  1. Same here, just checked after you posted this. Started on 1st day out used 2 game time cards, no E-mail and got lvl 50 character, legacy Lvl 7. Logged in I also don't have my pet egg...I'm going to ask CS I'd recomend you do to.
  2. Sounds to me as though they changed the sound output from User to 3D sound( by your explinations) . I'm no expert on the Hero Engine but what you are explaining is usually the case with other engines I have used. Easy enough for them to fix, it's usually just a check box then server restart.
  3. Easy this game could be F2P if you can't see that already your blind. 5k for bag slot= 50 BW points.... It'd be better as F2P imo. They aren't doing as we ask as a community now so what would be the difference?
  4. hahahahahaha all this rage because they fudged a few scripts up HAHAHAAH. OP is right though they should have done extensive testing this is 1.1 all over again.... every major update = biofail
  5. hahaha Biofail messed up on their Variables!! Hard though. http://www.heroengine.com/ To any 1 ************, you try. To those who say the engines a fail http://www.udk.com/ Instead of ************ on a forum try and do it yourself
  6. ahh so its being added april 24-25th, I see! Thanks BW, but I think it'll soon change to "Every one with sub"....watching the flames on this forum is redic. You'd think these guys who are claiming to "Have a life" would care less, and you'd think bioware would give every 1 not just the lvl 50s added time....Bioware I understand it's hard to make a game. But a choice like that a monkey could make.
  7. why whats happend now apart from the ranked WZs? and whens this time being added anyway do i need to open an E-mail or something or is it auto added?!
  8. I played Imp and was a lil meh with the music. When I rolled Rep I was soooo happy! The star wars music & kotor music is on republic. One of the few bonuses to rolling republic! Also I like the cantina bands... Thats just me though
  9. Dude for £600 You could easily get a laptop to run it on high settings just maybe a refurbished one. Try E-bay, or amazon. Shops like john lewis are rip offs... Your paying for a name & not the quality of the product. Just search the GFX cards and CPU find out what gets you the best bang for your buck. I mean I'm on a lappy I paid 150 for and it runs everything on low. Shop around.
  10. But you need to mount a speeder to ride it? Right? Yeah speeders are fun though when you put it in first person mode and see the arms... Well I had fun with it
  11. If the server population is growing on one server and dropping on another its because people are re-rolling as many of us have had to. Their only growing due to lack of players on other servers...
  12. As a long time follower of the game I feel as though I should post a review about my personal experience with the game. Lets start at the beginning. I started my love with BioWare with the game KOTOR, this game really blew me away. It was one of the first RPG's that grabbed a hold of me as a 14 year old. I'd never played anything that got me so immersed into the game, making choices to affect the outcome at the end, meeting up with people along the way who I ended up falling in love with, the planets we're amazing for me (Korriban was my fave) and it was really just a new experience for me. So 5 years ago (maybe 4 ) when I heard they we're making SWTOR, you could imagine how happy I was. Around the time it was annouced I'd pretty much stoped playing video games, I was growing up and didn't have the time any more to play. But with the promises they gave for this game I was mega excited and thought I'd follow it untill release! So here I am 2 months after lanuch feeling a little lost. Now to the review The game at the start is AMAZING the CGI trailers I'd watched to death before launch gave me the "It's finally here" feeling. Watching the prologue gave me tingles! The starting missions where very well put together and we're immense! Then by around lvl 30 after the first chapter it started loosing it's magic. Everything started to just be the same old same old. I'm pretty sure some of the planet quests are identical! None of the magic from KOTOR was there. I understand it's an online game so they can't change anything to massively but nothing changes outcomes of quests, all the storys end up the same with pretty much exactly the same outcome (Bar you don't sacrifice someone, but you have to fight them before you choose this) You never hit a point where you have to kill/get rid of companions even if they don't like the way you act, why? I've loved this is almost every BW game, it gets me more immersed and makes me feel more for them. I can't belive this was made by the same people who made KOTOR, they say it's the same but it really can't be. Barring a few storys most seem to just be thrown together SI seems to be one of them. Where as the IA has an mazing story with so many twists and turns. Some are what I would expect like the SW story. I understand all these things are personal preference but really some didn't hit the bar very high. Next lets get on to game play. I really do enjoy the gameplay in TOR I never played WoW so all the controls/skills ect really are fresh and new to me! Jumping huge distances to pound on a foe or throwing rocks you picked up from the ground and bashing people in the head with them really is very fun! But the combat delay for the first month really did neg me out. It's little problems like this that first started me asking questions like. What 5 years in development and a name like EA behind them with so much cash they could build a house out of dollar bills, and things like this are in launch, WHY?!?! But they did make a huge difference to it when they addressed it but still a few classes have delay, which is never a good thing. So now lets get onto end game. End game on this can be lots of fun, it really depends on what kind of server you rolled on. At launch I rolled on a Standard server to just skip the ques, I just didn't want to waste time in them as I'm in a boat and battery is important to me so to waste an hour or 2 on a que screen would just defeat the point in playing for me. On the server I rolled on EU-PVP The Kumumgah was great at the start their we're lot's of people, always you could be sure to find someone for an FP/heroic or just if you needed help with a story quest. But now it's died. But flashpoints/Ops and PvP have the potential to be grrrrrreat! They just didn't pay enough attention on them which I can understand to an extent, but having bosses you can't kill and random respawns was just a kick in the nads. PvP warzones are fun untill you play them for the thousandth time but then again too much of anything is a bad thing. And Ilum, in it's current state is just plain flat out a waste of space. Also random FPS drops,really what we're you doing for 5 years guys? :s so over all I'd say 6/10 It could of easily been 8.5/10 if only they'd... Done something more with Ilum, give me more of a reason to go there then to click boxes.I won't go there to click boxes, I refuse to belive this is part of end game. Why don't they just do something simple yet productive, Why not have it so there's an actual time for wars, like once every 2 hours which lasts for 1 hour and then which ever side wins Ilum get to stay their and the other side gets locked out untill the next war? It'd give you a reason to go there and having planned war times boosts the population that will go there at said time, although to make this work properly you'd have to have it so only 100 imp/100 rep on each side, I know kids will cry about it but you can't keep giving everyone everything it just doesn't work. You should of had LFD tools & cross server PvP before launch up and ready, you knew this is just immesnely easier for casual players to get into a group because at the moment on low population servers theres just no push to log in(I re-rolled to Legions of Lettow because my old server died).No one will want to join a HM FP so the chance of getting a Ops group together is just not going to happen. Which pretty much kills all end game. What happend to looking at others and saying "Right I want that" Now i look at others ingame and say. Oh look you have the same as me, nothing is exclusive NOTHING. If every one has everything without having to work for it, then whats the point? I don't feel as though I've achived anything I'm the same as every other person in game, and to me thats a sad state of affairs. There needs to be some sort of negative for dying, just having to repair your stuff is boring, I don't care when I die. Sometimes I die to res back in town, imo you need to have a reason to live... Bug's I won't go into, because you guys are working well on these and I can see that from week to week. Server merges are now needed, please post something about this on the thread "Server merge's?" Don't belive the hype no one will leave, people aren't going to speak worse about the game because of it, people are at their worst now, belive me. I think thats as much as I can think about right now. I love the game, well what it could be. I just want to know what their plans for the future are because without any information I think I'll let the rest of the 3 months of my sub run out and just play when expansions come. I'm not a hardcore player at all I play maybe 2-4 hours each day, maybe more on the weekends if I don't have anything planned. But I am no where near playing too much. I think I am the perfect example of a casual player. So this is the review from a casual. Thanks for reading
  13. I had to re-roll on another server untill they make a move. They made lots of servers at the start to level out ques, now theirs less people it seems only normal they should merge now everythings leveling out.
  14. Too much of anything is a bad thing! This game will NEVER be F2P unless they go LOTRO route (They got lots more doe after going F2P) I really do want to love this game thats why I have like 4 months left on my sub but atm. I find the forums alot more intresting. imo
  15. Ok the charts are going to dip, at first. But they haven't dipped they nose dived. And the rest was true they should sort it the way you said 2PvP 2PvE Qs. Ect,ect. but look at the servers, really look! They are dying and it's a sad state of affairs. The issues of servers needs to be addressed. The thread about them hasn't had a single post from a dev,why? But we'll get real sub numbers at the end of march (end of Q1) Then we'll see whats really happening.
