Thx Illmatic. Saved me a lot of reading :)

You forgot one:

It doesn't have 11 million subscribers, so it must be a failure.

It's a long swim down but I've been meaning to try the game so sure.

jakes456

It hasn't though.

Well I got the game on release and it's a ok game, I know this has been said so many times they should have made a KOTOR 3 rather than a MMO.

Btw, I did not even last a month with SWTOR and think it was a big disappointment so this has nothing to do with being a fanboy. Just pre-empting your next obvious troll comment.

Also, did you copy paste this from /v/?

So I just had a really interesting experience regarding SWTOR. I reinstalled it, was thinking about returning to it again with some friends, and as I booted up the game to see if it installed correctly, it actually let me play on my characters.....I haven't paid for a sub since march :lol: and I'm not paying one now.....did my account get a random lifetime sub? XD

They have a free week for anyone that purchased the game. This is from the email they sent me "We would like to offer you the opportunity to come back and play Game Update 1.3:Alliesfor 7 days on us* until 7/17/2012, 2:00AM CDT/ 7:00AM GMT."... which was then followed by them advertising their character transfer feature. I personally enjoyed my time with SWTOR, but once I hit 50 I got kind of bored and moved on. I still feel like I got my moneys worth tho, the story (helped by the fact that I love star wars) was really engaging and made questing pretty fun (the combat did get old though because they make you backtrack across planets a lot while questing).

I started to get it, then realised it was a 25gig file. Stopped as I have no intention of playing over level 15.

I wouldn't play that garbage even if it was free to play.SKaREO

I was really looking forward to trying this with a friend, but after 3 hours of the game not starting, errors, hanging on the first loading screen and then not being able too join our region servers we both gave up. And too make things worse we couldn't find anything similar too our issues on the forums nor were we able too post with trial accounts to ask for some help. Iv still got the game installed in the hope I may get it working, but as for my friend, they were already pretty cautiousof the game and uninstalled it.

I tryed it again with my level 50 Marauder but the game still feels bland, also transfered my character to a busy server and the fleet area still stutters like mad so I am guessing they never really fixed game peformance like PVP warzones. It feels like they have added a ton of stuff which is great but failed to fix some of the huge problems that people were compalining about like the really bad fps drops in PVP and Fleet.

There is also waaayyyyy to many spells, I mean I have a Razer Naga and bind every ability pretty much in WoW but in SWTOR there are just far to many similar spells.

one step away til f2p

the only reason i gave up on it was the fact that i had to subscribe to get my 30 days free which i felt was a big rip off...ok you are gonna say all mmo's are like that but i remember a time when you bought wow and you did get your free 30 days and then if you wanted to continue you had to pay. To me that gimmick left a real sour taste in my mouth. now i am going back and will try all the classes , more of a sight seeing thing for me at thsi point.

its gonna go F2P but its gonna restrict a lot of things like lord of the rings online, pirate of the burning sea or conan. I can see it happening. and i am pretty sure that the subs would go up if it was f2P...all the haters would not hate so much after all. i can guarantee you that.!
