It's just such a poisonous atmosphere on this forum (just like foh was) where from about 1 month after launch every mmo thread that isn't wow is nothing but negative nancies having a cry about it. We've known for a year that Bioware spent Australia's GDP on development and came up with a game...

I don't understand what you guys are whinging about. The UI is customizable. Less customizable than some (like wow) and more than others (like aion). They came up with a good solution for the phantom armor debacle and despite their unfortunate wording in that post (about forcing people to...

My guess is it's only FFA PvP. Most of the asian MMOs only have one ruleset and they tend to be very PvP oriented. It's better that way, it forces the sheep to play on the same server as the wolves.

The site preloads all of the HD images and music which is why it takes so long to load. I was wary of that myself. It makes the site really great to use though, every element opens instantly.

I'm playing it daily. Having a great time on my new Sith Juggernaut, doing Warzones a fair amount and completing the character and planet storylines. I ignore most of the side quests.

It may be an engine limitation that prevents them from easily making non human models. Anyway given the lack of resources on the game now we're definitely never going to see any new character models.

Awesome, thanks for the tip!

Best looking skin is the republic dancer outfit ^.^ Wish I could get it on my sith juggernaut, the empire dancer outfit looks terrible.

I don't know what you're talking about. The majority of the races in TOR are about as alien as you get in star wars (at least the movies and few books I've read) for sentient species. You've got blue humans, green humans, grey humans, red humans, humans with horns, humans with cybernetic...

Making non humanlike models playable would be a lot of work for them trying to make all of the armour models etc work. The benefit of humans with wierd shit on their heads (which is every race so far) is that they only need to model them once. Having said that almost all of the aliens you see in...

Yeah we are waiting to be merged. I'm playing on Master Dal'Nara (the Oceanic PvP server) and I'll be quite happy when they merge the 3 Oceanic servers into a PvE server. Losing open world PvP will be lame but the population is really too low at the moment to be a very enjoyable experience...

Not me, my Malgus statue is sitting right next to my monitor and it still looks awesome! But I don't understand why doing voiceovers is supposedly so expensive. Surely they have the technology by now to do the character animations automatically and actually recording all of the lines...

I play on Nagafen which has a much lower pop than AB and I get groups without too much trouble in Aussie prime time. I don't use the LFG tool though, groups are organised in 1-9 on Naggy.

My experience was there wasn't enough quests to go from 92-95 in eidolon/obol. I completed every quest in the xpac and I think I was only just 94 when I finished. The heroics are great xp though, about 30% or so for a full clear which doesn't take long at all.

It is definitely disappointing how SWTOR development has been going since launch but I think we need to accept the fact that the dev team was gutted and they probably have 1/5 or less of the people working on it that they planned to. So they are releasing content at 1/5 or slower of the pace...

You'll be able to tank skyshrine fine as long as you have an ok healer. The gear in skyshrine will mostly be better than what you're wearing (especially jewellery) so you can get some nice upgrades there. The key to doing contested SS is having a lot of dps in group so you can massacre...

How many AA and what quality of gear do you have? If you have DoV quality gear like rygorr or something similar you will be fine. Tanking is pretty straightforward especially as an SK, your only issue could be aggro if you don't have some aggro management in group (like a coercer or dirge)...

If you just want to get to 95 and max your aa/prestige the fastest way is grinding in skyshrine contested in a group. You can pick yourself up a good suit of level 92 gear doing that as well as there's a lot of nameds in skyshrine contested. Once you get 92 you can do the CoE questline and start...

Yep Vanguard is exactly what I was thinking of when writing that. I'm still thinking seriously about having another go at SWTOR when that xpac comes out (I'm one of the few people who really liked the game) but it's looking like a very anaemic expansion.

I wonder if they're going to make all of the existing level 50 flashpoints worthless after this or if the expert modes will be uplevelled to 55. That page doesn't even say if there will be new flashpoints so they might completely ruin what little endgame the game does have if they have a new...

Any more information about the 'xpac' available? The official page doesn't say much other than 'more story quest' and +5 level cap.

I played GW2 to 80, played at 80 enough to get around half Exotic gear (so not a huge amount).. I didn't really enjoy my time playing it. I'm not going to try to get a refund though, I knew what I was getting when I bought it. The game was very dry and uninteresting to me. The character...

I've never used hammer and don't know a lot about it but you could try looking at chaos instead of hammer. You can apply weakness with an ae builder (escalation) to increase the speed you kill things, and four horsemen is a good single target finisher. Shotgun gives you lots of good AE although...

http://thesecretsandbox.com/DeckBuilder/# It has one of the most interesting character development systems of any MMO I've played. I could try to suggest some builds for people but really it's more fun doing it yourself. You can't gimp your character since you can always just change your...

You can't respec but that doesn't matter since you can learn every skill. To be honest any combination will work for levelling until you reach transylvania. I levelled using blade/ele which is fairly glass cannon and just blowing things up with blaze/eidolon. Every combo works though because...

They didn't redo them, they're all very outdated except for the fact you can permanently keep the effects which are very strong in most cases.

I'm still playing EQ2 but as a non raider the group content in the latest expansion leaves a lot to be desired. It's very incomplete. No dailies, no weeklies, no rare nameds, no rare drops (other than insanely rare tokens and even more insanely rare ethereal drops), no zone/gear progression. You...
