i had a blast playing beta i got to level 25 and tryed out a speeders and spent alot of time pvping. really this game has a chance to be the best MMo out there but thats a chance other games have had that chance and they blew it. but all we can do is wait and see what happens.

i really did have a good time playing but there was a few things that got to me. the bigest thing was how easy it was to level and earn cash i hope it was set up like that for beta and the real game does not give that much XP i mean i went from level 18-22 with out even losing my rested from being in my ship all i did was pvp and space combat it only took me about 3 hours to do that and that was with smoke breaks. and when i did hit level 25 i was able to aford my speeder and the training no problem. every pvp match was 10k + exp and 1-2k credits it was kind of a let down seeing you dont have to work hard to earn your levels or gear all you have to do is PVP and then go buy what you need.

the other issue i had was the amount of damage the trooper is able to pump out from across the map. i got really pissed getting 3 shot by someone across the map and having no way to even get in range of them before im dead. that was the one class that stood out as being over powerd at least in hutt ball there is enuf areas to be able to line of sight the trooper but there was also issues with healing in hutt ball due to line of sight.

but over all i will still be getting the game and enjoying it i enjoy pvp and pve so if the trooper dont get a nerff it wont matter to much to me


I dont want to spend hours leveling... I like the way it is... if it takes me any longer to levell.... chances are I will not play anymore.

I had a beta entry but after beta testing Rift i sort of wanna wait till the release.. I remember beta testing Rift then feeling like I'd seen/done everything by the time launch came around.. Not to mention i just bought a raedon 6870 to replace my 9500gtx, jus waiting on the shipping.. So atleast when i first play it ill have a decent fps.

But yeah.. Pretty excited for this one :) Thinking of being a bounty hunter or smuggler.

i hope they add a feature to accept quests faster, if you played beta or you already made a character you dont want to listen the whole story again, thats the only negativ thing on swtor...

was sure a hard work to make the brutal big story but it doesnt change that it gets boring if you already know it :&

To fix this I rolled characters I wasn't planning on playing. This way I still be surprised. However, once one rolls all the different types there will need to be something there....

I just played long enough so I knew the feel of the game and the controls. That way I won't be bored at the start anyway (I stopped as soon as I got to Kaas city)

So is the beta over? (I know the weekend one is over) It says that the testing is over and servers are down but yet it says the servers will be up sometime this week? I didn't get to play very long and pretty much got done with my Ascension area before it got over.

if you want to get threw the videos faster hit space bar this also works in void star on the opening video. if you get put into a game late that video sucks. but your answers in the story do mean something so you might want to hear at least part of it. i found some answers give you points so your crew likes you more and some answers take points away like khem vail or what ever his name is will dislike it if you are being nice but really likes it when your a smart ass and the more they like you the more they give you missions to talk to them if you make them happy in these missions you get XP and rarely even items. but if you piss them off you will notice they will fail alot of the missions you send them out on. and the dark side light side choices in missions are a big deal there is gear you can only get if your fully light or fully dark and some of that gear is pretty sweet i saw 1 vender with a red/black saber stone and the stats on where damn nice but you had to be dark side rank 3 to be able to use it . and as far as i know there is no gear like that for gray force users meaning you make light and dark side choices and never reach light or dark rank 1. but if you stay gray you can use all the basic colors of light sabers green/blue/red/purple/yellowish gold.

That's cool. I've seen alot of noobs at the official forums saying that they're going to play their Sith as lightside characters. I thought that sounded retarded.
