You people crack me up seriously. Don't you understand how this day of age of gamer's think like yet?

Let me enlighten you,

A. Impatience: This is 90% of the problem with young gamers these days. Alot of gamers these days don't want to wait around for anything, it's either perfection or nothing.

B. Expectations: This is a immature mistake alot of this gamers make. You expect it to be this, you expect it to be that, and then when your expectations come short, BAM YOU ARE UPSET! With time like a fine wine you learn to not have expectaions in life, and try to appreciate the small things.

C. Knowledge: Yep I said it, I am a old mmo gamer and have been doing this since EQ and DAOC. I know when I see success and failure, and I know when I see a crowd of people that have no clue how to look for things that make success in a mmo. I have played since the 80's on a computer, am 35 years old, and know when I see people barking and complaining too much.

I will explain what SWTOR has at date FEB 27 2012,

1. Warzones

2. Open World PvP

3. Raiding

4. Guilds

5. Community

6. Fans

7. Content and Lore

8. Crafting

9. Space combat

10. A bright future

Summary: We are at the end of 2 months, and this mmo is a blockbuster among the best so far. In later months all these problems you see now will be gone, and Bioware will continue to fix and add stuff along the way. You can't argue that this game has room for improvement, and has a outstanding future ahead of it.

When reading someones opinion on the status of TOR have a look at their join date first, if it's before late 2011 chances are they're a devout star wars fan looking at the game through rose colored glasses and in their eyes TOR can do no wrong.

No offense is intended and it is a generalization, but for the same reason i wouldn't go running up to Dallas Cowboys fan and ask them what the best football team is, i won't be paying to much attention to your opinions on the status of TOR when they are clearly biased.

For those of you with no desire to read a wall of text, he's basically that old guy saying "back in my day we didn't have this"

Well guess what, those days are GONE. WoW has been king for SEVEN YEARS. This game is essentially WoW. It's 2012. Why should we have low expectations from a genre that is getting bigger and bigger? Why should we expect it to be so far below even WoW's quality, especially after SIX YEARS of development? The game is essentially WoW but with less content, fewer features etc. MMO blockbuster? Really? The game is LOSING subs, not gaining them. This game is nothing special, it's a generic clone. Thus far the devs have done nothing to inspire confidence.

Qft. It's really rather sad that people can't be realistic.

1. Warzones. Yeah, a whole 3 of them, and that's pretty much the only PVP content currently available.

2. Open World PVP. BWHAHA. Nice one!

3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 don't even deserve their own points - did you need fillers? I mean seriously... guilds, content, community, fans? Why not add tree's and wookies to that list? Or what about Ilum? lol

and as for 10... time will tell.

And for those crying about premades....really??? Sure its fun to test yourself against other good groups no argument with you there but it was the joy of randomly running into them on the open field that made it so much fun not this stupid ranked WZ ****. Big deal you go into a WZ knowing your facing a premade ooooooo. Try just running around in a huge open PvP area and then the 2 of you just happen to run into each other thats when you really see who the better group is.

I stopped right there, you are comparing and when you compare then you fail. Your exceptions are set too high, therefore you are blinded.

When you decide to not to compare then talk to me, until then look at SWTOR the way that suits u.

But don't feed BS.
