I want to play a "Yoda species" badly but it's not a playable option (nor are Jawas, Ewoks, and basically anything other than a humanoid with different skin colors and horns).

I am going with my sister, boyfriend and some coworkers. I doubt I’ll go with any of the normal people I game with. I may go with a small collection of people that I trust like we did in Rift… that was fun and perfect. I doubt I’ll join any massive Gawaine guild.. that garbage seemed to implode in Rift from what I read and hear about.. way too many chiefs in that cluster ef.

It doesn't seem to be as popular as, say, Rift was on this board, but I'm enjoying it a lot so far. GK's guild is on Giradda the Hutt, a US East PVE server.

We're planning on Bondar or Highway, both PVP servers. Probably Highway as far as server but decided on Sith as far as faction. I'll post again once guild is up somewhere.

Can anyone that has been playing it give any indepth analysis about end-game? What's the point of PvP? Are there rewards/ranks? Space battles? I've read concepts, but I would really like to get someone that has first hand experience with it :P

I joined after that decision was made, so I'm not sure what their thought process was. I'm not a big fan of getting griefed by people 10 levels higher while questing, so it works for me. You can still do warzones, Smuggler's Den, and Ilum on PvE servers which is all the PvP I'll need.

I don't know if I'm just getting tired of these games but I find it strange that I'm not so excited to log on and play after my first day at it. It's PVE just like any other MMO but something about it is putting me to sleep. worried

If anybody cares, I will buy all accounts for 25% of the retail price provided I get sent all the info I need to switch a quick sell. (secret word account set up address – those I can verify while on the phone with c/s and picture of photo id of the account creator matching the name the account was set up on). PM me if you are bored and want to throw in the towel.

Ok this game is a blast.. it's gets better and better and the whole dark/light choices in the stories are hilarious. Especially if you play in a group.

For pvp I've done 5 rounds mostly in the Huttball scenario and for low level stuff it's seems good. The scenario is kind of like playing football. There is a ball in the ceneter and you send your tank to pick it up and everyone escorts them while the other team try to stop him run it to their side of the field. There is a also a protect the location for points type of scenario, similar to the WOW one. Haven't tried any other ones but the xp you get from scenarios seems to be much more than pve for the time invested.

That would be great if it wasn't that the pve is so good so you will miss out if you level up fast just doing scenarios

Definantly imho, if you are on the fence, try this game. Also definatly play with someone as the game design makes it more fun for 2 people rather than playing solo.

I'm still having fun. My sorc is 38; I also started working on a sentinel who is 13. I don't have high hopes for end game, but it'll be weeks before I get there anyway. Space combat owns. The warzones will be decent fun once they take level 50s out of them and add another same-side warzone so Imperials aren't stuck in an endless loop of Huttball. I expect I'll subscribe for at least a few months.

Yesterday with the patch , at least on my server, we all went out to Illum and it was like 400 Sith camping 80 Republics at their base. Fifteen of us rerolled to Republic to play the underdog side as it's a total bore outnumbering them this much. The new guild is called - the "Light" octopus for RP value. grin

I've been pretty much been playing non-stop with a friend since release, and wanted to give some perspective on the game, thus far for anyone interested.

I'll try and make it quick and concise:

The PvE is actually pretty fantastic. The dialogue options and light/dark side choices make PvE extremely enjoyable. The space missions add a new aspect to mmos that I haven't experienced before and help to add some variety (although, you don't actually control your ship/flight path, only where on the screen your ship is and what you're firing at). Instead of leveling zones, there are planets that you can travel to that are level specific. The design of the planets is actually very well done, but with that being said, after your 3rd or 4th planet, you realize the pattern is all the same, and you won't be finished with the planet until you have explored every unexplored area. It almost gets to the point where you cringe at the idea of having to do a new planet.

With all of that being said, I couldn't help but feel like I was playing WoW all over again, with a star wars cover. Which isn't a bad thing, because I think PvE was the one thing wow had actually gotten right.

As far as pvp is concerned, I've done more than a fair share of my scenarios, I'm up to level 27 valor. It's the same 3 scenarios over and over again, and the only one I really enjoy is huttball. As it stands now, in it's current form, pvp is pretty horrendous. From almost every standpoint, much like wow was/is, and now instead of realm imbalance, you're dealing with class/build imbalances since all the classes are the same on both sides(which I hate).

Every single class has some form of CC. And most classes have multiple forms of CC. It's absurd. Sorcs have pulls, pushes, snares, stuns, mez, and personal shields to boot. I think they're by far the worst, but even as a tank/dps I have two channeling cc abilities. It's all short in duration, but it's just a cluster F'. Even if it were fixed, I'm still not sold that the pvp would be very good. 4 man groups, equipment rewards, no xp/valor rewards for pvp'ing on planets (outside of Ilum, which I'm not sure if there are any there either). It's just...bad.

They did a spectacular job with the game itself, but the end game is, as far as I have seen, non-existent. The only reason I'm sticking around is because of what the company had said they were planning on developing for end-game, which seemed more inline with RvR/PvP aspect of the game. But when that will be done/implemented is yet to be seen.
