Talk about UNfun. This is just over the top.

Absolutely - problem is my guild got assigned to Harbinger, which is over 2.5 hours now

Weap - you WANT linear trust me. Even wow has gone to linear as of late. Hve you forgotten how horrible it is to have to travel from westfall to the lumber camp in east Elwynn prior to the new FP's to do some defias quest? Took FOREVER.

wish mine was only 20 mins - 2.5 hours now

What a total joke. Can my guild server transfer to a less populace server?

November 9th - got in wave two this morning

You have to get an official e-mail to be invited to EGA. The code you will have to input on or by the 20th to set up your subscription and give you play time beyond the official release date.

Actually its just a few people whining like a mule and mostly other peeps getting on them about the QQ

I had this problem in beta and couldnt find a solution and my system is about the same size as yours. I did find an amazing post by someone about Windows 7 but havent had the chance to see if this works - here's the post anyways: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=1198

someone posted this thread about optimizing your system, Maybe this will help? I tried a few of the things but haven't been in game to test yet: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=1198

Good chance of that methinks.

Buddy of mine ordered on 9/4 and got invited this morning on the second wave. I'd be willing to bet everyone in November will be in tomorrow.

You say that as if its a universal truth - in some people's mind NEED is the option for companions. Look at this thread - one guy already made the case that improving his companion is improving his character - and frankly that's a valid point. I am of the school that your char comes first and companions have less priority, but again this is a debatable point. Operations will be handled by guilds and indeed I am in an Ops guild, but that does not mean people like me don't want this option, even when I am with all guildies. Sure we can sort it our amongst each other, but adding this feature would just make it so much faster and efficient. Not to mention that even the most hardcore Ops player will still pug at times.

This may interest you - buddy of mine had a pre-order as of 9/4 and he got his invite today in the second or third wave. Personally I suspect both October and November will be in by tomorrow and then Decemberists will get in first thing friday. I'm pulling for you man!

WoW doesnt have companions or space battles or companions that farm for you. Add in Panda bears and the easiest raiding tier since Hello Kitty and yeah, not a hard choice.
