If SW:TOR 2012 would have all the features that WoW 2012 does, it would come out in 2014.

At which point it would be compared against WoW 2014, which means that SW:TOR would have to come out in 2015, which means that SW:TOR would yet again be have to be postponed ad nauseam


looks familiar?

It's Zenos paradox aka "Achilles and the turtle"

Now please, go ahead and tell me how something as simple as a combat log was not included in the shipped product is ok.
No what people are complaining about is that it doesnt have features that wow has within it, Combat log is in the game, it was in beta and is simply turned off. Bioeware have said they have disabled it and they did this on there own choice.

UI customization is coming in no ?. cross realm lfg is coming in no ? the myriad of other things are coming in. so what people are complaining about is what isnt in the game yet.

Nothing I listed are under "Health and Safety" regulations. You are a bad troll, really.

Intermittent wipers. What regulation does that fall under?
Leather seating. What regulation does that fall under?
Nav system. Regulation?
Power Steering. regulation?

LOL, none, my friend. You are deliberatly being difficult!

FYI - It was turned off because it wasn't working properly.

Leather seats are optional extras, sat nav optional extras, power stearing optional extras.

Intermitent wipers, Law, must have 2 set speeds by law not including turned off, under uk law, under the mot regulations and under dvla regulations.

FYI there is a combat log and we cant see it, the system works because you hit something and the system knows how much you hit it for, just because we dont get a read out doesnt mean its not there. good try sparky.

That was 2004. This is 2012. You can't compare SWTOR and WoW launches. The times and industry are completely different. If you want to make an apt comparison, try Rift.

Ray, you failed to deliver my possibility space.
