Don't believe there's a dedicated thread, and since they're starting to release information now, I figure it's time for one.

My brother got the game and he's been playing. I'm going to ask to watch him play for like an hour to see if I want it or not.

Ask him to play for an hour instead.

Just finished chapter 1 on my consular. Pretty awesome. Finished chapter 1 previously on my smuggler and that one was awesome too. So they're 2 for 2.

So... seeing as the Sentinel has a bazzillion different abilities and there isn't enough prime real estate on the keyboard for them all, I'm thinking about getting a Logitech G13 pad. Seeing as TOR has made any other games I used to like completely obsolete, I can even get that thing almost for free by trading in BF3 and Skyrim @ $32 a pop.

Opinions?

Oh God.

THIS is totally off topic but I do not have the power to make a thread

If someone could make a thread to discuss a possible ChiefsPlanet youtube channel, I will be thankful. I can set up the channel, make a amazing background and display picture.
The channel can be used to post everything Chiefs by all CPers. Ofcourse me (because I made the channel) and all the other mods will be in charge of the channel. If a CPer wants a video posted. Send the video to a MOD and thus we can get it up.
ALSO, think of this. If we get atleast 3k subs, we could apply for a YT partnership. THUS we get paid for posting videos.
--If this ever happens, we could use the money to donate to the site and some local KC charities.
Haters gonna hate.

I started a BH this past weekend, and it's been a lot of fun so far. The ranged blasty-blasty is a nice change of pace from my lightsaber twirling Sentinel. Although I did start jonesing to play my Sentinel, so I'll still be spending most of my time on him.

I was wondering why you haven't been on lately.

keg in kc · 01-03-2012, 09:55 AM

Hit 42 on my sage this morning. My gunslinger is lagging behind now, that being the character I originally used to unlock my legacy. I have to get back to her at some point, but I was doing a lot of dying on Balmorra the last time I played her.

About time to get back to my own sentinel and/or Commando, too.

That + a wicked sinus infection +general holiday family/friends obligations = not much time for my Sentinel (I'm sure T7 is getting lonely)

And speaking of companions, should I be using a particular companion for different sets of quests? Obviously, I had to use Kira for some class-specifics quests on Coruscant in order to advance the story. But once I got my ship and was able to change, I went back to T7 for his tanking abilities. I just finished up Taris (minus the bonus quests) and noticed that there were a lot of optional quest rewards that were Kira-only gear. Should I have been using her on Taris instead of T7? I made it through the quest lines without much difficulty, but I was just curious if BioWare had designed the game to use certain companions for certain planets.

I don't think any quests were designed for any specific companion. As far as I can tell, when there's a reward offered for Kira, there's one right next to it that is for T7 (they all look weird as they're usually cores/motors/parts since he's a droid). I usually keep T7 around as I'm the highest with him as far as affection goes and I have not had any trouble advancing at any point yet so, like you, I see no reason to change. Kira has crazy DPS so I'm sure killing mobs is way faster with her, but meh... I like T7.

The only trouble I ever had was killing that optional champion dude in the first Watcher One instance (he's in a side room all by himself). He was owning me hard. Took me like 6 tries to kill him.

keg in kc · 01-03-2012, 10:29 AM

I'm exactly the opposite. I don't like T7 all that much. Kira's out all the time on my sent.

Hehe, I was eyeing him last night and decided against trying to take him down.
