What SWTOR will be

Another fan of Wow I take it.
People that play wow don remember hos it was back when Wow came out. IT WAS *********** HORRIBLE! Then it slowly build to the giant it is.

hm strange, seems my comp is just doing fine, with the changes they make, even better performance, and running with the -3 LOD change @1080p with AA forced and shadows ...

Give guys like the OP your support, in the end it is them that hurt the most as they set themselves up to fall the farthest.

The game just isn't fun for me anymore. I know bugs will eventually get fixed. It was the in-your-face linear game play that turned me off after leveling 3 toons. It just doesn't feel like an MMO to me.

Look in to support forum, "Horrid FPS" thread is been up for more than month. Even that does not make sense, if peoples have same hardware, some computers run game, some won't.

it could be your burned out, lvling 3 toons in this short timespan can cause it, ive been playing since release aswell but sticked to 1. And im glad i did after doing all those voice acted quests.

Its good to take a break once in a while, or to stop questing and do some other things

Exactly, thats what im aiming at, it isnt becuz its not running well on lets say your pc its a total POS. Every machine is diffirent, has diffirent Rendering powers, etc

Optimisations, peoples comps (even thou there identical in parts) can run diffirently

Thats the hard thing about PC games, soooo many variables to play with, and a game that has all thing right the first time, i have yet to encounter

You posting biased fan garbage, if other games working fine, then it has nothing to do with computer.

TOR has bugs no doubt, but the game is entirely playable from 1-50 as well as the endgame. You are either being disingenuous about the amount (and severity) of bugs in this game, or you lack experience with the genre. This has been by far one of the better MMO launches, right behind RIFT, which was a much smaller game.

If you had experienced say, EQ's, SWG's , Vanguard's, or any other number of MMO's , hell even WoW's was a horrid launch with many bugs, some rather "game breaking" (like the loot bug) , all had far worse launches and equal or worse (and more) bugs.

Again, yes TOR has bugs, most of them are small annoyances, but it is far, far from the worst.

I don't know what SWTOR will be. Currently I'm really, really enjoying the stories associated with each class, and the leveling process feels like much less of a grind because missions are significantly more interesting than the leveling experience in previous MMOs I've played. That is to say the parts I'm enjoying are the parts that are more akin to a single player RPG.

And that's actually where my enjoyment of the game ends, bugs completely aside. The multiplayer experience brings nothing new to the table; in fact it feels dated. The mechanics feel just like WoW. The gear is uninspiring, nothing is unique, it's all just a linear stat progression and doesn't offer any mystique or intrigue - the feeling of getting an upgrade will never compare to the feeling of getting, say, a Ridill in FFXI, or a Nightmare battleship in EVE.
The market is stagnant, and can even be completely circumvented during level progression. The majority of crafts are borderline useless and there is no real player economy to speak of. The PvP is unvaried, lacking in long term incentive, and same old.

I think I will probably get as much as I can out of each storyline, and I really think BioWare aced the class missions and did a great job with the missions in general. But once I get bored of this one aspect of the game, I don't see a reason to stick around. As much as it pains me to say it, it's how I truly feel - RP aside this game is totally mediocre.
