Not surprising. Its getting so expensive for companies to do anything at E3 that quite a few dont do it anymore.

Could not say. But no matter what MMORPG you look into. There is a portion of the player base that will always claim the game is dead, or dying. That it sucks now, and all that other crap. But yet, they are still playing and in a lot of cases, still paying to play.

I still enjoy playing. So #1 for me. The game has its bad parts and things that could improve. But if someone chooses #2, then they should probably just stop playing and for them, class the game as dead.

My vote would go to starting over. I did so on my main characters after returning. Just like you, I was here on release day and loved every minute of going through the stories again. The story while leveling is about the only reason I still play. That is one thing they did a good job on. There may be some spec changes that you will find and like a different spec. You could try different professions. With the leveling going by quickly. You can enjoy the story again and be back where you were in very little time. The only bad part would be if you had something you like on said character that is bound and cant be acquired anymore. But other then that, go for it. I think you will have fun.

It does not matter how good a game is. Does not matter how successful it is. Does not matter what MMORPG it is. There is always a very loud group of people that claim that the game is dying, and how bad it is. They off course always come up with some excuse as to why they are still playing. There is not a single MMORPG that does not have its "This game sucks and is dying" crowd.

Exactly what servers are they suppose to merge? West coast has one PVP, one PVE, and one RP. East coast has one PVE, two PVP (might be other way around), and one PR-PVP, and one RP-PVE. They could merge the two east coast PVP servers as long as they are low populated. But if they have too many players on them. It would be more of a hassle to the players then its worth. But they are down to the minimum for west coast already.

They also complain no matter what the devs do. If you listen to the forums, the game was the same as EQ and WoW. It was dying a month after it went live.

That is why game companies just do whatever they think the majority will like. No matter what they do, a number of people will complain.

What would your reaction be if every time you walked into a room and told people what you were working on, or why something is a certain way, the people in the room called you liar, every name in the book, and accused you of not doing your job? What would your reaction be if no matter what you said, people would twist your words and try to make it sound like you dont care? I tell you exactly what your reaction would be. You would quit walking into that room.

Yep, I drive right by them and even through them and they dont even slow me down. I get out of their range before they can even do anything.

I get them once in awhile. Usually when my character is running. Everything will freeze for half a second 3 to 4 times in a row then go back to normal. Thankfully it only happens one time every hour or two.

So, they allow people to try it for free. How is that any different then a trial account they had back when this game had a sub fee? Or for that mater any and all games that had/ have a fee?

Leave Story Mode for the people it is for. If others want more of a challenge, they can choose to skip SM and do harder content.

My view on the subject is the same I have for EQ back in the day, World of Warcraft, and any game for that matter. That view is the game is as easy as you make it. If you are looking for a challenge, you need to go do the challenging content wherever that may be in the game. If you refuse to go do that content. I dont see where you have any right complaining about the game being too easy since it is you that is choosing to only do the easy stuff. They are trying to make the game so it is fun for different people. Make part of it easy so anyone can get through it. Add in some harder challenges for those that seek them. It was that way for EQ, and its that way for WoW. This is no better than players on WoW who wont go PVP. Wont do anything with any challenge to it. But yet, they are the first to complain that what they are choosing to do is too easy. While they are complaining, the challenging content is still wiping the top guilds in the world hundreds of times before they finally complete it. While I cant say that the hardest content in SWTOR is wiping the top guilds. I can say that there is still challenge out there. But its up to you if you want challenge or not. But dont claim you do when you refuse to do the challenging content. As a note. I do not know if you have done the hardest content. But from my experience in MMORPGs dating back to EQ. The only people that claim the game is too easy are the players that refuse to do anything difficult.

The story line while leveling is the main reason my brother and I play. You are correct about the rest. But it isnt just this game. Every MMORPG is just a copy of others with different looks. They all repeat everything over and over again. The difference is how fun the other parts of the game, such as story while leveling, are. As well as how many times players want to do the same thing over again before they leave.

I have not used mine simply because I like going through the stories while leveling. leveling is the main reason why I play.

I would not mind seeing Rodain for the Empire and Wookie for the Republic.

You dont get banned for just falling through the world.

I usually don't agree with these types of posts. But this one I do. The only reason why I play is due to the choices and story that goes along with those choices. I wont play anymore when they stop.

The laziness of a lot of MMORPG players now days. Wanting to do as little as possible to reap the rewards.

The same as it does now. Everyone choosing the same due to it being the most effective. The only difference is they are being forced to choose the best spec instead of looking up on a website which to choose.

I don't give a crap about rewards. I don't PVP. I'm here for one reason, and one reason only. I love playing through the story of each class.

The people that had the 10 minute ban, were probably banned long enough for them to see that they didn't do anything wrong. So they were allowed back on.

The date isn't set yet. They have only said it will be out BY that date. That is not however the release date.

Go to a auto parts store and get some exhaust tape and a wide band clamp. The band clamp is a wide clamp that covers a good area of the pipe for holding pieces of pipe together. Use the tape to hold the two pieces together and put the clamp over the top of that. When the tape gets hot, it will weld the pieces together better and will seal the hole while the clamp will hold it together.
