When will this game be playable?

Hello, I purchased SWTOR a month or so ago, thinking the game was finished and playable (like many others), but it soon became apparent that the game is not yet finished and still in a Beta like state. I would just like an estimation of when the game will be finished? By finished I mean when will the game be playable for a full hour with no significant bugs or glitches.

Basically I'm wondering when the game will be up a state where a normal/competent company would release the game.

at the current rate at things happen, id say in 2005 or something like that.
see, every fix thats pushed out, breaks new things.
I would guess the game was flawless before they started to fix things that wasnt broken in the first place.

You would guess wrong. There's no such thing as a flawless game.

Well, now (for me) which isn't a helpful comment in your case, I know - I realise that some people are having problems (and, to be fair, it seems to be a higher percentage than I'd like) but the majority seem to be OK.

What problems are you encountering?

That's what I'm thinking, I've already waited almost 2 months and the game is still bug ridden trash.

If you'd ever gamed in the 90s you'd know what truly unplayable games are like. TOR is not unplayable.

I won't deny that it has its issues and bugs of course, but these take time to fix. And I do believe that it could have used a few more months in development. But I guess EA forced it out because of the holidays...
