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

I was wondering whether forcing AA works, as i have a configuration in my CCC that i use for every game, and games look stunning. I think i will buy this game, but only if it's available for £30 and depending on the subscription price.

I guess you not going to be playing it then :p
 
The music is VERY star wars.

If that's what you like about star wars you will love it.

I played Jedi Consular to level 14 and took the Sage route.

I have some videos of me doing the essels instance.

Likewise, mind sharing that vid dude?
 
Are people still getting beta invites? I really want one to test the game, I already have my preorder in just give me a beta key so I get get some training in and learn what class I wanna play :(
 
From what I've gathered reading the official forums is that they're sending out a "big wave" of beta invites for EU people this week. This is to join the standing beta that the US has been running for ages. I think EU beta weekends come later.

The EU community manager said we should be getting info about it sometime today. So fingers crossed.
 
I got mine for less and so did plenty other people tho now its all high prices as they have had great demand.

So do you reckon they were shocked by the demand and therefore increased the price of the game?

And if so, then I guess that means the game is selling really well, better then they had hoped or expected which is great news all round! :D
 
Update from the EU Community Manager

http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=8885761&posted=1#post8885761

As promised, we have an update on the batch of Game Testing invites being sent to players in the EU.

After a lengthy discussion here at the BioWare offices, the decision has been made to postpone the proposed Game Testing invites for EU players for a number of reasons.

Firstly, there’s a new build of the game on the horizon. This is a major build, meaning there will be character wipes and a new client to download. As you may be aware, the current client download is around 27GB in size. If we were to invite players en masse today, those players would have to download the entirety of the client to access the game. There’s every chance that later this week, the service will go offline and this new version will be rolled out, meaning everyone currently in Testing will have to not only download the entire client again (another 27GB download), but will also have their characters erased and have to start afresh. This is a relatively large amount to download in such a short space of time and not an experience we want new testers to be exposed to.

Secondly, this new build will bring about the first localised versions of Star Wars: The Old Republic, which means those of you that speak French and German will have the chance to play the game in those languages, for the first time ever. We’re extremely excited to be able to offer this to our players and as such, we’re keen to get a lot of feedback from European testers in particular.

For those of you that may have missed the messages we put out on the subject already, last week saw a number of issues arise with key systems that prevented us from sending out invites to EU players. Had everything gone to plan, we would have been able to offer two weeks of testing time to new users. However, given the issues that arose, this was physically not possible.

So while we understand that this news may not be what a lot of you wanted to hear today, we hope that you’ll understand our position. Given the news of this new build, it’s now more important than ever that we invite European players into the Game Testing environments, so you have my word that this batch of invites will happen, it may just mean you just have to wait a little longer.

It’s also important to remember this is just the beginning. In the future, we’ll be inviting more and more testers to the EU Game Testing environments as well as future Game Testing weekends. So even if you’re not invited to this next round of testing, there will still be plenty of chances to get involved.

As ever, as soon as I get any firm news around the matter, I’ll make sure to update everyone.
