If this is true, I'd be really really angry.

Interesting find and thanks for the read. I am not quitting or throwing in the towel based on this. For me, its not worth quitting over. I am having a fine time in this game. I get an occassional stutter in the fleet zone but most of my load times are very reasonable. Since the fleet isn't a combat zone I don't really mind that my rig "stutters" once and then runs fine. It could very well be a paging issue and this isn't really a remote rendering service. I don't know the real answer but I am confident some of this will be worked out over the next few months. Def not worth quitting over, at least for me. If its enough for you to quit, then thanks for playing. Hopefully the next game brings you more success.

SWTOR has actually caused a safety shutdown due to heat on 3 ocasions. The only other time this ever happened was with the starcraft2 'no max fps' bug, which basicly had your system going nuts trying to render a billion frames per second. Personally, I've always felt that if running at max load causes you to overheat and thermal trip, it's a sign that your cooling can't dissipate the heat the part is putting out, and needs to be augmented somehow. Running hot is one thing, thermal tripping, assuming it's not like 90 degrees in your room or something, shouldn't EVER happen as a result of load. The only time I've ever thermal tripped a system, it was because I forgot to plug the CPU fan back in. Bloody ADHD... Similarly with laptops and throttling, not that the manufacturers care.
One day my body will be able to take my brain out in public without it embarrassing us.

Yeah, I am not resubscribing after reading this. Did they really think they could pull this off. What a joke.

Its quite a sad state of affairs really.
