The first issue of the new comic, Blood of the Empire, was released today. You can read it here (http://swtor.com/news/news-article/20100423_001). This looks promising to me. Instead of the 3-panel releases we got in Threat of Peace, these are comin...  [Read More]

Did you just imply that Blizzard is going to release something in a timely fashion, and that they would pass up the opportunity to screw with another game's release? Inadvertently......  [Read More]

As others have stated, I also believe the release date will be (at the earliest) Spring of 2011, as we've been told. In addition to what BioWare/EA has said about the targeted release date, I also think the 2011 release date makes sense because it w...  [Read More]

This is what I could make of the Aurebesh: The last Gormak must not die Shrine of Hea? FYI - The Gormak are described on the page as the natural inhabitants of Voss. I'll keep trying to figure out what the rest of the 2nd one reads. **EDIT** I t...  [Read More]

We’re thrilled to announce not only the next planet to be featured in Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ but also a planet never-before-seen in the Star Wars™ mythos: Voss. Looks pretty cool, and the Voss Mystics sounds pretty interesting as well...  [Read More]

Good points - all taken. I have joined a guild that I feel fits me and my expectations well. I learned about it through a highly respected member on LF. I was just curious to see others' perspective on how guilds work and the associated benefits. Tha...  [Read More]

My opinion might change during the game, but as of now I have very little desire for the social networking piece of it. I really don't plan on playing the game unless, well, I'm playing the game. I joined a guild for the first reason you mentioned a...  [Read More]

I'm new to MMOs, and really have been inherently opposed to them because pay-to-play doesn't work for a (very) casual gamer like myself, and because the most important factor to me in any game is story. I am 100% sold on TOR, however (being a huge Ko...  [Read More]

Those are all really good points. I remember when I read the Bane novels (I've only read the first 2 - waiting for paperback for #3 in Sept I think) that I definitely noticed Karpyshyn's references to elements of K1 and K2. You can really tell he lov...  [Read More]

Sasuna - I've been avoiding posting on this thread b/c of the inane arguments you've made and, yes, the lack of punctuation bothers me too - but I think you're just kind of looking for someone to agree with your opinion of the TOR vs. K3 issue. Here...  [Read More]

And earlier you spoke of a game that would say what happened to Revan and the Exile like TOR couldn't do that. Revan was a very famous figure, I'm sure he'll still be remembered a mere 300 years down the road. BioWare has even said we'll find out wha...  [Read More]

A stupid decision IMO, they would be increasing their profits by making it a multi-platform game. I disagree. Making it a multi-platform game would increase revenues, but not necessarily profits. In fact I'd guess that it would almost definitely not...  [Read More]

You suck LA. Now I will have no way of getting TOR unless I purchase a better computer that's meant for gaming. You might need a better computer, but I don't think you'll need one "meant for gaming". I'm pretty much unaffected by this n...  [Read More]

Yeah I don't think it was totally restricted during the TOR era, but at least frowned upon based on the resistance Bastila tried to show against Revan in K1. Of course, she couldn't really resist Revan, being the panty-dropper she was....  [Read More]

I think being able to buy cool things kind of cheapens the experience of earning them through gameplay, but at the same time I don't really care. My experience won't be cheapened if I choose to not buy anything....  [Read More]

I'm not too familiar with pets in MMOs, since I haven't played an MMO before, but my general understanding was that they were actually used in the game and served more than cosmetic purposes. For example if you had a hunter or ranger class they could...  [Read More]

I will only play either of these classes after I've finished 1 force-wielding class from each side (most likely Sith Inquisitor, followed by Jedi Consular). Between the two I'm leaning toward Bounty Hunter. I only hope I have enough time/dedication t...  [Read More]

Jedi will probably be the 2nd class I play, after Sith Inquisitor. I'll probably go with a Consular, given the hints we've been dropped so far. The Consular has some interesting Aurebesh on the Holonet page. I'm all about story....  [Read More]

I also like Carth better. I never found him annoying either, and when I played TSL, I couldn't help but thinking that Atton was a sequeled-version of Carth....  [Read More]
