It is one of the things that I like and dislike about Galaxies. Believe me I love having my guild's city and all the trimmings, but lets face it, you have to be well established in the game to get a city. Currently most servers are capped on Galaxies...  [Read More]

I wouldn't mind a "random encounter" where you shoot at incoming ships like we did in K1 and K2, but I really don't want crazy fancy space combat where I actually have to figure out how to fly around in "space". Hehe I do... it m...  [Read More]

Well I didn't replace anything, but even if I did I'm not sure why it would "scare the heck" out of you. The "Star Warsy and Iconic" thing was originally brought up by you - the quote I referred to was Smedley's line about the &qu...  [Read More]

I have to admit though, it scares the heck out of me that you can replace "For the longest time we were really struggling with crafting because it doesn't really feel right in Star Wars," with "For the longest time we were really st...  [Read More]

The whole non-heroic thing sounds disturbingly like the justification behind the NGE to me. You mean the "It's not Star Warsy and Iconic" idea? Personally I enjoy my killin time. But there are times when I really don't feel like killin. T...  [Read More]

For me, maybe make that saber look a lil smaller... any others, would depend on what makes it in game. I mean I used several mods before. Like the holster mod. But judging by the holstered sabre it looks like we might get lucky and they will include...  [Read More]

Tommycat makes a good point. Most of the low-population states vote Republican. If you make the individual votes from the larger population states count for the same as those with lower populations, Republicans lose. So we cannot allow that to happen...  [Read More]

I resent the remarks that because the person doesn't have a degree that they are not intellectuals, or are somehow anti-intellectual. I know quite a few people that don't have degrees, but are very intelligent. A degree is not a guarantee of intellec...  [Read More]

Personally I would rather have the monthly fee. Every free mmo I've played I got bored with very quickly. Of course the game itself has to be good from the start, but without a game to base it off of, all I can do is go by past experiences. I equate...  [Read More]

^^ I hope they do implement something like this, you make it sound very intriguing. As long as it isn't a completely random history that we have no control over, fine by me! I don't want to end up as a bada** Sith Lord with a fear of Gizka! :lol: K...  [Read More]

Well don't worry Katarn84, I'm sure you won't be alone in not buying the game. Me: I'm buying it. I'll get a month free with the purchase of the game(this is standard). That's the average time I spend with most new games I get. If the MMO is worth...  [Read More]

"The wait is over." I guess that it wasn't explicit, but a reasonable deduction could be made that it was directed at fans waiting for KOTOR III. I know that you had to be aware of that because you're a smart guy and could figure that out....  [Read More]

The only one that we KNOW survives the events of TSL is HK. He somehow found his way to Mustafart where his "mind" was trapped in an old republic ship. I kinda wish they would have set it only 500bby. That way it leaves thousands of years...  [Read More]

My biggest gripes with KotOR were that they weren't long enough. I wanted more. The first was complete, but just a bit too short. TSL was incomplete and short. That is the advantage of the MMO. It is able to have a huge long lasting story. Far greate...  [Read More]

It certainly does. Just as it has in the last two elections. Where have you been? Voter fraud isn't new. It isn't a 12 year old event. It's been a problem since before Kennedy(at least). It has been noticed more as of late, but the problem goes back...  [Read More]
