SW:TOR

[morgwath]

Was wondering if anyone plays Star Wars: The Old Republic. I'm on space slug server (mainly imperial side). I've really enjoyed it.

Morg, I haven't tried out SWTOR. I haven't been much of a Star Wars fan since the new movies came out so I didn't give it a shot.

Been to excited for GW2.

I played SWTOR too Morg on Krayt Dragon server. My main was a vanguard and I really enjoyed the game at the start but I fairly quickly lost my interest. There were a lot of things that I liked about the game but I didn't enjoy the endgame much. I haven't played since 1.2 was released so I don't know how the game has changed, but I've gone back to LOTRO a bit to fill the time until GW2!

Yeah I hit 50 on my Bounty Hunter and haven't touched him since. A few guys from Wow (Coven of the Harbinger Guild) are on Space Slug with me. I REALLY like the game...it just doesn't feel like a MMO. We have to set aside a day and just group together for pvp/flashpoints otherwise everyone is just going through the game solo. It really is more like KOTOR3 with coop available.

I've got both a level 50 Bounty Hunter and a 50 Sorcerer on Sword of Ajunta Pall. I actually really like the game, but being at level 50 has kinda caused it to stagnate for me. I've probably become too corrupted by WoW's automatic dungeon group finder, but I just don't have any fun sitting in the Imperial Fleet spamming chat for an hour trying to get something going. When I DO get a group and actually get to run a hard mode flashpoint it's a blast.

I also haven't had much success in getting into any Operations (raids). The only time I have to raid is real late at night (I can't reliably be to a raid that starts earlier than 10pm eastern time) and with my experience with WoW it isn't usually easy to find a guild that runs that late.

I haven't logged into SWTOR in weeks (actually it may have been a little over a month now) but I still have my sub going in the hopes that I log on one day and find a very active guild. If I had a very active guild that made it real easy to get flashpoint groups together and to get Operations going late at night I know I'd love SWTOR. I enjoyed the leveling in SWTOR more than any other MMO I've played and I have loved what group content I could enjoy, but I just can't stand logging in and having to stand around doing nothing while spamming chat for a group.

So i've been playing a lot of TOR the last 2 weeks. Got my sorcerer up to 50 with my BH. Now working on a sith marauder(currently 32).

I've used the new group finder tool a couple times. Wish it gave an estimate of how long to find a group like WoW's dungeon finder. But it is better than nothing. The server I was on was being evacuated so I've transfered to The Harbinger....was is really funny since the guild I'm in (carry over from WoW) is the Coven of the Harbinger. We've reformed on the new server but not many active at the moment.

I actually don't mind SWTOR; been playing since it started.

I also played TOR until April or so, I was on The Fatman server (although I had a 20ish on Space Slug). It just got old too quickly for me. Good concept but the game felt too linear for me. PvP in TOR is really bad and I enjoy PvP too much to participate in that poor design. In their defence, Bioware have been saying for years that the game was primarily PVE based and they would not focus on PVP.

[morgwath]

The PVE basis is why i liked it. I've always sucked at pvp and get bored with it (only so many time si can run in, get overwhelmed and die, respawn and do it again before i'm bored). Been playing Swotor this week since i reached 30pts in GW HoM, and waiting on GW2.
