arknor, you have clearly played even fewer MMOs than most then, because TOR is not even close to being the least complete - try Champions Online, Star Trek Online, APB...the list goes on and on. Most of your recent posts in this thread reveal how naive you actually are when it comes to MMOs tbh.
Tummy seems to have presented one of the most fair and balanced responses to TOR tbh.
first beta weekend was like that and people actually grouped up and talked to each other it felt like an mmo because you even saw other people around you...You lot would be whining a lot more if every mob spawn was camped & you were queuing for quest objectives
Can't please everybody.

Okay me and my friend have both just rolled republic on Niman if immortals are still recruiting?

Almost agreed but you like the swtor Dev's missed the point that this is supposed to be a mmo, problem is its feels very much more like a RPG hiding in a MMO universe.The crying and bitching over the past few pages is just pathetic. If you do not enjoy the game, then don't play it. You don't need to fight with other people and announce to us that you have cancelled your subscription - I'm sure that like me, nobody else cares what you do.
Let me just clear something up though, because some people seem to be having problems with it. This game is a MMORPG, standing for Massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG.) I have seen the game compared to Skyrim. Why? Skyrim is a single player Role Playing Game (RPG.)
The mere fact that you haven't personally seen many players doesn't change the fact that SWTOR is a MMORPG. You may not have seen many players due to several reasons, be it server population, time of day or simply because of instancing. Comparing this game to Skyrim, or even WoW is just redundant and shows nothing but ignorance.
and the point he made is that if you hate this so much and want to try WoW why don't you go to the WoW Cataclysm thread and ask your questions there rather than continue to cry here. You don't like Swtor, we get it so please stop wasting your time in this thread.
The only loading screens are when you switch planets/instances really.
The planets are fairly wide open after Nar Shaddaa or so (not sure what order Imperials do the planets in) but the wide openness is definately adding to the feeling of there not being many players around.
Lots of conflicting views!
The only thing I'm worried about is the fact that I was hoping for a huge, open world with little loading times where you can run into large amounts of players just going about the game. Pretty much the WoW type of MMO. Although I don't think it's right to say 'WoW type' MMO - I think it just is an MMO and how they should be. Anything less (like guild wars) doesn't feel like an MMO to me since when I played that everything was instanced outside of a city.
So is this how it is? o:
No.
But for £40 why not just give it a go anyway?
It's useless mate they just keep repeating themselves like broken record players.I don't think they understand that nobody cares if they think the games is crap.
Imperials would do Nar Shaddaa at the same point as Republic, they'd just do Balmorra when you do Taris. After that I think the next few are both factions there at the same time.
