Time to make my monthly post: They release a Droid race yet? I was a bit put off by the whole email fiasco bullshit, but I am resigned to play this monstrosity whenever it gets pushed out regardless.

You can be a healing trooper and blast him with your medical shotgun. I'm sure he'd forgive you then.
That's smugglers, Healing Troopers use Sanitary Gatling guns. No Droid race, a few Droid companions. For a general impression (none of which should be shocking anyone): If you enjoy Bioware RPGs and all that entails, you'll probably enjoy SWTOR. If you enjoy WoW style PvE, questing, dungeons and all that entails, you'll probably enjoy SWTOR. If you are looking for some kind of open world, live your life as a space cowboy, you will be very disappointed.

I actually like the graphics. I think it's stylized enough that it enables them to make a remarkably beautiful world.

Some of the worlds really are spectacular, the scale of the constructions and stuff is very StarWars.

Speaking of scale I actually like that they took real effort into making everything to scale in the game. This makes some of the areas pretty huge.

Yeah, the graphics are actually surprisingly good.
I've softened my stance on this game considerably with my second bout in beta. I can't elaborate more, obviously, but I could almost buy this.

World art, I agree, looks awesome. Character art, I'm still not convinced, also draw distance seems like a concern, given how expansive the landscape gets.

PS - if Slap or Bat need a pre-order person to get the reservation, let me know and I can switch over.
Who can tell who has pre-orders in this wretched hive of scum and villainy? As far as art...well, darn that NDA. I'll just say my last three nights I hit the hay at 6am, 5am and 5am, which hasn't happened in over ten years. Thank Odin for an understanding fiancee. And a 5-day weekend, so I can sleep tomorrow.

This. I don't think there will be a shortage of Trooper class players. I took y'all's advice and decided to beta a class I wouldn't likely play at launch. Glad I did, in more ways than one. Fordel will be pleased.

I've got the pre-order love. Aaaand to echo your sentiment, I spent a helluva lot more time playing than I had anything since SWG. Thankfully, this thing drops after I'm married so then she'll be stuck with me. =)

Tuned in, immediately get to watch cringey Ubisoft talking head offering her deepest sympathies to the families impacted by the Orlando shooting while flanked by a man in a giraffe suit and some sort of "horrifically garish neon costumes through the ages" exhibit or something. We need to stop this fucking planet right now and sort some shit out. -Kail

Asking? Since Slap is taken care of, I'll probably rejoin Bat closer to release or whenever the server assignments near, just to be sure. Until then I'll remain in my PvP guild. What the hell? Am I the only one not in beta? I worked some connections, because not knowing was driving me batty.

Wait, so we have a Light-side f13 group now, or is it still just Bat Country until live?
Would be nice if we got a sub-forum at some point...page 400 achievement unlock?

As I understand there will be Bat Country for Empire and Slap in the Force(?) for Republic. The plan is both on the same server so they can be enemies and shoot each other for hilarity.
The sub forum may conflict with NDA or get closer than the Overlords like. Dunno.

So how is the game handling naming? Have they got a set up that accounts for duplicates so that we aren't swamped with a million almost identical looking names that just have various obnoxious misspellings to separate them?

Hilarity? I just seriously hate you all.

I have an email thanking me followed by another email a few days later apologizing for sending it to me as I am not a tester, but on the list of eligible. STOP PLAYING WITH MY EMOTIONS SMOKEY!
