Newsflash: GW2 is a generic fantasy garbage compared to SWTOR.

The scrolls fortold of it's coming. Of the time after the Rifts closed and the Guild Wars ended.When the sons of Casual and Hardcore would spill their own Mountain Dew.

The Elder Scrolls Online.

It was fortold.

This has much more effect if you listen to this while reading your post.
No one hates Star Wars as much as "Star Wars fans"

The game is okay but it feels like a 2005-MMO.
This! All of it, including the RIFT thing.

What does ctrl+shift+F measure?
AH I didn't know that, thank you for the information.

Without the design template, there would be nothing to optimize.

MMO's get hyped up by the Fans and the Dev's when it comes out and is not what they think it was they get flamed. Every MMO I played (it is a long list UO, EQ, EQ2, SWG, AOC, LOTRO and so on.......) has people flame it after it. This well happen in GW2 and every MMO after it. I plane on getting GW2 and play it but I am also going to keep playing TOR. With GW2 being free to play I can do it.

No, what I am stating is that, certain types of MMOs with greater graphical requirements like SWTOR and AIon, etc... require much larger bandwidth than your typical online game, like WAR, WoW, etc...

Some ISPs simply will not allow you Bandwidth that large.

Turn down your specifications, and I assure you, you will be able to play just fine.

I do, many others do, hell people can even livestream SWTOR on max.

Now I agree there are definite problems with both the engine(Seriously BW what's with the masses of particle effects, etc... everywhere?) and FPS, but they can be circumvented, and don't destroy this game as you claim it does.
Again, there are no problems with my ISP, I can assure you that. Because again, I would have had the same performance issues in TERA and Rift as examples. I doubt SWTOR is a huge exception, and if it is, I strongly wonder why.

I'm not saying the game is unplayable.

I'm saying that with the components I have in my computer, I expect more performance in a MMORPG "GPU/CPU-intensed" game like SWTOR. There are still no issues with other MMORPGs, only SWTOR.

And like I said in my huge quote, it's how Bioware treats the issue that disgusts me and makes me hate them. I LOVE THE GAME. I hate the company's behaviour behind it with good reasons.

Where is this majority you speak of?

There are thousands of posts in the Horrid FPS thread. That's statistics.

But there is no proof that "the majority of people" don't have issues.

Either they don't know about it or they just can't be arsed to report it in. The last statement is an assumption

I enjoy the game. I enjoy it tremendously. That being said, I don't care how this game does financially. That isn't my job. I also know it isn't going anywhere. Warhammer Online has way less people playing it and it isn't shut down. Less people online in this game means that it runs more smoothly for my guild. We have fun together. It's BioWare's job to make sure people keep playing this game, not mine.

Right, but anyway, you got good FPS or a least playablity in Ilum with at least 20 v 20 going on?
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?
