Star Wars: The Old Republic Random Question/Discussion thread - F2P

^ Each class gets 5 companions (not counting the droid for your ship) that are exclusive to that particular class. You can pick any of the 5 you like to travel with you (just 1 at a time)

Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. If I try to exit the game normally, it takes about 10 minutes to do it or I have to force shutdown my computer. I've just been alt-F4'ing to save myself some hassle. Is it just me or have I missed some note stating they'd be fixing it?

Also, how many of you aren't Jedi/Sith? I'm a Gunslinger and when I group it's always Jedi. Have to say, Jedi have very bland responses unless they're dicks. Smuggler replies/choices are pretty amusing.

oddly enough i was having that problem in beta, and it went away when early access kicked in. sorry i can't really help.

I can shutdown my game no problem

probably a totally retarded question BUT, I spent Friday, Saturday, Sunday playing the shit out of this game with 0 issues. Today I can't do any bgs without wanting to rape my own face because the floor is constantly disappearing and I've had it twice where I fall through it eternally (/stuck does nothing for me). going through a defrag now to see if that helps but any other suggestions? I have the game on low settings for everything but it doesn't seem that "low" are there advance settings somewhere I'm missing outside the basic one in preferences?

So I'm going to finally play tomorrow, going Jedi Knight with a guild and was wondering if there was a website with pictures to compare the Light / Dark side armor. Tried searching but no luck.

Surprisingly I've found the balance (on Sith side at least) to be fairly even. I'm playing IA->Operative but I see plenty of pretty much everything.



The BG issue seems pertty random. You might want to try a reinstall or something. Might be a file issue.

[Mytiwar]

Tomorrow I'm finally getting my game; I'm gonna be pretty darn casual for a long while except the odd holiday... The bg guild with the most members was Sith on Mind trick? Can I contact someone in particular in game to get in or send a pm here or you guys are full and not taking nubs ?!

Playing BH->Mercenary to start with, hybrid healer setup (well, that's the direction I'm headed anyway, I'm like level 17 so not a whole lot of healing there yet). Old XI LS-mates n' such pre-registered our guild as Sith side, but I'm not real keen on playing an "evil" character. Haven't grouped at all yet , but I've seen plenty of variety in other players running around.

[Purrrfect]

It seems pretty even split on Juyo server Repub side from what I've seen, but I'm only 15 so far. Had the last 4 days I was expecting play when I took the time off, and magically shit popped up to be done instead. >< Hopefully next weekend I get 3 of my 4 days to play... I'll be making my Imps tonight so might get one to the fleet later on.

Me and about 9 others are rolling sith on Wound in the Force.

Sherpderp come with us i miss your voice on the daily.

Got the game last night as an early christmas present from the boyfriend. Almost got level 15 before the servers shut down, was hoping to catch up to the bf who is level 20 before he got home from work but oh well Going the healing route on Bounty Hunter. I actually can't remember the name of my server, but its something along the lines of K----- Crystal.

[Zetanio]

They are down until midnight for release. Expect immediate server overloads.

[Falisa]

Never got the point of making a big deal out of official release when an MMO has early access. Anyone who would care enough about the game to play it RIGHT at launch would already be playing in early access.

[Ezek]

Man, servers were already flooded during early access. The queue times are going to be fucking hilarious (in a bad way).

[Alderaan]

Trying to melee PVP is like pulling teeth. Too many fucking troopers/BH's in BG's. What else is new i suppose.

[Pooky]

Server down = Naptime.

Almost hit 26 too, lame. Sage Healbot is pretty fun though, I'm a fan :D

[Ezek]

On a side note, we duoed the Battle of Ilum and almost duoed the False Emperor flashpoint. Ended up failing on last boss in the latter since it requires 2 coordinated knockback abilities when boss hits 10% hp...Vanguards have no knockbacks. LOL. Y u no give Concussive Charge to Vanguards, Bioware.

Gonna upload a video on the second to last boss in False Emperor; it was borderline exploitative on what we had to do to kill him, lol (involved lots of LoS and healer pet positioning abuse to avoid his frontal cones which ignored said LoS).

Be sure to enter in your product keys by the way. I got an e-mail from Origin two days ago with my product key etc.

[vrumpt]

Who does fucking server maintenance in prime time? Now I have to go play skyrim or some shit that isn't SWTOR. Lame.

[Ezek]

They're most likely timing it so it's a midnight release (retail) for EST, /shrug

And yeah, I'm going to go kill some people in BF3. I've been missing my FAMAS.
