Yes, that would be awesome. Lv50 purchases please Bioware. Why would I want to run the same quests over and over and over? The only way I'm going to make an alt is if I can skip everything but the class quests. It's not real money in SWTOR. It's in-game credits.

Other random placebos most people aren't aware of include the button to close the door on an elevator (except for really old elevators or for people with a key), 99% of traffic light buttons and the thermostats in large buildings.

No, this game is about the illusion of choice. If the game was about choices there wouldn't be a separate story for each class. There would be one story with 8 times more choice. 99% of the time anything you say has the same outcome. Giving you three conversation options is a placebo. There are actually very, very few real choices in SWTOR. Not even your spec is permanent.

I reported several bugs in beta that would literally take 5 minutes to fix. Stuff like typos and such. None of them have been fixed. Not a single one. You really expected them to fix the stuff on that list when they didn't even fix a couple of typos?

Yep, just killed the world boss and the jedi ninja'd the +aim earpiece. This is why I don't PUG. >.<

Please explain to me how your whole team can't manage to interrupt 3 people?

The only way for me to enjoy playing with other people is for me to join an adults only guild with a strict and thorough recruiting process. I met a lv50 warrior in WoW who didn't have defense stance trained and asked me (a warlock) what level he gets it, then called ME stupid when I told him lv10. There are at least 2 of that guy in every pick up group I ever joined. Guilds are the only reason I'm able to be social. If I had to deal with random people I'd play nothing but single player games.

If there's one thing I learned in my soon to be 31 years of life, it's that 99% of humans are evil morons. Another thing I learned is that the internet magnifies this because people can't get punched over the cable line. People are going to act like people. Doesn't matter what game it is.

He was really low on health on health and you're not spec'd for healing. He would have died even if you did try to heal him.

And you still can't be doing two things at once with your mouse. How do you plan to kill someone you can't attack. Again, I challenge anyone to meet me somewhere in-game and stay facing me for just 20 seconds with keyboard turning. So despite scientific studies proving divided attention can make a gorilla invisible you think somehow this doesn't apply to standing in AOE. That's it. I'm done. Just keep ignoring science and basic common sense. It's obviously a waste of time to argue with someone so determined to ignore reality.

Actually, I edited to include a wikipedia page describing various scientific studies that back me up. I'm the only one here actually working from fact. I've provided scientific studies. Offered a challenge to keep facing me for 20 seconds using keyboard turning while I use a mouse. Nodody took me up on it. If anyone wants to just name a time, a place and a server and I'll meet you on a newbie planet for convenience. I also showed a video of the speed achieved with keys and asked someone to show me a mouse user who is faster. There's also the giant test that is pro gaming. The best test of gaming skill that exists. It's completely devoid of clickers.

Actually the ability to do it does make it fact. That's what a fact is. Something that can be proven. I was offering to prove it. Even if that was true, which it isn't, there's still the issue of divided attention, which has been scientifically proven in numerous studies to be a very serious problem. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inattentional_blindness The most famous is the one where people are asked to count how many times the ball is passed in a basketball game and it makes them fail to notice a guy in a gorilla suit running across the court.

If I can turn faster than you I can be behind you and you can't attack me. That's extremely relevant. Not being able to watch your mouse pointer and watch the battle at the same time is also very relevant. Remember this conversation the next time some idiot in your raid stands in the fire.

Come in-game with me. I'll literally bet you everything I own and 100% of my income for the next decade that I can do 5 360 degree turns in the time it takes you to do one while keyboard turning. Show me a clicker with 200+ APM. I can show you quite a few keybind users. I posted a video of one earlier in fact. Explain to me how it's physically possible for a human being to be looking in two directions at once. If it's possible for a clicker to be as good as a hotkey user explain to me why there are 0 professional clickers in any genre, any game.

Again, it's not physically possible for him to be as good clicking as he would be using keybinds. It's not up for debate. It's a fact. A measurable, testable, provable fact. Fact: One can't look in 2 places at once. Fact: Mouse turning is far, far slower than keyboard turning. Fact: Moving your finger a couple of centimeters to another key is much faster than moving the mouse all the way across the screen. Hotkeys are objectively better, period. I don't mind people preferring to click. They pay the same subscription as me and they can play however they have the most fun. I have a big problem with people claiming fact is subjective opinion. Because the clicker is standing in the AOE because he was watching his mouse instead of the fight. Also because any competent melee will spend ~80% of the fight behind him where he can't fight back.

You just described a situation that rarely exists in endgame PvE and never exists in PvP.

Personally I don't really care. If people want to suck that's more free kills for me. I just object to people claiming a banana and a Volkswagen are the same thing when in reality they couldn't be more different.

It's not a matter of personal taste. It's an objective fact that if you click (and hence keyboard turn) you cannot turn nearly as fast as if you were mouse turning. Does everyone you fight just stand in one place? If they're decent they'll be running around you and you won't be able to keep up because they turn several times faster than you. It's also an objective fact that unless you're some sort of human/fly hybrid you physically can't be looking at your mouse pointer and the fight at the same time. It's also an objective fact that professional gamers who are clickers do not exist. I haven't claimed anything that can't be measured and proven. Well, except maybe for the so-called "slur". It's pretty much common sense that people who can't spot massive differences between 2 people doing something are themselves bad at doing that thing though. Edit: Speaking of proven facts, let's meet up in-game. If you can keep your character facing me without using your mouse for a solid 20 seconds I will admit being wrong. My guess, however, is that you'll be facing me for about 5 of those seconds.

You're playing with baddies then. The difference is substantial and quite noticeable. Edit: Here's a practical example. I lost a duel yesterday that I never should have lost. I just came back to the game and I'm low level still. I normally click at low levels because because I'm gaining skills so fast that I'm constantly having to move stuff around and can never remember my hotkeys. I lost solely because I was clicking. The other guy was dancing around me and I couldn't keep track of his movements because every time I used a skill I had to look away from the fight. It also didn't help that your mouse can't be clicking skills and turning you at the same time so I was turning extra slow. He was behind me half the fight as a direct result of clicking. Because I wasn't using my hotkeys I was fighting at less than half my normal capacity.

If they're not committed to making a 2 faction system work they shouldn't have made both factions playable. It's as simple as that. Edit: They also shouldn't have even considered putting in a world PvP planet if they don't care about population balance. That's just asking for it to be a one sided curb stomp. Assuming people actually played it I mean. Is this your first MMO or something? In games with no system to prevent it population imbalances get worse over time, not better. People want to join the side where they can get a group easier and don't have to worry about being outnumbered in world PvP.

I don't remember ever saying you need to be a 300+ APM professional RTS player to play an MMO. I was using it as an example to show just how much faster hotkeys are compared to clicking. Edit: And it's a fact that clicking requires you to be watching your mouse pointer instead of the fight.

They can give some kind of bonus to the underpopulated side like extra EXP or money or something. They could also turn off same faction battlegrounds. I bet the problem sorts itself out real fast when the only way to PvP is to join the underpopulated side.

Red is a rare, but normal skin color for Twi'leks. They're called lethan Twi'leks. The blue ones are rutian, etc. It has nothing to do with porking sith.

I'm not a big fan of the dark side corruption. I don't mind the idea, but the actual implementation is horrible. It makes you look like you haven't washed your face in 5 years. What's up with the giant black smudges? The pale skin thing only works on human caucasian skin tones too. Sith purebloods turn pink and black people turn into Michael Jackson.

If anyone can post a video of them clicking this fast I will personally build you a $6000 god-rig and deliver it to you wearing nothing but shoes and a Santa hat. I'm perfectly serious.
