This is not a rant thread. This is simply a thread seeking observations and opinions. This thread is for Warhammer Online players. For everyone else please move along. Yes I know they are different games so move along. Do any of you former Warhammer Online players notice any similarities/mistakes between SWTOR and Warhammer Online? I believe the auction house to be a nearly identical dysfunctional copy from Warhammer online. Many of the dps classes are also glass cannons. I submit Bright Wizard and Jedi Sentinel as just 1 example. Class balance and game play mechanics are quite similar to Warhammer Online in my honest opinion. The cheesiness of the current battlegrounds in SWTOR wreak of Warhammer Online. I submit Hutt Ball as an example. Warhammer Online was at times a fun game with great potential and I played it for a good portion of its life. The only reason Warhammer Online has been slowly dying was due to the devs (Mythic) dragging their feet to repair bugs in their game. One year into Warhammer Online there were still ridiculous bugs that should have been fixed two months after release (I will not list them because if you were a Warhammer player you would know them, if you never played WAR you shouldn't be in this thread posting). They were not... SWTOR is at a critical stage in its life. These next three months will determine the entire life of this mmo. I still have faith that Bioware/Mythic may salvage this game. However, if they drag their feet with improving the flaws of this game; I fore see the same fate as Warhammer Online. Populations will swiftly dwindle, the die hards will remain and lament what could have been. This is my observation. Mmorpgs I have played: Ultima Online, Star Wars Galaxies, Asheron's Call, Everquest 1&2, WOW, Anarchy Online, EVE, DC Universe, Warhammer Online, Age of Conan, Aion, Rift, Guild Wars, Lineage 1&2, Lord of the Rings Online, D&D Online, Pirates of the Burning Sea, Star Trek Online, and some I have probably forgotten about by now. P.S. Do not attempt to flame me. I will laugh at you. This is merely an observation and is copyright to my own mind. You may disagree but I believe anyone who played WAR will probably agree that some of the things in SWTOR feel eerily similar.

Finally someone who didn't flame me for being honest I'm about the same level as you now and just rerolled. Tired of smashing my head into a wall. People say blah blah blahllistic dampers. Yeah that will reduce your damage for three attacks, after that you need to move and set back up to get them again. Which is not a very good option. If you move just for dampers you waste dps time and risk taking some nasty hits out of cover.

Sniper it is lol.

Sniper sucks... You would think for a dps class you could maybe do some damage. Ah, but you can't; every attack has a channel and everything you fight will be melee. If you like huffing gasoline, cutting yourself, or any other sick demented forms of entertainment then yes play sniper by all means.

Do you realize that one man's sarcasm is another man's troll?

OMG their gonna flame you worse than a Buddhist monk! How dare you say anything negative (true) about this game.

Do you realize a question mark (see example below) denotes a question. So I asked two questions. Question Mark: ?

Your spelling keeps me up at night. Bye* yourself.

Have another cup of tea, it's dividends. This thread is nothing but trolls..

Actually I haven't played any decent mmos since Ultima Online and I thought this was it. It's close to being as good as UO except UO had pvp.

If it's such a great game how can it EVER turn into a WOW clone? Oh no answer? gg

Satire is trolling a different demographic apparently.

To me he's a troll because he's acting like this is an amazing game. It's not and he knows it so he tries to play down all the legitimate problems to have some lulz. All while you fanbois read his wall of text. Then you lol at his post (yourself).

Don't put so much effort into your trolling. It makes you look desperate, and you are....

If stupid people is your biggest complaint about this game then I don't know what to tell you. To me the game feels like it's single player. Not many flashpoints to run not many wz to run and the game doesn't feel very immersive. Sounds like a mild inconvenience compared to the real problems with this game.

Why no day and night cycles? Why no weather? Why Lame AI? Why npc animations straight from swg (non-moving town npcs: their hand gestures and movement where they're standing in groups is very swg)? Everywhere I go it feels like a set piece with a bunch of extras. I nearly never feel like anything significant is occuring. Adding day and night and weather makes the zones less static and then it feels like a living world. Sadly it feels like a massively single player kotor to me. I try to keep playing but I just can't seem to get into it =/

If I were to make a youtube video of tor gameplay it would go like this: Five mins on a speeder riding along to the annoying hummmmmmmmmmm. One minute of turning in a quest and talking with an npc. Five more minutes of...yup speeder again hummmmmmmmmm. Thirty seconds killing a lone nerf in Alderaan. Five more minutes of speeder travel hummmmmmmm. At no point in time would you see other players in this video let alone fight another player. The End P.S. Sad but true story....

Who would want to walk when your gonna have half hour speeder rides between quests. The speeders are necessary to make it through boring empty zones with not a single player in sight.

YES, it opens up to an empty zone where you get to ride your speeder for like 7-10mins at a time traveling between quests. Once you talk to an npc for 2 minutes or less you get back on your speeder for another 5-7 minute ride. These speeder rides could have been interesting if you would ever see the opposite faction so you could kill them but this nearly never happens. Occasionally you will see a friendly player riding down the road. Sometimes I can tell that they are shocked to see me, we both stop and screenshot each other to prove to ourselves this is an mmo. Then we move on. Have fun...

Soon the messiah mail will come to us and take us to the promised game. Then our people will have a new native land. Rember remember the thread in December..

Let the Decemberist migration come to this thread then! For many days now we Decemberists have wandered the wilderness of EGA in darkness. Now we have been forced from our native thread and into this thread of heathens. LET MY PEOPLE GO!

Since this may very well be the last posts on this forum can someone post the guild website for the december guilds. Mostly looking for the <December Crew> NA site that was put up yesterday. Forgot to favorite it.

Um?

Come now, surely you wouldn't have entered the code right away. Have you seen how long those keys were!? I get a little faint thinking back to when I entered mine.

Would you please pick up a couple hundred servers are spys in Bioware need them. Take your time no hurry
