Been watching a few old vidoes of ours from back in the day (Niman server was still live and going strong then)

It's this kind of Video
that's keeps making me want to go back! er scuse the voice :eek:

We had huge fun doing this was a nightly thing for about 3 months then the Dev's in the infinite wisdom killed it off, and for me the game never seemed to recover.

Think I may just re-sub for a month or so and have some fun, the guild still going, though pretty quite now but I check every now and then and there are a few active players. ..any one keen to come back and do a bit of damage!

Though this time may reform or restart the Sith Guild not sure if that's still up as a idiot got leadership and ripped the bank off, then disbanded it. ( I did later reform it but did nothing with it. ..by later I mean several months or even over a year later)

I know its a old-ish game now with many many issue's/faults, but there not been a lot better out since!!

Well drop a post here if there is any interest!!
 
I installed it again yesterday to have another bash now that my WoW scratch has been itched.

I play Alliance on The Red Eclipse server and although I'm in a guild it's very quiet during the day which is the best time for me to play.

Just playing on a preferred account at the moment to see if it pulls me back in and if it does then I'll sub for a bit.
 
The tacked-on endgame story mode didn't really do it for me, felt completely out of place in an MMO. Plus it wasn't particularly interesting - a capital crime from Bioware.

Think best times for people online was anywhere from 4pm to around 11pm GMT, funny enough if there is no Sith guild left on our old server I will reform on RE.

Can't disagree there, once through was not bad but if you ran ur alts through it was just painful!
 
I have to admit I never even got through it once. There was a bit where they were all on the ship, fixing stuff with this awful "We're all working together!" type music in the background. That was it for me :D

Still play from time to time on lower level alts though, or start a new toon. Just for the fun early levels.
 
It's a better game than it was at the start but the way it's now mostly story isn't for everyone. Ilum is also done, you won't see any open world PvP like in that video anymore.

Leveling is ridiculously quick now so alts aren't an issue.
 
I used to just play it for the arena PvP which was great when the Bounty Hunter was totally OP :p The instances and levelling became tedious for me, shame as it had great potential.

Funny you mention that, for me the ship repair and the very first part of the new story (fighting on the damaged then exploding ship) was the hardest parts to get through, I also disliked the swampy part, but had great fun there killing Siths

Aye I know all this I have played twice since the old Ilum days, last time was for about 6/7 months and that was maybe 4 months ago now.

The new story part is just painful even if its quite quick its still very painful!

But the Ops and the PvP was not bad till the last patch where now there is a flagging system, so have no idea how that works but I guess not great, will treat the game as a PvE game now.
 
Ok had to clear up a few things before I could restart playing this game, thinking of creating a character on The Red Eclipse - Sith Empire, would like to start from level 1 with the new dark/light side changes.

But ..only gonna give this a go if find a few more who want to level as a group, really not into solo play now ...if it goes ok may see if I can get some old members to re-join, but will wait and see.

If things go well could move one or two of my other character across so will have funds and high level crafting.
 
Our guild gave up on swtor to join WOW for legion.

Well that was the idea but really people went their own ways, we've been at the same game for 5 years already.

Technically my 4th swtor guild it was probably the most successful 16m endgame raiding guild.

But they screwed us, we were a raiding guild and there's only so many times you can do the same raid over the years due to them killing off any development of new operations.

Anyway with veterans leaving the hardest raids become less accessible especially the 16m modes which were not that easy to keep a raid team for in the first place.
 
I played it for a few months at the beginning of this year. Re-subbed to do the new storyline. Honestly, i wish it was more of a single player game (so less of the grind and silly point to point missions). I do find some of the content to be interesting, but not enough to play it more than a few months at a time. I've never tried to the PVP side of it (never particularly enjoyed PvP in MMOs, except planetside and SWG).

I'm pretty similar tbh, (except I love the PvP) I only play a few moths at a time I guess if I do go back (depends if others join) will only be up to 6 months max, before I need a break again. (but nothing written in stone)

Last time I played it was for around 4 months maybe 5, and was fun while it lasted, just gets a bit tedious after a while, I did enjoy the guild activities, where they had the weekly contests to conquer planets and you had to do various guild related quests, we won quite a few, which was great as we were all new back in the game, and most were new to the guild.

Always said SwT:oR has the worst f2p model ever seen, well by me at least!
 
I am still playing and enjoying SW:TOR, although getting a bit burnt out at the moment (and recently acquired The Elder Scrolls Online).
I think that the introduction of adaptive gear had killed the game for many, you feel that there is little achievement in collecting gear at low levels.
The game needs greater imagination than this Fallen Empire storyline, however, as a subscriber, I do like the idea of new chapter content appearing.
One idea to make the game stand out amongst the mmo crowd, could be a way of having cross-pathed missions or chapters, where your alternative characters are brought in and become part of the storyline. I would like to see my dark Agent character have a quest to hunt down some of my other characters, or my Jedi Sentinel acting as npc to give advice or missions to another Jedi toon.
The game has a legacy system, so why not make use of it and make the universe a bit more believeable.
I like the space battles, they give a bit of a break from the usual running around, but would it be great if you could have lethal land vehicles? Speeder races or battles in stomping Walkers?
Personally, I don't play PvP, but I do enjoy co-op missions.
 
Since ESO came out, swtor feels not so good. I log from time to time to do the new storyline but that's how far it goes.
Is repetitive and kinda boring now, but mainly the graphics are crap. ESO is much more beautiful game to enjoy.

On top you must have a sub or the f2p is very restrictive.

Bioware should start swtor2. Learn from mistakes and use a damn good engine.
Sw battlefront engine if possible (frostbite)
 
Well I created a new character today Bloody'nine Sith inquisitor on The red Eclipse, if anyone is keen to join add me, if not I guess more Civ 4 for me then :p

I will not do any quests bar the first one where you have to be solo, so will be level 1 or 2 max.

Be nice if we can get a group of 4 and try set a time to play daily/nightly what ever suits as I'm home for a bit now.

We have Ts3 etc, can move a few characters across to help with money/crafting etc.

Well lets see if we have any additions if we do will re create Dark immortals guild, or maybe its time for a new guild name.....

I'm on the Red Eclipse but only playing Republic. I'm on most days but not so much at night. In a guild but hardly see anyone during the day and maybe only a couple at night but hoping this changes with the upcoming expansion.
