Will you try to get to 55 during the 5 day early access....

Actually it is a proven fact from past MMO's that those that rushed to max level during the regular game and expansions were the first to race to the forums and whine there was nothing to do and that said company was horrible etc..

with my main toon yes, but it depends if there is a 55 pvp bracket in addition to a 50 bracket, or if the 50 bracket is extended to 50-55.

my other toons ill probably take my time with

I agree. The story is nice, but the number one reason I play an MMO is to play with other people. Call me crazy but I though this was supposed to be a multiplayer game. The issue is this game fights against you so much while leveling it's like a single player game. So the only time you really get to play with others is at endgame. So I tend to rush to max level for no other reason than it is the only time I am on the same page with all my friends and we can play together. Hopefully they will add some sort of level adjusting system soon, but until then if I want to take my time through a single player campaign, there are far better options than SWTOR out there.

This will be the guy that, 2 days after ROTHC comes out, he'll be complaining in the forums there's nothing to do, lol

I'll play the new stuff, but my goal isn't to just hit 55 as fast as possible. I want to enjoy the stories and missions and hopefully get some much needed fun in the game. Hitting level 55 will happen naturally as a result of doing all that.

Maybe he'll have time to go back to school and learn to spell "Couldn't care less".

i fully expect to get to lvl 55 in a day or 2 at max as there is no class story, its basically a normal planet that we run into as we go from 1-50. Who cant do 5 lvls in a day or 2 ?

Yep, I'm collecting XP boosts and everything. If the story is the same for every class I'll have 3 or 4 other characters I can enjoy it on... maybe. I would rather be in the first wave of max levels with my main.

Well in this game they were the first one's farming Champion gear and farming gear off of low level suckers in warzones for 4 months or whatever.

Well... many of our guildies have pre-purchased so... no, I won't try to cap again in 5 days, but it might happen naturally as I play the content with them. It really depends on work, RL, etc. etc. FPs and Ops will also have an impact.

However, I can say most assuredly that some peeps will fly through the content and will be 55 on the first official day of launch. They can't help themselves.

If players made it from 1-50 in the week of early access for ToRs launch I dont see how anyone would have to *try* and get from 50-55 in 5 days. Seems like it would happen without trying tbqh!
