Look, what can it hurt to go in expecting it to be just another typical MMO, with all its bugs and playerbase that can't agree on anything, PvPers who constantly whine no matter how good the PvP is, and you won't disappointed.
So his second-hand sources are somehow less valuable than your second-hand sources. Oh, okay. I see how this thread works now.

Class quest, even my companion was dismissed. of course there was two NPCs to kill, both elites of course because elites = FUN according to BioWare I suppose... may also equal f2p soon

So basically, in your world, it's either fixed yesterday or it's just not fixed. Got it.

They're working on it. That will have to do. You seem to want it instantly or in the past. I'm not sure what your point is.

The problem is here, today. Now. Not tomorrow. My point is that they've spent way too much time trying to design a solution to a problem they should have already planned for.

We on the same page now?

So the solution either needs to be here today or it's worthless. Never mind planning! That's not a solution!

Do you see how stupid this is?

Your problem is that they screwed up in the past. Thanks Captain Hindsight. We all know this.

i love how Marrond is pretty much trolling just about everybody in this thread.

he's already claimed GW2 even in alpha testing stages was more complex and intutitve than SWTOR was.. a HALF YEAR after release.

lol this dude is laughing his butt off right now. Oh and GW2 will fail. because at this point in time its heralded as the second coming of Jesus. GW1 was total trash by the way. i couldn't even get past level 15 it was so terrible.

I'm sure there Devs are in full-blown panic mode, given the drastic decline in populations, as well as the hype surrounding Guild Wars 2.

No one said worthless. Well, except for you.

Planning is a solution to future problems. If you can't see how "stupid" it is for a developer to (and they've admitted this) spread the population so widely at the start and not have their solution ready to go when the (and they said this too) expected drop of concurrent users hit... then I simply don't know how else to explain it to you.

Oh, and you're welcome. Glad I could show you the light.
