Star Wars: The Old Republic

So here is my list:

Issues:

• When quicktraveling to the Senate Commercial area, the loading takes forever and I'm stuck with watching a pinkish weird city while it decides if I'm worthy of continuing the game or not..

• When doing a force sweep my character does this half jump before she does the actual sweep.. That annoyes the hell out of me..

• Getting stuck at various places throughout the game due to lag or reloading..

• The cracks in the surroundings... I got one pic of it, but happened across a few during playtime..

Quite pretty if you don't focus on the crack in animation..

So, back to what matters...

Will I buy the game YES...
Why?? Because it's good game (haven't played enough to give you a "great" judgement)

I am a single player kind of girl and don't really enjoy having to depend on others for my gaming experience.. This is my first ever MMORPG (that I didn't quit after 2 min) and I really did like it..
I had a great experience and got to know very nice ppl.. It's always a plus and I do hope I don't have to encounter any "Trolls" (bad ppl are called  that apparently)

Still think I needed a little more "help" when I first entered the game.
So a list of useful tips should be done.. but not by me, cause I'm hopeless.. =P

This is what I've learned about MMORPG so far:

• Trolls = Bad ppl around the MMORPG universe
• LFG = Looking For Group, If your doing a quest that requiers more players than one. (they have a feature for that, but don't think ppl have figured it out yet)
• Guild = A group of people, (that's about all I know even though I'm pretty sure there's more to it.) Will get back to you on this one.
• AFK = Away From Keyboard, you just let ppl know you have to go pee or something.. To me it's the same as Be right back.. I just think MMO gamers want to be a little cooler than everyone else.. =P
• OMW = On My Way, to let you know your friends are heading your way..
• LFM = Looking For More/Members, if you have 1 player joining your group and you need more..

 Go here if you need some help with the definitions..

This is what I learned about SW: TOR so far:

• Never forget to check out all the tabs at the bottom of your windows.. Both trainers and skills have a lot of funny stuff that I missed the first 5 days I played the game..

• Learn to use the "looking for group" feature.. It will help you (as soon as ppl figure it out.. )Spamming the chat looking for groups work, but it's annoying to others..

• The maps are not as confusing as they seemed in the beginning.. they also turn transparent if you move while they're up.. Awesome.. Without that I would have gone insane..

• Learn the classes and the advanced form of them or you'll end up beginning from scratch alot..

• Make sure to use the search feature if you have trouble.. there are a lot of helpfull tips to be found there..

• Don't use the chat to vent issues about religion, sexuallity, politics or whether or not to eat meat.. It's bad topics and starts arguments that are not suited in a chat.. (did not do that, but some people seemed to use the chat as a breeding ground for hostility)

So there you go.. My two cents at the moment.. I'll return when I remember something else, right now, my brain is to tired...

Hugs..

WTF Bioware

Just browsed through the companions on STAR WARS: the old Republic and realised that romance wise, I'm fucked..

There were some nice options for the guys,

but as a girl you are left with these options..

If those are my options to a romance I say GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!!!

Seriously.. Where are the guys that look like this dude??

COME ON!!!! DO SOMETHING or I'm abandoning Bioware for good...

New York.. Just a few pics

Derek, me, Jordan and Lindah on Halloween

Wonderful and sweet Derek

Me and Lindah

In a cab in the City

Hmmm..

I feel a need to pop by Fresno... but noooo.. I don't have time for that this visit to the states..
I'll have to make that trip some other time..

=)

Love for Bioware

This is what I know about Bioware.

They make great games, with great stories and awesome fights..

This is what I've learned about Bioware:

They are amazing. The people who work at Bioware are kind and helpfull.
They have a great sense of humor and really love what they're doing..
If I had a project (no matter what) those are the kind of people I would hope was working on it..

I will never, ever forget the first computer I got.. It was in 1999, so I was late getting one..
A friend of mine brought over Baldurs Gate and wanted me to try it, after that I was hooked..

So for 12 years I have loved and stayed true to Bioware and after interacting with the people involved in the comapny, I feel I will never stop supporting them...

So thank you all for the wonderful time you've given me and so many others.
I can only hope our thanks and enjoyment will keep you from feeling the emptiness that comes with releasing a big project and realizing your work is done.. (almost, we still expect dlc's, lots and lots)

And to the people involved in Mass Effect... Your time is almost over, your work is nearing it's end..
You have worked hard on this project and I can only imagine the feeling of pride that must wash over you as it all comes together.. You have done an amazing job and I hate you all for not letting me know if Joker is an LI... Hahahahahahah..

No seriously.. I love you guys and girls... (even if you fuck up sometimes)


Thank you so much for everything..
