Why do people want to belittle a game that is less than a month old in the market? Do you get joy out of ruining such games for the whole gaming community? Have you really ever tested a new game out. I am sorry 2004 till now not much has changed. This game is AWESOME. Enough said.

So please if you do not like this game then simply leave. Honestly no one really cares about your opinions on a game you hardly played period. Sorry but i am tired of it with every game that comes out that defies WOW people are out to destroy it. Do you realize if SWTOR is a success it will make WOW better too? NOOOOOOO most of you don't think so I doubt it. You may not say your not talking about wow. Who are you fooling? Yourself or us? So please if you have suggestions to make the game better than please go ahead use the correct channels to do so.

That is the problem with fanboyz, they believe and expect EVERYONE that has something bad , new ideas to improve or complains about bugs, all hate the game.

They dont expect people actually want the game to improve and wish that the game becomes better.

But this guy I quoted is just parnoid. Thinking everyone is coming from WoW and over here to destroy SWToR. O.o

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.
Go ahead and throw around the "stupid card" to make yourself sound reasonable.

I'm not "slathering a lack of understanding". This is not a debate of how people spend their money. This is a debate of why this game is advertised and released as a fully functional 60 dollar game when it clearly is not.

I don't have an "inability to make up my mind". I made up my mind to buy the game because the story elements in the game sounded very interesting and (beware, I'm going to use that word you hate) assumed that the gameplay/UI (the basics) was functional because the CD was on a shelf. Don't bring up other games like Skyrim because I'm upset about that game too

And I can't even begin to understand how my logic is foggy at all. You are the type of person that let's companies get away with this **** so these buggy games keep getting released and rushed out the door to have us unwitting consumers to spend our hard earned money on.

Fix your writing style before you argue. Sounding like you have a thesaurus open when you talk doesn't help your case or make you sound superior.

My bug tolerance is always higher the more fun I'm having with a game. Or if they have lots of unique, never done before features.

If bugs are really bothering me, I always ask myself if it's because I'm getting bored?

Well if that is the case BioWare needed to man up Blizzard style.

There are some problems with bugs and with the gameplay itself, but I am still enjoying myself. I do not agree that it is not ready for prime time. It is stable for me , I experience relatively few crashes and have experienced solo play, heroic, flashpoints, warzones, space missions and found them very entertaining. But stability issues must be fixed ASAP and there are some things requested by the playerbase such as customizable UI, dual spec, and some other things. Also when server population stabilizes, hopefully we can get free server transfers as many of use created many toons to cope with server queues.

I think that's heavy handed. Considering you do not develop games, I think it's fair to say you don't know **** about deadlines and the game industry., Thanks.

There is only so much testing that can be done with software as complex as a mmo/game. Eventually you just need to release it.

That being said there is no way to catch/predict every bug that could possibly arise when going from a beta test server to a live server with thousands more people.

As to the priority, not all bugs/glitches are easy to fix, first they need to be able to reproduce the bug, then figure out exactly which line of code (among millions) has the problem and fix it, while at the same time, ensuring that fixing the said line won't affect lines of code else where in the program. This is a never ending, thankless job.
