I live a few miles from a filming location, is there a way to post them here? I basically live by Endor lol.

I got stuck at 99.96% that's frustrating, but that's the nature of using a bit torrent style downloader. People that have 100% will stop seeding the DL. So there are not a whole lot of seeders that have that last packet you need. They could fix it by having a extra server seeding the patch on days like this.

Lets say your on one side... you can have friends or bots pad the opposing side to give your side an advantage... There may not be great rewards for botting in a WZ, but there are disadvantages to being on a team where you got one less person contributing.

Some people think that civility and morality do not apply in a game... Those are the people that are stuck in single player mentality, and cant grasp the concept that they are part of a community.

When you hide behind a screen your true self emerges. you don't have to put up any false act for some real life social situations, so you let your self go. The liberated feeling can be addicting to a decent portion of the crowd. So if you got some deep seeded personality dysfunctions, and to some extent, people that escape online do... you will loose control. So what kind of people get online, use an exploit for greed and exploitation? Could the same people, be people that feel the real world has let them down? Will they come to understand that in a virtual setting they become the very thing the hate in the real world? When a person discovers a bug or exploit it becomes a "moral" choice to take advantage of it or not. Saying "everyone else is doing it", is kinda the same arguments that allow for mass murder in the real world. Do what you want to do online, but know that there are people out there that are going to see who you really are deep down inside, and if I see you in a tent on wall street ill call you out as a fraud.

I am bored.. I haven't played WoW in 2 years. my Highest level is 28. Why? because they put timers on crafting activities.. forced wait... it wouldn't be so bad if it was around 5 minutes, but as you go higher it feels more like a penalty. Load times for some planets are painfully long.. Quests are sparse, and my level has yet to really catch up to them.

this issue is a pain to me... it has significantly changed the amount of time I play the game... now my average "day" starts like this: 1) go to a planet (current planet load time > 4 minutes) 2) run a handful on missions 3) get bored, use fleetpass 4) pvp/craft for a hour or so, get bored... 5) log off wait for fleetpass to refresh, then restart the process. there seems to be a lot more boredom once I hit 25... and im taking my time at this game..

I think a lot of it has to do with the clunky asset system they used.. large compressed asset files sorted into categories may be a great organization tools for the development side. BUT those files load like a computer that hasn't had its hard drive defragged in years. watch your hard drive during the loading and you see that it spend more time decompressing larger files on the fly then it takes to load that file... They used a "Developers" tool to make the game.... not a "Gamers" tool.... a system optimized to make game development easier... but they forgot to make the "gamer" side of it efficient.

Need to re write this for your statement to be correct... Change "Played" to "exploited, and grief other players." Is it so darn hard for people on both sides to see that something is unfair, take a step back and walk away... The future looks bleak when you see soo many people willing to be so cruel, and greedy, against other people.. especially in this day and age.

5 minutes is not bad... trying being on a server labeled "light" 20 to 45 minutes during off peak time for me... but once I get in a match its like I sync up and just keep hitting them one after another. our server basically only has enough PvP'ers to run one match at a time it seems.

My server seems to have a low enough population that its near impossible to find groups. I can be in a zone with 20 - 30 people and no one even response to general chat about anything. Its a cold lonely server... It might recover slowly... There are guilds, but none seem to actively be recruiting... I have even asked around in general chat and I don't get any response. My server is generally lacking in social skills.

At his point PLEASE DONT respawn in FP.... There are maps where there are no exits at the beginning, and if you are at a point where you cannot for any reason complete a map, there would be no way out. They need to add a way to leave a map if you cant finish it.. The mandalorian "entrance" was locked to me yesterday and I could not exit except to kill myself. Another map I had forgotten to trigger a platform, got stuck down a hole, and there was no "backup" switch, and I had to kill myself again to leave that map.

Yea and his actions will not be considered griefing based on the TOS.

The game assets are all bundled into individual .tor files. Some of the "areas" or planets have asset files larger then others, and you also have some .tor files related to GFX and so on.. While playing the game the software has to seek thru each of the .tor files to find what it need at a given moment, preload some content, and so on. You can have the greatest machine in the world BUT if you only have one hard drive, then your system is handicapped. Your hard drive has to swap between running windows operations, swapfiles, and game asset loading. This assets system TOR has is one issue, instead of loading one file after another, it seeks thru multiple .tor asset files that have texture and mesh data fragmented all over the place. The asset files for gear is split up into groups for each body part, each file is around 500KB there is a total of 2.2mb of armor data to "search" thru. in a crowded area with people using all combinations of armor you should see some lag because of this. Add this to the fact that the .tor files are compressed, and have to be decompressed on the fly. I can go on and on about using large compressed asset files, but as a short term fix, its best to get a 2nd HD and run SWTOR separate of the operating system. This will speed things up, and save the life of an overworked HD. If you really got the cash buy a Solid State Drive (SSD) I would love to see the performance improvement with one of those.

If things were so easy then you would never need to go back and fight the guy again... presuming that its a group mission, you could come back and try for your very own, or even farm the mods out for other pieces.
