Compared to an existing server, how is the performance? In general, performance was good. There was a higher than normal server ping. On SS and SF I get 25-50 ms, here I was getting 200-400 ms. Any specific areas or planets where you feel the performance has lessened? The only drop in performance I noticed was in GSF, although it may have happened in PvP too, but I don't do it often enough to notice. This was due to a slight lag which I assume was the higher ping. What region/country do you reside in? Northeastern USA Provide a comparison of ping from existing servers to Shae Vizla. Normally, 25-50 ms, on the test server 200-400 ms Is grouped content working properly? The content and objectives appear to be working. Obviously, I can't observe all of them at one time. How quickly can you get into a match or Flashpoint you’ve accepted? Queued with a 4 person group and it accepted us right away (as it should), PvP had a little wait. GSF we had to encourage others to queue in order to get the match in. Low population I'm sure was the reason for that. Is travel to any location (planet, Stronghold, Fleet, etc…) hindered? Nothing I noticed. Are there any issues with the UI such as missing assets or loss of functionality? No. I started a new character and copied one over. Copied character appeared to have everything where it should be. Are there any issues with visuals or sounds with the cinematics? No. All the ones I had viewed seemed to run as expected. I did have an issue that I could not duplicate. When grouped up with a friend, her screen displayed a different level on my portrait. Not sure if it was a glitch or bug.

Agreed. I don't mind it left in the game, but it has a bit too much power as it currently sits.
