  1. Since there seems to be no hardware commonality with the people having problems, and other people with the same or similar hardware don't have the problems it indicates the problem isn't the hardware. But it also indicates the problem isn't with the engine in and of itself.

     

    I'd be curious if those encountering problems are on the same server, or same geographic area? Maybe one of the SWTOR datacenters is having problems and the other isn't. Perhaps (most likely imho) some of the databases are misbehaving (compared to others). Since opening up the inventory or character screen likely performs a not insignificant query. I wonder if when flagged for pvp swtor code doesn't perform different DB calls than when not.

     

    Also one has to realize how differen the underlying architecture of an MMO is than a non MMO. Even multiplayer PVP games are architected vastly different than an MMO so you can't really compare performance between the two. (Very different network and database setups for example).

     

    There is also a frighteningly large amount of people who don't seem to understand the difference between lag and latency. (and not just graphics or network).

  2. The grey traditional top is a reward for the Balmora Heroic 2+ quest "Toxic Bombs" (not sure if it's the related bonus quest or the heroic itself)

     

    The purplish set is from Hammer Station drops. (but f- me it took forever to finally get my set farming HS)

  3. I guess I'm just getting old or something, but i never understood the obsession with "dual-speccing".

     

    What is the point of a game where your choices don't matter? Why not just have everyone be the same and choose to be a Healer/Tank/DPS/Control whenever they please? Why do players expect to be perfectly specced/geared for any and all situations?

  4. Because I like to make men who aren't comfortable with themselves uncomfortable.

     

     

    Is that what you want to hear? Come on, why do you even care? It's pixels on a screen in a fantasy game.

     

    Why does no one ask about people who aren't really force sensatives playing jedi? Or *gasp* someone on vent who's playing a twi'lek admitted they don't have lekku in real life!

  5.  

    Then LATER I discover that there are no freaking same gender romance options in Mass Effect 2 either, so not only do I get ***** by a girl, I don't have the option of trying again and getting it right.

     

     

     

    There are indded Same sex romance options in ME2. They're just F-F, no M-M.

     

    As for trying again.. you do know ME2 is a single player game? You can save at almost any point you'd like and load that save and try somethign different.

  6. I find this hard to believe, considering the presence of Pazaak in the original KOTOR games, which also share a T rating with SWTOR.

     

    KOTOR was a single player game. Very different interpretatiosn of the law apply. Although I think those concerns are waaay overblown they are there.

  7. I just don't get how people can have no problems with this fight. (I don't think I suck that badly.) I did it a week or two ago and wiped at least 10 times. (ended up broke from reparing.)

     

    I ended up getting a mate several levels higher than me (and I was already 2 levels higher than the quest level) and together we managed it.

    If you really want to play an underplayed class I'd still recommend Scoundrel. For some odd reason people dont give a damn how good the class is (and good it is) they won't play it...

    Scoundrel is indeed good mechanic wise, however it doesn't feel very epic. It's hard to explain, but the animations just make the character feel weaker than it is.

  9. Question: how can I get a friend to help on this bugged quest since they can't enter my ship and it's not on a "planet"?

     

    I invited someone to group, they went to their ship. They didn't see Artis (?) as a destination, until i went back through the hangar to my ship, as soon as that happened they had Artis (?) on their glaxy map.
