We estimate that it will take us at least 5 more months of internal testing to get it perfect. Or we could release it now in near perfect condition and use the data from millions of subscribers to help squash these bugs. In the end, we'll be done in half the time and you'll get to play the nearly finished produck 6 months earlier, what would you rather we did"

Do you really expect ANYONE on these or any other forums to believe that you would have told us to wait? When you play an MMO at launch, you know(or should if you aren't retarded) that every MMO in history is released as soon as possible and that they are never quite done. Therefore by buying it week one you are agreeing to deal with these bugs until they are gone. It's that simple now stop whining and go play WoW it's virtually bug free.
Problem is, releasing a game with a seriously crappy and bugridden game-engine isn't exactly a wise thing to do.

Well the person I was talking to only talks boss fights where I was talking about group content as a whole.. Tank and Spank is where you dont need any other tactics.. Like in other MMORPGs if you didnt use things like some kind of crowd control ability your group would die... Where with SWTOR you dont even really need crowd control abilities and it really doesnt even matter if the DPS takes aggro.. Its so easy you can just keep fighting through it with the healer being a little stressed.. Thats tank and spank..

With alot of the content you can have some BH AOE everything down mindlessly while the DPS does the same and the healer just heals...

Also, welcome to ignore.
Sorry I should have realized that when 1 person has an issue, everyone has an issue.

My bad.

According to the so called AV guy the engine is perfectly fine.
I guess not every one can see the Gorilla in the room.
Stephen Reid - 9:02a.m. - January 11th 2012 - because in reality, there was never supposed to be a 'Medium' choice - that was a bug.

Why do people start saying others say a game is perfect when they disagree?

Are the dramatics really necessary? It's not hard to get a job with a publisher if you have experience btw. You talk like it's this impossible thing...heck QA work is even entry level.

Meh whatever.

You say that as though the game is an unplayable mess, which is utterly, patently incorrect.

They don't that is what you make out of it.
I think most people will agree this engine is the wisest choice for various reasons.
Just like many claim this game has some game breaking bugs.

Yet you see to see no flaw in it, it just seems you're leaning a bit to the extreme side.
It's alright though but it doesn't add a lot of constructive posts form your side.

Look, I'm going to have to stop talking to you. You keep putting words in my mouth. I will not argue with a troll anymore.

You are welcome for the lesson on publishers though.

I don't know how much clearer this can be said but every single MMO launches with bugs.
I think you should read what he writes, it's the engine it self that is being the problem.
You can't fix most of that.
It has nothing to do with bugs in the game.

Indeed let's end this conversation.
You don't seem to read what most people write, or at least your interpretation seems off.
I honestly think you're an annoying troll but I suppose the feeling is mutual.
