Saw this on Facebook and have to say..OFF MY MOVIE LIST! Lucky I didn't read his booms either.. what a homophobe. Just thought I would share.. Cause it really ticked me off!

Not on iTunes.. But he has a link on his Facebook page to get his song.. But yeah.. Seriously.. Too cute for his own good and my husbands..lol

Dudes I have been waiting for this game for 18+ months I am soooo keen for a beta invite! EXILES FTW!

Well. I sent a tweet to Team_Wildstar and an email to one of my good friends in carbine studios. He's just a UX designer, so he has no say, but he might be able to send something in. So I sent him the website for this guild and said they are nothing but bringing communities together. Providing a welcome and encouraging atmosphere, that you guys are the epitome of a good community. We'll see if this lands some of you guys Beta access. Even if its just a few. I'll be happy.

Is his song on iTunes yet I couldn't find it? I don't know how any man, gay or straight could turn down that boy (fans self) gives me the vapors. I really hope for his continued success.

I don't play the game side of NW. I do however love the Foundry and must remember to do some more work on my quest.

I added this to my news feed a couple of days ago. I love it so much. I even paid £2.90 for the song!

I remember staying up really late to watch Space above and Beyond. I'm just glad Once upon a Time hasn't been cancelled yet. I don't think i could like without my dose of Prince Charming.

So if you haven't heard of Steve Grand and all the attention he is getting then here is his video. Not to mention he is very nice to look at and taking a risk putting himself out there. He has been mentioned by both George Takei and John Barrowman on Facebook and numerous news outlets and my husband and I are on the band wagon hoping he makes it big.



Enjoy the song and the vid.

:)

I fly Vo'Quv but I'm guessing we have different playing styles. I throw everything out there--the ship's fighters, satellite turrets, and Scorpion fighters--to do a good bit of the dirty work for me.

It's been awhile since I flew this, but I used it to farm enough space STFs to buy my KliSci a full ground set:

= LEECH KARFI =

Jem'Hadar engine and deflector, Honor Guard shield

Weapons: 4x single polaron cannon, 3x polaron turrets

Consoles:

- Sci: Phase Shift, Plasmonic Leech, Aceton Assimilator, Borg console
- Tac: 3x Polaron
- Eng: 2x your favorite armor

Useful DOFFs:

- Flight Deck Officer
- Deflector Officer
- Gravimetric

= Strategy:

The Leech Kar'fi uses Polaron weapons and Power Siphon drones to incapacitate a single target at a time.

This build can completely shut down a Tactical Cube (except its torpedoes) in ESTF in a few seconds, allowing the rest of the team to safely tear it apart.

= Tactics:

Skills:

- EPtS, TSS and Aux2SIF keep your own hull and shields up, Hazard Emitters keeps the plasma away
- Hazard Emitters, Aux2SIF and Transfer Shield Strength can heal yourself or an ally
- Chain Tac Team 1 for energy damage bonus and shield balancing
- Chain Cannon Rapid Fire 1+2 to increase damage output of ALL cannons and turrets
- Gravwell 1+3 means you can drop a Gravwell every 40 seconds

+1 Consoles:

- Phase Shift can either be used defensively as a panic button, or offensively to close on a target without taking fire. This comes with the Kar’fi, not a separate purchase.
- Plasmonic Leech console is a bonus power drain for this build that keeps your own power levels high. Energy Siphon skill could be substituted for this.
- Aceton Assimilator is also a bonus power drain for this build. It adds to the target-spam of your pets to make you harder to target and has the bonus of hitting back at anything that shoots it.

Launch bays:

- Load siphon drones for maximum power drain
- Load shield drones to heal yourself or an ally
- Load Skul fighters for more DPS
- Mix and match any of the above
- Avoid Frigates due to their annoying Tricobalt mines

Hi Nightbound, I've sent you a PM as well as posted a reply to your intro post. I just need a bit of information and I will make sure I am online when you usually are so I can send you an invite. You've already given me most of the information in this post so all I need is a time frame to know when I need to be in game. See you soon! :)

I felt that way at first, too. Then I started levelling another toon on the opposite faction, a Soldier instead of a Sith, and the gameplay just felt the same. Yes his story was different, but the rest of it was so similar to what I had just done. So I tried a few other classes and the feeling just didn't go away for my friend and I. There are some people who never experience that, and perhaps you're one of them, but I wouldn't say that the game is better than STO; just different, but in all of the same ways.

But I mostly play games for the story, so I imagine this won't bother me as much. :)

I felt the same way. Even the stories within the same class just all felt the same. And the space combat in TOR is just completely superficial. After haven't having touched the game in probably 9 months, I finally dropped the sub on it.

I think we'll have to experiment with this one. The next couple of Saturdays, we can try running the missions at a later time. 9PM EST or 11PM EST most likely.

Hi all, I posted in the introduction section and was looking for an invite to the Knights of Stonewall in SWTOR :) My main character is the same as my forum name, Nightbound :)

Oh okay cool, see you there!

Are we ever going to try the later time?

I am so glad you are enjoying the game, SiranNataan. I know the F2P business model is a nightmare (although EA claims it has worked very well for them) but I believe that is intentional as they would like you to subscribe so they make F2P as horrible as possible with idiotic restrictions.

Any game where you can create more than one character is going to be repetitive for the characters that follow the first one because that's the only way they can have enough for anyone to do at any particular time. It also makes it easier to complete some of the more difficult missions because you know ahead of time what's going to happen and can be ready for it. In SWTOR you have several choices in responses to make so unless you pick the same answer for all your toons, you can try out many different angles for each mission. But as was stated, spacebar is there to speed your way through the answering process but I like listening to how each toon responds so don't often use the spacebar. :)

They are adding new operations as well as harder versions of the already existing operations so there is a lot of endgame to progress through. You have to be at level cap to participate in these operations though so there is an incentive to level your toons if you want to participate. We are working on forming a group that will be able to start doing these operations but it will take awhile to get everyone ready. It's fun working on that though, especially on double xp weekends, I have been able to gain anywhere from 3-5 levels a day when I am able to play on the weekend. Slower going during the week though and it's sure hard to go back to regular xp on Monday. :(
