That TOR image is not at max settings. If it is, the image was taken before the textures were fully loaded. My game at max settings looks nothing like that. Are you a little slow or just trolling?

I'm fairly surprised at the major "Explaination" we were given on this graphic quality issue and I actually feel like I'm being treated as an idiot.

Yes yes WE know very well why MMOS cannot have single player standard graphics.
WE also know what STANDARDS it can achieve, and honestly, a game released on
Decemember 2011, with all that funding pushed into it? I am very very disappointed.

A lot of people's looks like this. No not everyone will have texture problems, but it is obviously a huge issue.

I see exactly what he's talking about. Texture popping is also a huge issue

Now look in the mirror and say that out loud. Because what was in that screenshot is what many people are experiencing at max settings. And I don't mean people with POS computers either, so you can stick that one up Ohlen's rump.

I sometimes get texture pop-in on initially loading after logging in, but on max settings with forced AA (in-game AA doesn't work for me), there is not a single texture in the game that looks like what he posted, for me. Even in the gear preview window.

He was using it troll. If others are having an issue with their textures looking like that on max settings, then they should be over on the technical support forums discussing it.

If the textures are fine for you, why are you even in this thread?

BioWare care to elaborate what you mean by "higher fidelity graphics" ?

Wait wait wait.. Let me try to understand this.

So a massive "explanation" was given by Bioware.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but all in all in comes down to this.
"Because there are there are too many players, the server or system cannot handle
high res graphics."

Once again correct me if I'm wrong..
on an even shorter summary..
"Working as intended."

I'm not trying to hate on the game, but the explanation is nothing but an excuse.
Because honestly, WOW had better textures, so did many others in terms of
character models.
Right now I am worried we can NEVER get high res textures, because HeroEngine
might as well be renamed to zeroengine, it is a mess.

On a side note, my browless Twi'lek Jedi upon Dark 3 onwards grew eyebrows, they changed the entire complexion that I originally used.. What is up with that?

Wow so we will never get high res textures. Im ok with it because the game looks good to me but this does kinda suck, even though I dont really care.
