I guess it's not really changing anything, like distance, but whenever I jump I just FEEL like I'm jumping shorter distances, which really throws me off. PS I'm one of those guys who jumps around the Fleet, and I'm not about to stop

What kinda sucks though is that a bunch of these EU novels y'all are mentioning can become obsolete very quickly with the new movies. Anything on screen overrides anything on the page, unfortunately. I feel like kissing my Dark Horse comics goodbye.

I'm just glad my PTS character is lvl 12, just high enough to play in the WZ xD But to answer the questions concerning , we've gotten most of that content already, and we seem to be getting updates about every month. 1.6 will bring us the WZ, so all that's really left is Makeb and the level cap. This year? Pushing it. But I can definitely see it coming late January, if not a bit sooner.

What some of the people say in the Spoilers is true, but also remember that in the Star Wars universe many Jedi would be taught to give everyone a chance. If that is so, it wouldn't be nearly impossible for a Sith Pureblood to be accepted to the order. Besides, it's a big galaxy: your character could easily have arrived within the boundaries of the Galactic Republic before being corrupted by any Dark Side influence.

Doesn't Yoda say something about size not mattering? So even if we ignore things like Vader's Secret Apprentice bringing down a Star Destroyer, we can always think of such an act being possible: Force power could be viable.

Hmm, I wonder if on Tuesday this threat will suddenly come to a halt as thousands of Jedi run to their ships, OR if it will explode with hundreds of simultaneous posts ranting and asking questions that have been asked many, many times before...

Third person to ask, no response- I thought these companion romance quests don't affect the main storyline? Or are there just minor changes in dialogue but with the same end results?? (I'm on Act III, level 45, 9200 affection, and almost done...)

Sorry, but you'd have to powerlevel; that's what I'm doing (currently level 12 and hunting Lord Tarnis on Coruscant). If you're interested in reminiscing on the story so as to not be in the dark when we get flooded with companion quests when the patch goes live, I think rolling a knight on the public test server would work pretty well. The way I see it, the patch isn't going to be out for a while, so I've got time to get a character there up to the Defector and try some things out. That way I'll have a heads up as to what conversation answers will do what etc., as well as let myself know the order in which these side quests are supposed to come. But it's all up to you (PS: There are hardly any people over on the test server; I was one of about 3 on average on Coruscant today, and about 3 on Tython yesterday)

One thing I've noticed is that even though I'm nearing the end of Chapter 3(currently on Voss), Kira will respond during story cutscenes as if we've done things I haven't done(mine's been bugged since the start). I'm wondering if it's assuming I've done all these flirting quests I haven't done, or if it's just independent of the story? All a bit confusing with this bug.

You should be fine to continue. From what has been posted, the bug for new players is fixed, it's only people like me who did the conversation before the fix that still have issues.

The thing is, if you get a bunch of rank 1 or 2 gifts from the vendor, your companions start not liking them anymore. Atm, I get +0 affection each time I give a small gift- if this is so, a timer seems pointless. If gifts become obsolete at some point before maxing out at 10,000, then there shouldn't be a timer to restrain you from doing so.

LOL I did that too. If you read my spoiler, is the game assuming I've reieved the earlier side quests from Kira? Because I guess I chose the DS decision before the patch, yet I'll get the occasional comment like that in story cutsccenes.

Aww I think mine is bugged- 9200 affection points and all I've gotten are some strange romantic comments from her during the story; no side quests or anything, even though I'm nearly done with the story(chapter 3, on Voss). I think I picked the DS option, assuming thats what's causing it? (Seeing as you all have several different romantic options that never appeared for me)
