...... There is more than just end-game.

I listened to every line of dialogue in every single quest I could get. Did all the Heroics I could do, and if I couldn't, went back once I hit 50 and did lower-lvl ones. Did many flashpoints. Sometimes explored the planets and enjoyed the atmosphere and design. Maxed crafting, did all the space missions. Dailies and purples on all equipment. Probably have 15 matching armor sets. I was still lvl 50 long ago.

If a person isn't lvl 50 yet, they either play 1 hr a day, have a bunch of alts (and are apparently getting nothing done going in a bunch of directions at once), or are desperately lying to themselves, intentionally doing nothing, pretending there's more in the game than there is.


I remember when STO released, those fanbois claimed how there was so much content at max level. What were they doing? Standing around in Quark's bar and RPing. (ie, doing nothing)


The only way not to be 50 at this point is that you have no time to play, or you're making an intentional effort not to advance. (that includes making a dozen alts simultaneously)



Tracer Missile wasn't even close to a Merc's most powerful attack.
Suckwads spammed it, other suckwads lost to it.
Most apparently didn't even know they had an interrupt. Smart nerf, BW!

They could have slowed down the leveling a bit imo.

Fast leveling is fine but it's a little too quick in recent mmo's. It trivializes loot and crafting while funneling everyone away from all the worlds into a very small endgame experience. An endgame experience that is invariably unfinished and repetitious.

The saving grace for SWTOR is the different class storylines. Personally, I'm not interested in the endgame. It sucks like all modern mmo endgames. I'll be leveling alts to check out the different stories and when that gets old will probably move on to another game.

I am bored and i have played one toon to 38 and another to 15.

This game managed to last one week more than WAR or AoC, RIFT but i doubt it is going to get a subscription.

I must STOP buying CE of games.

Or you're one of those self-delusional fanbois (redundant, I know) that intentionally play slow and get nothing done, so as to pretend there's more to do than there really is.


I'm sorry but some of us have lives you know.... so that makes us bad players or self delusional fanbois......


maybe you should rethink that statement..........very quickly

It's a little late to claim rushing to 50 as a excuse.

Half the population is 50 now so pretending that these are just power gamers is a joke. If you're not 50 by 1/14/2012 then I'm a little surprised.

Also why are people who haven't even gotten to 50 criticizing players opinions that have played the game more and experienced end game? It's bad that they are playing and using the content?

Are you saying you want power gamers to "slow down"? How about I release HALO and tell everyone to give me 2 months to finish the final boss?

Right. So you play 1 hr a day.


Don't complain about not being 50, or wonder why others already are.

My highest character is level 35, and I'm bored of the game...

The old "don't rush to 50 then!" argument just doesnt hold much true, sure the voice acting is fresh, but the quests are even worse than other mm's if possible, the worlds are completely dead, I never see anyone from the opposing faction, and I'm on a pvp server, the endgame is already obvious, I can pvp as I do now or run dungeons.


I quit playing and cancelled the game, my question to you is, what are you going to do, when you've leveled 4 classes, and are stuck repeating the same side quests over and over? you're stuck with an endgame that is probably the worst I've ever seen.


The game is extremely dissapointing, when you take away the voice acting, I don't care about the bugs, they can be fixed, the core of the game is flawed.


Honestly, would you rather ride a bike 1000km to a 6 star hotel and live in luxery for however long you wanted to, or take a private jet to a cave in the mountains in Afghanistan? SWTOR is the latter, and I'll take a grindy game over a dead endgame any day of the week, when you hit 50 and stop doing alts, the voice acting will mean nothing for your gaming experience.

exactly....

i got a 50 toon...but im not complaining
rolled a new toon and enjoying everything till new content comes and back to main.
those who rush are probably no lifers...they rush everything...EVERYTHING then they complain with the usual "no endgame content"

the endgame content FOR A NEW MMO is great and swtor did way better than mostly any other mmo's in that term.
