It's really an issue of expedience over circumstance really though. Some servers are going to have bad communities and while this is a way to fix that, there's really room for both if you ask me. Taking a defensive position with this bounty hunter idea is wrong if you ask me. You should reestablish your position as one of innovation rather than a square peg argument. You can have both! I'm sure at some point Bioware is going to implement world events (or there are ones already and I don't know of them). A stronger basis in the actual world might be the wiser choice. The way to do this mystifies me. However, your bounty hunter choice would make perfect sense. Perhaps a giant server hitlist with rewards for the highest player (level 1 may be formidable) that balance itself for pvp exclusively? Or maybe that the guilds might want to protect this player? The constant rotation would tip gamebalance asway, sure. But that may be the best solution for the time being.

You fool! They don't need a God.... They need..... *pulls off hood* ... a hero.

Healers are good players because they realize the need for competency in their position. Pew pew I'm a spaceman wakes up disgruntled every morning.

I think the best team would be an aggressive gunslinger and Jedi Shadow. An ambush around a corner with the gunslinger drawing fire and then an infiltration with the shadow would be devastating to someone unprepared

Arenas are very effective for focus testing different classes and offering a very controlled strategic set up for PVP. I'm disgrntled that this game is missing this feature. I am a primarily PVP player and this simple inclusion goes a very very long way towards bettering the longevity of the PVP experience. I think that this game is young and confused and the PVP in this game is unfocused. We should be able to fight other teams of players. I'm not concerned with the rewards but maybe others are. That's a whole different department from me, I just like to fight in this game. Me and my friend work on combinations of classes and fight in battlegrounds, but they're really too open ended and difficult for practice. Obviously a foothold in both is important, but is that any excuse to deny one of the other?

Huttball is clearly a conflicting warzone. I just think that all of the discussion should fall within one thread rather than a ton of chaotic threads with off putting OPs. I think Huttball is pretty good but I'm in the minority of the people who are almost unanimously positive towards this game. I think it's interesting and it's one of those maps that I think might grow on people. It seems like the map is pretty cluttered though. From a design standpoint it makes sense to me but it's much much too multi-fauceted. Would it be tampering with the design to suggest that it might be severely trimmed and the player count reduced? Forgive the analogy, but to me it seems like a dodgeball class in high school right now. People who are incredible are missing the strategy of the game completely getting lost and just slaying people. If you ask me, the map itself works but it needs to be much much less wide. The fire obstacles are really much more antagonizing when there's such a massive area of fault if you mess up. You're looking at a really disconnected flustered group of players. The teams need to be smaller if you ask me. I think anything more than 5v5 is pushing it, but it isn't my call. This is only a suggestion. It's simply much too disconnecting and the colors don't work as effectively as something like warsong gulch to justify it. Paint one side blue and the other side red. Make it VERY obvious. Trim the sides and streamline the entire experience. You guys didn't play much football did you? har har har. jokes. but yeah. a football field doesnt have these complications. it keeps the focus much closer to the enviorment. Really it's a dysfunctional map if you ask me. But if it was executed properly it would probably be my go to warzone. Let me know what you think!

I think the reason that "forum nazis" are deleting threads are because people are viciously attacking the game without giving weight to anything positive. I really am seeing nothing but complaints and it's awful. Everything I see is vicious. "OTHER GAME HAS THIS". "THIS GAME IS DOING THIS WRONG." I would be incredibly unhappy if people were viciously attacking my product without giving weight to ANYTHING positive. It's like if you've just showed up at an art gallery with a painting and people are grabbing their magnifying glasses and comparing it to everyone else. Like sure. Comparitive critiscism is valid and all but to completely destroy individualism in products in favor of a "standard" that people only flock to out of adversion to change... It's not fair to the product! especially when they stomp it into the ground and want to basially DESTROY the painting before they can even improve it! Ridiculous.

I'm really sick of arguing this point. I get that people take a superficial approach to everything and have really bad judgement and unfulfilable expectations for everything, but there's a point where enough is enough and it's time to be responsible about your critiscisms. At face value, this game is a MASSIVE online game with an incredible amount of depth, immersion, attention to detail, love, and respect for both the product and universe. I've been playing for about 5 days now and I havent had ANY problems. None at all so debiltating that I need to cry on the forums about it. I've been having so much fun. I went on the forums to say how much I love it. No one acknowledges the amount of immersion. No one acknowledges the amazing enviorments and atmosphere. No one talks about the story or anyhting. I get really nervous about this. I think that there's a vocal minority who are going to run this game into the ground with nitpicking. Personally? most of the complaints people have are totally invalid with my experience. I HATE wow. I've been hearing about how wonderful it is for going on 8 years now. I hate it, I can't play it. When I was a kid I DREAMED of MMOs this good. This game has the potential to bring MMOS into the present era, treat us like actual people. Not just bodys with credit cards sweating at the thought of a full progress bar. I love it. I feel like I'm having an interactive experience. I feel like i'm playing.... A GAME. It's doing EVERYTHING I want in an MMO and NO ONE seems to care. I get that people complain. I get that people whine. But I really get sick with how goddamned persistant they are about it! They don't realize that if this game succeeds, then wow will get better even! Games in general will look at SUCCESSFUL PRODUCTS WITH NEW IDEAS (only thing that registers in CEOS heads), they dont get that itll get more companies spending more money (HELPING OUR ECONOMY) and generally have NOTHING BUT POSITIVE RESULTS IN THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY Nothing will ever kill wow. People are proof of this. You guys NEVER want your addiction to die. but we can all win if we start looking at positives. If we stop being so goddamned defensive. Please start looking at positives. Just look at everything and go "Maybe that was a good idea..." I know this will never happen. But I can dream, right?

Okay. Phew. Thanks guys. I just.... Like I really like it when companies do stuff like this... Productions that really look professional, polished, endearing... I get really nervous. This game is just what the industry needs right now... Maybe it wont get through some CEOs heads.... But if people realize that games really are good when they treat us like adults and give us unique heartfelt experiences like this... I just.... I love this game so much... I would be heartbroken if it failed like so many other MMOs... Really... I think this game has a greater power people are missing... It's so unique and massive... The potential is INCREDIBLE... This game could revolutionize the industry... I have so much faith in it. Please succeed Star wars.

Like... Everyone's not just cannibalizing and consuming it... ******** it out and pissing on it like what usually happens with MMOs right? Like.... You guys understand that this game.... It's really good? like it's.... Like it's doing okay right? Right? Activision's not trampling all over our villages and killing us with the brainwashed stormtroopers right? People.... People understand when a game is good right? They don't.... They're not just going to nitpick it to the point where it dies and plug their brains back into the all consuming faceless monster that WoW has become at this point.... Right?

I mean I have a pretty good suspension of disbelief but I'd like it if you guys made it so I could actually sound like a big 6 foot tall black guy and not a skinny white guy if I'm imperial agent like are you guys racist

pretty much every part about tor ive played so far has been revolutionary but no one can move past the fact that it used wow as a template like every other mmo and judge it without playing

get over it goddamn
