Still not enough incentive for me to get into this.

I think you said the same thing about BF1942 :p

I don't recall ever saying that about BF1942, as BF1942 doesn't charge a monthly fee to play.

Visc, you realise you'll still have to play the "sucktastic" SWG (Which you seem to have played for months while disliking it) to do the space expansion? :)

It'll get better. Eventually. I was looking forward to living in my ship and cruising the galaxy.

starport time is minimal. I'll be spending 99% of my time in space with Yogs wasting noobs in X-Wings who don't how to fly and yelling such gay things into teamspeak as "they're coming in! three marks at two ten."

This almost makes me want to play SWG.

I'm a big time fan of X-wing Alliance, TIE Fighter, X-Wing, and the various classic space fighter games (Star Lancer, etc).

Does SWG contain RP servers? I don't want to put up with the guy in an X-wing saying, "Yo d00d ur such a nibbling check out my mad skillzzzzz make ur time."

I might just hold out for WoW.

no pure RP servers unfortunately, though some servers are known for having a higher amount of RPers, just not the server I'm on (Chilastra). Gorath, I believe, has a lot of RPers. Or does Gorath have a lot of Germans? I forget :huh

What Chilastra has lots of RPers and great players. Chiana for example.

Darth Viscera
Apr 25th, 2004, 05:47:02 PM
eh, chiana could be better. I had to point out to her that she could, in fact, make short vests.

Travis North

She is better. What if you had to deal with constant clothing orders, being a mayor of an active city, being the event coordinator of a city and a PA, and being a wedding coordinator.

Darth Viscera

If I had to be a wedding coordinator, I'd shoot myself in the scrotum. the idea of marrying characters played by 13 year olds in the star wars universe is appalling.

Chiana: do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
bride 1: lol ya
Chiana: and do you take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?
bride 2: OMG I DOE!! <3

I wouldn't expect much RP out of the battle.net populace either.

Yeehaa! Well, looks like this'll get me back in the game. :D

Visc... I'm coming aboard to live on your ship! (Just be sure to give me my own bathroom :p)

Oh, and I'll be in an X-Wing, though hopefully not one Yog's is blowing up. O_o


Oh, and for those of you that are "freaked" out about paying a monthly fee... now you don't really have to. They're selling "phone cards" for SWG. Pay $30 up front (assuming you have the money), and get 3 or 4 months play time. This way you don't have to give em your credit card number or have it on auto-pay or what have you.

I'm still not seeing the value in paying that much for MMORPG gaming. There isn't enough value for me.

yeah, it is expensive, which sucks

rie, half bath. no shower or tub in yours :mischief
I'll just have to avert my eyes and buy you towels
