What happens? You give it to me!

My only fear is that the game sucking hard, which is why I need the beta as I've already preordered the game and if they send me the 30-days preactivation before the beta, I can't cancel the preorder!

Really? wow. You mean to tell me that you won't get $60 of enjoyment out of your free month with this game? Games like El Shaddai take a week to finish and this game has a month worth of gameplay and you aren't willing to pay for that?

And they just showed the Huttball video again? So PAX will just repeat the Gamescom content?

Not likely. With two big events within weeks of each other and the Friday Updates continuing, it makes some sense that they would copy-paste a little bit. Sure it's less original content than I would expect, but if they are basically doing the same update, I'm sure it's just because something significant is coming Sunday (I think that's the day for the Bioware conference).

To be honest, since all the leaks, I'm loosing interest. Everything seems more and more bland and without content. I don't even watch new videos.

I still plan to buy the game because I'm a huge Star Wars fan and I love the idea of controlling a Jedi with glowsticks in a MMO, but beside that, I'm not sure where this is going.

Dude. Have you been paying attention the last couple of pages? There's still a lot we haven't even seen yet.

They were too cheating. They used a kill command to kill the mob when it still had 7k HP left.
Click to expand...

It did look like it, but it didn't really matter, because they were originally all behind the pillar and came out for the sake of ending the fight. They just came out a little too early. I've seen stuff like that happen in WoW a lot too, where stuff dies when it still shows health in the bar (probably because the server is calculating data from a lot of incoming sources).

I know how some of you are dying for a beta invite, and I knew the feeling all too well. I just want to offer you the consolation that you don't have to lose your character and do it all over again. Relish the fact that your first experience will be a pure one, with absolutely no emphasis on testing and feedback.

So true. I've been invited for testing for all the WoW xpacs and leveling from 60-70, 70-80, 80-85 twice, was a bummer.
Being able to play the content when it's polished, bugfree and as awesome as it should be should have it's pros.

SO YOU BETTER MAKE IT AS BUGFREE AS YOU CAN TESTERS!

Even at 50, imperial agents look boring.

All depends on what imperial agent you are. I figure the stealth + burst melee dps spec is action packed. Frankly, i'm looking forward to the cover specs more. The PVP vids from gamescom made the gunslinger look crazy good.

I mean visually, they are boring, which is a big reason why the class is going to be the least played imho

Where is the high-level content video that TotalBiscuit was supposed to post?

I have no idea what it is people get out of seeing PVP videos......especially when they just cut between different characters every other minute and you don't really know much about the classes.

I liked the boss in the raid had some healing intensive phases. I understand it's probably a very carefully set up video to make it look as exciting as possible, but that's normal mode, hard more should be fun. I enjoyed the part they showed that class healing. Best walkthrough video so far, in terms of group content.

One of the things i do not like is the various armor for the Sith Warrior (which i am planning to play first). They are all so bulky. I would prefer something more robe like.

Well it was mentioned that you will be able to make your character look like SW characters with the robes'n all. The example placed was you could take a lvl 8 item of robes and make it into a equivalent lvl 50 item. I'm not sure if that is meant to be as making that lvl 8 item and upgrade it or make the item of that lvl 50 that looks like a lvl 8 item.

I was just putzing around the various tor threads of the internetz, and found that supposedly an in-house tester has permission to stream the game, it's some kind of secret show, that wont be publicized (im guessing).

http://www.twitch.tv/jcbioware

dunno if its legit. probably.

Might be, I'm tuned in. I'll leave it open and see if he starts playing...

Notice they made it so the tank taunt ability has a function in PVP too.

WoW is one of the few games where taunt does nothing in PVP. In EQII taunt made whoever you used it on immediately turn towards you.

So I just got back from my dad's place, do you think I should email them saying I'm back home and wish to play or just go ahead and try playing anyways? I logged out at 10pm last night.
