People have a right to complain about what they want and what they don't want. It gives bioware insight into how to make their game better.

However, you have to be able to look past all the whining, crying, QQ'ing, rage quitters that distort good ideas and valid complaints with ugly temper tantrums.

I enjoy this game very much even after I have been playing it on a subpar computer. The story is amazing. gameplay is nice. I am not worried about if I get through all the endgame, there is always stuff to do. You can just get more and more geared, make your character stronger and stronger. Plus once I get my new computer, I will be getting heavy into pvp. And raids are always fun to repeat. I can't think of how many times I repeated Icecrown Citadel, Black temple, Karazhastan (spelling?), Trial of the Crusader, Naxxrammus, Ulduar, etc... Endgame content never gets old for me on an MMO, can't wait to tank the operations that are currently available.

Actually it's probably not. For an entire guild (were there more than two people in the guild at the time I wonder?) to quit over such issues just s few months into the game smacks of group hysteria rather than rational decision making. I would say that of my experience ONLINE almost the entirety of the players enjoy themselves. It only tends to be those with an axe to grind that lurk on these forums rather than actually play the game that feels Bioware owe them the ultimate uber awesome MMO.

Remember one person's fail is probably many more peoples win. They just don't see the need to voice their opinions all the time.

Folks who like to post on forums are more likely to complain, for various reasons. For some, they like to ***** and moan. For others, they want to post something, and it's simply easier to list flaws in the system rather than sing its praises. So they do that.

For my experience, the game is very good, and very well-crafted. There were bugs, sure. But relatively few, compared to virtually every other MMO I've tried (SWG, Horizons, CoH, Champions). Perhaps others come from a background of games that had fewer bugs. That or we're back to the ************ and moaning.

Even the endgame was far more well-developed than I expected. Perhaps not as finely-honed as WoW's endgame, but then the folks at Bioware haven't had over seven years to perfect their craft. That said, the ops I've done, both normal and hardmode, have been engaging.

I do not play on a heavy server population server (Space Slug), but it hasn't cramped my style much, save that it's harder to get groups for fps than I'd like. I hear they're going to put in a cross-server lfg tool to help with that, so hopefully it won't be an issue as much in the future.

The most important word is patience. Four whole months in. Four months.
As I told you in another thread dear Hexe. If there would be time for patience people would be patient. Seriously - they were in many games before - problem is the game isn't out back then when MMO were blooming one after another. Today here's tight competition so you'd rather be quick or be dead. Every one of us who still care want better for the game, the only thing diffrent is that some see the tsunami comming and others are watching in another direction taking sunbath. I'm 100% sure they will add new content, etc. but they don't have much time. It's not time of WoW vs Lineage 2 vs Guild Wars (3 completely diffrent games) vs bunch of cheap asian mmo. Patience is a great thing. Believe me, in my life and job patience plays the most important part. But you must acknowledge that market isn't patient. So let's hope for the best and better if this "best" will make it in time actualy

I don't know, I play it and I have 12 alts to take up my time. I love the game and believe it will just get better with time. My only sorrow with the game is that I will have to give it up for school, whereupon I will be playing it only on weekends. I've tried to go back to LOTRO and DDO, but they lack everything this game has. I think the complainers just have nothing better to do in their lives.
CE For SWTOR and lovin it!

Like many of the posters here, and perhaps the readers, I have enjoyed the leveling process from 1 to 50.

I even have a number of alts going now, and am enjoying the pvp on offer. Overall I like what is available in this game, and hope for future development to really bring it up.

However, there are two really bad things about this game. Lack of population beyond Fleet and the starter worlds, and lack of awe-inspiring, epic atmosphere during the story elements or upon entering cities/environments.

Despite the "story", which is good mostly, there is an extreme feeling of being alone in the world. The planets for the most part, are deserted. Apart from the starter world, Coruscant, and fleet (where u regularly see populations over 100), I have not seen population above 15 on any other world. It is like I am questing in a ghost town. Since Alderaan, I rarely see populations above 10....I think this may highlight the over instancing of the game, but in any case this is ridiculous. I hardly ever see anyone, even during peak time !!!!

Secondly, whilst I enjoy the story for the most part. I do not get the "epic" feeling when we complete a chapter or defeat one of the many story-line quest bosses, nor do I feel the atmosphere and awe when I enter a city or environment. Its a massive let down. The cut scenes for Consular on Correllia for example, strike me in particular just how far the developers have failed to capture this. You are lauded at the end of your quest for being so great in front of a non-existent audience, with total lack of atmosphere, making a speech full of one-liner gimmicks.

My 2-cents.
