Perhaps not, but the ones that came with the game (a small percentage of what the game has now) did take a decade to perfect. And I personally don't consider add-on functionality to be game features because Blizz didn't have to design or test them. Ask them how their home and yard got to looking so robust and they'll point you to their interior decorators and landscapers. Can find most of them on Curse.com. Get rid of Auctioneer/Auctionator and LOTRO has a better AH system than WoW. The GTN is a search field and pull-down menu away from being there.

Oh, Wow didn't have a single warzone until Gurubashi was patched in a month after release, and the first two BGs (AW & WG) weren't patched in until 7 months after release. For the record.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

Not much longer, there just isn't enough here. i will maybe be back when things get better, if they get better, but honestly, it is just as likely I will get caught up in whatever has my attention then and never bother. The problem is releasing games with the promise that they will be fleshed out after the fact. MMO's get more leeway on this than single player ones because of the scope of the project, but in SWTOR i think as nice as the voice acting and stuff is, too many other aspects of the game went underdeveloped I feel for that gimmick which after experiencing it doesn't add much in the replay. As a subscription service you have to continue to regularly produce new content, and SWTOR is still slowly struggling to get the game up to par, let alone add new stuff.

I was playing pretty devotedly until today when I just couldn't find any interest to play. My lvl 50 is lvl 50 so that's game over, and I have done pvp all over my alts to the point of nausea, since I can only play the same 3 Warzones so many times, even though I love the pvp. It is like pulling teeth to get a flashpoint or anything grouped going. Unfortunately interest just flat died, and almost out of no where, just suddenly I didn't want to play anymore. Losing that, I have no rose tinted glasses for SWTOR anymore, and don't want to spend any more time waiting for it to get better, when I honestly feel like they had plenty of time and budget to have made it alot better to begin with. So I cancelled today, and maybe I will be back, maybe I won't. No hard feelings, just not enough here.

This game doen't have the vaccum suck that WoW had on me back in the day. It took me months to level with my guild then a solid month gearing/keying everyone up then at least a year on the first tier raids. The game itself is great but I don't feel the same vaccum pull that I once felt. Most people I observe don't even play that much, and these are people leveling where the game should have its strongest pull

EDIT: I'm out on March 3rd. Maybe I'll come back if the legacy system is awesome or they put in a better method of finding groups.
Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun!
Then we shall cancel our subs in the shade!

next good game, and im gone. this game is horrible. 1/2 the time all I can think about is "I wish more people played Vanguard" ..

I mean I did my first raid last night. we wiped once. it was the second time for a few people .. but .. seriously? It took a month to kill Razorgore, first boss in BWL .. and I still remember his name .. I can't even tell you the name of any of the bosses I killed last night. The pants I got arent even really an upgrade for my companion because this game decided to give out epics for running around spamming the 1 key doing dailies.
x-server lfd tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.

I mean given what the game design here brings at its core. The VO, the story focus etc. Imagine that a few months from now they got it all sorted technically, and the game runs smooth as silk. Can you find a long term home at the republic or the empire fleets?

/Droidlife. Proud two month game card holder.
Until March 5 when my 1 month sub runs out. Happy with the game and my money spent but will not be paying them any more to develop content, there are just too many more mature alternatives out there nowadays.

I remember Soa... That's it. Just because it's so easy to remember. Other than that I don't remember any of the others.

* Illum is the best pvp expirience in my life
* We have countless Battleground types
* I love StarWars thats why I love playing ball
* Crafting is superior over any game I played before
* The Space Missions offer amazing pvp
* When you hit lvl 50 there is so much endgame content, it is amazing
* I love to crash doors with bombs...did I say that already
* I dont need any driveable AT-ST, combined ground and air in pvp would be boring
* World pvp is fantastic and it reminds of good ol Tarren Mill, we have even pvp raids
* Alterac Valley is small and boring in comparison to the pvp we have in swtor
* Group pvp is great, all the complainers are just whining
* Classes are all balanced otherwise you would see masses of just one or two class types
* Pure Shockfrozen Water owns

I think It is really obvious that Swtor is that tasty and great that I will swallow my game DVD.
This HAS to be a troll.

Subbed for six months, if they had offered a Lifetime I would have bought it on the spot.

I enjoy it. Lots. So do the other people in my guild. Lots. That's all that matters to me.
