Are you sure you want to blame people's bandwith? Really really sure? http://www.speedtest.net/result/1918929103.png That's from Chicago to San Diego. Here's to a local server, http://www.speedtest.net/result/1918937675.png I get about 12-15 fps in a warzone. What settings i play at doesn't matter (can't really tell the difference between them as they all look horrible) I would tell you my computer spec's but you've deemed it irrelevant. I guess my 4meg/sec upload isn't enough to play swtor. btw, WoW on ultra settings in raids i average about 50-60fps.

I have 2gb of vram and still have that issue.

I like swtor cause it randomly re-activates my account and I can post on the forums. All those other games that are p2p, don't give me free play days to entice me to come back to playing it, which i never will because MoP is far superior to swtor, even in it's current , nearly broken, beta state.

I was a healer through the first half of wotlk, then switched to tank when work got in the way of raiding. We were, at the time, a top 100 us guild. I will admit though, that i was one of the worst healers in the guild, but easily one of the best on our realm.

hmm i thought they fixed that. You know though, now with combat logging, you can provide proof. Keep it turned on and when something like this happens, copy paste the death so you don't get fanboys coming in here saying u sux learn2play.

Why do you compare a game you play to a game you never have played? Anyways, WoW does do this. If you are a healer, and you have the boss targeted you can cast a heal and it will attempt to heal the target if it can't it will try to heal the targets target. However, at least in wow, if you try to heal the TANK like this you are completely retarded. Maybe back in MC days when boss mechanics were simpler and you NEEDED and had 3-4 dedicated tank healers, you could get away with the heal "forwarding". Today though, bosses have mechanics that switch target, inflict massive damage, then swap back fairly quickly, often before many people could notice and cast their heal. Instead of taking 10 healers like you did in 40man, you're taking 4-6 (unless your a bad guild then you're taking more). You could cast a heal that's easily going to the wrong target without noticing or being able to cancel and re-cast effectively. DPS works the same way, but there are many times you don't want to blindly follow the tank's target as a single tank could be tanking multiple mobs, and you only need to attack a single target. Blizzard has had assist (and tank) frames that allow you to target a single friendly and then they would be the person in charge of focus DPS. You could do this in all of wow with macro's and later without when they changed how targeting works. Besides, the ONLY thing you need to be an effective healer is mouseover or click casting and a proper visual cue system (i.e. calling out that Joe is about to get bombed with super massive dot ). Almost anything that players have needed to raid successfully, blizzard has added that to a raiders toolbox. Whatever is missing is soon added by addon authors.

People have been doing "Challenge" mode for a long time anyways, they're just adding ways to prove your merits and reward accordingly. I remember back in stratholme, our guild had contests for who could run dead side the fastest, with 3 or 4 people (when 5 was the cap)., etc.

Hmm.. maybe we should all start chanting change the engine or sell the IP to blizzard for proper development ?

It'll be a feature in the next patch that will break something like raid resets or something stupid like that.

Who doesn't! I mean it's so hard to figure out if it's AM or PM by looking at your wrist watch. What would they do with something like this, http://gadgetsin.com/uploads/2011/12/ziiiro_ion_wrist_watch_1.jpg Would they think it's 3:00 am or pm or 06:00 !!!

This just blows my mind. First off, while there are quite a few Americans that consider America the entire world, saying that ONLY the US and Canada use a 12h clock is wrong. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-hour_clock#Use_by_country Also, you don't "count" gallons or feet[sic], since they are units of volume and distance, which are measured.

awesome. i found this too, http://www.spacearchive.info/military.htm I was wondering, do these guys complaining about 12hr time format know how to read an analog clock? Some images of clocks in Europe Supposed oldest clock in Germany on some church. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IGVy5D9HfEo/TCcTlzCPEdI/AAAAAAAAAPo/OBnG_ajU7FY/s1600/small+clock.jpg Street clock in France http://wwwdelivery.superstock.com/WI/223/1597/PreviewComp/SuperStock_1597-106729.jpg London, http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02040/big-ben_2040112c.jpg

Remember Archimonde? It was down for the second two weeks of live. I remember they gave every one straight up two weeks compensation for those accounts alone. On Hellscream,I remember at least 10 days of compensation before the end of 2004.

Maybe he forgot the 0, when they had those 30hr extended maintenance windows?

By "see blizzard do this," you mean hype a patch update over the course of a month, have it implemented for barely a day then push out another minor patch the next day that reverts your over-hyped patch, then take the servers down to make a NEW patch with no notes and more changes than just putting every thing 1.2 did back in place. yes, we have and will never see Blizzard do this.
