Indeed. Just log onto it from the main server list and check your characters copied fine, then log off.

Are people in here talking about the high population test server, or the public test server? Because they are different servers, as far as I know. The high population test server is testing Bioware's character copy process (you can simply log in for a few minutes to check your characters copied to it fine, that's all) and it's available on the main server selection list with all the rest of the servers. The other server (the public test server, or "PTS") is for the patch testing and is separate entirely.

Did someone say more character slots?! Awesome!

It could be, but it's still there when I put the weapon away too.

Seems kinda funny walking around with a mood look on your characters face all the time. Then again, sometimes I notice my character looks angry a lot... Amusing idea, nonetheless.

It sounds more like it would be a battle of Presence scores - whoever has more wins. Though you could probably just look at the character sheet to decide that preemptively, and not bother with an actual battle.

As in real life, there are all sorts of people with the same names in the world that don't know each other, or have any direct relation. I don't see how it's any different in a fantasy world either. Regardless, if a persons "unique" Legacy name is worth being copied (deliberately, or not) by other players, it probably wasn't very unique an idea for a Legacy name to begin with. Take heart though, your characters first name will stay "unique".

The changes sound interesting. I'd like to see how they play out before making a decision either way. As for the force wave thing, turn with mouse. There are already a number of abilities in game that require the player to pay attention to their position and facing anyway. This is no different, imo.

I didn't join this game for the PvP. So I doubt having them focus on it would be grand idea for keeping me around.

Part of the reason I like the mentioned threads is because they get to the point instead of long whiny posts that derail the topic with provocative (flame-bait!) complaining, rather than constructive critique and solutions/suggestions. Too many topics on these forums aren't constructive at all when it comes to talking about game improvement, and that's a shame because people will tend to disregard the opinion if it seems more targeted toward evoking a reaction, than being genuinely helpful.

Unfortunately, this is what happens far more often than not. >.<

I'm glad they are apparently changing this to put us back where we started from pre-instance. Now I wonder if they will let us respawn at the beginning of the instance when we wipe, instead of loading outside it? As much as I like loading Ilum and the fleet, I do hope so. >.>

Hm no, I don't think it's a tank alt issue. I think players in general do this regardless of what they play.

You stay because you enjoy the game. If you're not... leave.

Good luck with this one, honestly. It's badly needed on these forums as so many people post what could be legitimate concerns, but can't do it without taking jabs, being hostile and insulting someone. So, it will be a monumental task for the moderators. >.<

1) Better game performance. 2) More character customization options. 3) Dual spec.

Is this person for real..? Lol nah, can't be.

Honestly, I think people would just use the roll for companions instead of the usual greed rolling all the time to ensure their kick at some loot. We already have Need, disassemble, greed and pass. I would like to see some restrictions on need rolling for gear that isn't meant for your class, though.

*Cough* I'm sure if the mods wish to move it, they will.

Expansion maybe, that would make sense. I think they mentioned something about wanting to do the same gender stuff with new companions in the future, rather than just doing this with existing ones.

It's not about being "PC". It's about adding features to the game that a lot of players happen to enjoy.

I don't think they'd be added until a large update for class storylines, if they are added at all.

Yea, those "speeders" look sorta hilarious. Like big flying couches.. or beds. I agree they are annoying to click around near mailboxes and such. Oh well!

Wait - same gender relationships are somehow demeaning?!

Interesting video - I think this guy is on the right track. Thank you for posting this.
