Hurlshort Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm glad to hear everyone is enjoying it, I thought it was something special when I was testing it. I'm curious what the folks who dislike MMO's in general around here think about it, but they probably aren't playing it yet. I'm almost level 30, but now that I'm back to work I won't be moving nearly as fast. My goal right now is to finish up act 1 on my trooper to unlock the legacy system, and then I'll spend some time playing with other classes. I haven't given any time to my sith warrior, but that will change soon. My wife actually has an inquisitor up to level 11, but apparently she is lost on the space station and doesn't know where to go. I'll have to help her out later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malcador Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 They really need to fix that AH UI. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm glad to hear everyone is enjoying it, I thought it was something special when I was testing it. I'm curious what the folks who dislike MMO's in general around here think about it, but they probably aren't playing it yet. I am, and I am certainly not a fan of the genre. This game is pretty good though. For the most part anyway. The story is a lot worse than a single player rpg, but well enough executed that it works. it's certainly a bioware game. Part of my enjoyment is playing alongside my wife, that adds a lot for me. We're currently at lvl 30 and almost done with Tattooine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious what the folks who dislike MMO's in general around here think about it, but they probably aren't playing it yet. I guess I fall into the disliking MMOs in general category. I've played a few, enjoyed them, but I make a point not to commit to them and usually only last a couple of months. Combat was nice. It was faster than wow. It was good for an MMORPG, but not enough to draw me itself. The story I strain to discuss without spewing bile. It wasn't good and I'd encountered worse, but then it just hit a button that I couldn't stand. I understand my low opinion will be a minority.

Calax Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The class stories seem to vary wildly in terms of quality, that's for sure. And I feel like I need to have a wiki open in my secondary monitor just to figure everything out. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Supposedly the style of each class is different, the smuggler story is meant to come across much more.. light-hearted and swashbucklery compared to the agent story which is menat to be more "bourne ultimatum" atmosphere. I haven't actually explored those yet, so I can't say. I'm curious as to which you did go with and how far you managed to go. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

Hurlshort Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 There really are 8 different storylines here, even though there is a bit of overlap. I am not surprised that some will have vastly different opinions on the story because of that. I didn't get into the BH story when I played it in beta. Alternatively, I've enjoyed almost every step of my trooper storyline up to this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calax Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 The Agent and Inquisitor ones I've found have been the most interesting. As an agent you're skulking around neutralizing targets and intelligence rings while trying to dig out who's behind a huge terrorist act. As an Inquisitor you're helping your master gain more power by any means necessary... including murder. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Tale Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 BH story was one part gameshow and one part Unknown Rival. Could have made for a very funny joke, but I think they were serious. I think the guy whose pants were in a knot was supposed to be important. He was a recurring character and everything. Even killed my mentor of 5 minutes. Don't remember what his problem was. And then there was Tattooine. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gfted1 Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 So my SI is lvl 36 now and coming along nicely. Its a nice change working my way up the ranks. The conversations with every single NPC occasionally get on my nerves because it moves so slow but at least it forces me to (mostly) pay attention. Ive chosen every single time its been available and I think Ive gotten laid twice. I kinda screwed the pooch on my Legacy name and chose Spartacus (because I liked the parallel of a slave rising up to dominate) but now I regret it bacause it sounds stupid to be Lord Gfted Spartacus. Cant figure out how to change it. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant figure out how to change it. I missed the cult member you can flirt with somehow.. You know, you'll be catching up with me soon if I don't manage to get back to playing.... And I don't think you can change that legacy name once you've picked it... Every character you create on that server will now be Spartacus..

They said it would be 8 hours.. but they're up and running and have been for a couple of hours already. Hm, we should probably create a collection of who is on what server , with what characters rather then all this scattering through the thread.. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
