Damn i LOL'ed....i played Rouge Squadron for years....and yes you hit the nails head there.

I understand some of the Fanboys....the game is at times so great, that you forget the graphics, but it really is a shame....it's like putting wheelbarrow wheels on a lamborghini

I have a high end computer, so at MAX im running 60+ fps...even with LOADS of people in the same room...this game could take a upgrade with no problems at all !!

Sounds like you can't post preview pics on this board

Well at least you can click on each to see them.

Edit : editing links because they only display the preview pic

Had the same problem, turned everything to LOW, restarted the game, turned everything to HIGH and restarted again. Now I see beautiful, detailed textures, no more "fuzzy and washed out". Seems the client sometimes ignores the settings and loads the low quality textures.

First of all...I got in last night, plus I was in the beta....I played and played and played.....great game....but I am one of the people that really has a problem with bad graphics...for me it can be game breaking.

And to make things clear....I like the art stile and the models, so it's not a question about that.

I forgot to take some screenshots of what I’m talking about, but it's old news to many of you.

Some of the textures are ok I guess, but when you get close to a rock or a ship or a building, textures look really fuzzy and washed out...and no..iI'm not looking at it with a magnifier..it's easy to see the low quality.

This is something you would expect from a game from 2000-2004 (Texture wise).

I just don’t get it. Yes they want everyone to be able to play the game, but what about the rest of us.

It's like saying... "Not all can buy a great looking sports car, so now people can only buy small cheep a** cars".....that’s fine...but what if someone wanted to buy that sports car..should he not have the option ?

If SWTOR had a ULTRA option in graphics settings....then we could use that, and people with problems could turn it down. At middle settings the game would look like it does now ??

I love the game, but graphics are just ..... OLD.

Hope this will change in a Patch...even AA and AF would be a big help (Yes you can turn it on in the .ini file...but still)

Sorry for the rant...just think it's crazy thinking from a company like BioWare

Am i really the only one... (Expecting a lot of short posts saying..."YES")

Any way....see you in game
You must be new to MMOs. As an online game, MMOs are always years behind the current peak of graphics quality, so less information is being transferred over internet connections, and so people with lower-end computers can still play. Using the best graphics would cause too much internet lag in an online game.

well...first of all....when you look at SWTOR zoomed out...everything looks great (like moste of your links. Second...these are small thumnails....try blowing them up in 1080p....thid. if you take just one of them..eks. this http://thumbnails65.imagebam.com/161...4161521544.jpg then yes it looks ok...but if you walked over to the Rocks on the right, they would look like something from a 3d game from early 2000....fuzzy with dirt rock color.

i think it's great that people like it, but there are the group out there that buy big machines because graphics actually is a big part of games today... for RP'ers it's an imersion factor. For Graphic geeks it's an WOW factor...and so on...plus you would just expect more from a product of this magnitude !!

How exactly are textures and graphic assets, which are installed on your HDD responsible for lag? By your logic the game also shouldn't have voice acting since it too would strain peoples connections.

Besides, and this was pointed out multiple times, the graphics wouldn't seem as bad if everything looked equally low-res. Instead you have jarring high-res textures right next to crappy environmental ones.

It's an MMO, an online game, it's just not going to have the best graphics for that reason. If you want great graphics you have to play offline games. It's just the way it's always been with MMOs.

This game seriously needs a dx 11 and hi res texture pack.
