Have patience..play solitare....go outside....(eek the big yellow ball burns!!)...it will be fixed in time.
I actually remember that in MxO. Despite all the glitches in the Matrix... I loved that game to death.

Ok. I have been informed that it is NOT ok to want to date a gamer chick. It is bad I am told. So any females in Ohio, if you happened to glimpse my previous post momentarily. Please DO NOT check out my facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/Hotbuddah7

Can we just agree that this magnitude slipup is unprofessional, and regardless of what has happened with other mmo's in the past, should be possible to catch and stop at release?

That's why it's so hard to get a group together to do a heroic. People will say, but it's morning wait till night, there will be more people on. Then they say yeah, it's night, but it's a weekday, just wait until the weekend there will be more people on. Then it's the weekend and still just crickets. How many people grinded a character on a dead server and then gave up on it?

Every MMO game is NOT like this. I think GuildWars has had a total of 16 hours of downtime in over 6 YEARS. One time a rare material was available from an npc for 0 gold for a few hours and they had to shut down and roll back. It took 4 hours to do so. They stream updates incrementally in the background, and have you log out and log in to install it. It takes 15 seconds to do so. In 6 years of GuildWars, I never experienced a single bug. Not one. All with no subscription fee. Just because you played WoW and they had issues at launch and they implemented fixes poorly doesn't mean SWTOR should be or has to be the same.

Why be accepting of all the downtime instead of demanding better? Wouldn't you prefer a bug free game with no downtime? Don't accept it as fact that this isn't possible.
Does GW really even compare in complexity to SWToR?

unfortunately no, there is NO way to tell if one line of code or a whole slew will cause issues on live servers..even when used on a test server first...the live ones are not exact dupes and well, this Can and does happen.

Seriously? SWTOR has -and I am not saying this in any sort of troll way... this is based on my experience- the least depth of any MMO i've played. It's a themepark. And that's fine... but yeah. Very little depth.
