Re: SWToR

Sad Pandas (pubbie PvP group with a good number of goons in it) moved on to ToR a while ago. It's apparently pretty decent now and the PvP is great so long as you don't mind paying $15 a month. It's not F2P past the story line, which I've enjoyed a good bit so far. If I were to play a MMO again it would more than likely end up being this one, and I've enjoyed what I've played so far as of level 10ish, but that may be because I haven't reached the MMO part of it yet; I haven't gotten much further because I don't want to play any MMO at the moment. The grind isn't bad and the devs aren't completely incompetent. Of course this is just stuff I've heard from a couple of people so take it as you will. They also tell me there's a ton of PvP on the RP servers, so not only do they get their fill of PvP but they get to mess with weirdos constantly.

Also everyone has max boob slider! :woop:

Maybe they can roll the servers forward 12 months instead.

Actually they could simulate this today just by yanking out the power cord.

Honestly, I kind of hope they do unfuck themselves. STO was the first MMO I spent more than a month on and actually worked on gear-wise. Like Asimo's said hundreds of times it was the most laid-back and chill game, and despite the constant making GBS threads on PvPers the Devs did it was a p great game. I'm definitely not playing another MMO after ArcheAge. I'm not holding my breath, though. I've accepted STO was dead for over six months now and Geko honestly doesn't know why the game is failing because Delta Rising is the best expansion ever, et cetera.

But hey, at least we still have Star Citizen! :suicide:

Another reason some people want to be "tanks" so much is they're the type of person who can't stand seeing their character or ship die/blow up because it literally breaks them a little more mentally. I wish I was making this up. Saw this frequently in ArcheAge where leaders of guilds would force their subordinates to give them all the tanking loot from world bosses and such, would order everyone to concentrate their heals on themselves and just outright have a mental breakdown yelling at and kicking people from their guild when they "failed" to keep them alive.

Oh god no, I was just on the same server and their drama was always leaked. Even the goons in FC couldn't deal with the pubbies and FC's leader; they used the CTS mumble instead of whatever FC was using.

A brother goon and brother space rich's personal interests aren't open to criticism in my view. Assuming these people are lying and this screenshot is actually some new thing.

Goons infiltrating the heart of the reddit cat girl gross man club is a triumph.

Or, pulse is space rich and therefore beyond bourgeois right and wrong.

Pulse was a redditor catgirl (unironically) before he joined SA. So if anything, he's infiltrated the heart of Dental.

If this is true I may even reinstall and try it o-ahahaha. Sorry, I tried. I'm content being lied to constantly and getting shitted on content-wise from MWO since the PvP's still (somewhat) playable.

Edit: Also Elite: Dangerous for the exploring the galaxy in a spaceship scratch that STO never really scratched.

You could try reading what you're replying to. 12x exp means you do only the story quests which are mostly boss fights, mini-dungeons and conversations with no robot rear end collecting to be seen. You can complete a classes story in about the same amount of time as a normal Bioware RPG(50-80 hours).

Yeah, but that means you have to pay EA money for a comparatively crap game with awful people.

I don't know what it is with STO (or the Star Trek franchise) that attracts ERPists who do that poo poo so blatantly.

Like, I played Tera Online and that game has an entire player race which is literally just lolicon pedobait and I never once came across that kind of poo poo in game.

Those things legit scared me and gave me nightmares. :(

^^^Glorious.

That's Mina Lia, Lina Mia? Both? Whatever. That's the guy who had three different accounts do the tonic dance on the bar and said he modeled his characters after his mother.

I ran into him a few days ago, because I log in every now in then to literally play with my fireworks that Cryptic tried to bribe me back with, and saw him. Make sure to ask him how he'll cope with not having anyone left in his fleet to do his life's work of having max fleet holdings if a new one comes out. He got really defensive and went on a rant about how he still has the best PvPer (Zelda) in his pocket or something.

I can log in fine, get to the character selection screen, but upon entering the actually game, I immediately get the "Server Not Responding" message for about 25 seconds before disconnecting. Not sure what the issue is, as I've had no connectivity problems prior to this morning's update.

I cant help but somewhat compare this to a real life occurrence I had recently.
I was doing the dancing game and my 11 year old son was finding it hilarious to cover my toon on the screen with a playing card. Whilst mildly amusing for a second or two it quickly got annoying, (the threat of no pudding after dinner was enough to make him reconsider lol).
The point is one usually plays a game (at least for me anyway) to actually see what one is doing.
Someone impeding that is impeding ones enjoyment of said game and is just plain annoying.

My choice quote from that thread, so far. Son is just plain annoying for wanting attention from his father.
