Why isn't this getting released in Australia?

Imp Agents, what kind of "rotation" are you using?
I did that shuttle flashpoint with a friend earlier. Bosses I tried to:
Get to cover
Get a seeker up
Poison Dart
Snipe snipe snipe etc
Use the spammy shot till energy came back
Not sure if this is a good way to do it, considering the whole faster energy regen the more energy you have mechanic.
Is the poison dart dps (no talents for it) worth it?

The talent trees are indeed godawful as is the auction house. Not being able to search for an item by name without selecting type, etc. is insane but perhaps the worst bit is not even being able to filter armies by their slot. Flipping through page after page to hopefully find some pants = dumb. I have no clue how this system made it into the final release.
I am insanely hooked. It's a total blast. My BH (merc) is now 17 and on Balmorra. Glad my droid can craft, etc while Mako heals my ass.

I've been going with the male IA, and it's been pretty damn good. Especially mixed with something like Chiss for the look and focusing on dickish/dark side conversation choices.
I finally hit level 25 with my Jedi Sage last night, and I'm now into "new" content which I've not seen in any test. I must say I've really enjoyed it so far.
The only irritation has been the queue situation (1000+ before midday on ToFN) which I really hope will be sorted once the caps are raised.

Think I'm done with MMOs. If this had been a single player game (from what I've seen of the story) I'd have been all over it.
Sooo buy it and play it for the first month. You probably could get at least one character to 50. I understand not wanting to pay a subscription fee but you get a free month with the initial purchase. There really is no reason not to get it for at least one month if you are a kotor fan. The game is very similar.
Curious if any EU Gaffers want to set up a guild on a different server, seriously sick of these queues every time I try to play. I'm assuming it's only going to get worse at launch.
Only problem for me is I really want to play BH still but i'm sick to death of the BH starter area.

I'm loving the warzones but there is only three different maps. They all each have unique gametypes and it seems odd they didn't make at least a couple more maps for the battlefield gametype.
Whats your name on this server? I might roll on this server too.

I have asked this in general but i haven't gotten an answer. Is there anyway to pick which warzone you join instead of randomly joining one? I ask because i almost always get Voidstar and i hate it. I prefer Alderaan and i want to try hutball but so far i haven't gotten into a single one.
Republic or Imperial?
no i don't think so
Honestly, I am level 17 so far and I think I have grouped up twice during that time, and only once was to help someone else who asked for it.
I think it's probably worth buying the game for the free 30 days of play just to go through as much content as you can, then pick up a cheap game time card if you feel you want more.
How is it possible you guys getting 1700 queues? Is this on Euorpe server's? The most I had ever got is a 20 min wait with only 100 queue.

Modesty becomes a woman
Male Trooper had a lot of repetitive lines, either that or I'm just hitting it perfectly to get him to say the same things over and over again.
My Male inquisitor isn't having that problem though.
Tomb of Freedon Nadd, right now it says the queue is 2 hours and 20 minutes, but that translates rougly to about 5-6 hours
I decided to give up on ToFN unless there isn't any queue(Which is generally at like 2am+ in the morning). Got the Sith Jugg I made on Frostclaw up to 24. Unfortunately now Frostclaw is experiencing queues. I think this is the problem with moving servers. They all seem to be filling up really quickly, so you'll end up with another queue anyway.
I've probably grouped more doing early quests on this than all the other MMOs I've played put together. Probably due to so many people hitting the same content at the same time, but grouping is the best part. I've never got to end game content before but hopefully my interest will hold out this time.

Sigh, I think I'm buying the game this week. Hope they up the server cap on the 20th or something, the queues don't sound like fun.
Going Bounty Hunter > Powertech > Pyrotech. Dark side. Got my talent tree all figured out.

No, I'm hearing "Sounds like you need a soldier!" a HELL of a lot with my trooper.
I just woke up, went onto SWTOR, saw that the tomb of freedom nadd said 2085 queue and then logged off.
I'll probably end up playing it for an hour tonight before I go to bed (I can usually get on around 10 - 1am roughly), just sucks that I can't play when I want to but meh

I'm veering closer to returning my full copy, these queues are wholly disappointing. The game itself has been brilliant with wonderful quest-lines, a positively tangible atmosphere and a buzzing community (I am available for DVD case quotes!). But the queues are just too much to gamble £40 on if I'm being rational.
Fingers crossed they increase capacities across the board, instead of opening up new servers..

Dont give up yet, WoW has been plagued with queu's for quiet some time (sometimes i had 5hr+) it gets better

Oh yea, duh. That's where I am right now. I love the scenery. Obviously in an MMO its tougher to make it feel incredibly populated, but it does a decent job of feeling like an actual city. For now my imagination is enough when thinking about what life must be like living there.
The game feels like KOTOR To me without a doubt. I am seriously considering the monthly fee. We'll see how my month goes and if it can hold my attention and continue to encourage me to press on. I have a feeling that I'm just getting started in terms of experiencing the meat of the game.

But if EA did thois whole limited release thing why the fuck are there still queues before the game is even OUT? It's out in only US and EU, plus limited pre-orders. They should have known exactly what they needed.

I fucking love my little Sith Inquisitor.
I can't step away from this game. Must. reach. 50. GAH.
I sooooo hate you....
The game isnt even released yet. What gamble? You really think queues like this will last longer than a month? If it truly bothers you hop on a new server near or at launch. It wont have the giant queues.
If the game isn't even released and there are already queue problems wouldn't they logically get worse once the floodgates are opened on launch?

Had a 13 hour marathon yesterday... God this game is just what I needed. Loving the Marauder. Just got my ship. Woo!
Nar Shaddaa is my favourite so far, just love the city. You have a bit to go before you get there, mind.

Wow, Nar Shadaa looks awesome! I can't wait to get the hell off of Taris. I'm just gonna speed through the class quests and I should be 20 by the time I'm out of there. That should be high enough for Nar Shadaa, right?
