tor has been nearly unplayable since day one. The ability Lag makes pvp and pve endgame content into garbage. It all depends on how bad the lag is that day, and how much patience you have. Sure, people leveling slowly will probably not notice it much(though it's still there), but pvp or hit endgame and see how it is. It's awful.

WoW has never lagged like this game with the exception of naxxramas in wotlk after the first patch of that expansion. It was fixed within 2 weeks though.

Bioware is doing a solid job at adding content so early on, much better than wow did at launch, but it's completely pointless when it will just lag like all the other content already in the game.

You think the complaints are bad now? Wait another month if this still isnt fixed. Will be far more 50's vocalising.

That's a good idea. But let's consider this: cameras in the 1920s 30s and 40s took pics nearly as fast as the ones today, well once they were set up at least. Either way the subject didn't have to sit there for 5 minutes like during Lincoln's day. Although Lincoln was emo, as was Mary, his wife, so I can see him all straight face. But still...

I do smile in pictures by the way, your assumption is very correct. Also thanks for the kind compliment.
No wall of text? Oh I love you dearly. I'm a history major so I'm sure you can understand! Really though, simply beautiful answer -- ty.

You must have me confused with someone else.

I've posted exactly 3 times in this thread (not counting this one).

The ONLY thing I said was that WoW had more issues at launch and less content, both of which are true.

What the HELL are you talking about?
"Skill" is the only PvP stat anyone should ever need.

Yea, I'm going to burn in internet hell for it but, I'd rather be intelligent and honest with myself and reality then like everyone else.

It's blasphemous in many aspects of life, not just these boards. I would call out the major offenders, but then I'd get more warning point things. I'm already walking on thin ice, and the game isn't fun enough for me to deal with a forum ban. I'm gettin' my money's worth here though. Man oh man....

cause they all thought the mysterious camera device was stealing a piece of their soul. would you smile if someone was stealing your soul? HMMMM WOULD YOU!?!

I don't believe in souls. Now if someone was trying to steal my soles i'd just kick them.
