Star Wars: The Old Republic

[keg in kc]

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

a guildy of mine wants to try the light side, and was wondering if it's ok to join R53? Note he is not a KC fan, just a guildy. If so, who should I tell him to contact.

Huffmeister
Kthar
Shaakti
Tyterion

(sorry, but the last one escapes my memory)

I'm off to the gym, then dinner and then I should be on for as long as I can stay awake. I'm really tired of only having like an hour or two to play, so I'm looking forward to putting a decent session in.

Was traveling today and replaced my ram at the in laws house. Think it's defective. I might have broken my computer. Fffffffuuuuuuuuuuu

Sure, we'd love to have him. Now that I've gotten my ship, I've been thinking about starting my first Sith alt (BH). So I may be hitting you up for an invite.

BTW, the opening movie for Sith is way cool. Anyone who hasn't seen it should just start the character creation process just to watch it.

My toons are Sy'vus and Ty'vus, but everyonoe in the guild can invite so. Look up jammo, sama'el, Udon, Landyr or look up the guild if possible. Just tell them you're a friend of mine and you will get invited.

KCXIV is here with us too. We have cookies, crispy ones.

Have to admit, I was hesitant on this game, not sure how it was going to be in the traditional MMO style. So far though, wow...I am unbelievably hooked.

I find myself taking my time, enjoying the story that is progressing on my characters. Really sucks you in.

So far, I have tried every class for a few levels, except the Jedi Knight, Smuggler and Sith Warrior...Highest character I have is level 11 Sith Inquisitor Assassin and a level 10 Imperial Agent.


Curios to those who are playing, finally got a chance to experience a "Heroic" Quest with another person last night and partake in the joint conversation...that was very sweet. I liked how that worked. And you get social points as well, right?

What sort of stuff does social points get you?
All I can say is, now I want to hook up with some other people and do those quests in a group, just to see the dynamic change in the content. Pretty sweet...

Any of the guilds here into PvP, or mostly PvE?

Oh ya, the servers labeled RP, I know means role playing, but what exactly does that mean happens on the server?

The two CP guilds here are on Space Slug, which is a PvE server. You're welcome to join!

Hey, to answer some of your questions.

Currently from what I have seen the Social points or "levels" allows you access to some good "Orange" gear. They may have more stuff later on for Social levels and legacy levels.

You get legacy levels once you have completed the act one of your character. The Legacy thing allows you to create a last name that all your characters can then have on that server.

Since it is PVE guild and server I think alot of people are more into that currently. I can't remember who was on last night but they had been doing some pvp at earlier levels and liked it.

RP servers are more for those people that don't want to see "YO YO YO I pwned your newbie ass hahaha!! It would have to be more like "I let my anger flow and noticed that you underestimated the POWER of the dark side yet again"

They're not kidding about putting new content out quickly:

Next month we're going to be releasing a new Flashpoint and an expanded Operation. The new Flashpoint involves a plague that could have significant repercussions across the galaxy. It takes place on a brand new world and involves some pretty epic battles. I can’t go into much detail, but be prepared for something different. The expanded Operation takes the existing Karagga’s palace scenario and more than triples it in size. It includes three new boss monsters and some pretty epic set pieces.

OMFG, seriously? By the time I reach end game, there's going to be TOO MUCH to do!

And yeah, it was me who played some PvP last night. I'm not a huge fan of no level brackets.

Yeah, I think I'm a little more mature this time around and don't let it consume me as completely as WoW did even though this is a better game at this point, IMO.

We should try starting an Op for the Taris world boss sometime. I led the 25-man that downed SD-0 or whatever his name is on Coru and it was really fun. Just awesome seeing a bunch of randoms coming together like that.
