My friend dose this to.. says there is nothing to do at end game is is gonna unsub today (at least he says he is, because of the start of lvl 50 pvp and him just hitting 50 on fatman.. his 6 or 7th lvl 50 dont know to many to keep track of) but has yet to do more then 1 hard mode anything never been in the ops, doesnt want to do dailies.. and complains about being bored.. he didnt do any of the live event.. all he does is level a character to max pvp get pissed off and make a different class.. well he has one of each now and multiables of the same on different servers

kinda sad IMO that he says there is nothing to do but he hasnt done anything except lvl and pvp he dosent even pvp while leveling.. when its still fun lol

and go figure.. hes bored with the game after spending 1100+ hours in the game in 4 1/2 months.. (average of 8 hours every day)


As for ETA on 1.3? i would say LATE may to mid june.. they said it would be alot faster then 1.2 was.. and really its now adding a ton of stuff... sure ranked warzones will be it but that is almost 100% done.. one of the main reason it was delayed was for cross server queues and those will be in 1.3 other then that i think its bug fixes and the legacy stuff in the preview tab.. and most of that stuff i'm sure is almost complete in the game now jsut not turned on

My guess is 1.3 will come out a couple of weeks before their Q1 results are due to be reported, about 3 months from now. This will help boost subs for the financial report.

They both will be flavor of the month, good for a few weeks, but then all the content available will be tackled and people will come back to the 'other game' because more people will be here, and newer content will be added here.
It has some randomed generated quests also .

he is right though..you know that right...

WoW was the mmo of it's time...

SWTOR is the mmo of this generation... It will just keep gaining more and more people and get bigger and better. PLUS it's in a GALAXY that is Star Wars. Not just one world. Blizzard screwed themselves on that one. Different worlds > one world
Always be who you are, not what the galaxy wants you to be

This is probably the most intelligent post in the thread. Bravo.

Some people are going to leave for GW2. There are people that knew even before SWTOR came out that it would just be a distraction until GW2. Bioware would be making a huge mistake trying to push out unfinished patch content to appease those glancing at other titles.

The best thing to do now is to make sure the finished content is quality content. Trying to shove out something half-finished in order to meet D3 and GW2 head-on isn't going to do anything but cause current players to rethink their commitment.

Finish the content Bioware. Whenever it comes out, even if it is not at the same time as D3 or GW2, finished content will have a more positive impact than subpar, unfinished content that was shoved out the door just to try and keep some people from trying other games.

1.1 came out around January 11th or so, and 1.2 came out almost exactly 3 months later. If they're serious about that, then I would expect early to mid June.
They did say that 1.3 would be much closer to 1.2 than 1.2 was to 1.1.

I doubt it - they said it would be done in less time than 1.2. With any luck It'll be out late this month or early next. However, if EA is pulling strings, then maybe.

I don't agree with this about either game. I never even played Guild Wars but I know a lot of people still play the first one. And D3. I mean... there's going to be a huge audience for that. I mean, just like any other game the population will drop off drastically within the first month. But the long-term player base (I'm thinking about a year for most people), will be much larger than people realize.

But, I think it has a lot less to do with content updates and stuff, and way more to do with whether people like the game or not. When you find your game, that's pretty much it.
