I feel ya. Hang in there. GW2 looks promising!

can't turn off companion helmet pause when mounting/dismounting/checking inventory/bags etc... shouldn't this all be in RAM after the first time? wuss responses for BH - Skadge? really?

it's not 200 vs 200. It's more like 10 vs 10 in Ilum. It's not the graphics card or CPU or anything on my system. Proof? Yea. With graphics turned all the way down, I can tell when I'm going to get jumped by 10-20 people in Ilum (FROM BEHIND) just by the game slowing down to a slide show. So tell me, why does that happen? Oh, I see, my PC is rendering all those polygons that are not even on screen that must be it. Also, find a 100 FPS area like a tiny corner in your ship and mash the "b" on your keyboard or the character screen for that matter. Enjoy the slide show. EDIT: PS, if it's an AMD issue, that really no excuse.

Besides all the other issues like LFG, PVP, and content, I'm really disappointed in the performance. 12 gigs ram, SSD drive, and Radeon 7970 you can kill the framerate by the following: going to Ilum opening and closing your inventory mounting and dismounting Is there any hope for increased performance or is this engine THAT bad?

should have been in game from the beginning

Well, they lied with the loot and the companions. They said if a group member leaves, you can just use your companion to fill that slot. YEA good luck. Also they said you won't need to worry about loot due to tokens that drop. Sure. I've been lucky enough to get a healer for 5 hard mode FP runs and only got 1 drop while my friend still has yet to get one. And those tokens are so few in drops, I can't imagine doing another FP since the time invested to reward received is terrible. So, yea, you're forced to group and the payoff sucks.

I don't know. Seems to me SWTOR is already a single player game. All I do is shout LF healer in general chat (and <shudder> daily quests if i feel up to it.) I for one, am looking forward to GW where they throw the trinity out the window. You shouldn't be forced into specific type of gameplay.

I'm guessing a little of both. Losing interest in MMOs and the MMOs are getting to cookie cutter (tank, dps, heal) try breaking it up a little with Skyrim also you can check out http://www.thesecretworld.com/

stupid design IMO. WT-F aren't there 50 Champion guards near the med services to give you a few min to get ready and keep the enemy away? This is common sense to me.

he wouldnt be so bad if we had better responses to his crap. here's the choices we get 1) ohh ok, but i'm keeping an eye on you 2) oh ok, i don't trust you but what the hell 3) shut up or you'll get it response? try it pipsqueak? what the frank!?!?! what we should have 1) S*FU <groin kick> 2) S*F* <blaster upside the head> 3) STF* <blaster shot to the knee> ...and if you don't fall in line, you're going out the airlock!

you can always pull out the droid for conversations then bring out Mako for combat - that'll allow you to choose conversations for you alone

Does affection with him make him less of an ***hole? I find it very frustrating as a BH, that I cannot punch him in the face then stomp on him. Tell him to fall in line or I'll send him out the airlock. Why am I such a wuss with him?

TT-16A Powered Assault Helmet Chestplate of Coercion Greaves of Coercion TT-16B Master Powertech Boots awesome white, orange, grey, red-ish gear - mostly from belsavis i think

lol like the alien in the VIP area with the British accent? it just doesn't fit

even though im a shield tech i'll add my 2 cents. kill the weakest mobs in a group first. they go down super fast and if you take a long time to down an elite or strong, that's one or 2 weaks chipping away at your HP - it adds up quick also, check mako like above said
