Now I'm tempted to see how fast I can get a Warrior up to 85 before TOR drops. Never played one past 30 before. :P

12/20 is a Tuesday so...

4.3 comes out this Tuesday or the one before?

It would be a bit too tacky to come out the same day,
but the one before is fair game to snipe a bit of thunder.

I dont see 4.3 and SWTOR affecting one or the other in any significant way.. be they released the same week/day/minute.

They are direct competitors and new content will greatly affect ones decision in purchasing a new game in that genre. I.E. I (and others) will not be playing sw until after 4.3 if at all. Despite the doom and gloom of this forum people still like the game, are having fun with it, and are greatly looking forward to the release of 4.3.

I still think the timing of 4.3 is a huge mistake.

If 4.3 was coming out in the next month or so, I would probably resubscribe to give it a whirl. With it coming out side by side (or nearly) with SWTOR I will just wait for SWTOR.

I resubbed for a month just to see what's up, with 4.3 coming out the same time as SWTOR, I'm just going to cancel now. I thought 4.3 would be sooner. I have like 5 members online from my guild when we used to have 20-30 during WotLK.

I haven't heard much positive buzz about 4.3. Just another patch, brought to you by the B team. Anyone still playing, well they obviously enjoy the direction WoW has taken post-Wrath, so of course they're excited.

There also people in this world that thought Battlefield Earth was a good movie.

So.

I feel bad for Barry Pepper. Great actor that, if you can stomach watching it again, did really give a good effort. He may as well have just been a giant walking bung hole with the level of writing and production though.

Actually, if he was a walking-talking anus, the movie may have actually been sweet. http://www.adultswim.com/shows/assy-mcgee/index.html

Battlefield Earth is one of the worst science fiction books ever written so any movie made from it was going to be nothing more than polishing a turd.

Was considering resubbing for 4.3 ... the set bonuses on T13 looks pretty good for almost every class ... but alas, I think I'll go retro and play Asheron's Call until SWTOR launches.

Amazingly bad maybe, or amazingly awful even. Neither the book or the movie ever rise above the level of major waste of time. Kind of like WoW has become under the glorious leadership of Crab-boy.

I loved the tv series, but aside from the first movie I thought all of the Highlander movies sucked. I haven't seen the second one, which is supposed to be the worst by far, either.

You must have never seen the Renegade version of Highlander 2, where they tried to remove every reference to Zeist or whatever the planet was called. Just made a bad, disjointed movie even more bad and disjointed.

PERMITTED DISCLOSURES
1. The fact that there is a Game Program.

2. The fact that you are a member of the Game Program. Anyone playing this testing weekend? What squadron?
