 5 seconds (10 second wait to change planets since there are 2 loading screens)
Now if you're complaining about it not being realistic having loading screens pop up, I will have to remind you that your character is holding a lightsaber.
Its not the 10 second wait, its the fact that there is an immersion breaking loading screen there.
-
Right, it's like I said: one loading screen per planet/level. Not really that much. All other MMO's have the same for the most part.
Not really. In WoW, you can explore Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor without a loading screen. And that one screen you get when traversing from one continent to the other is not really a loading screen, takes only 3 seconds.
What I'm saying is, SWTOR should of been more seamless like WoW. Every single planet has a loading screen. That is the equivalent of every zone in WoW having a load screen at the borders lol.
-
1 loading screen per planet isn't a lot. Cool story.
1 loading screen to board ship, 1 more to get off ship. I don't like that one bit.
-
i find the planets smaller compared to swg but i do agree about the load times on the screens and it's even more of a pain when you are changing instances to join your group/ops ( that is if the ui doesn't bug out or client crashes )
It's not the load times. Its the fact that there are so many loading screens at every corner. Would of been better if we could freely roam in space and travel planet to planet with 0 loading screens.
-
When I log on, I que for a wz and play a few then log out. I never leave the fleet to quest or anything. And I really want to go out and explore but the loading screens are immersion breaking, and I think the planets are just way to big. You never see other players out there. I think maybe they should of made the planets smaller and left some room for later, make like part of the planet high lvl or something so we can come back to it I don't know.
-
Every mmo is linear
-
What about the secret space project? Do you really think they are working on a secret space project?
-
When did the graphics change? I see no difference
-
my specs
Cuisinart CPT-180
stainless housing with polished chrome and black accents
Two 6-setting browning dials
dual reheat
defrost and bagel buttons
LED indicators
4 Wide toasting slots
and I get absolutely no lag what so ever in any form
no wonder. you have 4 wide toasting slots those are usually for government security pc's. don't know how you got your hands on them.
-
My guess, the game engine is terrible? I have a high end pc and get low fps in wz's and fleet.
-
dailies suck lol. pvp wz daily is ok though. i guess as long as the daily is something you like doing, then i guess its ok. but who likes killing boring pve mobs every day, over and over lol.
-
Feel bad for those people who paid 180 for the CE. Now its basically free lol.
-
A. January
B. February
C. March
D. April
My guess is C, and yours?
-
So, anyone can download the game and play for free. What if one wants to subscribe. Do they need to buy the game and then subscribe? I hear now the game is 14.99 and the digital is 19.99?

Feel like you've exhausted the content of this game? Bored of the Black Hole, Ilum, Belsavis and operations?
Go back to the wonderfully charming planets of Tatooine, Quesh, Voss, Correllia, Hoth, Balmorra and play all the Heroic missions with lowbies or with your companions. Heroic missions are really fun, and if you're like me and you skipped a lot of them on the way up then you'll have heaps of original content to get through. It freshens the game up, allows for more interesting experiences and a greater variety of environments to explore.
Find all the Datacrons along the way! These are really fun to collect. They involve puzzles, exploration, combat and cooperation, and again you get to see loads of new places.
Please, don't sit on the fleet all day waiting for queues to pop then complain that this game is dull - do something fun!
I anticipate Bioware putting more interesting minigames and activities into the game for great experiences and community fun, but until they do, this is really good fun to do and rewarding if you help lowbies along the way too.
If you're on ToFN, then join the best community on the server: Rebel Dream!
Sounds cool. But it would be awesome if they made the general chat on fleet to be for all planets. I like to chat a lot and this is one reason why I don't like to leave the fleet. Also, so many loading screens, kinda makes me not want to go through them lol.

Between 5 and 10% better for games... So maybe not enough to justify changing MB !
Thanks for the knowledge! Nah, I have an AMD mobo. So I will have to change mobo too.
-
For gaming (and for a reasonable price) : i5 3570K (ivy bridge)
i7 3770K is better but not so much as to justify the cost when compared to the i5.
And if you have a sandy bridge MB and don't plan on changing it : i5 2500K.
Is the Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge considerably better/faster than the 2500k sandy?
-
I have a question. Is the Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge better than the Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge? I heard the Ivy was better? Out of Intel's four core cpu's. Which one is best for gaming. This is what my thread header should of been.
-
I heard it was the Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge. Is this not the case anymore? I have an AMD FX 6core but I'm now believing AMD does not make good cpu's.
-
I have a HD 6870 card with a 6 core AMD FX processor and 8 GB of DDR3 RAM and Windows 7 64bit. This game still does not run smoothly as other games can.
Game still stutters...
