Hey, bottomless pits are not so bad. Just think of all the time you'll have to think about the bottomless pit...

Game developers often use vendors to test items. It allows may players to get those items there by gaining the item(s) a wider test bed than would be possible if the item were to only be available for testing by mob or chest drops. A few times in EQ after a live update a whole bunch of Beta Vendors appeared on the live server, somebody forgot to throw the hide them switch. So until that patch goes live and you see the same thing as on the PTS, I would not worry about it. It just may be a test server thing.

No, they are capacitive keyboards. Beneath the key cap is a small plunger which rests on a plastic pedestal which compresses when the key is depressed. After a small bit of travel the plastic depresses a metallic dome changing the distance between it and an underlying metallic pad there by changing the capacitance of the circuit causing a current to be registered in the keyboard logic circuitry. Would this alone be the cause of your observed lag? No. Unless there is something wrong with the keyboard, maybe an off timed scan of the keyboard buffer. But more likely would be a keylogger...

Your Power Supply may not be up to snuff, recommend a 750W or better with isolated power for the video power cord assemblies. Something like this hec XP1080 800W from Newegg

If you have no Codex entry for a datacron then you have not found that datacron. How do you know if your missing one, there would be a break in the numbering sequence. If SWTOR spy did not exist someone would create a site like it.

I have all the datacrons except the +10; I'm bugged for this one, says I need more experience, I am level 50 and completed Chap 3, but it is bugged also. I can say without a doubt that jumping in this game is infuriating. I also believe the Devs were either on drugs or are evil when they placed some of the datacrons, The +10, the Jawa Balloon 36 minutes..., the Rakata Energy cubes, Willpower on Taris, Aim in the Lava Pit on Belsavis... I also run guild events for the datacrons. The datacrons are extra, they are meant to be difficult to get, and definitely are not necessary. They are meant as a reward for going the extra mile, for exploring your surroundings. So use a guide, that is why they are called guides, solve the puzzle, figure out the jumps and the datacron shall be yours. As the U.S. Marines often say, "Improvise, Adapt and Overcome".

Character Name: Ujest Legacy Name: Shurly Ujest Shurly (U Jest Surely) From my EQ days (2004 - 2009), and Ujest has been in every MMO I have played since.

That is not how I remember D&D and AD&D, every group was based on the Tank, Healer, CC/DPS triad. As for the AI aspect I wonder what the DM sitting behind the screen rolling all those dice was for?

Thats right, no one cares except you. Every computer game has clipping, it is to complex and processor intensive to check clipping on every sprite rendered. Besides, unless grossly evident every where, clipping is a minor issue. The only games I remember being free of clipping were ASCII and text based games, every graphical game since the first has had clipping issues.

Never take word of mouth, it can often be honestly given in error, research and you shall learn.

If you can run that fast what are you doing playing computer games, you should be training for the Olympics. Hell that is just one minute slower than Roger Bannister and those that followed him in breaking the Four_minute Mile

Collect all the datacrons, some are in real interesting areas...

Between the afore mentioned valley and the Imperial outpost

Actually, there are two ways to get there; one is through a valley in the middle of the map and the other is through a tunnel that comes out near the Republic end of the above mentioned valley. As a side note, you can get to the Republic areas on most maps that have Republic areas, just have to be curious and explore...

You did not check your link before hand. That chart goes to lvl 95 (current EQ). Original EQ went to level 50, with three continents (I think Antonica, Odus and Faydwer). In SWTOR terms a Continent equals a faction sector with attendant sub-sectors. Since SWTOR has 4 faction sectors (Republic, Hutt, Imperial, non-aligned). SWTOR has about the same amount, if not a bit more, than original EQ. Thus you are trying to compare Apples to Oranges. p.s. EQ has been out since 1999, it has been running for 14 years, thus it will have more content than most any other MMORPG. The obligatory Wikipedia link to support my statements EverQuest

Then keep up with the Dev posts.

No, governments make and enact tax laws, and in the law they require the business to collect the tax as part of the sale, and then to pay the collected tax to the state at regular intervals. Now the business can, and is often required, to keep the tax revenues in a separate non-interest bearing account. OOPS, just read, carefully, the quoted post and the poster is sort of correct. The company is not charging you the tax, they are just collecting it for the government.

You pay the tax at the Point of Sale (PoS). Thus, if you live in a state that does not charge a tax for a subscription to an MMO, but does charge tax for the sale of a time card at your local game store, you do pay a tax on the MMO Time Card sale and thus on the MMO. However, it is just a one time tax, payed at time of sale, and not charged every month. Now you buddy, he purchased a subscription on the Internet and paid with a credit card, since you both live in a state that does not tax Internet sales he gets to play with out paying a tax on his subscription. At least in the US, any tax paid has to be listed separately and clearly, by law, on the sales receipt. There are exceptions to this, such as when the tax is included in the advertised price, such as with gasoline (petrol, Benzine). I don't think that is the same in some EU Countries and in some other countries around the world. Ain't chance fair....

Your quest log is full and you need to turn in or abandon a few. To pick up a datacron it first gives you a mission then completes the mission when you have the datacron.

Actually, by IP, the forums are on a machine in Dallas not Austin.

No listing of other processes running, no on screen indication of frame rates, no technical specs of system(s), to include the HDD. Insufficient information provided to know if there is a problem. No way to determine if it is a problem of software and which piece of software, or hardware or a compatibility issue.

How can BW be responsible for a players choice? You want BW to fix something that is not broken. You want BW to make your decisions for you? If you were a Sociologist or a Psychologist you could do a study of choices people make in race or faction choices in character creation in playing MMORPGs. Then you could post your report here and we all would know that the imbalance is due to the choice of the games players and BW can really do nothing about it.

Well maybe it is because many emotes are an action drawing attention to yourself; such as wave, jump, dance, shout, etc. While some emotes do not, such as sit, sleep and so on. Drawing attention increases the likely hood of you failing a does it see me check Stealth is not an invisibility; stealth just means you are taking actions to reduce your observability. Actions such as hiding behind a wall, a thick bush, keeping to shadows, blending in to the background, etc.

You may have gone through or were in an area that automatically flags you for PvP. These areas begin on Nar Shaddaa. All planets after Nar Shaddaa have them. You may have missed the scrolling red text, in the middle of your screen, telling you, you are about to be flagged for PvP in 10, 9, 8, 7, ... seconds.

The truth of the matter as for why more choose Empire is we hazz cookies.
