They were more fun to watch back in August when the entire DOW was having -4% / +4% days. I don't listen to economist much lately.. the more you follow the news the more you realized how wrong they usually are (that or they talk about the obvious after it happens).
Much like world PvP too if I remember tarren mill correctly. Once they tried to structure it things took a turn for the ugly and instanced (wintergrasp)
I am of the opinion the game shipped early to meet holiday sales. So yes, these features are the expected norm in any mmorpg. I am however glad to see them in the video.. means we don't have to wait past march for them to materialize in game.
Crying children still crying after getting pacifier they cried for.
The video is a nice peek at the future. And of course they are also working on the bugs.. seriously expected a PR video about bug fixes? THAT would be horrible PR.
I also have a 5870, in empty zones the performance is great, in 16 man operations I loose FPS pretty badly. Its like with wow, when all those effects go off at the same time you need a pretty good system to keep the settings at max
Thats what I do in wow, 30 days on alts inbox then return to sender and an additional 30 days in my own inbox.
In swtor mail disappears after a few days.
Unlike other games there is no loss when the auction expires.. so if there is no limit people would use the auction as a free storage.
Personally I use an alt if I hit my 50 item limit.
