  1. This would be a long list indeed so to summarize it for brevity: 1) So many bugs that haven't been fixed, some here since beta but also newer ones like the STILL broken friends list. 2) The entire Zakuul nonsense was so tedious that I never even got my main to 70. 3) RNG gearing. I mean there's usually some level of RNG to any game's gear at least to a point but the GC system is horrendous. 4) The focus on gambling boxes over actual content.
  2. I turn general chat off as SOP for all new characters so no issue there. The biggest question is; is BW ready for next week? Based on past experience the most likely answer is a resounding 'no'.
  3. I've been subbed on and off, mostly on, since early access and it's in the largest decline I've seen prior to the old server mergers. I started on Sanctum of the Exalted and moved to Ebon Hawk when that occurred. I won't declare it's dead and MMOs in general are in a decline, the days of a dozen or more all being touted about coming soon are past and only a few new ones are being actively advertised, but even with that SWTOR appears to be doing worse than could be expected. Checking the pop numbers for the servers and especially Ebon Hawk on the torstatus site shows this quite well. EH had a population coefficient of 1.49 in early December and now it's staying at 1.00. It had a few upward blips recently but the normal weekend bumps didn't happen and I saw that on fleet when I was on. However I've never seen the fleet as low as 40. It is down from the days of 2 full fleets and a small 3rd one but even early Sunday morning when I popped in it had 76; it was around 130 Friday night. The fleet isn't the most accurate measure of course but is at least a partial indicator of how the server is doing. Checking those charts shows that Harbinger and The Red Eclipse are the healthiest. EH and T3-M4 were closer to those 2 just a couple of weeks ago but have dropped down with the rest now.
  4. Good memories there! I still have some of those floppies hanging around from my Commodore 64 days and my C64 (newer model) still works too! EA made some amazing games back then. Not just the ones you mentioned (which are awesome btw), but also Archon II:Adept, Mail order Monsters, Adventure Construction Set, and the amazing M.U.L.E.! EA has definitely changed but the entire industry has as well for many reasons, not all of them bad.
  5. Some views I had on this whole thing: On Quinn (Act 3 SW & Quinn story spoilers):
  6. Well she's light 2 actually (6850 light/4400 dark), unlike her mother and her aunt who are both light 5. Light choices for the 'underdogs', the decent, and the abused; dark for most Sith, jedi, and SIS agents, among others since they need to eat some nice cold payback for her mom's plight. I took artifice to make my own relic(s) since I knew I was going to be bouncing around the spectrum with her. I like the freedom of her back story to deal with people like this. It's been a blast.
  7. Without giving too much away, act II was where I really found out just how good he was for my agent. Only he and one other NPC really cared about my agent's well-being among the hell of a story and that sold me on him. I switched my main over to their daughter (that I posted pics of earlier), because nothing says revenge like a ticked-off Chiss Sith Juggernaut force-choking her way through the galaxy! Revenge is better than Life-Day.
  8. Personally I always thought they looked like bad chickens before. But now they look absolutely ridiculous, like typical Scooby Doo villains. Mono Tiki Tia!
  9. I ruthlessly flirted with him, but then this happened: Later he asked me to marry him and I turned him down since I'm already married to my Mirialan Sorcercess via the family tree, but I still toyed with him one more time as I finished his quest line. It's good to be a sith lord.
  10. My new jugg was one of two tanks in KP last night. I had a hell of a time with the adds on the foreman since I lose their attention so quickly. Thanks to the guide, I am seriously considering dropping 2 points from either accuracy or dreadnought and putting them in decimate to build more aoe threat. Our tank for the boss is/was our assassin tank since she has a speed boost. We didn't quite kill him last night after a few attempts, but if I can get the adds to stay with me on the boss, we can nuke them down with aoe and hit the boss with them too. I spent too much time hunting down individual escapees and we lost valuble dps time.
  11. Female (and Chiss) for sure! The female agent VA does a fantastic job dark or light and her voice is so perfect.
  12. Ancient Paragon's of some type. I'm at work so can't confirm but that's the gist of it. She has the tanky version.
  13. Now that she is a full-fledged Darth, here's some new pictures of my Sniper and Vector's Chiss Juggernaut daughter! http://i870.photobucket.com/albums/ab268/Salamander8888/Screenshot_2012-05-02_05_57_55_591360.jpg http://i870.photobucket.com/albums/ab268/Salamander8888/Screenshot_2012-05-02_05_57_50_105046.jpg I like the whole attractive blue female Darth Vader look she has going now!
