  1. There used to be a sticky thread collecting questions. It had about 2000 posts when it got unstickied, I think.
  2. You must be the only person on the server who does not enjoy Huttball. 1700000 people paying for their subscriptions, just not on your server.
  3. Imaginary Case: Preorder. Arrives with 30 days prepaid. Customer was in beta, and got a 60 days gametime card, or docked a 3 month plan. Guess what. Those people still got active accounts. (Not one of my friends started with a single month, since all of us expected the game to be at least what we tested and have been shown in the videos.) Well, We might have been warned when the EA logo appeared ...
  4. Playing in full screen windowed mode might help you. At least it avoids the loading screen on [Alt]-[Tab].
  5. There are two vendors on opposite ends of the area, one for Deluxe, and one for CE customers. Edit: The Deluxe vendor in the VIP launge sells a wristband giving access to the CE vendor. I think I saw the crystal vendor on the common people's floor sell the wristband for the VIP launge.
  6. It is totally not worth it. The additional items, you gain access to, are pretty meh. And you can gain access to the Deluxe and CE vendors buy buying ingame tags for 1000000cr each, I think.
  7. If [...], I gonna shoot you. That's what friends are good for, right? That makes Kaliyo more special and precious than any other companion so far - for me.
  8. If they cared about the ingame economy, they would have adjusted slicing in the beta, and fixed various known money exploits before going life. Now it is way to late to care about it because of the existing situation.
  9. Maybe because the people encountering the problem do not log in?
  10. What economy? Ever thought that this might be a planned effect to stop professional credit farmers?
  11. Crafting in SWG was really nice and involved. Successfull creating tailored animals for riding, combat and as pets was an art. (Who did not enjoy sneaking up on a rancor or krayt dragon of the purest breed to borrow a single drop of blood ...) I had people come to me, dish out huge amounts credits and not complain if it took 3 weeks to brew up the animal exactly to their specification. For perfect results, you needed perfect buffs, perfect tools, perfect clothes, perfect machines, perfect resources. Gathering all of these did cost a premium too, and you had to know who could supply you with them. Then we took a CU and a NGE to the knee. The crafting in Vanguard is done nicely too, along with the class and social systems. Crafting while being tired or distracted and killing yourself in the process is priceless!
  12. Actually all currently playable toons are humans with different, minor cosmetical differences. Even inter-species intercourse if happily possible.
  13. The reason behind the change: Using the same formula for each and every attribute makes things easier for devs.
  14. Trading bound crystals is not exactly easy to do.
  15. Most people leaving a MMO within their first billing period wont be back, and will hold grudges against the company for a very long time. Look at AoC, AO, DAoC, Warhammer.
  16. In beta and in the PR movies, the characters actually looked as crisp and clear as the two droids in the screenshot he responds to. This was changed as soon as most people had paid for the game.
  17. SWTOR is a story driven single-player game with co-op option where you have to dish out money if you want to play it for an hour or two in half a year's time.
  18. Check the PTS forum. The patch note for next week's patch are up.
  19. If they use the same curve for surge as for the other stats, it is a boost until about 400 surge, and a considerable boost with less surge. It is a very slight reduction in effect from around 500 surge. But without max level chars on the PTS, and no useful tools like combat logs, all discussion is moot.
  20. As with making love, sometimes it depends on how it is done, not that it is done.
  21. Imagine your preferred bakery changes the recipie of your preferred bread and adds something that makes you sick. You can test and repeat the test and reach the result of being sick after eating that bread 100%. Not a problem of the bakery when a percentage of their customers show those symptoms.
  22. Those flashes don't happen at the same time, every 1.5 seconds on the border of the screen. those usually happen in the center of the screen, right where most people are looking at. They don't cause the brain to tell the eyes to look left, right and bottom at the very same moment every 1.5 seconds.
