Some great posts here,,I totally agree. Ive played swg and wow. I wish people would listen to what some wow players have to say. Especially the end-game stuff wow is on another level. The thing with wow is they have kept it pretty simple. They havent tried to create everything like swg did. If you try to go toooo big,,then everything will be half completed//buggy//bad. Keep it simple and perfect the important things. Ive said this in other posts but i think its all about the next 6months for TOR. If they dont work their butts off it will be over and too many players will leave. If too many players leave (yes including wow players) then you will have a situation like in swg where nothing was ever fixed or improved because they didnt have the money. To keep the wow players combat pve and pvp needs to be smooth.

10+ years for me. Swg and WOW mostly though. UI and graphics i give a failing grade..,,maybe 4/10. Combat is ok for me although bh has a bug right now with tracer missles. so maybe 6/10. My biggest problem with the game is that there is just so much Fluff. All the story conversations are just too tedious and its painfully obviously that this considerable amount of time could have been used in other areas. The general feel of the game is that MMO part of this was an afterthought. Maybe its a bioware thing but this feels like i should be playing it on a playstation or something. This may change with the end-game content but its not lookin good right now. and companions? Whats the point really? The only purpose that i can see is to take the game further away from the genre of MMO. Id say more players could play totally SOLO than in any other MMO to date because of companions. Grinding a proffession too difficult?, ok lets just have companions do that for ya. Really? For me its about the next 6months. If they seriously put some work into the game and make some great patches i think they could save it. If they dont listen to people that know and do nothing like swg,,it will be dead soon enough/

I agree with the poster. All the voice acting is a little much. I started out saying that i was going to follow the story but starting at about level 5 i gave up,,,now its space bar space bar. Alot of the time you know what they are about to say and you can easily guess the light/dark answer from just looking at the answers. to me it seems like all that work and money was for very little since most arent going to sit through every little conversation. If all the time and money was spent other things i think this game could have started out like a 10/10,,right now its 7/10.

im 24 bh merc and i really like how the combat feels. I think its going to be a fun class to play.

im 23 and this seems pretty reasonable rotation except i swear just using tracer missle kills mobs the faster. Seems like whenever i go to unload or rail shot it just slows things up.

for bh,,my unload shot keeps shooting until i hit another target.

Who likes them? Good things? Bad things? Mine always seems to agro everything even when i get by fine. I wonder if they are really needed,,,there must have been a good reason to make them in the first place.

im dec 4th,,,no email yet

you are so wrong here. I treat raiding in wow like anything else in real life. If i was in a bowling league//dart league whatever its an obligation because there are people counting that i show up. Doesnt matter if its in RL or in a game you can have obligations online and its not unhealthy in any way. Hell in WOW i only play the hours that i raid. So im only in game like 2 times a week for raid times. Thats it. Nobody is going to count on you in any group if you dont treat it like an obligation. Especially if your in a guild trying to get through content.

I didnt know that,hmm

they have more ranged abilities than the lightning hand thingy?

Hi, im not in game yet and trying to decide the class i want to play. My question is If I dont want to do Melee at all but i want to heal,,,is Merc bh the best option? Seems like it is but i might be missing something. Also how strong of a healer is a merc? Are HOTS used at all? Also how does merc play,,are people in groups healing and dps'ing or do you pretty much forget about dpsing in any kind of raid in a group. thanks

You had me until you said, "Drink Tea". That negates everything you tried to say.
