Right I've been playing for a few weeks now, level 28 jedi guardian (Tank spec).
Enjoying what I've been doing so far there are just a few niggles that could do with improving:
I would like a heroic teleport/transport system, whereby if you have a group for a heroic instance etc then you can summmon the rest of your group to the area thus saving a treck accross the map.
More customisation, i.e. addons and the ability to map my own abilities to ctrl+number rather than that of my companion (unless i'm missing a trick).
I also find hutt ball a bit irritating but the other battlegrounds seem pretty decent.
Lets see how this game stacks up once I ding 50.

Not been online for a few days, could someone elaborate
Patch Notes:
Classes and Combat
Combat Ability Responsiveness
Further improved response time for ability activation requests, especially in low-framerate situations.
The activation bar now appears at the correct time (when the activation of an ability begins) and disappears when activation is complete.
Instant combat abilities no longer occasionally start their combat animations twice, resulting in jerky behavior on the executing player's client.
The display of the floating text from instant healing abilities is no longer delayed by the animation on the client and now properly reflects the time the effect happens on the server.
Abilities on cooldown are now more easily distinguished from abilities that can be used.

I couldn't see the cooldown icons this evening, my screen was full of Tracer Missle smoke.
I'm either rolling a Bounty Hunter tomorrow, and filling my hot bar with one skill then spam it 24/7 in Hutt Ball, or I'm rolling Republic it's that bad.
Sorry, not a good evening.
Well I racked up 18 days playtime and I feel I have "completed" the game.
It was generally fun for the majority of the game but as you can tell I have ran out of "fun" content to keep myself entertained since I have gotten valor 65 (Highest req for items available)
Maxed out my companions and crafting.
Completed Nightmare Mode on endgame content but only for 8man as we struggle to get 16.
The game is fun but there are so many problems and new bugs coming out that make it a hassle to play.
All my friends have quit and all the new ones I make (30 or so on my friends list) I have literally 3 people online and 1 of them is a guy who I levelled with the whole way.
Rolling an alt is boring as I find myself skipping through the dialogue the second playthrough and it doesnt really appeal to me (Level 34)
PVP was my goal for engame but constantly imbalance, bugs, bad game design it really gets boring fast especially when I find myself logging on just to do the daily but that takes like 5 hours due to imbalance/exploits/lack of friends to play with.
Sadly I have 2month left but struggling to log onto daiys.
For anyone that is wondering about this game, it can be extremely fun in parts and amazing in others while stupid bugs and exploits can be at every turn. Whenever they "fix" something a new thing is broken that should really not have made it into the game or past testing. It feels very sloppy and unpolished yet in others feels amazing, huge let down consiering my original hype but 18days playtime from a game that feels very single player (Coop) is awesome in my eyes. Great value

Thing is, when so many people leave and they got worried, I half expect some radical and stupid changes. Let's see.... ;p
Edit:
Soo on Niman, I attempted my own guild which turned out a lot of people who would've played a lot, did not.
I joined another and we managed to do everything in NM but disbanded a mere what? two and half weeks later because they all went back to wow.
Remnants of this guild merged with another in attempts to run 16man but, turns out it's more casual than hardcore and people rarely log in.
Was thinking of applying for the last decent guild on the server and last night they disbanded.
I'm tempted to form a group of people I've guilded with and see if they'll decide to stick it out and try again.
As far as I can see, there's only 1 guild actively recruiting on the forums and on republic, they want a guardian tank, I used to be a guardian tank, I have all the gear, but I switched to DPS because tanking in pvp was so gimped, never any healers, I've been in a full ops group for pvp (24 players) and sat there at 10% hp until I got out of combat and had to heal myself
There's also the immortals but, not to fault them but aren't there too many to get a recurring raid spot/do they raid often?
I'm not interested in 2 raids a week, or limiting myself to HM (I always strive for top tier gameplay) but in a decade I have yet to find "that" guild who will jump from MMO to MMO and spank all content, you're very lucky if you do find one. On top of my previous gripes I need to find a guild quick before I cancel. They have to PVP often too.
I don't know if it's MMO vets, I stuck to anarchy online for 6 years non stop and played on and off from then, I can still jump in and play more than a month.
WoW I played for years as well.
SWTOR? We've barely pushed over a month and everyone around me is quitting, dropping out, bored, done it all, everything was too quick and easy.
Maybe it's me, it probably is, fatigued of the genre, but I still want to play but it requires finding at least 7 other people who want to play as much as I do, and almost impossible task.
I dislike it when people say "lol get some friends then and do stuff" it's simply not something you can do at the snap of your fingers.

Lighters, bloody hell man how much play time have you crammed in already??
Cancelling my subscription before Feb 21st. Got to 50, end game is quite boring and its all too buggy. No one is ever online and it just seems less social than I'd hope for in an MMO.
Not saying I didn't enjoy my time but my sentiment is in line with Lighters - although I haven't played as much as him.
Might come back in time if things become amazing, but that will take some time I think.

Proof that education in this country is doing an amazing job.
Anyway, I had massive hopes for this game being a Star Wars fan and ex SWG gamer etc etc, my only enjoyment comes now from logging on for an hour or so everynight and doing pvp with a small group of friends.
There is no reason to PVE after doing all normal and hardmodes I have seen and done it all. There is no reason to craft as crafted items are worth nothing and credits are worth even less and world PvP aka Illum is just broken and pointless as republic these days.
They really missed a trick with orange items, it was a really great idea. But then they forced all max level players into either the PvE or PvP sets and orange items going to waste.

Have the bounty hunters got hit with the Nerf stick yet?
Doing PVP last night with friends and as somone pointed out, the top 5 people in the damage were all bounty hunters :S
Stupid that somone can hit me 3 times and get me to 20%, no other class ive seen can it it
Apart from that its still enjoyable for me, only 46 and waiting on friends who are still leveling. Should do the 8man's when we'r all 50 and just created a new guild who have only around 20 members but 13 on most nights.

Doing PVP last night with friends and as somone pointed out, the top 5 people in the damage were all bounty hunters :S
Stupid that somone can hit me 3 times and get me to 20%, no other class ive seen can it it
Apart from that its still enjoyable for me, only 46 and waiting on friends who are still leveling. Should do the 8man's when we'r all 50 and just created a new guild who have only around 20 members but 13 on most nights.
Bioware should just remove every class apart from the Sage/Sorc from the game, they already take up 80% of the population and it's easy to see why

Will probably be spending a great deal of time in there myself in the next few days - just bought myself a Razer Nostromo to go with the Naga I bought last year
Have the bounty hunters got hit with the Nerf stick yet?

My Gunslinger (level 29) can take someone out in 4 moves pretty much!! It's all about positioning with them and can be LoS'd - otherwise they are animals, much like snipers!

It's great, I just wished my mouse had more buttons.
I need more keybinds!!
