pretty disapointing that I agree with every single thing you said, OP. I, myself leveled a Gunslinger to 41 to only realize it was the most worthless class in PvP, sad I had to level a powertech up to 35. End result.....Empire is disgustingly more powerfull than the republic, bottom line.

Any form of craftable epics (BoP/BoE) would be awsome, or if there already is, make them better than the first teir of raiding content so it gives incentive to roll that profession.

Considering there were other gathering professions that atleast provided some dps output besides stamina, anyone with mining was really clueless. On topic though, I agree with what others are saying, This is just a repeat of every other MMO raiding experience; there's going to be hardcore min-maxing guilds everywhere you go. My thought is if you're going to be in one, make sure its worth it.

vanilla wow was filled with class faults everywhere you looked, naked rogues ganking full t1 geared warriors, shamans with legendary maces auto swinging to win, paladins taking 1v4s as prot/holy, hunters being able to aimed shot for 95% of a mages health in 1 hit. also the many bugs that came along with the game was overwhelming. To see such a smooth game like SWTOR, I'm impressed.

He's right, companions need to be geared, especially as a smuggler I've noticed. I can kill a same level elite with a bit of struggle, It would be easier though if I had my companions gear up to par with my own. And I've also died quite a few times from class quests that were in the orange color range for me. IMO companion gear is just as important as your own gear. After all, these people rolling on the gear will use it in the end, so whats the big whoop

if the ui was so bad, as your wife said, with 6 months of testing, then why are you yourself feeding money to origin?

its the first day and you already have a page of ranting, I think you need to re evaluate video games in general if these things bother you that much

this is exactly what mmo's should be avoiding, if you can do all three roles with one advanced class then it defeats the purpose of classes in the first place. WoW already screwed it up with druids, lawl @ range dps melee dps tank and dps, all with the flick of a switch.

Are there any plans to have server specific forums? I always found they brought about the best times between players. Also handy for setting up events, etc etc, the possibilities are endless.

\ honestly this is one of the smoothest launches of any MMO I've ever been around for, including all 3 expansions to WoW, warhammer, and some others. Also, the feedback from the dev. team is not leaving its' members in the dark like most have. I will be standing besides bioware and defending them until i see otherwise.

Roughly a 500 que on Jung Ma at 6:30 EST just as a heads up. I think making more availability for RP-PVPers, in conjunction with character realm transfers would really help this issue. Although it doesn't really bother me as this happened all the time in my 6 years of WoW, and the way they handled it was a lot worse, never locking server that had extremely high populations and constant ques. Also servers that had 50:1 faction ratios made the game dull and boring, hopefully this team of developers will learn from their mistakes.
