i am truly enjoying the game so far.

there are a lot of head scratchers in the game. It like 6 years ago bioware copied down what wow had and decided to develop.

if you look back to wow 6 years ago you can see swtor models alot of their game around it.

i think they locked the door and closed their windows and years later were like , we got a better version of wow int he star wars universe.

only they didn't pay attention to the advances mmo's made over the past 6 years. What's killing bioware is that the game really isnt innovative , if it came out 6 years ago it'd be amazing.

as it stands now, it's a fun rpg. There are alot of things i like that it does differently, but it's going to turn into the same;

farm dungeons, raids, heroics, pvp for gear. replace it every patch.

i was hoping for some more open elements and some non linear growth in the game.

So you bought a 60 dollar game to peruse a glitchy universe with fake currency. Sounds like it's worth it I guess.

I agree with the thread starter that the game is rough. There are a lot of bugs to the gameplay that make it feel "muddy." I dont really care about graphical glitches although I have had some doozies, at least three instances of walking around in nothing but a hot pink blur for 5 minutes until it resolves. The big ones are the heals not going through, bars not updating etc. those are bugs that create the frustration for players to quit.
Unlike those of you who say "stop crying and quit" I really dont want to see anyone quit because when people start quitting the game goes away. I would much rather see people voice their frustrations, stick with the game and let it be known what they dont like. I for one appreaciate the thread starters opinions and everyones opinions, if we get on the forums and let them know we are interested in the game, we just want some improvement, I legitimately see nothing wrong with that.

Nothing in my reply indicated that I "expected" anything from Biowre, LA and/or EA. Slathering a lack of understanding about how people willingly choose to spend their own money, regardless of what country they’re in, over an inability to make up your own mind about something so simple presents foggy logic.

It’s up to you whether or not to spend your money as opposed to pining on forum looking for someone else's justification to do so.

Weird.

I said it months ago. The game probably wouldn't of been ready with even an extra 6 months dev time. I've no idea WHAT bioware has been doing for 4 years.

I happen to think it's worth the money. THen again, I'm basing that off of my own experience, not some random persons OPINION on the internet.
