I was running an E8400 duel core, 8GB RAM, and a ATI 4870 in beta....and it ran fine, a few video glitches and such.

upgraded to a 6950, the rest is all the same, and I have all the settings jacked up, running 60 FPS.

The client is not the issue...

I had Some CTD issues while Zoning and some random CTD issues. Also one BSOD, changed up my RAM and the Game runs for hours without any issues. The Problem are hundreds of different hardware combinations that need to work. There will always be some issues at the start. And most errors will be caused by user Error or hardware/driver issues.

The Engine still has room for improvements when it comes to performance but i never played a launch MMO that was as stable as TOR.

Don't get me wrong im not saying its everyone having these issues, it isn't there are players who are reporting no problems with both old and new rigs, but the majority of the players who I have spoken to and read on the forums are having these issues, atleast enough to warrant some serious concerns about the swtor client.

You can pretend the issues are not there all you want, fact is they are and for many players, if they care about there game they need to communicate how there planning to solve these issues.

Saying its all on your end go fix yourself or blaming it all on user error is not going to make this go away. Communicate and admit to the issues and we can go from there.

Thanks. o7 o/
You do realize the number of players who even use this forum are a tiny minority of the playerbase in general?

Now factor in that the number of people on the forum with BSOD and other serious tech issues are a tiny minority of the forum users...

So out of the entire playing community you can see that the actual number of players with serious tech issues is tiny.

This would suggest that each case IS based on individual hardware issues and/or bad drivers etc.

Which means it IS down to the users PC and not BW's game software.

No it won't. Please don't act like a intellectually challenged person and actually read a thread before posting a reply.

I guess I will be classified as a troll but before you blame the client maybe post how you determined it is the client...for example:

1) Checking what caused the BSOD and STOP code:
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

2) Analyze the crash dump with windows debugger:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/wind...dware/gg463009

3) Reinstalled the latest driver for your chipset/GPU/NIC

4) Ran memtest AT LEAST for 1 hour:
http://www.memtest.org/

5) Ran Prime95 for AT LEAST 1 hour:
http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=103

6) Scanned for malware using AV of your choice (personally would use Malwarebytes/Spybot/CCleaner combo)

7) If all else fails and these issues still happen you reinstalled your Operating System, reinstalled latest drivers, installed the client

Now if you have done all of this and the Client is crashing you system by all means seek answers from Bioware. However if all you have done is simply run other games and they work good it is rather ignorant to assume Swtor client is immediately to blame.

PS: Not enough sleep this post is probably filled with spelling/grammatical errors I am too tired to proofread

Here's what I don't think people trying to offer help don't understand. A lot of people (including myself) on this thread are only experiencing BSODs with SWTOR. Why should I believe I have a bad stick of RAM when all the other games I have played on my system haven't caused a single BSODs while in the last week I've experienced SIX BSODs while playing SWTOR.

No problems here at all. Your issues are likely not Bioware caused.

alot of these responses really make me not like this game that much more. so much blind fanboyism. i know i know, no one cares and i should go back to wow (even though i havent played wow in years). all the responses are the same, you guys are sad. we cant even have a decent discussion without "duuuuuuhhh!!!! not me!! i no have problems you must be stooopid!! durrrr!! /drool"

seriously, go back and read what you guys have said. i see jaded eyes, a half smile and a little burst of schmucky euphoria inside yourselves as you spew your ignorance.

ah the masses....
