hmm...this might explain some weird behavior we saw in there last week...tagging for future reference.

STO never had close to 1 million subs. If you include the lifers, I think they had about a quarter of that (250,000) at their peak.

What part of the game requires/allows 10 players? Oh wait...trolling/QQ post, guess critical thinking isn't required here...

Trust me, Mako always goes down first... Oh, wait, you meant....nvm

No, it is not. The quest you get on the orbital station on Quesh has a level requirement. That quest (to get inoculated before going down to the planet) is required to use the shuttle to go to the surface. In other words, if you are too low of a level to get the inoculation quest on the station you cannot go to the surface at all, and you cannot advance your class quest. Since Chapter finishes after Hoth, and Quesh is before Hoth, then you cannot be powerleveled thru the class quest. beyond Quesh.

Sure thing...that reminds me, I need to start charging all DPS classes to tank/heal HMs (there is a discount for guild members of course). There we have it, we pay more the the respec, YOU pay us for letting you benefit from that respec.

Ummm...I'm not seeing many people saying that. I'm seeing people saying "STO Sucks, you cannot compare that steaming pile of crap to TOR". I'm one of those saying that...

Why wouldn't I? Still the best value for my gaming dollar out there.

I might play it if I could get a White Star!

Played STO at launch, lasted less than 2 weeks. Cryptic is a niche, mmo-lite, developer at best. Since I'm not a trekkie there was no reason for me to stay around. Haven't seen anything to change that. TOR I have played from launch and play 3-4 hours nightly during the week. Much more than that on weekends. I'm still thoroughly enjoying my play time is TOR. No comparison really.

If guilds wish to require it, that is fine. People can choose to join or not join them knowing this. By the way, it should be pointed out that actual "good" guilds already have everything on Farm status now...without Recount. But then, those are good guilds.

Wow, some people are really reaching now. This would be entertaining if it wasn't so sad.

I'm not sure what you are doing, but my GTX 560 Ti's never get above ~70 C, and my CPU temps never go about ~50 C, this is after hours of playing.

Wow...and here I was going to say...Powertech. I honestly have very few complaints, and those I do have are really trivial or purely a matter of taste (I have Skadge for example, but that's a matter of taste).

Its worse with a map like Voidstar. 120 seconds is WAY too long to call the match early. Hell, 60 seconds can be too long if the team that is short people is the initial defending team.

Well, if you do not play any better than you type I think I see the problem...

Umm..yes, there is. If you let them control the middle (which has nothing at all to do with "leapers and sprinters"), then you deserve to lose. I don't care how fast they can cap, if they cannot get the reset, they lose.

Thank you for the info/clarification. I wasn't complaining so much as a little confused, but your post cleared that up.

What counts as an objective in each warzone? I took the screenshot below following a match myself and two friends entered. The match was 0-3 against our team. By doing nothing more than relaying the ball (I remained in the endzone, stealthed, while the other two ran the ball into the pit to pass), we turned that into a 5-4 victory. All 5 goals are a result of the three of us relaying the ball. I personally walked all 5 across the goal. The other two that were with me (Assault and Battery) were awarded Objective points, but I was not. So I am a little confused about how it is scored. For the record, it wasn't that big of a deal as I am capped on Valor until I level, have all the level 40 gear I could want, and have 1000 WZ commendations. I did it for fun, and because I hate losing. I am more curious about the mechanic as something seems a bit off. http://imgur.com/9CEIZ

I play Eve, but have largely ignored Dust due to the console only aspect.

Wait, isn't Dust console only?

Outraged?? Really? i could see 'upset', or 'miffed'...maybe, but outraged? Someone needs to get out more.

Seriously, I miss being able to open my character window, look at my gear and say DONE! I can now go an PvP without having to worry about needing/getting stuff....then ToA came out :/

Name one then? I have tried a good number of F2P games, they all sucked. As it is, I get enough play time out of SWTOR that my monthly sub works out to about $0.12 an hour. WELL worth the cost.

Ah, well...my first MMO was DAoC, where end game WAS PvP, though factional. They did implement a FFA PvP server but I never rolled on it. Not because I had an issue with PvP, but rather that I preferred the factional aspect of it (realm pride and all that). My second game was SWG, where there was no such thing as either PvP or PvE servers. Then WoW, where I just rolled on a PvP server without giving it any real though but never noticed any issues that bothered me all that much. Again though, WoW is factional PvP, not FFA (ignoring the STV arena).
