I would like to add that I am waiting for chat bubbles.

I wonder how many more threads we would have about people griping about performance and the game engine with they added chat bubbles..

If they do add them.. They should be default off and then come with a disclaimer when you turn them on.. Not that anyone would read the disclaimer..

I for one don't care one way or the other.. As long as I can turn them off, that is all that matters.. I hated them in WOW... I can't see how that will be any different here..

For actual in-game interactions they help, otherwise you may as well be using a seperate chat program.
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

Once again, how is it SWG could do almost all the things people are complaining about BACK THEN, and Bio/EA can't do it now???!!! I really miss that game...

So do I. I sincerely hope SWTOR takes on at least a few SEG features: chat bubbles and camp sites would be simple additions that would add so much...

But see here is the issue.. That is strictly your opinion.. I am sure you are getting on just fine with the current ingame chat system.. Which is my point..

You make it sound like you all are handicapped because there is no chat bubble.. If that is the actually the case, then you have my sympathies.. Such limited options for communication can't be healthy..

By the way.. I actually do use another chat program for my gaming.. It is called Ventrilo.. My guildies and I chat with eachother everyday..

SWG never had over 500k player subs.. For the last 4 years it was active it had less than 100k subscriptions.. Lets hope this game doesn't do a lot of things that game did.. This game was never meant to be SWG 2.0.. Let's not try to make it that..

See for yourself..

I wonder how many more customers they have to lose before they fix their crappy engine and get working features in the game that were in MMOs a decade ago

proves you have no idea why this feature is needed. . .and you're just another 'dont put it in the game because I dont need it' person

grow up kid, there's more people playing this game than just you. I dont even CARE about chat bubbles nor would i use them or anything. But I know it's is a highly requested feature by the RP community. Not like 1-2 people in the community, just about ALL of them
