So true.

This is a new and interesting thread. (sorry always wanted to post that. In before lock)

Oh god, yes!

It annoys me SO MUCH taht my companion still doesn't sheath his weapon, or I have to re-apply guard everytime I get off my speeder. Seems like amateur fixes any freshman programmer can fix; yet its STILL in the game. I just dont get it....

Can you guys imagine, after the years of planning; the millions spent that the ONE awesome thing that came out of this was that some guy won this? Its hilarious to think that everything that happened thus far was just all a setup for this one guy to win. Now the game will die and he will have the life size figure..

Great post. Though I don't blame the developers; its EA's management; im sure.

Yes you can play both, but your TIME away from TOR will further lower the average player population which will further impact other player's experience. TOR needs players to stay LOGGED IN and doing things to save it. D3 is gonna hit TOR hard.

I feel all warm that we are all fighting so hard so we can just hang and play with each other. <3 awwwwwwwwwwwww

SWG did it

I am still subbed, but if I were to quit it would be these reasons. 1)Too Linear - There are practically no sandbox elements of the game, each quest and each conversation is so tightly scripted that it offers little opportunities to make cool discoveries or go exploring. Everything seems so planned, as if I am playing a single player game. 2)Terrible Space combat - Its almost an insult to claim this game has space combat and than pass that blatant rip off of StarFox. 3)Dead Servers - This shouldn't have even been a problem if EA/BW properly planned for the initial surge during launch and then rolled back to normalize. 4)Unimpressive Professions - Professions in this game are laughable. The harvesting nodes looked they were implemented as an after though. But most importantly: 5)EA/BW Lack of Communication - This is an MMO; its an on going world of which we, the players, partake in your, EA/BW's, world. We share it and we should be able to talk about it. Or at least see what you guys are talking about. The silence from EA/BW is unbelievable.

This is stupid. Every class (in any game) will have an advantage at some point. You have to learn to adapt and anticipate how they are going to use their advantage. 1) Do not allow a guardian to leap to you. If you are LoS of him, its YOUR fault. 2) Save a knock back when a consular is nearby. Or zerg the consular. 3) Position your ranged at locations that guardians/sages WILL likely be at. Its all about planning and awareness. Yes, they have an edge on this map, but learn to ADAPT. Its not a game breaking edge. I do admit, that queuing with randoms and those unskilled (or just lacking the skill; level 10 and 49 in same bracket? w.t.f) makes this harder. But at the start, at least someone should call out a strategy. Stop QQ'ing for easy mode all the time. Life is fun when you win despite the odds!

Nice thread. Request sticky.

NO! It was terrible planning on BW's part. They should have expected a massive surge at luanch and then a gradual decline to normal levels. Its the same with ALL products introduced to the market. They should have had procedures for this in place BEFORE launch. They should have told the community that they will be doing transfers (before launch) and the only reason was to handle the upcoming and temporary surge. There is so much bad planning and lack of communication with this game's developers and managers. I honestly feel THAT will be its downfall.

Hybrid Build to maximize current Tier set Blade Storm Bonus. I kept Hilt Strike as my initial Threat boost move. This builds sacrifices defense slightly (no internal/elemental damage reduction from Inner Peace) but greatly increases DPS. http://www.torhead.com/skill-calc#500uMGzubMdZcGMMRh.1

You are an insider! I know you work for BW. THE TRUTH WILL COME OUT!

or the start of silencing dissident with bs reasons...

what the heck does that mean.

Good post, I agree with everything. Its such an insult to claim this game has "space combat"

This is dumb argument that is trending around. Would you NOT blame Ford for making mistakes that were done on the Model T a century ago? Digital age is much faster; MMO's is a staple; programmers are plentiful, beta testers are everywhere. There should not be this many issues., especially for a company with as much resources as EA.

..... that can be largely solved with PTR's with character copies. BioWare has an entire ARMY of testers able and fervently willing to do that work for them, FOR FREE, but doesn't do so; why oh why....

TOR still has the option to make this game more sandbox with introductions of new planets. Lets go Bioware, think Tatooine..but much much larger, open, without linear quests (perhaps the only linear being class based)

I see some dude preferring Aion's LFG system as opposed to wow. Someone explain it please, as i've never played Aion.

4 stars, well played

Again, Its ok to have it, but not required. And insta-death if you meet for PvP without a companion. Its effectively absolutely required. How many times you forgot to summon them before attacking and then wiping or near wiping?
