Maybe picking between like three planets you could go to in your class quest would be cool. Like start off on starting planet and then you can decide where you want your class story to branch off to, either planet a b or c.

Well it is a little different between Republic and Empire side which planets you visit, IIRC my order went something like this:
For my BH I went: Hutta, Dromund Kaas, Balmorra, Nar Shadda, Tatooine, Alderann, Taris
While my JK went: Tython, Coruscant, Taris, Nar Shadda, Tatooine, Alderann, Balmorra

There are huge areas on each planet which go waay beyond the suggested levels. The empire and republic suggested routes change slightly. Starting planets depend on your basic class.

I don't know, I wasn't in a hurry to hit 50. I'm 47 Sage right now and 25 Scoundrel and we've played quite a lot to get there that fast. If you're not hardcore it could take you several months to hit 50. However that seems pretty fast compared to oldschool FFXI for example but then you can join FFXI, get to 30 and be 99 in days now so...

A lot of people have rushed through content to get to 50 ASAP. I'm not criticising that but I've actually played more than I thought I would and missed a lot along the way. Just deciding to gather materials recently instead of paying my companions to quest em, I discovered whole areas I was utterly oblivious to, including heroics etc. I'm not saying that it's for everyone but if you want a break from hardcore endgame then don't rush, explore thoroughly and enjoy it. I'm treating it as a chatty single player rpg and teaming up with 1-2 friends. That way I enjoy it a lot and don't feel pressured. To keep people though I can see BW having to throw in a lot more content for 50+

I'm expecting Bioware to release a fair bit in the spring tbh.

I rushed my BH to 50. I don't regret it because being first at end game helps extensively.

However, rushing through this game for your first play through isn't a bad thing. My alt is a fucking beast that does everything that I missed. I can run FPs, do some exploring and whatnot on my alt - then do all that matters on my Merc.

Seriously fuck this game with its maintenance times. I know since I live in Japan I'm screwed, but every Tuesday it's down for weekly, last 2 Saturdays fucked me during my prime time, and now again servers are down from 5-7pm.

Nobody cares since you're not supposed to be playing this game outside of NA or whatever, but ffs they do a lot of maintenance.

How cute, they even copied the days Blizzard does server maint. on WoW.

They should have gotten their own idea, maybe done maintenance on a Saturday during prime time. Don't act like copying tuesday server shutdowns isn't a massive ordeal.

**Grey Jorildyn** · 2012-02-02 17:07

That's like blaming christians for being monotheistic cuz the jews were. It's just kinda the standard day at some point. Hint: blizzard gets to set standards for some things

**Zerocool** · 2012-02-02 18:12

I always just figured it was because the game went live on a Tuesday. Since it is, you know, weekly maintenance.

**djzombie** · 2012-02-02 22:12

Just always figured it was that way because most new movie/game release are done on tuesdays, hence any new content patches would be released on that standard day, set way prior to wow's release.

**Grey Jorildyn** · 2012-02-03 03:07

true that, everything comes out on tuesday haha i think nintendo still does sunday releases sometimes though? not that it really matters.

**vrumpt** · 2012-02-03 09:16

It works for the best though. Tuesday allows them to come into the office on Monday, finalize the patch to roll it out, then they have the rest of the week to roll out emergency patches if necessary.

I'm sure blizzard didn't pick Tuesday out of a hat to start with either. Its a day of the week that makes sense.

**Lordender** · 2012-02-03 09:39

300 million $ at its finest, nope they sure didn't copy anything!

WoW and this game both blow >.>

**izembo** · 2012-02-03 09:44

half of those are issues because the person has a crap computer playing it. and every mmo uses that interface nowadays, it works, who cares

**Lucavi** · 2012-02-03 16:26

Why are you trying to White Knight in a complaint thread? There's no excuse for many of those, especially the races. Hell, you have all of those races already pre-established in dozens of novels and many movies, and you still only use a single humanoid skeleton template.

**Rulke** · 2012-02-03 18:17

holy shit @ the cost of the mouse, keyboard and mousepad O_O

**Kachiko** · 2012-02-03 19:26

Server vs Server Warzone Queues, please. There's about zero PvP diversity, on our server, due to another huge guild in there, 24/7, rocking 3+ Sorcers / Vent. Sometimes they get lucky and queue a second group, to have a full OPS worth of them, with several rocking full PvP sets. The rare game they aren't in there, are very fun, but because of how they roll, very few, on either side, PvP because of it.

i'm not, theres plenty to complain about but if you cant at least be constructive about it and point out actual problems with the game and not with the persons computer it isnt worth listening to the person.

**madpersian** · 2012-02-03 22:32

Dude, all the races having the same bodies with just different color skin and slightly different heads is a REALLY valid complaint. It's lazy and an embarrassment for a game with this much money sunk into it.

**vrumpt** · 2012-02-03 23:32

Its justified with how they did the animations and the story stuff with cutscenes. Having different body types would just compound the work needed for all of that but some ungodly amount.
