ya I saw that myself. I didn't really see the point behind this system in the first place as it's unlikely that every guild will get placed were they want to go. If nothing else, we can just delete the guild and create it on the correct server if we get screwed.


Yes, we sure can.

And please, if we do get screwed, don't blame us. :P
We've done our best to follow all of the rules and steps necessary to be put on the same server.

Not sure which side i'll be playing on though, since i dont know if the BF will be able to get off that day or not. If not i'll be playing my Jedi Knight Vanyel, otherwise i'll be on my Imperial Agent Ayden playing with his BH. Either way, i hope to see you guys in game! Hopefully we'll get the server selection email this week like they said.


There's nothing better than to be able to share a game like this with someone you are close to. It's hard for me to imagine what it was like to actually solo in MMOs. My husband and I have been playing duos practically since the day we started dating.

I am looking forward to release, but have to admit that my eagerness what tempered by beta. Before you experience the actual product it's so easy to get caught up in the hype, buzz, and excitement about the stuff they talk about, and only after you get hands on, get to see the not-so-shiny bits (and I'm not talking the expected issues that come with beta like lag or bugs).

At any rate, starting next week, things are going to be pretty busy around here as folks get into Early Access the remainder hope in after the official launch.

10 Days till Head Start!

December 05 2011
I dont know about you guys but i feel like ive been waiting for this game for half my life (or at least since NGE). It seems like this last month as been twice as long, but we're in the home stretch finally! I dont know how many of you pre-ordered, but i expect to be in game, bright eyes and bushy tailed (that's kind of a silly saying isnt it?) first thing next Thursday morning.

Not sure which side i'll be playing on though, since i dont know if the BF will be able to get off that day or not. If not i'll be playing my Jedi Knight Vanyel, otherwise i'll be on my Imperial Agent Ayden playing with his BH. Either way, i hope to see you guys in game!

The only unfortunate thing is that it's very clear from the beginning that it's two guys. When the "invisible" guy gives the guy his phone number at the beginning, you can very clearly see his name is "Paul"--written upside-down, but definitely there.


Isn't it infact the invisible guy's book to begin with? The other guy (Paul) writes his name and phone number to give to invisible guy, not the other way around?

It took maybe a week or so to get really used to it, but now i dont think i could go back to clicking.


I hold you personally responsible for spending $70 to replace my $90 (albeit 5 year old) Logitech G9x with the original Naga. :) I had a few set-up/startup issues, but it might have had something to do with the fact that there were 2 mouses plugged in at the same time.

SW:TOR will be the first game that I will be using to put it through it's paces, so I'm hoping learning a new character from scratch with the mouse will make it completely natural.

I'm not a huge fan of where the "Forward/Back" buttons are, I actually put one of the nubs on the Back button because I found myself having a harder time hitting that one than the 12-button grid.

I figure with it being Christmas, I've got about a month and a half to test it before I need to commit to keeping or returning it.

Re: What role (tank/heal/dps) you gonna play in TOR?

December 05 2011
Definitely starting off with a Trooper/Commando, most likely leaning toward the DPS end of the spec tree with some healing. Smuggler/Gunslinger is next on my list, and after giving the Imperial Agent a whirl, I'm probably going to roll up a Sniper eventually too. Really loved the nuanced story of the IA as compared to the Inquisitor or even the bounty hunter.

did not like my color crystal it was yellow and black i want purple (anyone know how to get one )


I agree, the yellow and black is horrid! There is a craft that can make parts for your gear and I think they can make different colors, not sure on what colors thou. Also you will get items from quests that will eventually replace the yellow and black crystal.

Re: What role (tank/heal/dps) you gonna play in TOR?

with 99.99% certainty, I'll be initially rolling up a Jedi Consular Assassin. I'm leaning more towards the outright DPS but may pick up some tanking skills to help serve as an off-tank if needed.

Which I may need some guidance on from more experienced tanks. I've only ever played healers and glass cannons, so we'll see how things go down with my guy. I still need to come up with a name for him DAMN!

Re: What server are the guilds going to be on?

December 05 2011
Soo excited at this news update:
"Today we are announcing that the Pre-Launch Guild Program for Star Wars™: The Old Republic™ has come to an end. Guilds that have met the prerequisite of having four members redeem their Pre-Order Codes at our Code Redemption Center are now locked for transfer into the game in time for our December 20th launch.

If your guild has qualified for import, you can expect to receive an email at some time over the next several days. This email will give you further details on how to check the status of your guild as well as further details about how to join your guild once you’re in the game. Your email will also tell you which server your guild has been assigned to, so you will know which one to select when Early Game Access begins. While we will do everything we can to ensure that your Allies and Adversaries are on your server with you, we can’t necessarily guarantee that every guild will see their Allies and Adversaries on their server with them.

We want to thank each and every one of you who took part in the program, and we look forward to seeing you all in the game!"

Well signing up with Knights doesn't mean you can't also play with another guild on an EU server.

I'm an Aussie myself. So I will also be seeing how it goes. Hopefully there will be enough players.

But officially Australia isn't part of the world contained in the world-wide release, so we don't get servers at all.

And yes, I completely 100% understand wanting there to be people on when you play. That's been my problem with WoW too.


Another aussie!! We should stick together!! Please tell me you plan to play republic??

Re: What server are the guilds going to be on?

December 05 2011
Ah I see! Thanks!

At the moment I am very much on the fence, for this reason: I am European, and while I do not mind generally to play on US servers (did that many years with SWG), I am not as young anymore as back then, and I am not sure how populated a US server will be at times *I* will likely play.

You see back then I was student and had plenty of time and stamina. ^^ So I could play all night. Now, it is not so, heh. I would LOVE to play with you guys! And I entered the guild and preordered and all, so I am definitely going to start a char there to see. But as I said, my time is European. Now as I hear there are only very few people for a EU guild, so I see it would not make sense to make a EU guild for 6-7 people.

Just saying as info here. ^^ It all boils down to the question how active the US server is going to be at my times, since I dislike to walk always alone when the server is dead empty, you understand. ^^
