*****Official Star Wars: The Old Republic Thread*****

Let's also hope the "september beta weekend" clients can be used for pre-order etc,but unlikely considering they had a new roll out on Jul 20/21? and everyone had to download the whole thing again.

Not an issue for me though, actual unlimited download limit, but it'll take a while on 8Mb. :/


The best service in the country is virgin media isnt it? and the best server with them at the moment is 50mb which isnt capped at all?

I've been with them forever, currently I've got 30mb, its fast enough to download anything but I can only download so much through day otherwise I get capped for 5 hours, think once I got over 10gigs my speed goes to 8mb for 5 hours which sucks, which is why I just wait till 9pm and then download so I can download at my maximum speed without being capped.

I've never heard of any other service in the country other then VM's 50mb that has uncapped 24/7.

I'm going to switch to 50mb in a few months time and then they're bringing out 100mb soon too I believe.

EDIT: I just did a test - It takes exactly 2 hours 40 mins to download 40GB...I reckon for those that have the DVD/blueray when installing it will prob takes 25 mins or something daft like wow.

Are they releasing it on blueray and DVD?

Some places already have the 100mb. Mine is being upgraded to the 100mb in early Sept.

Nice, I already really appretiate 30mb, so I can't imagine 50mb or 100mb, I'd be quite happy to stay on 30mb for next few years, it's going to get to a point soon where we got extra speed we dont need, surely?

EDIT: It is only VM with uncapped isnt it? 50mb and above? my mate has VM 50mb and he cant download through day without being capped...but I didnt think there was any sort of ADSL service or anything like that...Also I havent kept up the times, in my head I'm still thinking of all those ADSL services as really rubbish from 10 years ago LOL...just because you used to have to dial up and slow speeds and disconnections...is it still like that for them?

As far as I'm concerned, theres only one real broadband service in the UK and thats VM, never had a problem with customer service side either.

Ditto.

At least I stopped downloading rubbish since I'm capped during the day.
 
CaptainRAVE or Elevon, any of you played sith inquisitor? (assassin maybe?)

I went Sith Warrior and specialised into a Marauder (think that is right).

I also had a Sith Inquisitor, although didn't level this one too far and also a Jedi Consular.

I found the Sith much more fun to play - they actually get stuff done :) (although at times I did feel guilty about some of the darker decisions I made).

I did find that by playing the Jedi, you find out a lot more about their history and the creation of the order.

What level was your highest character? And what level was your SI?
And like I asked Elevon, got some screens/vids or skill/talent information about them?
 
I played:
Sith Warrior (maurader advanced class): Got him to lvl 12 and left him as thats what im gonna play in the release so didnt wanna spoil it for myself.

Jedi Knight (sentienal advanced class): Really good fun played a flashpoint (best mmo experience for me) and got him to lvl 14.

Got my Collectors Edition on preorder and cant wait to get stuck in. I shall try and book a few days off work for this:D
 
I got a Knight to 36, Commando to 24, Bounty Hunter to 14 and Sith Inquisitor to 11.

I was planning on playing a Sith Warrior but having seen both sets of animations, I'm going to play Knight.

Out of the 4 classes, Commando was by far the most OP. DPS class with heals...
