really, is a shame the state of the game tbh. Logged in seeing as still have gametime cause they gave 30 days free. Less than 30 online of server I was on at prime time. All US servers as of posting this are are Light. Being forced to quit a game because I picked a server that died faster than the others and bioware not addressing the situation and just expecting more subs to appear from nowhere. decent game but ruined because of bioware being almost useless and only attempting to fix things when it's already too late.

[QUOTE=Raidyr;36228202]It had (Has? :optimistic:) a lot of potential but Bioware just doesn't seem to want to tap it.[/QUOTE] I don't know... I enjoyed the 5? months I was playing it. As a game I feel it's good but its just bioware aren't really helping it. Seems to be getting a bad reputation and everyone calling out the F2P till X level they announced isn't helping either. It's not the game that's bad, It's bioware. IMO. They should pull something off JtL worthy of an expansion pack (in the sense of being awesome) and make it free.
I really want that HK-51 companion.
Somewhat interesting. HK-51 was part of KOTOR II's cut content. HK-47 was supposed to find the factory where the HK-50 droids who were hunting the player throughout the game (though they really only appeared in the starting levels for the most part in the release version), and one of the resolution options was for HK-47 to gain command of the prototype HK-51 units, take over the factory, and serve as one of the various factors in the endgame sequence. Just an interesting tibet. I guess its good that those droids aren't entirely forgotten, though considering what I've heard about HK-47's cameo in TOR, it might be too little, too late.
Whenever I hear/see something about this game, all it makes me want to do is go play Star Trek Online again, which is free to play, and has a really fun quest system. The only thing that sucks about it is the PvP which is getting fixed in the next update, but I digress.

Revan's on the other hand....
The game isn't bad, it was -decently- fun. Not over the top fun, but okay, fun. Bioware just did a piss poor job on it's initial release.
I liken TOR to red tails
[QUOTE=Kalibos;36228641]I liken TOR to red tails[/QUOTE] I paid $60 for SWTOR and nothing for Red Tails and I regret Red Tails way more.
Free to play by the end of the year.
[QUOTE=Jah Mason;36229076]Free to play by the end of the year.[/QUOTE] I'd rather have them shut down SWTOR and bring back SWG. We lost SWG and got a WoW clone.
[QUOTE=Jah Mason;36229076]Free to play by the end of the year.[/QUOTE] Nah it would be at least a couple years Even when they become extremely low in population, older sub MMOs take YEARS to decide to go the f2p route.
