Ah I see. Haven't tried it yet. There are some exceptions ofcourse, but trust me, most of the F2P MMO communities are horrible.

I personally extremely dislike micro transactions. Would probably be one of the few things that would make me immediately quit swtor. p2p model is much better imo, simply because everyone invests pretty much the same amount of money into the game and plays it on equal conditions with everyone else. With micro transactions, no matter how well they are done and subtle they are it's still if you put more money into the game you get an advantage. Even if it's a small one it's an immediate turn off for me.

Don't.

I gave up on Wargaming and their horribly balanced, biased, cash hungry approach in game design.

The starwars MMO plays like a clunky terribly skinned version of WOW.

Leave it to them to fail on the fact that it SHOULD BE AN ACTION MMORPG and not another wow clone.

Micro advertisement not trasnactions. IE Ingame Billboards or somewhat out of character uses of brand named items. (A ford Star cruiser) Not that BS Micro transactions

WOW Clones are getting Old.... Every game is derived from the RuneScape/Darkfall lines that turned into WOW and now most MMO's are bad knockoffs hate it.... Get unique guys!

WAR was a huge disappointment for me since Dark Age of Camelot was such a vastly different game compared to wow.

(Made by the same company)

WAR was WOW.

I played DAOC for like 6 years. WAR I played for 3 months.

Part of the issue is the nerds playing WOW don't want change. They don't wana lose there shit. There in there comfort zone. So they won't see shit outside their specific game.

Just like I dont want M&B 2 because that means cRPG does what?

Sad but true. Because generic MMOs still get so many players companies don't risk with trying to make unique games.

Also - http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=vjYD6Seyn1Y :D lol'd irl, probably one of the best bugs I ever saw ingame

I only lasted three sessions.

The class quests and flashpoints were nice and all but the MMO structure, and inevitable grind, just isn't my cup of tea, nor is this auto target, quick key series mashing that's supposed to be a combat system. Not that the game isn't great for its genre, according to some of my MMO nerd friends.

PM me if anyone's interested in a cheap serial key.

Going F2P as expected, you will be able to play for free if you were interested in the game.
