SWTOR: More innovative than FPS's

ummm you mean, the innovation is in the tab that says "things will be added here at some later date, if ever"?

Everything is more innovative that FPS's. FPS's are the most stagnant game type in the industry putting out the same games over and over again. LOL at people who think Modern Warfare is "innovative".

Swtor also has:

Destructible environment
4 tiers of mobs
More vehicles (taxis and mounts) than other mmos
Shielding/dodging in 360 degree radius
Combat animations in 360 degrees
Cover mechanic
Less rigid adherence to the mmo trinity than most mmos
Way more crafting diversity and gathering skill usefulness
More diverse and useful cc
Lightsabers
Heroic areas/quests
Surnames
Immersive lore via codex

Innovative? It's not even at the bare minimum standard. Here's a few things this game needs to even get in the game.

Sell All Grey Items vendor button
Auto-stacking for items entering and leaving the bank
Crew Skill materials deposited directly into the bank
Global LFG channel/Better LFG system
Better PvP matching (based on valor and groups?)
Better GTN interface )
Round your light/dark side points for those with diplomacy
Shift Click Names to get /who information (and in Right Click Menu)
Groups stay grouped after a warzone
Ability to unbind the \ key from opening the ticket creation window
Option to auto sort inventory by rating/type/price.
Customizable UI (scale, moveable, etc too much to list)
Allow multiple gumps to be present on screen and the ability to drag them around with their position remembered. No more companion returning from a mission and closing you out of a vendor.
Icons on Operations Frames to denote player role, determined by their talent tree, to quicker way to realize who is a Healer, DPS, or Tank.
Macro system
Dual-spec
Heroic Repeatable Quests appear as a different color on the map after you've completed it for the first time. (light blue)
Character idle animations, such as rolling arm to relieve shoulder pain, studying your new armor, brushing dust off of self, looking off into the distance. Characters are statues as of now.
Moving items into Vault and vice versa should stack with any previous stacks of said item.
Items purchased from a commendations vendor can be sold back for a full commendation refund before it is used/equipped.
Vehicles allowed in spaceports.
Target of target
Weapons Preview
Combat Log
Roll Function
Day/Night Cycles
Ability to mute companions
Server forums
Ability to keybind space combat controls
Swimming
Better raid frames (debuffs are incredibly tiny)
Dark/Light side requirements on lightsabers/relics. If you want them you are forced to gain alignment a certain way and not choose whatever you want.
Deserter debuff for warzones
LFG comments get cut off
Training dummies
Guild Hall/Ship
Guild Bank
Specific AC icons on PVP scorecard
Allow to see scorecard during a warzone and not just the end
Tab targeting doesn't always work correctly

None of these are innovative, just standard for mmo's.

i'd argue this is an useless overburdening frill that adds nothing to the gameplay, rather than "innovation"

It's better than throwing in some half assed system that has no purpose for now. And it doesn't stop you from gaining levels until then. But your mindset is that of many, I WANT IT NOW!

(this part not directed to you Kloss but the haters who troll)
The best part of this all is there are other games out there that you love and are having such a hard time with the fact this game isn't it. None of them have shut down but SWG because of SWTOR. So you CAN go back to them but stop with these threats that this game is dying b/c you are leaving. No one gives a **** if you leave people, don't you understand that NO ONE CARES!

Yay, we get a post from the most prestigious of all baseless SWTOR haters!

Have you ever played an MMO where the quest givers talk to you about the quest with actual voice actors?

Have you played one with stored conversation choices? Choices that effect your character in future quests?

Have you ever played an MMO where the full Story elements don't end after level 10, but continue all the way to Max level?

Have you ever played an MMO where you had a companion that talked to you, learned affection toward you based on your actions, and was an integral part of your combat tactics?

These are all called innovations, and they are not minor or dismissible. They are HUGE in fact. I will never play another MMO with Quest Text. I tried to, and it just sucks too bad. I like having my gameplay be inside a Movie instead of the same old quest text.

Having every minor feature other MMOs have developed over the last 5 years does not make it innovative. Those things will be added over time.
